I just started this and aready I'm having prioblem, I have the map and need to find the police station. Problem is I don't know which bulding is the station and just clicking on them does nothing,

Jen

Jen, did you click first on the Whitechapel area in the map (after you picked it up) and then the police station?

Have fun with this good game.

Chief :wave12:

Thanks, Chief.

The police station is situated on the left side of the Whitechapel Street map, and is identified by a tiny round button - hover your cursor over the button and a label pops up.

nevermind, I got it about 5 mins after I wrote for help. But I am at the point i need to be at Holme's worktable and click where it says "use this document as proof" I did select Testimony of A,. Cadosch but nowhere does it say that. What did I miss?

Jen

Did you click on the board with strings, which is on the wall to the left of Holmes' worktable? That will take you into a close-up view of the board, and you should be able to select and use the documents then.

Am I even correct as to the location of the worktable where the science equip. is?

Jen

Holmes' worktable is at the corner of the room close to the window and yes - with microscope, etc...
So look left of that table on the wall as Rushes stated.
See a board with strings. Look close.
Then open your documents folder (try right click).

Okay, I got it. Now I just met Watson's friend in the hospital and I have the anatomy book. I need to do the heart puzzle but whenever I go to do it Watson says he's missing something. What is he missing?

Jen

Did you get the message from the trolley wheel?

Be sure to click on the blackboard with the drawing of the heart.

Yeah, I got the message and I did click on the blackboard but if that's the answer, I don't get it.

Jen

That message stated: The magnet is in the heart, use this board and erase it afterwards.

So you click on the board to verify that you read the board.
That drawing of the heart on the blackboard is a clue to help you when you follow the the message: The magnet is in the heart...

thank you so much. I don't think this game can be played without a WT. It's too involved. Now I'm in the pet shop but can't find the cage with the tight mesh. Do I need it? I found the 2 loose ones

Jen

The cage with the tight mesh is on one of the cabinets to the left of the main door. You do need it to be able to secure the snake.

thank you. can someone help me with the encoded message that watson found? I'm having a real hard time understanding it,.

Did you select the two correct documents that will help you decode the message? Once selected, you'll see letters appear at the bottom of the screen, and you can begin the puzzle.

The message is in Roman Numerals, but the lower half of the numerals are missing to make things trickier.

Click on a letter on the red bar at the bottom and then click on the empty frame above the associated Roman numeral on the page.

Thanks Rushes - for you - :tweety:

Aww, that's cute. Thank you.

I did select the 2 documents and they appear at the top of the codes. Also, what I see doesn't seem to be red but the same color as the desk. Is that it? I also don't have any letter appearing. I'm using the WT that MaGrRo put out to the letter. I don't know what I missed.

Jen

Jen,

I vaguely recall that another gamer has the same problem. It seems that her screen was too large.
It cut off the red part at the bottom when the 2 correct documents were selected.
See if selecting another screen resolution would work for you. It us under options- video at main menu.

I had it on the lowest setting and I still can't see any letters. This game is on Vista, Could that be the problem? It is the video resolution that needs changing isn't it? I"m not good with computers

Jen

Try the higher settings on resolution and see.

I went through every one of the settings and never could see any letters. Is there no hope for me?

Jen

I'll send you a saved game with the puzzle completed. On its way now.

Try my email address without a capital first letter.

Jen
