May I ask a question about one of the free games here, it's 5 days a stranger & I believe it's an Action Adventure game ? also, the forum for free games/5das blocks my attempts to sign up ??

Hi Boolie,

The game's website states that it is an adventure game with a horror theme. If you're currently playing and stuck, post your question and I'm sure you'll get an answer. smile

I'm not sure which forum you're referring to, as regards signing up? Best to contact the site directly.

Did you already take a look at Len Green's walkthrough HERE?

Make sure that you have read the green, red and blue books, and also the cutting Phil gave you, and the newspaper.
Did you also read the occult book in the library?

It might shake something loose if you go back to a saved game near the beginning of Day Three and replay exactly by the walkthrough. Let's wait for help from someone who's played the game meanwhile. luck

is there a way to change the subject matter on this post? I should have posted it as 5DAS but wasn't sure

If possible, try not to give up - it would be a pity.
I remember that this was VERY tricky and that very many players have had the same trouble as you.
I can't remember what triggers it - I only know for certain that it can be done.

Boo, can this be of help:
Click to reveal..
Q. I'm in the basement; where's Matthew's body?

Use the detector and it will indicate towards the exact area of floor you need to be
standing on. Once it is found, the area of floor in question can be interacted with.



Since there was no mention of a detector in your posts, hope this can help.

Please let us know if you succeed - or maybe I shouild say when you succeed since one way or another, although very tricky, it obviously can be cracked.

In that case it would be vbery helpful to post here what you did exactly in order to succeed since many people have been held up at exactly this point - and others will quite likely follow and your experience can help greatly. wink

Boo, assuming that you have done and read everything prior to this point, do this:

Click to reveal..
below the chain on the north wall, see 3 lines on the floor coming from the east wall.

Step at the very end of the most south line. Look at the detector and it should say "straigt down". LOOK at your feet the see "AREA". Then USE this AREA


Good luck. luck

Thanx again Chief, I did read your msg & retried the stick, cord, bear indicator, but it has always just hung down. I must have missed doing something what it is I don't know, I've gone over everything in my inventory & still ?/

Boo, did you dip that combo in salt in the kitchen to get salty bear + stick and then this combination over Matthew's bed as said in the black book from the library (white in Inventory)

EDIT: I can send you saves if you want. I would think that it would work.
