I am not planning on writing one. The developer has a walkthrough for sale. Please post if you have any questions, please post and those that are playing might help you.

Is this the turning on of the projector?

If so:
- open the back of the compartment. See a cylindrical protrusion.
- Place the device found in the ticket booth on the cylinder thing. This opens the progector.
- Now you will see uellow tiles.
----Arrange the tiles to make a solid black line from lower left corner to upper right. luck

No I'm sorry MaG. It's the work schedule puzzle with the names of the employees, their duties, etc. I have some hints from the items in the room, but can't complete it. I also have a final solution by Len green, but I would like some explanation. Thanks again.

This puzzle takes 3 pages of explanation in the companion book. Since I have not played the game yet, I can't give you the synopsis.
What I can get is you have to remember the clues and enter them in that chart.
Try it and see from the clues.

Its a logic puzzle, and the explanation does indeed take a long time.
There is a folder in the office that tells you about logic puzzles and how to use the grid to plot all the connections. That should help if you have never done one. It steps you through all the reasoning involved in an actula puzzle.

Thanks Rushes. I can't even find the cupboard in the projection room that has a book inside explaining these types of puzzles. All I see is a cabinet, which I can't get into.

FJT,

From the companion: Go back to the theater office and check the binder on the desk. wave

Hi MaG. What do you mean, "from the companion?"

Hi FJT,

MaG is referring to the game's companion guide/walkthrough. It's not an object in the game. smile

The binder that will teach you how to solve the slider puzzle is NOT found in a cabinet in the projection room. It is found in the theater's office, which is backstage. On the desk in the office is a blue binder. This has the info you need. smile

Thanks. I found it. But it wasn't for the slider puzzle, but for the work schedule logic puzzle, which I was looking for.

Hi FJT,

Yes, the method you should use to solve the work schedule logic puzzle is found in a blue binder in the theater office. It teaches you how to solve logic puzzles.

Alternatively, you can look at this link, which also explains the process, in a method similar to the binder in the game: http://www.pennydellpuzzles.com/upload/documents/How%20to%20Solve%20Logic%20Problems.pdf

Thank you CBSection31. I'll try attacking that puzzle again. Are you playing the game, by the way? And if you are, did you happen to save it at the completion of that puzzle, just in case I need a saved game from you, if you would be so gracious to send me one.

Thanks again,
FJT

I don't have a save game FJT but I can give you the answer to the puzzle if you really get stuck.
That might be preferable - a save game might have solved other things you haven't yet done.

Hi flotsam. That would be great. I'll look forward to receiving it from you. Also, did you happen to solve that "You must have hope" puzzle. I got almost all the way through it, but the vowel commands and the way it was phrased kind of threw me. Is there a logical saying at the end of this?

Thanks again,
FJT

It definitely is challenging, I admit. smile

I wanted to make a game that was close in style (and difficulty) to games from the early and mid-90s, like Myst and The 7th Guest.

Don't hesitate to ask if you need more help! smile

Yes CBSection31, I remember Myst very well. That's how I lost all my hair (just kidding). You have certainly matched that game in difficulty. And I have much less hair now than I did in the '90's.
