First thing I noticed about this game was the file download size for this game; it's a whopper for a casual game, and especially considering it's not a CE.

I've only played the demo for a half an hour so far but am quite impressed with the game. This game requires quite a bit of thought and the first puzzle I encountered was neat. smile

No technical problems for me. I'm on Windows XP SP3 and have a decent video card and 2 GB of RAM. I would strongly urge that all try before buying, though, as I think there's a good chance that this game might not perform well on older computers.

I will also add that I'm very glad the walkthrough is up (thank you, Ana!) but hope that I won't need to use it too often. grin

I have XP SP3 also but I don't think I have enough memory to have the game running and also connect to the internet, in order to see the walkthrough, it causes problems with the game.

So, in order to see the walkthrough and not have so much memory used, I selected page on upper toolbar and selected send page by e-mail, and the walkthrough comes up in an e-mail.

That way all I have open is an e-mail and not the whole internet explorer.

Seems to work, for now.

Is this the blue charm stone, carlahelp?

If so:

Click to reveal..
Click on the music note on the statue of the dolphin (after you have fixed the other statue with the harp string).


I haven't gotten this far into the game yet, so if this isn't what you were asking about, let's wait for Ana or someone else who can help. wave

carla, you need to click on the water breathing circle around the scarab in the lower right to see the ingredient list for the water breathing charm so you can see what you are missing. You won't find the spell, you have to make it.

How do I make it with what I've got? I have a list of things but the only things it shows I need is the coral, dried flowers blue stone but not the water breathing charm.



I got it Ana. I clicked on the scarab and the test came right up. Thanks a lot.

THe water breathing charm is not something you find. It is made automatically when you collect all the ingredients. THere is a blue stone (not a water breathing stone) that you need.

You can see that stone here in the walkthrough screenshot. You need to complete the harp first and get the the fish to sing.

Excellent! When the scarab glows blue you completed the charm. Have fun, I really enjoyed this game.

Flo - I copy a few (or all) the pages of the walkthru to MS Word - that way I can have the game and the walkthru running at the same time. It has the extra advantage of being able to use 'search' to look for something specific

I have a question about the Windows key - is it the same as AltTab? some games send up a warning that AltTab may cause 'issues'. If so, would the Windows key have the same effect?

I hate that word 'issues' - is it a euphemism for problems? If so, why don't they just say 'problems'?

Alt/Tab is different from the windows key. On your keyboard in between the ctrl and alt there should be a key with a windows logo on it.

They do two different functions so the reaction is usually different. If one causes trouble it does not necessarily mean the other does.

I played the game again (the BF one) and my mouse still froze a few times, not as much as the Namco version of it.

I checked the forum and a lot of people are having the same problem. As least I know it's not just MY computer. I hope they can fix this.

I did the beta on this one and loved it, couldn't wait for it to come out. Only thing I seem to have noticed, I have reached the spinx and you can't go back to previous bits and maybe you're not supposed to but I could in all the bit's previously? Just puzzled anyway I have picked up the grasshoppers leg and the scorpion and the red charm stone and I realised the disc on the scarab in the bottom right corner hasn't lit up, I thought it shouldbe glowing by now or am I wrong? I have the walkthrough but it doesn't actually say. Also I am unable to move on the Task thingy says activate the strength charm which I can't and I need to put the leg back on the grasshopper. Any clues?

Update: SPOILER
Don't you just love it, the moment you ask the question you start to solve it.
Guess you don't need to go back further than the spinx, I went back to the two doors available to me then back to the middle where I put the fly and the 'recipe' was on the floor in front of the middle door. I am now feeling silly and all of my 58 years. lol
Happy gaming
Inge

Glad you found it. THe walkthrough does state when to activate each charm when it's time to use it.

I've always used the Windows key, haven't tried alt/tab. I know some games won't work with Windows key.

I tried copying to Word, but it didn't seem to want to work. Maybe because I was trying to copy the whole walkthrough.

I'm going to see if alt/tab works better.

I couldn't even get the BF version to load. It froze on the menu screen. The Namco version loaded with no problems. And I haven't noticed the cursor sticking yet.

Odd.

Flo,

I copy the Walkthrus to MS Word all the time, it just takes a few minutes, depending on the size of the Walkthru. You may have noticed that when you switch to the page that has the walkthru on it; it will take a minute or two for it to display (while it loads all of the screen shots). Well the same thing happens while it is being copied into Word. You can hold down the shift key while you left click at the beginning of the part you want to copy and then scroll down to where it ends (keeping the shift key held down) and left click again. That will highlight all of what you want. You can then right click anywhere in the highlighted text and select copy from the menu that pops up. Left click in an open MS Word blank document and press Crtl-V (the two keys together). You may get a message from Word telling you that you are coping a number of different styles and do you want to use normal instead; just click yes and it will copy just fine.

The Walkthrus are my saftey-net! Often just knowing I have one to fall back on gives me that little extra push to solve the puzzle on my own. Usually when I buy a game I get a copy of the Walkthru at the same time. Have also found that reading the general information given at the beginning of the Walkthru is more helpful to me than those given (or NOT given) by the game itself. Just some thoughts from an "old" man.


Happy Gamming All,
OldMan44

Thanks, I'll remeber that for the next time.

I did manage to copy all the text from my e-mail and paste to Word. No pictures, but if I need a picture I'll go to the site.

So, now I have a printed WT in case I need a nudge in the right direction. I can play the game without any problems because it's the only thing running.

Oh dear. No problem installing but as soon as I pass the screen that says Big Fish I get spooky music - and a black screen.
Is it the game ? I updated all my bits & bobs for Dire Grove so I know I am up to date with drivers etc
