Dracula Origin. My fiance and I quote Van Helsing all the time. "There, perfect. On to the next step." "I am in need of something." "This might be useful. I am taking it."

Lol! I was afraid I was going to have to haul the rolling ladder out of my pocket. Good going, venus!

Gil.

you know - that game is my next up to play !
and i just stabbed w/the guess ,since i haven't played that one either ! i better get going ,i guess . venus - i can just hear you saying those things !but my bil shops and says those exact things ,too - it's sooo funny !

You're in for a helluva game, niteowl. Just don't fall out of your chair laughing in the library!

Gil.

Next time I'll pay attention to the quotation marks.

Thanks, traveler. Yes, that ladder in his pocket caused quite a reaction here as well.

Okay, Becky, here are some quotation marks. This should be another easy game overall.

Clue 1: "Something's casting these shadows. Something very, very close!"

it's a mammoth.



uh-huh.



must be.

Sorry, niteowl, still no mammoths.

Clue 2 (another quote, which may give it away ): "A solid wooden plinth."

Broken Sword: Angel of Death?

No, sorry, Becky. Haven't gotten to that point in the Broken Sword series yet, so I don't know if they mention plinths or not. I do notice that they mention them in a lot of games, but it seemed to start with this game. Unless you count GK1, which was ahead of its time anyway.

Okay, here is another quote. It is regarding a refrigerator our main character comments on. I found it very insightful.

Clue 3: "On the outside, it seems totally normal, but on the inside, it's ice cold."

Bump! Another clue is needed please
Venus

Sorry, chrissie, I was just waiting for a guess because I didn't want to double post. Next clue coming up.

This one will be my last quote clue. I guess no one else found these quotes as classic as I did , so I will switch to regular clues if no one guesses it after this one.

Clue 4: This quote is in reference to a radiator. "It burbles quietly."

martin mystere ?

No, not that one.

Okay, here are two clues for the price of one.

Clue 5: Part 1 - The first quote in clue 1 about the very, very close shadow was referencing a key. The character commenting on it delivered it as though he was in a horror game. I guess he finds keys very frightening.

Part 2 - In this game you will have to create a make-shift brailer. Does anyone actually know what a "brailer" is?

Yes, I remember that word.

But it is not in my small French-English dictionary. I think MaG invented that word.

The game is Secret Files: Tunguska.

Chief

Chief.

A brailer is a scoop or net. A long stick with a net at one end. You usually use it for fishing. But when I was a child eons ago - we use it to get ripe fruits on top of tall trees.

Nothing beats fun experiences.

Chief

Yep, that's it, Chief. Your turn.

MaG, I actually knew what a brailer was, but that's only because I looked it up after playing the game. It's a rather obscure reference to include in an adventure game, and you're putting together a "make-shift brailer" on top of that. Not to mention the plinth and the burbling radiator.

But that's okay, I love this game for its quirkiness. I still can't get over how Max nervous sounded about that shadowy key.

Very good clues for that game, Venus. Lucky for me you got the word brailer out.


Ok. In this game and in one of the worlds visited, you will do three puzzles.

First clue: a shell puzzle

Chief

Aura II?

Nope, not that game.

Why not a second clue: a pipe puzzle


Chief

Clue #3: ropes puzzle


Chief

Destination: Treasure Island?

Sorry Becky, not that one. This game is older.

Clue #4: you play the role of a tomb robber.


Chief

Is it Sentinel?
