Stuck with Carol Reed at Turnip Range

Please help: what to do at the green shed?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Chief, have you looked in your journal at the objectives and the hints to see what it says at this point in the game?

Marian, thanks for your help.

But I still do not know what to do.

I think I need a little push.

Chief there is a green shed I was stuck there also there are 2 if im correct one is a porta potty I think ? where she sahe she does not have to (pee) and Yes there is one more Green Shed keep looking Hope that helped a lil

We seem to be stuck at the same place, have u figured it out yet? The only thing u can do at the green shed is pee lol
I'm trying to find some clues about the anniversery date too, no luck there either

Chief and Gibby check your lil notepad if it keeps telling you a certain spot that means you have not throughly checked that area out , ....entirely.... also I would see Biggy and maybe you need more chores to do ?

Thank you for your help Leeana.

And to GameBoomers Gibby.

On objective it says explore the turnip shooting range and that I will find a green shed. I found the outdoor loo and another green(ish) shed with a padlock that I can't do anything with. I've been walking all over and pressing space to see if I missed a spot, so far nothing

Yes I was circling the area going crazy also .... there must have been one right or left you did not take I would circle and keep checking gets a lil drustrating but Im sure You will fing it I did Chin up .....Gibby, Marian I will try to keep helping as long as i Can .... Keep going Gibby you made it that far keep looking

Thanks Marian I finally found the right shed

Stuck at the same green sheds! Mikael has really done it this time, it's a real puzzler. I've come across target range with numbered targets which seem to relate to the phone but no clue how to use them.

Glad to hear it, Gibby! If you have any help to offer the other folks here who are stuck, any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I hope you are all enjoying the game so far. Until a walkthrough goes up, I have no real suggestions to offer other than to consult the journal and the hints. I have played the game but it was a while ago and I cannot remember all of the details now.

Bristol when you see the numbered targets take one (or two) step(s) forward toward them and you will find a path to the right, the green shed that you need to find is there

Is there only one shoothing range?

I'm completely lost with those numbers:2017, 11,20, 25.

I need a big help.

Thanks, Gibby, will try after supper!

ok I was Good up until now saw stina she gave me directions to Amos s house? its not on my map and I have come to a Brick wall now I dont know where to go Help Please Thank You ,,,,,,

There's a short instruction on how to find the green shed in the hint. But that can also, sort of, lead to the "toilet". Just keep in mind that the green shed is not the "toilet". I guess that the toilet could be considered a small shed, and it is indeed green. It didn't strike my mind when I wrote the hints.

Mikael, thanks so much for dropping in and helping out our stuck players here. Leeana and Chief still need assistance, I believe.

Hi Chief. Numbers

I'm stuck at the bunker. I have the numbers from the blue note but the codeblock didn't accept it.

update: found out that I have other things to do first.

Nice to see you, Margaret! I hope all is well.

Thank you for your help, Upsydaisy.

I have found 3 but can't find the other 2

Hopefully someone here will be able to help you out, Penny Lane. I merged your comment with our Carol Reed thread so that other players would be sure to see your post.

My only advice is to make sure that you carefully explore and make sure that you go every possible direction that you are able to.

Penny Lane, which balls do you have?

Hello Mikael, I have the orange, yellow and purple balls.

Mikael, I'm still having a major problem at the Turnip shooting range: punch in the red numbers.

Its 2017 and then 11, 20, 25.

Where are those numbers?

Thanks for your help.

Chief

The numbers to be punched are on your phone. It took me a while to figure that out haha I kept searching and searching the area and it finally hit me. duh!

Penny, look under a bench close to the small brown shed, and very closely at the pile of gravel at the very end of the area.

I was mistaken about the color of the balls that I found. I had the red ball which I thought was orange. I did find the orange ball by the shed so the red one must have been found at the pile of gravel because there is nothing there now. So I have all but 1 ball. I have red, yellow, purple and orange. Haven't found the last ball yet.

Penny, the last ball is just two steps from where you found the orange ball, even closer to the shed.

Found it! Thanks Mikael!

Marian took awhile but im ok ... Loved the Game Highly reccomend it! Its using the noodle (brain)-- loved every minute kinda frustrating at times But well worth the money spent!. Thank You so very Much Mikael I throughly appreciate your work .... (( APPLAUD )) keep up the great work PLEASE dont ever stop entertaining us your the Best

A big thanks to Penny Lane, Leeana and Marian for your help.

I'm finally moving on.

Great! Glad we could help! I sure have needed help enough times!

Well, I haven't done much of anything useful in this thread, but I sure do appreciate the other folks who are jumping in to help!

Your very welcomed Chief and Marian Your the best Im so Honored by those words you both said here I felt wanted and a great feeling of Useful came and not useless .......

You are far from useless, Leeana - so please don't ever feel that way. And you are a valued member of GameBoomers.

I hope this year will be better for you.

Useless?! My fellow birthday celebrator?! NEVER! We are also the same age and yes, you are a valued member and we miss you when you're not here!

Ok, now I am at the Beehives. I am supposed to examine them closely. But what am I looking for? Finding nothing.

Hi Penny Lane, If I remember correctly you are suppose to collect 2 so collect 1 from the right hive abd 1 from the left hive ,,,, go to the hive take bee box from inventory click I placed the item in your inventory on the bees and click on 1 it auto natically is collected do same on left hive hope this helped

Marian. Draclvr

I don't have a bee box. Only the stockings. Where do I get the box? I have the smoker and herb covered sticks but unable to use them. I assume I need a lighter or match to light the smoker before I can collect the bees? Where would I find it? I tried combining the sticks and the smoker but nothing happens. I get a gear icon on the hives but can't do anything.

Hi Penny Lane try looking at your notebook on your inventory far left what it says should Help You or at least guide you to another location That Notenook was a Great guide for me try doing what it says maybe its telling you to go somewhere else or it might state the location you are in to keep looking around thats what I would do!

I found the lighter but I still can't collect the bees. Where do I get the Bee Box? The notebook only tells me to collect the bees. The smoker is now fully assembled but I need the box? All I have are the stockings

Hi Penny, I have played all of Carol's games, and find that when moving anywhere, turn around a full circle every single time. Things hide in undergrowth, side of furniture, tops of cupboards etc., I have always wondered why clocks have no hands? and in this game why are Carol's ear buds and what looks like a pumice stone hiding in the fridge !!

I have looked everywhere(I think) Do I have to find the box or will it be given to me? Could someone tell me where it is so that I can move on? Thanks!

OK, I'm stuck big time. I'm at the turnip range, have been to the first shed on the right where the door's locked, then went along the long open shed and looked all over the gravel on the ground, then saw the targets with two of the numbers that are red, then went to the porta potty, then went to the green door that has a lock on it that I can't access....I've put the numbers into the phone without success.
I'm done.

Penny, what does the hint say exactly at this point? You have to bring up another location on the map to find the box, and I don't think you've done that yet. Take a good look at the very end of the location with the hives (note that you can continue past the small house).

Melia, have you found the green shed with two doors on it? It's in the middle of the whole area. Start from the very beginning of the scene, take two steps forward, turn to the left, one step forward, and then to the left again. Look behind the left door.

When asking for help, it's very helpful if you quote the current hint. It helps me, and probably other members that have completed the game, to pinpoint what the next action should be.

I completely missed the small house so I went by there and found a note telling me to go to Broxtowe . I did that and got the bee box. So now I will go catch some bees! Thanks for pointing the small house out for me. I never would have noticed that path. Thanks Mikael, as always I am enjoying the game.

Thank you Mikael. I'm finally off the mark. I never would have found that shed without your directions. Because of your help I got the key which opened another shed where the date of the tournament was displayed, so I was able to punch it in the phone and go from there. Now I've found the 5 balls but don't have what i need to clean graffiti. Do I need to go back home and pick up supplies?

Melia, what does the hint say? You probably have to go back to the laundry.

An earlier location is relevant as well Melia but the in-game hints will assist if you missed it.

Hi all, I am stuck at getting the phone to work, the hint says I have all the information for the phone puzzle, but when I get it set, nothing happens, I think I have missed something, but don't know what, I have been over every place on the map several times and can't figure it outany help will be appreciated

dorf, you will have to set the 3 symbols right (from top to bottom: circle, the long symbol, and the compasses), and the target to the same colors as the one on Agastya Hill, and then click "OK".

I click on the feather and the circle with the + sign appears then I click on the elongated symbol and another symbol shows up, then I click on the next symbol and the compass appears, then I change the color of the target to match agastya hill, then I click o.k. and nothing happens. What do you mean by setting the 3 symbols, I am clicking on each one.

You're supposed to to set the screen on the phone so that that 3 symbols you describe are displayed. What you're describing is correct, except that the elongated symbol is not supposed to be clicked at at all.

Thank you Mikael, the lite bulb just went off in my head.. I got it. Appreciate the help. Keep the great games comming

I'm stuck at trying to get into the end of the barn at Jungmanshof. The hint says to go in on the end and then to the middle and then light it up. The only long barn I can find has a locked door in the middle and no key.

never mind. I found the answer. now am on my way to the jetty.

Mikael, and thank you for all of your help.

There is a birthday thread for you over in Mixed Bag.

Never mind. I got it.

Glad you got it figured out!

Thank you Marian, and yes, I've been in the thread.

A friend of mine, of the same age, said to me the other day that "we're beginning to get frighteningly old". I could only agree. But, if not else, this thread proves that I'm still able to remember my own game.

And you remember it very well, Mikael!

Finished it!! This was a really hard one.

Congratulations on finishing the game, Bristol!

Yes, players often get stuck on the shooting range. The puzzle was actually even more complex in the beta version, so I'm glad that I changed it.

Thanks Marian. I am stuck trying to figure out which building has an inner aisle. Is the Orangery the Jungmanshot on the map? The hint says to use the plank to get the key in the first room in the inner aisle.

Jachern, the orangery is at Krusenhof (the long white building with the hole in the roof). The inner aisle is the long dark section.

Hi, I'm stuck at the Obstacle Course. Have collected the battery, bracelet ,flash drive, and pass and one other object which isn't on the list (no idea what it is). I can't return to Jonas so there must be a 5th item somewhere. I've been round and round for two days, please help. Thanks

Thank you Mikael. Please keep these games coming. You take such wonderful pictures of the countryside of your beautiful country.

Blackbird, look to the side near the middle of the area. It's a red object in the grass beside a large wooden construction.

How do you know what buttons to press to open the purse?

FJT, what purse are you referring to? There are two in the game. The first one is found in the grass by the feeding station. You have to apply some trial and error there. The solution is 2, 4 ,3, 1.

The second one is in Amos' house. You will find the clue in a notepad in the same room.

I found it with your help Mikael. I'm loving the challenges you have set us.

Thanks Mikael. I first thought that I was missing a clue somewhere for the first purse in the grass.

Hi game boomers. I am stuck at the Turnip Range....I found the correct green shed and got a key. Now my hints tell me to open a door on a red and yellow building right near the entrance to this area. I can't find that building. There is a small red building with a yellow door but I can't seem to do anything there. It shows a hand but it won't let me use the key I collected. Can anyone give me a better direction to get to the right place. to use the key. Thank you...

Linda, you have to click on the hand icon.

If I remember correctly its behind the "shooters" structure at the start of the range.

Yes, Flotsam is right here. I probably misunderstood Linda. There are two sheds that fit into the same description. You'll find the one in question if you start from the beginning of the location, and go left, forwards, left, forward, and right.

I found the correct green shed and have moved forward. Now I just picked up a pallet and Krusenhof and Carol says that is what she needs to get into the orangery...Now sure where that is....???

Linda, the orangery is the long white building at the same location as you picked up the pallet.

Now, I just have to ask... what in the world is an orangery!!?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orangery

Thanks, Mikael. Never heard of such a thing!

Tangentially, a most excellent one contains Monet's waterlillies in the Tuilleries in Paris.

I also have this adventure game released back in 2000:

Monet: The Mystery of the Orangery

And have also been fortunate enough to visit the Tuileries in Paris.

Is this game similar to the Carol Reed games?

A few minutes of the game are shown on You Tube here.

I had completely forgotten about that game. I never got around to play it, and I don't remember why. The premise is great:

* Claude Monet - calls for some interesting visual approach.
* Free 1st person movement - wasn't usual in adventure games back then, but I've always liked it.
* An orangery - should be in every adventure game with style.

The game is not available on amazon . There are some on Ebay. One from the UK and the others want huge prices for it. I kind of doubt that windows 10 will play it because it was distributed in 2000.

I have it on my shelf here. I'll try to start the disc later today.

Someone in the comments section of the YouTube video I linked to said this:



Maybe it will run without having to use a virtual machine in Windows 10.

I hate to say it but I am too stuck now. I simply cannot find anything to do.

Nevermind. I figured it out.....

Nope, it didn't for me. Windows 10 just threw up this big blue window saying that "this app can't run on your PC" (which, in all fairness, is an unusually unambiguous error message from Microsoft). It might be that the person who managed to run it on Windows 10 had a 32-bit system.

That could be, Mikael.

I have the Monet game as well and reviewed it back in the day. It is a pretty game in which you get to play in scenes that Monet painted but it is overly reliant on timed puzzles and apart from the art doesn't reach any great heights.
Plus it had a not-uncommon glitch that prevented you from finishing without loading a saved game (from someone else) that wasn't similarly afflicted.

Finished, I enjoyed that thanks Mikael, loved the bird sounds too. I'll probably play it again during our winter. I hope all the GameBoomers enjoy it too.

I also finished the game a few days ago. It was a tough one, but enjoyable. There was enough of a story line to 'hold it together.'
My only complaint is that sometimes I need to exit an area and go somewhere else, but can't find my way to the exit. Oftentimes it is easy to get back there, but sometimes maddengly difficult. How nice it would be to have a "Map" button so you could just jump to the map from being lost in a large area.

That's a great idea! I'm always having trouble finding my way out of warehouses, factories and outdoor areas. I find myself wandering and going in circles sometimes. quick exit would be very welcome. But Mikael, I am not really complaining. Your games have kept me interested ever since the first one. I have played them over and over again. Thank you for hours of enjoyment. I must add that I really like the hint feature in the games. Most of the time
I would be lost without it! Bravo!

I am supposed to find a paper on a book shelf at the Bee's country house, on the main floor. I have looked everywhere but I can't see a bookshelf anywhere. I looked upstairs but no paper there either....

Hopefully another player will be along soon to help you out here, linda.

Linda, it's in the room next to the one with the ugly art piece on the bottom floor, at the very end of the "right" section of the bottom floor.

Got it and moving on. I am in the bunker now and can't find anything usable. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? I have no idea where to go from here....thanks. Looked at the in game hints and it just says go to the bunker......

Until someone comes along with a better memory than mine, have you looked at the in-game hints?

Figured it out and finished the game....very enjoyable......

Well-done!
