MAGICAMA

Well Peter I stuck with it and finished every puzzle except the numbers grid puzzle which came up early on in the game.I didnt understand it then and I dont understand it now.Even after watching the hint complete a game I still dont understand it.Other than that it turned out to be a very enjoyable game. I dont know if there is some kind of definate ending to the game because I didnt finish that one puzzle.I also heard somewhere that there were 30 puzzles.I only got 21 or so,so I dont know whats up with that.But all in all a very enjoyable game.

Geo, there are definitely more puzzles than 21. What is the last one you completed? Maybe you didn't finish it yet and it hasn't triggered the next location. The screen with all the games should be full. I beieve it should contain 5 rows of 6 games.

Geo,

The Magicama FAQ (accessible from my web site) may answer some of your queries.

Also please e-mail me directly if you still have any unresolved issues.

Peter

My screen with all the games is only 1/2 full.Wow I must have alot more to go.

Enjoy Geo....you have some great puzzling to do yet!

Ana

The last puzzle I completed was the best poker hand puzzle.There are no more puzzles available to me.I completed them all axcept the number grid puzzle which came up early on.So here I sit,apparently many more puzzles are yet to come but I cant get to them.What a bummer.

Geo....I'm certain you will be able to get them one way or the other. Peter should be on to help, if for some reason he doesn't you can send me your save and I'll take a look at it. If I'm not mistaken it is a text folder in the Magicama folder that is called the item you are using to get in such as "well" or "owl". That is what you'd have to send. Or, you could save that folder to your desktop, uninstall the game and reinstall it. Perhaps there was a glitch in installation.

Hi Geo -- there is a glitch in the game associated with progressing after this particular card game. If you email Peter at Mulawa Dreaming, he'll be able to straighten out the glitch for you.

AHA! Thanks Becky.Do you know his email address?

Geo, click on Mulawa1 (in this thread) and then click on Peters profile. His email address is in there.

Ana

Thanks ANA,I thought something might be wrong.Its scary being right all the time.

I hear ya!

That's strange that the game does not progress. I beta tested it and played it an unbelievable amount of times and it never got stuck.

Ana

Hi Geo,

CYE

I've also added this issue to the Magicama FAQ - sadly it is a very rare occurence. I say "sadly" because it means that I've been unable to reproduce it so am unable to fix it as yet. Many others have tried to reproduce it also without success. As far as I know out of hundreds (maybe thousands) of plays it has happened 3 times!

Peter

Hi,

I am playing Magicama and have found 6 games but I can't seem to find any more. I have 7 red spots on the map and they take me to panoramic locations but I can't find anything there. Can anyone help please?

Mave.

There is a flash of a closeup when you first get to the location. You need to find that spot that was in the closeup. Some locations pan left and right, some just straight ahead. Which picture is it?

Ana

Mave -- if there's a 7th red spot on the map, that means that the 7th game is still hiding in one of the locations.

Thanks Becky and Ana. I'll try again.

Mave.

Hi,
Have you got to complete the first level of a puzzle before you can access another one. I'm stuck on one of the puzzles and the help icon isn't there so I can't move on.

Mave

There should be a help button to get you through each one. You need to complete one puzzle in each in order to move on. Which one are you stuck on?

Ana

Hi Ana

Sorry to be so long getting back to you, but had visitors so couldn't get on to the pc. I'm stuck on no 16 and I can't get the hang of it at all. I tried the ? but I'm still no clearer.

Mave.

Hi mave...I sent you a PM. That should get you going again. Otherwise send me your save and I'll play it for you. If you have any further questions, let me know you're moving to Hints so I can find you.

Ana

Hi Ana,

I'm stuck again on no 20.I have tried the hint and I see what is happening but whenever I try to do it nothing happens.
I've clicked on the dots and the lines.

Mave.

I'll take a look at 20 when I get home from work, unless someone comes by sooner. This should really be posted in Hints so anyone playing can come along and help.

Ana

I am really enjoying this game with one small exception. I see no way to back out of a puzzle once I realize I'm on the wrong track. In the third puzzle for example, I didn't have to place very many pieces before I realized I was backed into a corner and now I don't know how to restart the puzzle. Did anybody else have this problem with this game?

Jenna, every puzzle should have some type of reset button. Which one are you on?

Edit: By third one, do you mean the puzzle with the geometric figures that you place to make a design? If they are in place and you can't move them, you put them in the right place. They won't stay put in the wrong place.

If you have any more problems, there is a thread in hints going also. It would be better to post there.

Ana

Hi Jenna,

In the 3rd puzzle you can't get backed in to a corner. If the pieces are in the right spot they light up. If the pieces are not lit up that means they can be moved. Once lit up, they are locked and all other pieces are free to move over them. There is no way not to get this game. You can rotate the pieces and place them whereever you want, but if they do not light up and lock then they are needed somewhere else.

I loved this puzzle the best. Once you get the first one, there are more to go with different pieces.

Good luck,
Flo

Thanks Flo for the help and Happy Birthday!! I will post any further questions on this in the hint thread.
