Happy Gaming,
Ana

Dwnld early this morning.So far so good.Graphics,and storyline are good. I liked the first one also.

thracia

Thanks, Ana

I just dld the trial and played a bit, looks good so far. I love the skeleton hand, nice touch! LOL

I liked the first game and bought this one without a trial with my free coupon. Everything's looking good, the story, the graphics, the HO are not very difficult to find which is good for my eyes. I'm enjoying the game.

I can't even get out of the cemetary. I must have had dumb pills for lunch.

Too funny Patsy. I bought this game a few minutes after I started playing. I'm about half way through and don't want it to end. I love everything about it. As far as I can tell it is going to be a very decent length. I'm stuck on a puzzle right now so I had to get out and take a break. If I do that it usually becomes clearer to me what I need to do. Hope everyone has a good time playing this game. Very happy that it is a rainy Saturday and can't get out to do yard work.

Bought it without even trying. I just know it will be a great game!

I am finding it a huge improvement on the Flux Family Secrets. I hope BFG has realized it's World Cup football(soccer)at the moment and some of us are DESPERATE to avoid it! Come on BFGUY, take pity, keep 'em coming. This is a VERY good game!

Does the flashing and lightning stop after awhile? I tried the demo and really like it, but it also gives me a headache.

Does anyone know if there is a walkthrough
for this games.THANK YOU!

It will be coming soon on BigFish, it was released ahead of schedule and the walkthrough was not done yet.

Ana

Thank you very much for letting me know about the walkthrough.

Thanks Ana, fantastic game. Great IHog, good graphics and story.

Life is getting in the way so only about 60 percent through the game but (only worth sitting on) I have to say this is the best, yes, the best game I have ever played.

This is much better than the Poe game. First, improved game play in terms of adventure (still no way to turn off the sfarking sparkles, however) and puzzles. Second, superior attention to authentically presented historical amusement by which I mean carefully worded documents and text about graphic details. Although I have to say, I thought those poor people in Salem were crushed under stones either until they confessed or until death. But, hey, I haven't finished the game yet. Third, the art is far more engaging.

Salem Witch Trials is a winner by several furlongs.

And I, too, am sure that the guy in the grated cellar is sorry for what he did. Yeah, and very funny touch.

Holy cow, am I jealous of you guys! I tried the trial and just as with the Poe game, I couldn't take the bird/crow. This is what happens when you have a phobia that gets into your games!

It really does seem like a great game, and for anyone who does not have the bird phobia, don't hesitate to get it!

In the meantime, I'll just live vicariously thru you all .. so play on!

Finished this evening and I really enjoyed the game! Great game play, great storyline, great length! All good!

Darlene WOW I am impressed this is a tough game and you did it without any walkthru or stragedy guide?

Please someone help me I am stuck in the Judges house with the clock

I'm stuck. I believe I have the ingredients to make the potion but I can't get into Sarah Good's house to make it. She keeps saying go away stranger. Can anybody help?

I'm having a problem opening the safe in the office on the train.

I have the morse code, is this the code for the safe? If so, do you put in the numbers
left turn-right turn-left turn-right turn?


Thanks Marion

You were thinking the way I was thinking about the safe puzzle.

Here's a hint:



As far as your problem goes, Gail, I am trying to remember what I did in that part of the game; I can't remember offhand what the sequence was.

This is a great game, but I'm stuck. I'm supposed to have acquired a bag of coins from the judge's office and this didn't happen. I read on Big Fish forum that others had this problem. One suggestion was to start the game over and SKIP the coin puzzle on the rug in the judge's office. There's got to be a better answer. Help, please.

I'm not sure what to tell you, Sparkle. I did the coin puzzle and had no problem getting the bag of coins. One thing I have noticed with the game is that you can't ever assume that you are "done" with any particular room; several times I have gone back to a room later and there was something else to do that wasn't there before.

Is there anything else you can do now besides get the bag of coins? I'm thinking the bag of coins might show up if you go do something else and then return to that room later.

Thank you for responding, Marian. I don't know if there's anything else I can do right now. The character who has the key I need requires the bag of gold. What I don't understand is why, if I played the coin game on the rug correctly, the bag of gold should have been added to my inventory (according to the walkthrough) and it was not.

I don't understand that either. I just took a look at the Big Fish Games forums and read the notes that had been written by people who didn't end up with a bag of coins. Maybe this is a glitch that happens to some folks and not others, depending on what order you have done some previous things? I don't know. I wish there was a solution other than your having to restart the game, though.

If enough people have this problem, there may be a fix/update forthcoming for the game.

Thanks Marian. I guess I'll try starting the game over.

I got the coins, but at the projector I hadn't got the cartridges (even though had I picked them up) I exited and went back in and lo and behold they had miraculously turned up. Sounds like an update will be in the post!

hi all,
I am wandering around looking for the rest of the shovel to find Hawthorne's grave. Any nudges would be appreciated.

As is so often the case....I found it after posting. Great game so far!

Started over. It didn't take long to get past where I got stuck. This time I got the bag of gold and was able to move forward. ????

Strange, isn't it? Maybe there's some coding bug somewhere in the game's logic. At any rate, I'm glad you can proceed now with the bag of gold!

Sorry some of you are experiencing glitches in the game.

Ana

I figured out how to read the paper on the desk... but it is so far away I can't read it. Is it my eyes? It seems like I need to do something with that note... but what?

I already

how do you put in a spoiler?

Hi Gaily, since I was stuck there for so long until someone told me how to leave the English mansion that is where your at right? and you are trying to go back to cemetery to look for rest of shovel and the ghost will not let you saying the answer is in the walls of the house? if so

Newyorklady

Yes to all your questions Sherryah except using the objects on it. Thanks... will try.

Downloaded this morning... one word. Delicious!

Does anyone know where the piece of coal is to use on the paper for the code? I can't go back anywhere. I opened the safe but can't get the code.

I Finished the game and that meant staying up all night to do it. I think the game is FANTASTIC!
There is much interactivity and that is my favorite part. The hints are generous. Graphics beautiful, storyline compelling to know what will happen next. Music good didn't get on my nerves.

A few WOW moments where things jump out at you. The hidden object games have a reason. The game is re-playable with new hidden objects. I will be playing it again because I did not find all 50 clovers to unlock more game.

I can't recommend this game highly enough. The only thing that would have made it perfect is voice overs. I hate having to guess what the ghosts sound like.

Awe well can't have everything sometimes. I loved Edgar Allen Poe and loved this game equally. Looking forward to the next one.

I had no glitches in the game. I am Leary about games with the occult in the title but this game did not have me casting spells or drawing and standing in pentagrams. I usually I read walkthru to make sure that doesn't happen. Whoosh big relief.

I also got to talk to Abe Lincoln ghost LOL and learned history lessons. This game also made me wonder if the women who were executed in Salem were really all witches. I never heard the theory this game teaches, gives a person a pause for thought.

You can tell a lot of time went into the game just for the little extra animations. I like that the story had a ending that makes sense. Also a nice lengthy game. I had to consult the walkthru only a few times so the difficulty level for me was perfect. No two mini games were the same. You get your moneys worth thanks BFG for winner.

Disregard my post. Found it!!

Glad that you solve it, GBC.

I need help please - near the end of the game, I'm suppposed to go to the House of Seven Gables and "pry" something

Can't find the house - what does it look like? I wonder if I need something in the tool box to pry with

Fantastic game - the journal helps a lot.

Did you know there's a walkthrough on BF Forums?

Wow! What a great game! But I only found 45 clovers. A reason to play again???

Happy Birthday, Flo

Joan

I am at the very beginning. After finding the ho's, am supposed to exhaust conversation with ghost, then click on its hand to go to the cemetary. Problem is, after the ho part, the ghost doesn't reappear for me. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I picked up all I was supposed to.

got it. thanks

This is a VERY Good game...

You combine objects to get new ones....

I just love it....Also it is very scary

Bought it right after 5 minutes of game play.

OK... I opened the safe but now have to unlock a book... I have no clue where to get the code and there is still not a WT. Can someone give me a hint?

NYLady BFG has the walkthru now and also Gamezebo if memory serves me correct. Check out BFG forum to get walthru or gamezebo. Have fun it is a great game.

I have the Gamezebo w/t and am trying to do the "gavel puzzle" but even though I have the calendar and the gavel is working, trying to follow the trail is not working. I keep hitting "red" spots.

Any hints available to get me through this puzzle please? I will go to BFG now and see if their w/t is easier. **I can't find the w/t at BFG, not posted yet, but since it is by Margie I am thinking it will be the gamezebo one?

please

The walkthrough link is in my first post.

Linda, Margie hasn't worked for GameZebo in over a year. She works for BigFish.

Ana

Thanks for the link.

Sorry about not knowing Margie is BFG now. But it does explain why their blog w/t's are so great!

While I had to use the WT to find a puzzle at the end of the game (a sure sign of sparkle dependency, which I dislike), I did manage to find 53 clovers. Does anyone know how many were there total?

The blog walkthrough is now up and posted. The link is in my first post.

Ana

Sounds like this one is a winner. After I finish Flux 2, will have to get this with my credit and this will also fill my card. I absolutely love when there is the extra challenge of finding something extra.

Just finished the game and didn't have to look at the walkthrough, but I certainly didn't find all of the clovers!

This game will have good replay value.

I've played it 3 times now just so I could get at least 50 clovers!! I finally did it!!

Sherlock

f admit I skipped the gold coin puzzle I wasn't taking a chance in having to do a restart of the game. No problem the bag appeared and I grabbed it.
I have to say though this is the first time I didn't complain about having to restart a game it is that great of a game in my opinion.

For the gavel puzzle this is what I remember

Thank you very much Sherryah.

I did finally have to skip the puzzle because even with the w/t I kept getting a red box when I was sitting on the correct square, 8 just didn't give me the blue the way it was supposed to and it kept sending me back to square 1, quite literally.

It has not ruined the game for me - I just had to finally skip the puzzle

Great game and well worth the entry fee!

I did the gavel puzzle, then looked in the "book" down to the left and it showed the way through. Don't know if this will help other folks or not, but thought I would mention it.

Jody (great super game...just wish it were larger on my screen as it would make it easier to find da little hidden clovers! And it's not that I haven't punched full screen as I have done, it's that it is still small and doesn't use my whole screen!)

I did notice the book had a diagram - I wonder if it was different from the walkthrough

Now I am totally lost - I cannot find The House of the 7 Gables? I am wandering all around Salem but simply going in circles.

AARGH! Can someone put me on the right road please?

**Never mind! Found it and finished the game!! All I had to do was ask and then I could find it!

I just finished the game. I didn't find all the ravens or clovers, and I can't play the unlimited part of the game, but it sure was fun to play.

Me neither but it was a great game!

Finished the game. This was the best casual game I played so far this year!

if you bought it go back in a play a new game . thats what i did and was able to play the unlimited part

I probably would go back and find the rest of the clovers, but it is just HO's and I would rather solve than search. I figured out by the way, if you are having the same problem of the small screen even though you chose the full screen, that if you click on the link to the other Mystery Game, it makes the screen full size. Of course I didn't find this out until I was completely through with the game ...so I missed 2 clovers...and the others were hard to see on a small screen.

BUT I loved the game, one of the best in a long time IMHO!

Jody

I am playing through again - looking for all the clovers.

Retried the gavel puzzle and this time was able to solve it as shown below.



So the solution puzzle picture is what didn't work for me. You cannot take the dates/numbers out of order.

Linda....so glad you got it. That's always a great feeling!

I have a question about the unlimited portion of the game. I finished the game, but didn't find all the clovers, so I went back and started again. Playing thru with the walkthrough I found 50 clovers and quit. Now I have eight scenes for the unlimited section.

My question is - are there more than eight scenes if you finish the game with all the covers?

on to Agatha Christie now

Janice

Menahune,

No there are only a total of 8 HOG scenes. When you play a scene it will ask you to find a number of items & when you find those it will give some new items to find and will keep doing so until you find ALL of the items that were hidden in that scene. Hope that answers your question.

Thanks L4L! I did feel better doing the puzzle! I don't know why the picture didn't work for me - really doesn't matter - I am just glad I found a working solution instead of skipping the puzzle again.

Now we wait another year for the nest Midnight Mystery game!

Did anyone happen to let the credits roll and see what was at the bottom of them?

No - but if you can tell me where to find the one missing domino - the 2+3 - I will watch them!

I am so close to finishing the game the 2nd time around and cannot for the life of me find the last domino

I just finished the game,absolutly loved it ,even better that the first one.Raylin, I don't exactly remember where it was, but I had all of them so they weren't hard to find. I'm sure you will find it soon.

thracia

I have been everywhere I can go - just cannot locate the missing domino. I found it with no problems the first time through

Oh well, on to PuppetShow 2!

I just wanted to say thank you to BrownEyedTigre for the walkthrough on BFG.

I am having the same problem as anyone else about the coins on the floor. Thank is ok-later BFG is working on that one.

The bookcase on the left side of the fireplace has blue gears. Can you tell me what is that for?

Please switch over to casual games - Sorry.

Raylin, have you tried looking at the Walkthrough to find the missing one?

Newgames, I moved you from Hints. I haven't played yet, I am sorry to say. I do write walkthroughs for BigFish but I did not write this one. The Queen of Casual Walkthroughs, Margie did this one. Hopefully someone that has played will be along shortly.

Ana

please tell me how to do a spoiler so I can tell Raylin where the dominoe is.


Thanks Ana, I'm going to write it down and save it.

I didn't realize there were 2 ways to reply. I won't forget this time.

Switch to full reply and click on the megaphone looking thing. YOu type inbetween the spoiler tags.

Ana

Dominoes

Thanks Flo! I know I got the one in the trunk because I have searched it over and again

I thought there was one in a hallway or something so I will check where you are telling me. I would really like to 'finish' the game again!

Linda

Got it! Thank you so much Flo & BET (I went back to the BFG w/t and just kept reading!)

BTW, I did watch all the credits this time and there is a note left for all of us to read - perchance the foretelling of another game coming?

At Sarah's, buried 'neath the grave;
Tis a raven egg on Easter born.
Approach the tombstone and be brave;
A rodent shift exposes what we have sworn.

P.S. What is a scaredy cat? I never got one in either playing.

**edit: Just a question - I am playing games in Windows 7 for the first time - if I have any browser windows open, the game crashes instead of opening. Is this normal? It isn't a terrible problem, just one I never experienced before. I "think" it comes from banners loading on the open browser pages.

Maybe the cat comes out if you randomly click too many times.

Actually, the one thing I couldn't do with this game was to reduce it to the tool bar below, and if I had the walkthrough open, it would freeze and I'd have to reboot to get rid of it.

Some games just want the computer all to themselves.

Glad you finally finished. Great game.

Hi, Flo!

I believe the cat does come out only if you randomly click too many times, and it temporarily replaces the raven above the Hints button.

ICAM that it's a great game, and the HOs are different every time you play. I played 3 times because I wanted to find 50 clovers, but ended up printing off a walkthrough because I was only able to find 47 on my own.

Susan

I have been able to press the "windows" button and leave the games open but see my desktop to access the walkthroughs. Almost every game lets me do this.

Now I guess I will have to play it yet again so I can check out the cryptic message about the grave at Sarah's house!

**edit: I started a 3rd time - finally reached Sarah's house again. How does one click on the grave I tried but without success.

At Sarah's, buried 'neath the grave;
Tis a raven egg on Easter born.
Approach the tombstone and be brave;
A rodent shift exposes what we have sworn.

It seems you just need to approach it and a rodent moves away and exposes it.

Maybe go back there every once in awhile to check, it might not happen til close to the end of the game maybe.

Well, I just finished the game for the 2nd time, didn't use any hints and found 50 clover, although I guess that's not all of them according to Achievment list.

I couldn't approach the headstone either, so not sure what they're talking about with that verse.

Thanks Flo! It has to be about another sequel in the series! This was a great game!!

If I get better results, I will let you know for sure!

**edit: I played through the game yet again - still cannot approach that grave and I saw no rodent crossing the path either.

Hmmmm. Maybe Ana knows something?

Ana didn't know - but Mumbo Jumbo gave me the answer!

I just played enough to get to Sara's house and saw what they were talking about.


Ok, thanks, I'll do that.

According to the MumboJumbo Customer Support,


Linda

I just finished the Flux game and used one of my credits and just started Midnight Mysteries 2. I have only played a few minutes and love this game. Story looks like it will be really interesting!!

I'm having a problen with the lock on the customs house. The video goes too fast. Can anyone give me a step by step to get the lock open?

Bkrytr, have you tried the Walkthrough Here?

I've tried all the wt's. They all have a video of this puzzle. The video goes too fast.

Got it!

Ok, I just had to find the puzzle you are doing - instead of watching the video, just look below that in the Walkthrough and follow the diagrammed picture - it shows where everything goes.

If the ghost isn't moving, it means you have the wrong color bowl in the window, bottom left. You are probably doing everything right but with the wrong color.

I finished this game and it was great. I really enjoyed it.

I thought so to! WTG ramona!!

I loved it too! Games like this one are so much more enjoyable.

I hope they are working on another sequel. I played the first one which was really good but I think this one topped that.

me too!

Just finished this game and loved it!
I did not find all 50 clovers, but will replay the game with a WT next time.

I have not played the first one in this series, but now I am off to download the Edgar Allen Poe game.
Very enjoyable!
Jeanne

I think I found a total of 53 clovers,athough all you need is the 50.
