Nice. Had to use the hints. Thanks Bart for the link.

Nice game, Thought the picture was telling me to put the rope in the pot. (Trying that should have helped me progress instead I was left scratching my head & trying stuff till I used the hint.)

No hints. No walkthrough. OUT! Can honestly say that is a first for me with one of his games. Logical and beautiful looking game.

Dan said...

The ending was very clever.

I'm lighting the candles in the order implied by the clock, but nothing is happening.

Are you sure? Follow the arrow...

Anonymous 18:33, I had the same problem. But you have to attach the clock numbers to the candles, and light them in THAT order.

I have the clock numbers, I've lit the candles in that order, but it still won't do anything!!

Zoom in on the arrow after you have lit the candles in the correct order. You'll find a key.

Where? I did all that but when I zoomed in, no key.

Click on the black post. It will give you a key if you have done it right.

I too had a problem with the candles. I figured out the solution though, 16:35:24, instead of 15:36:42. No idea where that number comes from, that's the order the candles were lit video walkthrough of the game and what works for me.

Anonymous said...

Candles... Light the #1 position, light the #2 position which is candle 6......15:36:42 2nd candle lit is the 6th candle.

Anonymous said...

k62mz8...the clue is alphabet...which has a certain order

Xyzzy said...

Out with no hints. Nicely done little exercise.

dyork said...

Another nice one. Logical, not too easy.

Re clock: number sequences are usually ambiguous. Does 312 mean the button order is 312 or is it 231?

I have the rope and the pot, but now I'm stuck. The HINT says, "Initial ABC... !

I can't figure out if that's supposed to be a hint on how to open the top drawer, or if the game hasn't registered that I already have the rope because I need to do something with it I haven't figured out yet.

Please help!

deCarlo said...

Just find a way to get some water with the pot. A rope might come in handy ...

Yu-chan said...

got stuck, can't find the flippers... got all the rest =(

I tried tying the rope to the pot, but I still can't use the pot in the well. Or I can tie the rope so it dangles into the well, but then I can't attach the pot. I also have the flashlight, but can't figure out what to do with that either.

Remember to read the writing on the dinner dish, what does it suggest?

Lizzie! said...

Another lovely Robamimi. I needed a couple of nudges from the hints (and Anonymous 19:54's subtle hint), but I swam away nicely.

Subtle hint about the 3 digit safe? It says "Alphabet" and it means it!
(P.S. There are no numbers in the alphabet.)

Brent said...

You guys realize walkthrough's are available on youtube.

Caroline said...

but Brent, that would be cheating ;o)

Anonymous said...

The order for the candles has next to no relevance to the time on the clock.

Lizzie! said...

The numbers on the clock are the labels for the candles. You just light them from 1 to 6, using the designation from the clock.

Anonymous said...

Ahh, that finally makes sense. I feel stupid now. :)

Look at the three-by-three bookshelf again. Specifically the names of the objects in each section.

Brent said...

Caroline, trust me I would of never beat this game without one, but usually I don't do walkthrough's anyways. I just give up if I reach a stand still.

Planets said...

out using only in game hints, but i am confused. Did I just use the flashlight underwater? Bcause that seems unsafe...

Anonymous said...

Ha, I like it! I had to use some hints, but it was delightful.

Anonymous said...

shorty82 is right about the clock time being wrong. I worked most of it out other than that, (with just a tiny bit of YouTube....) :0)

I ve solved it all
