I may have stumbled across something bad once more. ;) You can push two table tops onto the same square but they don't come apart again after you did that... I was on one of my "scout runs" so no worries about that. First I have to find out how to reach that spot again. :lol: I was treatin...

Can it be "overwritten"? If so, you could at least not carry a phantom chest with you but reduce ut to something lightweight or even back to Zero once you find that Corbamite.

OK, no problem.

Yes, I know that. But the pressure pad also closes the door and I somehow made it through before realizing that...

Finally at the tower top.

Spoiler

But it seems now I am trapped behind that black door (the one with the pressure pad and the YA OH FUL ZO scroll in front of it. Is there a way to open it from the inside or will I have to restart? Wouldn't be too bad, as I have a save from not too far earlier.

Ah well, can't believe I missed that.

Spoiler

I thought I tried to hold it in hand but obviously it was something else, probably the OH flask. So on it goes.

Whoo, those tower levels almost got me to quit as I hate performing under pressure and with no idea what I have to do at that... But I got the YA key and the OH key though the latter won't fit where I expected it to. After some tries at the ghost level and no idea what I had to do (even managed to k...

Right mouse click, then click the disc-symbol. The game pauses, you can draw your map. Continue. :) Just hitting 'Esc' will do the same trick. And I prefer mapping even now when practically all of the maps can be found on the web. It tends to be tedious, but some spots I never find looking at a com...

That loan system sounds cool. Sometimes it seems you could almost build another game out of all the parts you decided/had to discard. As for that cave: I had another peek and it seems that after your hint, I was on the right track but got thrown off because it felt like killing those guys with magic...

Yeah well, I figured that, but: I seem to have a knack of always choosing the wrong one. :D Tried it in bursts of five runs of betting always on the same one (and yes I know: statistically, five is about nothing) and won once with the two favourite ones, respectively and nothing with the one having ...

So, Part 2... As I mentioned in the PM, got stuck in the same spot as Leslie did and peeked at the corresponding spoilers. After that, I had a lot of exploring to do but it seems I'm once more at an impasse on all fronts. So here's what I achieved so far: As recommended, got myself a bank account. F...

So OK... still missing are as predicted, the RaSar Plate, then the Phantom and the Sun Staff. Cool game so far. Of course there are sections that seemed more tedious to me, but I'm sure those are exactly the ones that others enjoy most. :) One more remark concerning that keep room: I guess you have ...

Did the parts after the keep on my own, that is I saved before entering the docks and will have to wait anyway since I have to sell my black market things and probably most of the other stuff as well since I won't be coming back, I guess. Found 27 secrets, so I missed 3, one of them being the RaSar ...

I consulted that file when I unpacked the game but never thought about afterwards. :lol: But it seems I'm at a loss again: I got that urn, or to be precise: the ashes from inside and that he will rise in flames again. I guess that refers to the last room of the keep as it has those ominous holes in ...

Great news! All the best wishes to the three of you.

OMG, it was even more evil. That was a hard nut to crack. Afterwards I even got the right one immediately, though I'm not entirely sure what I did there. I'll go checking the DM wiki on that aspect.

Edit: Ah OK, forgot about that part, it's been a while that I've played DM.

Whoa, that's evil. :D Actually, I may have almost stumbled across it in the beginning, when I still tried both directions similar because I didn't know which referred to what. Did that steps in my head though, so I had no two lines to choose from (and I'm not sure I would have tried that, but no way...

Nope, I'm talking about Witcher III which is almost bought by now. ;) Just got my first Steam-moneycard or whatever they're called (know them from Nintendo, so I expect noc problems there). Now I only have to find the right steps to get that money on Steam and then further on to that Polish company....

OK, that's basically what I did. Rechecked and found out I got two letters wrong due to that font (read the V for a U and the Q for a G), but even that didn't help. So, having a bit of programming experience, I tried it with brute force. With that kind of code it shouldn't matter if you can figure o...

OK, it seems I'm at a loss. I tried exchanging the letters by a constant scale, and by using just the first line to check all 25 possible movements it doesn't seem I can get any readable text out of it, even if I consider that the vowels may have a different scale. (Not as much work as it may sound,...

Haha, that's about the same as it went with me and Witcher II. It does have a tutorial, but afterwards I could not even remember how to brew potions. :D And I never could get into a gaming flow. The "cutscenes" are great, but it feels watching a movie with cutscenes of gaming. :lol: But so...

I considered both possibilities, but could not make anything out of it yet. But I don't have much time to play at the moment anyway, so I'll have that riddle lying around here and look at it during spare moments. And I still got that area six feet under to explore, so no worries.

Yay, I've got a friend. :mrgreen: Currently thinking about Witcher III, which is in sale till June 1st. I'm not good with that relatively new "consequence" thingy and with W2 I couldn't even master the controls, but apart from that it should be a cool game. Well, I still have 5 days to mus...

So, after three levels with no major problems I'm still only at 84% completion. :shock: Got 23/30 secrets, so good progress there. But now I got this scrambled scroll... Here's what I tried so far: "rising seven" -> replace the letters with another, seven positions apart in the alphabet, b...

OK, I hope I got the right one on Steam, there is also a Canadian astronaut which I guess isn't you. ^^ Grml, doesn't work anyway because I'm a loser that hasn't pumped enough money in there. :P So if you want to try, it Prince_of_Elves from Germany, no avatar yet. Else I'll come back for you when I...

Don't worry about writing much, I'm an adept reader. Just take care that your keyboard won't run dry of letters. ;) Boulder Dash is indeed older and it's a classic that has often been copied with more or less success. You are a miner on the lookout for emerald (Emerald Mine is one of the earliest cl...

Oh wow, that's a lot to read and to process, but really helpful. I'll certainly come back to that section when it's time to think about new games. I'm setting up my Steam account now, so: yay. :D Day of the Tentacle, yeah, I actually know that one. A friend of a friend had that one and we played wit...

Thanks, MasterWuuf :) I've been stalking your posts about Conflux and they often made me smile, especially when you talk about your hoarding, as I like to do that, too - although I think you top me there. Been playing that one for a while too, but trailed off at some time, don't even remember why. T...

Thanks for your descriptions. I did check out the games you mentioned (and I guess I finally have to get a Steam account these days ;) ) but your summaries are much more fun to read. You do have a way with words. :) (On that regard: what happened to your homepage, or are you a hypnotist now? :D ) So...

Regarding that sun:

Spoiler

Have to be a real arse first and thank those priests for all they did for me. The sun changes its colors after and then its no problem to get it off. What do I learn from that? Sometimes its best to wait before asking.
