:Heya~~
Charmer
:Okay, I'll bite. Second!!!
Torqane
:Not that tough, but I could certainly do with a volume control (a mute, actually) since I can in fact read the subtitles. I found the interface a bit odd but it was interesting that he could smell, hear, look, and "handle" things--gave it a bit of variety.
As to the interface, you talk to people by clicking the hand and then the person. You then get icons across the top representing what things you can talk about. Once you get used to it, it's not bad. The pointer changes to a hand for those things that apply to whichever mode you're in, so if you can't smell something but can look at it, you get a plain arrow for smell and a pointer hand for the eye, etc.
I had two very difficult spots to get through. I've used nested spoilers below so you can see just what you need to at a time (I hope--it works for me). Note if you have an RSS feed, it doesn't hide anything in that display of the thread, and there's a bit of formatting silliness after a block is closed with just a single word on the first line. Still, it's a great improvement over other approaches!

at the "shop" on Sturgeon Isle where I had to

What kind of Sturgeon is this?

It's a Magic Sturgeon
Hope that helps.

:hehe 4th!....played this game awhile ago and thought it was pretty cool
Graeme
:Torqane: Nice work! You are right about the spoliers in the rss feeds - if you know a good way I could get this to work let me know as I couldn't come up with anything - for now at least it marks spoilers in bold.
Logi
:I have a problem in the cave. I know there is something blue hidden in stalactites. I wanted to take a stalagmite (that one which is loose) and reach the blue thing. But I can't take the loosed stalagmite. What should I do?
Silly
:I can't figure out how to get past the keypad in the chest. Could anyone give me a clue?
Darkbex
:Hi I can't find any coins to pay for the boat. I got one from the house but no more. I think I the games has not loaded properly as nothing is showing up in the inventory for me. Any clues on the coin situation?
thanks
Logi
:Silly,
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
if you mean that one where the yellow stone is inside, there is a number 43216. The keys are letters mixed with another letters, f.ex. M+T etc. Look above, there is also written which numbers are which letters (f.ex. 3 = M+T). Press the right letters (keys) instead of numbers.
I am not so good in explaining in English but I hope it helps. ;)

Darkbex
:Never mind reloaded the game a zillion times and tada an inventory appeared. got coins now.
Logi
:Darkbex,
the inventory should be at the top of the screen, above the eye, hand etc.
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
Have you checked outside the house? Have you searched near Pirate?
Anybody with the cave?
Debbiecatal
:Has anyone caught the other boat yet? It keeps getting away!
Debra
:I'm stuck in the cave; I don't know how to work the puzzle. I've scrolled through the letters, got the first one green, but can't get any of the others green. What am I doing wrong?
Debra
:Of course I figured it out right after posting the question.

Chocofluff
:I have got to the chest and know the sequence of numbers and signs but nothing moves or picks up to open up to get yellow gem.
Picaso
:it's magic
DixiePixie
:to beat the boat, make sure you click the arrows that goes the same way the evil guy does, and only fire when he's right in front of you.
DixiePixie
:before you can loose the stalagmite, you have to have raised the blue case first, and put in the password.
Kirsty
:i have only found two coins one in the crate by the pirate and one in the house any more?where do i use the bolt cutters
Welshmam
:i am on the island i have found the blue gem
i can't do anything else
help
Kate
:Use the bolt cutters on the grate on the left side of the house.
Welshmam
:it's ok i got the key!
Atrox
:I can't seem to move the boat- any suggestions?
Atrox
:Clarification- The boat at the end.
Atrox
:Nevermind- somehow missed the arrows up top....
Tia
:hmmm Ive played this way before. *IevensubmittedittoGraemebuthenverpostedit:p* wow that was really hard to write had to stop myself from pressing space.
Its a good game but the sound was quite loud.
Phunky
:Good timewaster :) I was trying to control the boat with the arrow keys though, couldn't work out why it wouldn't move... I didn't even think of clicking the arrows :P
Charmer
:Atrox, I crashed about 40 times before finding the boat direction arrows. I was cussing out the game because clicking left and right of the boat itself did nothing. MOst people I think are used to control buttons *below* the action. I think, because the first crash happens so quickly, it would also help if the sinking-boat cutscene didn't "cover up" the controls, maybe that would clue people in a little faster.
I think the shopkeeper with the chest has to be looking away in order to swipe the key.
Rissa
:what's the password for the box in the cave?
Jack
:Where do I get the yallow Gem
Heather
:i cant figure out the letters AJIMPCG???
Think~Pink
:I had managed to get all the way through completely unaided... then I came to the boat chase.
I spent more time on that little scene, than I had on the rest of the game...curse those blasted rocks...arrrr ><
Eventually, I somehow managed to dodge that evilness and kill the bad guy...hurrah!! My sister is saved!!
This was a good little game though, even if the puzzles weren't that difficult...the chase was, (for me anyway). Thanks for posting it :o)
On another note, I loved the old school Commodore/ZX Spectrum loading screen at the beginning. A nostalgic reminder of those long loading times where you could order pizza, eat it, take a bath and get a drink before the game had fully loaded...ahhhh..those were the days ><

You have to click each letter in turn, each time pressing the lever to the left, and if the letter is correct, a green light will illuminate above it.
The password is an actual word...5 letters long. Think what kind of fish you are searching for....a sturgeon yes...but what kind of sturgeon?

The yellow gem is found inside the chest, next to the stall, on sturgeon island.
You will need a key...hmmm....who will have the key? The storekeeper...you are going to have to get it from him.

Kristen
:I honestly can't figure out the locked box with the yellow gem. I know what the answer is from reading the posts, but how do you enter it? I don't get the number/letter thing. Why do I have so much trouble on the easy parts???
Kristen
:Nevermind, I'm retarded.
Kristen
:I don't think my keyboard works for the boat chase...I've "sunk" 8 times now.
Kristen
:Alright...got it. That was so dumb. LOL!
Metal_mickey
:i'm just stuck on the platform with all the stalagmites...when i look at the loose stalagmite, he just says it seems loose, but i can't pick it up...now the bloke's just standing there like an idiot...waiting for me to figure out how to get the loose stalagmite...
Tze
:I can't chase that professor man.. I lose him every time.. any hint?
Prince of Persia
:I played this game before, and had much fun for a short while. Great game, bad graphics.
Think~Pink
:Tze, this was the bane of my life also.
The only advice I can give you, is to keep your eye on the direction the professors boat is going, and then click the corresponding red arrow to follow him.
Also, only hit the fire button, when his boat is directly in front of yours, or you will miss him.
It is quite difficult, trying to keep your eye on his boat and watching the red arrows at the same time, but after a few tries, you will get the hang of it. Good luck :o)
Think~Pink
:Metal_mickey
HINT: (click box to highlight/fade)
I think you have to crack the code first before you can progress with the stalagmites/stalactites.
Fiddlejock
:The chase at the end is the most poorly created action sequence EVER in a game. It's nothing short of frustrating. The explanation is terrible, then when you finally figure out what you're suposed to do, it takes forever to get the poorly laid out timing right. Piece 'o crap game.
Webby
:Worst voice acting ever!
LOLIEH88
:ARRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHH IM A PIRATE.COOL GAME KINDA EASY EXCEPT THE PART IN THE BOAT TO FIND THE ARROWS TOOK ME A FEW TRYS ARRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHH
Metal_mickey
:Ah so! thanks Think~Pink!
Kai
:where are the bolt cutters?
Think~Pink
:Kai:
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
You can find them outside the house. You have to do something first though, in order to be able to look for them...something to do with the other person in the screen with you
Chaz
:HELP!! Some1 said that the shopkeeper has the key 4 the chest..well I can't see it, and I've clicked everywhere on his stall...where is it?
