Past

You play "Past" with the aide of a magic magnifying glass, which lets you see back in time, an ability which, it turns out, and Sherlock Holmes will testify, is a huge bonus in helping you to escape the room [subbed by subzero & f00].

Having trouble getting started on the game....?

HINT: (click box to highlight/fade)

It took me the longest time to work out that I could open the drawer by using/combining the pen with the paper, you just need to leave them combined whilst you do it. You can then take the pen back after you have retrieved the contents of the drawer.

I can't work out the heart code, I have seen what's hidden, but I don't know how to apply it.

Can't seem to find the tri-angle shape to put into the box --
Where is the color combination for the box on the desk?

To plug in dryer you need attachment to go on the end of the pen

Bah! I was flying through this one and have hit a wall. No idea what to do with

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)

The car (battery inserted) and the razor knife. I assume they work together to get me the final square piece...but no clue how.

Use magifyer on wall with desk and bin showing. Cut hole with knife and put car in.

Can help no more, things to do!

Good game! I didn't make the connection between putting the pen in the paper pad and opening the drawer either, thought something was supposed to happen with the pad! The rest of the game was pretty plain sailing though.

Grrrr! I've done everything but am missing the last item (a key maybe?). Oh well, it's getting late and I'll try again tomorrow.

Great game. Loved it.

The final key..

There is a brown panel on the wall. There are three shapes - circle, triangle & square. Around the room you will find the matching shapes in the form of cardboard?

You need to match them up BUT first use the magnifying glass on the shapes in the panel. You'll notice they were once painted on in a different order. Now you can match the shapes up & receive the final key!
