Muckraker  Posts: 228 Joined: 10 Sep 2008     | Uhm... can anyone give me a hint on the street fighter one? I got the quarter and tried "shoving it" in the machine to unjam it but although i'm sure it's the quarter i need to use i don't see how =/ any hints? |
Games Editor Posts: 4260 Joined: 20 Dec 2005 | Try the command "put." And you need to be more specific than just "machine." |

The game runs a Java applet. You might visit http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp and get the latest version of Java. That will also repair any Java plug-in issues you might have. |

Me too! I hate having things left uncompleted like that. |

Thanks for the link. |

this is driving me nuts. I'm pretty sure I know what object specifically you're referring to (don't wanna give it away to other people) but I've tried touching it, hitting it, playing with it, turning it on, moving it, taking it, switching it on, put the keys and the costume in it, tried getting it, opening, closing....and everything else, and nothing seems to work. I'm also fairly certain the dirt is not dirt, but by the life of me I can't take it with me, touch it, grab it, examine it anymore, answer the "is this really dirt?" question, nor grab anything else to take it with me... |
Games Editor Posts: 4260 Joined: 20 Dec 2005 | You're VERY close, caliostro. When you examine said object, there's a clue as to what you need to do in the description. Think about your senses. Edit: You're on the right track. This isn't about the first item you mention, but rather, the second - but you NEED the first item. |

No but the stupid thing took up a good two dozen of my moves. It would not recognise the word put. By put it thought I meant "wear". I eventually tried "insert" then bingo! User was banned for: The Second Annual Escapist Election: Part 1: Presidential Primaries. (Permanent) |

Lool thanks this game is really perfectionist in what comes to setences and verbs, well thanks =D trying to solve another riddle now xD |
Senior Editor  Posts: 2280 Joined: 9 Jan 2007   | I tried to make the language as forgiving as possible, but there are certain instances where fairly specific language is required. Welcome to text adventures. :) Also just wanted to point out that the number of moves you use does not count against you, so try everything. If folks are still having trouble finding the last ten points in a few days,I'll give you a hint, but let's give folks a while to try and find them first. |

Love the chicken suit, BTW. Think I can get a hint on how to open the door to the storage room? Edit: Never mind, I was being a dumbass. |
Senior Editor Posts: 2280 Joined: 9 Jan 2007 |
Well, it's locked, right? How do you normally get through a locked door? |
Games Editor Posts: 4260 Joined: 20 Dec 2005 | By the way, tons of kudos to Susan Arendt for putting this thing together. I know the amount of work that went into it (or rather, I can hazard a guess) and it turned out pretty awesome :D |

Heh, yeah...I was being a little too generic. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2070 Joined: 23 Jan 2008 |
What do you usually use to open your locked doors?
Erm... That was a bit unnecessary since I had long identified what it was without having the game tell me, but I got it lol. Also, there's a small glitch in the system where you can rack up as many points as you want (see spoiler bellow). It's not really huge, since the score you get doesn't really count for anything, but still. Who should I PM the details to, if anyone? For the record, I did get all 95 points. The "glitch" in question grants you 5 extra points per "run". |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3900 Joined: 4 May 2008 | One ghost to go, and I'm bamboozled. Any hints, however vague or pun-tastic (trust me, I love wordplay), about the bored ghost? |
BANNED Posts: 3486 Joined: 25 Aug 2008 | I'm currently playing through the Hitch-Hiker's Guide word game. Again. This time, instead of finishing it, I'm chucking fluff at the ceiling and striking the lamp with the toothbrush. Every time the game says stuff like "Well now, that didn't accomplish much did it?" or "Stop that!" I burst out in laughter.

It was a good bit of wordplay, regardless. |

I've seen a lot of people saying "You need to play this game", but any time I attempt to play a game it tells me to focus on getting out of the arcade. Any hints?
