I thoroughly enjoyed this game.. The use of the chemicals was an excellent idea. I did complete the game though without readin the secret paper or opening the safe in the office. Were these extra?
Well done 5/5

I need a walk through for this game. I can't get past the bit with the fingerprint scanner. How do I get the fingerprint?
I also think that this game is great and I give it a 5 out of 5.

@ GAMER!

Im pretty sure you use the Knife in the Torture Room to cut off the dead guards finger, then use the finger on the Finger Print machine.

Also a 5 outta 5.

I have really enjoyed this game so far. I haven't finished yet. I'm stuck in the real house right now. Can't seem to figure out the new riddle. Anyone out there who can offer assistance email me (jenb_79@netzero.net). I agree with Steve. I have noticed a few errors but since it is a "mouse friendly" game they haven't been a problem (except that when you are in the dream house you say take flying duck after you have already put it in the basement and it doesn't actually reappear in your inventory). But in the end that actually helped me figure out the riddle. Great game, however now that I'm stuck I can't seem to get a response from the writer???

This is an excellent game. A lot of work must have gone into it. The different combinations of the potions provides a plethora of options!

As ever in these games, it pays to use/examine everything and use anything on everything if you ever get stuck!

Well done, Nick! Look forward to seeing more of your work...

Now I'm offically stuck. I am in Uncle's house and have put the fossil on the fireplace; put the plant under the running faucet; put the duck in the basement, but cannot figure out how to "bring light to darkness"....

I did try and light the candle in the bathroom because it says "there are no windows and it's dark", but this is an error here because the discription says there is a small window!

Of course I've gone and left my GPT back at the corporation building, so I can't seem to go and get a chemical of any kind....

Ok, I FINALLY figured it out.

!!!SPOILER ALERT!!! !!!SPOILER ALERT!!!

The problem is that the description of the bathroom
is misleading. It says there is no window and that
it's dark, but the it also says there is a small window.

Also, the trick is not to light the candle first, you
have to put it on the floor and THEN light it! Very
confusing.

Still it's a great game though!!!

I've got the full run of Area C and I made acid in the flask as I thought it might get through the security door to the areaC control room. But that didn't work and now i'm stuck with a flask of acid that i can't use or pour out. What do I do and is there a walkthrough somewhere?

What a truly delightful game. Reminds me a bit of the old "leather goddesses of phobos" if any of you remember that one. The puzzle with the chemicals is a great addition to the game. I haven't finished it yet, I'm stuck in the Uncle's House (second one, not the dream one) and haven't figured out what to do with the dead seagull, sheet, flaming bottle and crucifix. Excellent so far though and thoroughly enjoyable.

Comment by Martin Greaves

16 Jun 2009

Also, anyone have any idea what to do with the bedroll? Or even if it is useful?

SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT

Ive made a hole in the ceiling to allow water to fall onto the ivy.
Ive lit the fire and dropped the crucifix.
Ive lit the rag in the bottle of vodka and left it in the dark bathroom.
Ive left the seagull in the basement.

This corresponds to the riddle in the desk but nothing is different. Any clues anyone? I dont want a solution, just a subtle hint in the right direction.

Thanks

I'm loving this game, but I'm also completely confused about the uncle's house, with the dead seagull and other items. I've put things in a series of different combinations but nothing has changed. Any possible hint would be helpful, I'm at my wit's end!

01 Nov 2009

for who is stuck in the cell, here is some help:
first do you know that uyou can pick up the cot?
just pick up the cot by typing get cot.
now a grille is revealed.
pick the fork up, and use that item on the grille to pry the screws loose.
now go west, pick up the cot, and use that on the forcefield.
also, do this also in your sell.
this will break the forcefields.
in the beginning, you are in darkness, but there is a shape.
pick that up, it's a paper clip.
use that on the handcuffs.

This was a very enjoyable game. I particularly appreciate that the puzzles were not 'pick the right verb' puzzles. I get frustrated at IF games that force you to spend half of your time attempting to lift...no, slide...no, move...no, pull...no, push...etc., when you know exactly what it is that you have to do.

I also liked the double puzzle of the house. Clever.

Well done.



SPOILER!!!!
It is odd that there are no dead bodies upstairs, and no evidence of where everyone went up there.

anyone that needs help with the houses heres the answer
in the first one put the plant in the sink. put the plaster bird in the basement. drop the candle in the bathrrom then use ciggerete lighter. drop the dead thing in the firplace(forgot wut the dead thing was). then go into the master bedroom and talk to your uncle

second one: shoot the puddle. grab the chairleg and use it on the fireplace then light it with the light then put the finger that you have on it (confused me for a while). put the dead bird in the basement. use the rag with the bottle then the lighter with the bottle and drop it in the bathroom. you can get out now. hope i helped again!!!

Cheers Nick,
Thoroughly enjoyed this one - really loved the whole teleport thing as it saved sooooo much time. An excellent idea that I might just "use" when I write one myself.

I liked the different endings like Mansion, a nice touch, thanks.

Please keep up the good work.

Yeah, I found it upstairs in the lighthouse, I missed it the first time I visited. I finished, but I wasn't able to figure out what to do with the paper. I think it has the code to the safe in a hidden message on it since it has a chemical smell to it, but none of the chemicals I mixed would do anything to it.

Comment by Tony

11 Mar 2010

I think there is a chemical mix that works on the paper. I think if you examine the paper it offers a clue. I skipped it the first time and finished without bringing the corporation down but I went back and did it on a second go.

Great game. Just wondering though I read up in the comments that there are different endings. Just wondering what these were. I got the yay you left the island with the DVD ending and I'm guessing there is a you left the island without the DVD ending. But is there one where you have to use the 70 odd bullets you have left? Just thinking it would be cool if you got to shoot everyone that was responsible for killing your uncle.

Everything I liked about the original, times two! The potions, the GPT, and the computer repair sequence were my favorite parts. I think I may have a 'fixit junkie' gene; it's satisfying to find all the parts and get something working again, moreso than sighting in and blowing stuff up.

As with the first Mansion, I again had one "big stuck" part - and confess I'd still be shuffling a dead seagull between basement and fireplace (It's a bird / But it's also dead!) if not for looking here and cheating on that bit. My thanks to trentnt on that point. :)

And thanks as well to Nick Dablin for putting together a pair of engaging games. I don't know if it's come up before, but is there any chance of a Mansion III?

It might be that I'm new at text adventure games, but I'm really stuck. I can't find the hard drive or Bill, or even the detention center. I've checked all the corpses available. I also can't get the brief case, or get east of the hangar (I'm assuming the computer needs to be put together for that to work) and I can't get past the security door blocking the area c control room. I think I've looked at and examined everything, and tried using everything with everything else, but I just can't figure it out. Is there a walkthrough anywhere?

Comment by sarah

15 Mar 2012

Davidioan, you need a processor, a hard drive, a motherboard and sticks of ram to fix the computer. The motherboard is in the same room as the report and the manual, once you've read these you will know how to fix the computer and where to find the hard drive. If you go east from this room you will find the ram and a locker which contains the processor. If you haven't already found the key which opens this locker then examine the man in the cafeteria. Hope this helps.

hello, I have got the computer working and obtained the Disk. Nothing seems to work after this. I tried to use the disk with the Security Computer / Ventilation Computer / Computer but nothing works... Can someone help please?

Comment by sarah

15 Mar 2012

Rahul, do you mean you've tried to use the disc on the computer you had to build? That's not the computer you need to use the disc on, the computer you're looking for is behind the sturdy metal door which can be found in the room where the report, manual and motherboard are. To open the door you will need to make one of the potions in the lab, the one that controls muscle strength, you'll find how to make this on the blackboard in the lab, once you've made it you need to put it in the hydroscope rather than the reactor. Use the flask when you're next to the door and it will give you the super strength to break open the door. You open the door by examining it. Then use the disc on the computer you find in the room you've revealed which will load necessary information onto it and go back to the ventilation computer and use the disc on there which will disable the ventilation system.

Comment by sarah

21 Mar 2012

Allan, yes, you need to make a chemical to put out the fire, the blackboard in the lab will tell you how to make the chemical mixture that varies in temperature, when you've made it you need to put it in the hydroscope to make it cold then you'll be able to use it on the fire. Hope this helps, please let me know if you're stuck on anything else.

Allan, if you've definitely fixed the boat, used glue to hold the driftwood in place and attached the crucifix, rope and sheet to it, then I think all you have to do is type 'take boat' when you're stood next to it on the deck, if that doesn't work then try 'use boat'. Hope that helps, you're right at the end now so don't give up!

21 Mar 2012

Rahul, you've done all you need to do with the dvd now, just keep hold of it as it effects the outcome of the game. Now you just need to get out of the building, have you found a way to get to the crane, take the battery, recharge it and refit it? Once you've done that you can use the crane to help you get out of the facility. Post again if you're struggling with any of this.

Sooz, the key is in the security locker which can be found in the high-tech medical facility where you went to charge the crane battery. If you're not sure which numbers to choose to open the safe then make sure you've examined the table in the guard's room downstairs.

Comment by sarah

08 Apr 2012

Sooz, do you mean the fire in your uncle's cottage (the real one that you find yourself in when you've solved the puzzle of the dream cottage and spoken to your uncle's ghost)? If so you need to find something made of wood in the room that leads off the kitchen and then use it and the lighter you'll find upstairs to make a fire. Once you've done this remember you'll still need to put something that was once alive (maybe something you already have in your inventory) in front of the fire. Hope this helps.
