Raving Manor

I definitely recommend this adventure game! True, it's much different than,say, the "Broken Sword" games, which were basically interactive movies. There, I was able simply to lie back and have fun. Raving Manor, on the other hand, DEFINITELY requires the use of your brain cells. But once you're into the game a bit, it DOES get spookier and your motivation to solve tough puzzles definitely goes up. [but, compared to some of the "doozies" in "Antrim Escape" ( great game, but man, compared to THOSE puzzles, at least you won't be tempted to throw your iPhone against the wall, when you try & solve them lol!) I would have given this 4 stars 5 but, I too, am experiencing a problem (bug?) with an item I had to temporarily "drop" which then proceeded to vanish (& with my luck, I'll just bet it's vital to finishing the game. Ha ha) However, imho, easy access to "help" is a huge benefit. It's awesome that you DON'T have to "google" for hours trying to find a free walkthrough! Accessible help for an adventure game makes up for any other difficulties big time! And...if you're really stuck, you can dependably count on the dev promptly responding to your emails. (I LOVE Indy developers! It's so personalized dealing with them) OK ( SPOILER ALERT): (an edit here)to find tunnels, first go to basement. Just follow instructions on website. Once you're in, look for a certain famous tapestry in nearby room and simply "use" something on it to pull it down. Voila: tunnels.(as far as I remember you need "other" key to open. And to get "other" key...check help-site. Suffice to say that "several" steps are necessary...;) To get flask, just go to lab ( as far as I remember). Then use flask with cheese to get mouse,which will, in turn find "blue, glinting" object for you. I just sent off email to dev, but forgot to ask re: combinations to safe and trunk. Can ANYONE PLEASE,PLEASE assist with opening safe &/or trunk? (i just read about the need for crowbar here. I too would love any hints on how to find it. Or is this just a rumor?;) AGAIN ANY help getting these all important combinations will be much appreciated by many of us! Thanks SO much!!!:) I'll return in kind if I can!

Did not care for this one - could of done so much more - open drawers or closets - could of been good with more items to pick up - little more to it
