I thought I would start this thread because I can forsee a need for it. This is not an easy game. Although there are hotspots with labels displayed at the base of the screen, nearly everything can be looked at or interacted with. If you're stuck somewhere post here, and I would suggest that you describe all objects that you have in inventory - it is soooo easy to miss something along the way and you get stuck hours later.
The usual adventure gaming advice applies; save often etc. etc. I had a save file I called "about2Bstoopid" which I saved to before doing ANYTHING, because you can die in many (sometimes hilarious) ways. Look at everything before you interact with it/them, sometimes you may need to look twice. All the doors you find are locked, I guess because Grandad has senile paranoia, so you need to find a LOT of keys. I always use a notepad and pen to keep track of things you've found out but don't need the information just yet, and also to assist with the curse of gamers everywhere - the dreaded making of a map...<<shudder>>. The game will give you clues sometimes in the descriptions it gives after you've looked. Consider them carefully. Above all... enjoy! It is a Fun game.
Cheers.
