to get a combination of 10 digits in 5 trials is almost impossible ……… this is silly
i really started to hate this game
like a couple of others i am stuck in lindon hall looking for the hall plans. i found the book and nothing happens
Help!! I am still stuck on level 4 with the green blocks that are supposed to go into the shape of a letter 4. Won’t someone please help with this puzzle?
Casey,
Hi, if I am thinking about the same book you are you have to drag the book onto the puzzle piece and go from there. My problem is I get confused as to what level I was on because some of the levels go into the same places but you have to do different things. I hope this helps.

Hey I am also stuck on the red box puzzle in the ladies room, can’t do anything else but complete it, this is so stupid and annoying it’s not even fun anymore…..I number them and find two every go, but as soon as you get one wrong you have to start all over again, rubbish. Oh and whoever was asking about the male hair in the stage room it is on the carpet, nearish the bottles, its very very small.
Oh and the green blocks, it’s kinda hard but my advice is this…..start with the seven blocks that go downwards, then add the little odd ones, then do the seven along and then do the ones that go up…..erm sounds confusing….yikes, also worry about the little ones afterwards, and sometimes you will need to move a whole row just to get one block in the right place and then just move them back where they came from……REALLY CAN’T DO THIS STUPID, STUPID JEWELLERY BOX !!!!!!!!!
Susan,
The only thing I can tell you is you have to clear out the center squares. I tried to figure out a way I could tell you step for step but it was even confusing to me I was the one doing it. I can give you the first few steps I make and maybe that will help you. Show
Good luck!
Jackie
Lisa,
I got a pencil and piece of paper and wrote down my first round of numbers so I knew what numbers I had put in what places. Show
Hope this helps.
Jackie
Susan,
up page from here [ entry 72 ] is a link to a guide. it helped me solve the blocks that are supposed to look like a #4.
Linda,
it’s a matter of sliding the pins along the strings as well as moving them here and there until all the strings are green.
Jackie,
thanks for trying to show me but the editor fixed my mistake. lol
now i’m stuck on the sliding box. even with the the walkthrough, i can’t seem to figure it out.
well …. I just uninstalled the game and I really don’t wana think about it.
I used to like Sherlock Holmes stories but those guys gona make me hate it like hell. I’m not complaining about the hard puzzles …… but you need some time to solve one of those. I spent 30 mins exactly trying to solve the damned red box puzzle with 10 digits in it in 5 tries and I restarted the level more than 5 times and still I couldn’t do it. I did it only once by luck and I was faced by another complicated puzzle that needs another 30 mins and I had barely 10 mins coz I spent my whole time struggling against the code. I have some nice adventure games waiting for me out there. I advice you to just uninstall it and get a nicer game. Better luck next time for those who spent their money on this.
Maybe until they make a cheat or something for this game, til that time I will think (THINK not for sure) about playing it again.

Ans 72 (walk thru) after step 3 you have 6 rows, does old col 1 now become col2 if so you can only push it down once and you end up with 6 rows after move 8. if not and you move existing col2 down twice and follow 5,6,7,8, you still have only 6 columns ,not 7??
Sorry, the above message is regarding Lod Lindon’s Office in the walk thru.
This is a tough game. I am now having difficulty with the beakers. Anyone else there or completed? I cant figure out what to do. As far as i can figure out you can only come up with 2,3, or 5L and none of those seem to work. What am I doing wrong? Also it wont even sit on the scale, is it supposed to while you are trying to figure out the correct level or only when you have found the right one. Grrr!
I wish there was a way to describe the four and the pin puzzle but really it is just trial and error. You have to slide the pins and pull them down and such until they are all green. the more you move the easier is it to see. And the four? Well i still dont really know how I did it. I think I did it differently both times I attempted.
With the beaker (4L) you need to Show
where is vincents message
Hi!
Thanks to everyone for their help. I didn’t uninstal the game, I had it removed. And the strategy guide because it was no help. I wrote to BF and they credited me. I don’t mind a challenge but I like puzzles that are not left to gues work. The MCF series have hard puzzles but they can be bypassed for a five minute time penalty. I think that is reasonable. It’s a pity because the game had a lot of positive elements. Still, here’s to the next lot of games I buy with my exchange coupon. Good luck to you all.
Just in relation to the red box puzzle….it is really not that hard. I spent FOREVER trying and then did something really silly, i read the clue.
It says, NO NUMBER is repeated in the combo… So, if use use 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 as suggested previously, as you get green lights on numbers click all the rest up by one, however, if for example numbers 3 and 5 get a green light first go, when you click the others up, the numbers that would click up to 3 and 5, click up twice. then ensure that the other red numbers dont match these double clicked numbers. if they do adjust accordingly.
I have tested this and the puzzle will usually come out in 2 or three goes.
bonjour
je suis francaise et realise ce jeu en VO (anglais)
je suis coincée aux 3 blasons du niveau 7 quel sont les 3 blasons (shields) à trouver
merci
Thank you to Matt in post 119. Worked like a charm.
What books are to be clicked in the Linden Hall puzzle?
Can anyone tell me how to find the plan of the Hall at Lord Lindon’s?
I’ve tried about 5 times now – nothing happens when I click the painting on which the lamp is illuminating!
I am trying to work on the puzzle with the green squares behind the painting. Any help?
I have all the clues and have linked the suspect time wise clue wise all the green lines etc etc there is no other murderer, but it doesn’t say i’ve finished the game or anything like that, and there’s not anymore to do.
This is a complete walkthrough. Made me very happy!
Hi everyone, sorry to look so stupid but i’m stuck on the picture with the paint brush, water and sponge… What the hell do i do?? I’ve tried everything. When i looked at the walkthrough it says:
Look close at painting at right corner. Use paint brush on water pitcher.(How do i do this???)
Use (click-hold-wipe) the brush all over the painting.
Then use (click-hold-wipe) the sponge to remove the superficial paint to uncover the picture of Mary.
Thanks,
V. :)
with the white and black blocks im sure its possible because i did it but im stuck on the last level hahhahhahaaha
I am having a problem at Scotland Yard and cannot get the suspects folder to do anything, I can’t bring the next suspect up or open a file from it. It highlights like it will do something but when clicked will do nothing at all. Has anyone had this problem?
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.
After playing this game for several hours I’ve decided that its not worth it to try to continue since it is stressful under the short amount of time given to complete each level. Each time you retry a level you must repeat steps(because of the way game saves are set up). This is annoying. It could have been a fun game, but I think most people will be too annoyed with it to tolerate it for more than a few hours. I rarely pitch games, but this one is getting put in file 13. There are too many other games out there without the annoyances this one has.
HELP!!! I’M STILL STUCK ON DECODING THE LETTER. I’VE READ ALL OF THE POSTINGS AND I STILL DON’T KNOW WHAT i’M DOING WRONG. WHAT COMMA AM I SUPPOSE TO CLICK? I’VE GOT ALL OF THE WORDS CORRECT.
I’m stuck at Red LOck BOx…
Can anyone’s help me….
Plezz…
If the red box/string/computer box puzzles each take 30 minutes, how is anyone supposed to complete the entire level in 30 mins! I’ve spent 20 mins just on the red box puzzle and only ever got 1 number right. I have solved it many times but then had to continually restart the level because the time ran out. This game would definitely be much better with no time limits. I will definitely be uninstalling it. While I do enjoy a good challenge, the frustration of this game is just not worth it..and this is with the walkthrough !
Where are the thin cigars in the Richmond House Hideout?
Does anyone know how to unlock the red box with all the tumblers? The numbers seem to be random and I have been trying to unlock it for hours on end with no luck. The worst part is you only get 5 tries at it before it resets. Help Please!!!
John,
! started writing the numbers down for each try. I still takes a while sometimes but not 4 hours good luck

Not really, there’s a word missing there before “leave the knife” which I think is really BRING the knife but I can’t seem to make anything fit. Some more help would sure be appreciated.
How the heck do I move on from level 1. I did everything and there are no more locations on the map to enter. I have started a new game at least a dozen times thinking I forgot something. This is so frustrating. How do I move to level 2???
When I remove the portrait and find the safe which should have the feather in it, there is nothing for me to do. I looked at the walk through cheat and my safe doesnt even look like that. It just has zeros and arrows but no option to do anything. Help!!!
