    But, it does not work.

12. nokra says:

    where do you use the bug?

19. Anna says:

    November 1, 2009 at 6:40 am

    I can not collect the bug under the bed, even with the shotglass. It is not letting me pick it up. What do I do? I have more than enough room for it, but I still cannot capture it. Help me please.

20. Anna says:

    November 1, 2009 at 6:41 am

    Oops. Nevermind. ^_^ I am out and working on a walkthrough.

21. Mandy says:

    November 1, 2009 at 10:36 am

    cant work out the code for the safe…..cant do the bull & cow game!!!!!

22. SoDeF says:

    November 1, 2009 at 10:40 am

    @Mandy did you get the note clue Show

    from the garbage?

23. AB says:

    November 1, 2009 at 10:50 am

    Where do you have to click to see under the bed?

24. SoDeF says:

    November 1, 2009 at 10:58 am

    I think you need to take the top blanket off before you can see under the bed.

25. AB says:

    November 1, 2009 at 11:16 am

    Thanks, SoDeF!

26. Mandy says:

    November 1, 2009 at 11:25 am

    Yes I got the note but still cant work it out

27. Mandy says:

    November 1, 2009 at 11:34 am

    is the safe code the same in each game?

28. SoDeF says:

    November 1, 2009 at 11:38 am

    Safe code is not the same…. this is how I suggest working it out

    Show

    start from the clue that gives you 6 positions (e.g., 2b4c, 3b3c, 4b2c); those will be the 6 numbers that you need. From there you can figure out what the remaining clues have in common, and the positions by “bull” and “cow”

29. Mandy says:

    November 1, 2009 at 12:00 pm

    Great, thanks, I have now opened the safe, where does the blue key go?

30. Mandy says:

    November 1, 2009 at 12:04 pm

    where above the bed does the Show

    bug go?

31. Ed says:

    November 1, 2009 at 1:34 pm

    Don’t know how to get the last 3 bullets.

    As for the bug: The small pic at the top left of this thread should be a hint, I guess.

32. Ed says:

    November 1, 2009 at 1:35 pm

    Add on:
    Guess they (the bullets) are in the cans?

33. izzzy says:

    November 1, 2009 at 2:17 pm

    what do you do with the bug?

34. Ed says:

    November 1, 2009 at 2:20 pm

    Ok. For the bullets Show

    you need to give the poster lady some drinks and touch her. Very naughty.

35. Ed says:

    November 1, 2009 at 2:54 pm

    Oh gosh. Who would examine a Show

    toilet brush for a bullet?

36. Reka says:

    November 1, 2009 at 3:04 pm

    I can’t find the 15th bullet. Show

    I’m playing on medium difficulty, if that makes any difference. Already got one from the beer poster, as well as the one on the top of the green pipe. Was I supposed to get more than one from the poster? Is there one in the vent above the bed, and if so, how do I get it?

    Btw, Ed, thanks for that hint about the Show

    toilet brush.

37. Reka says:

    November 1, 2009 at 3:36 pm

    6 rockets shot and I’m still not out! Sheesh!

    Show

    There are two bullets in the vent above the bed. To get to it, stack the two pillows on the bed. (Dunno how I finally managed to do that – I just ended up frantically clicking the pillows.) The first one is in easy reach. To get the other one, use the yellow bug you can trap under the bed. (Get the shot glass from the table, turn it upside down, wait for the bug to appear, and click it with the glass.)

    To get the thing(s) from inside the green pipe, Show

    put the blue key into the bullet hole above the toilet, then turn the key. You can now open that panel on the pipe. This gets you a bag of suspicious white powder, and two more bullets.

38. Reka says:

    November 1, 2009 at 3:39 pm

    Power of posting: Show

    You need to get rid of any incriminating evidence before you can leave. Get rid of it the same way you’ve gotten rid of everything else so far, and hope the sewer system is up to the load. :)

39. Ed says:

    November 1, 2009 at 4:01 pm

    @Reka
    That’s funny because I did Show

    clean up before I left by coinsidence. Not that I’m a “clean freak”. *smile*

    I am on the “easy” set game, so… I am not sure which walkthroughs to use. Haha, sorry but could someone help me, please???

    Walkthrough (for medium difficulty)

    Step 1: Show

    Get the fork and use it to unlock your handcuffs. Put the fork back.

    Now, the general strategy will be:
    Show

    1. open the safe
    2. make a rocket-launcher
    3. fix the TV
    4. collect some bullets + get a rocket + shoot at door
    5. repeat step 4 five more times (for a total of 6×3 = 18 bullets, folks, so don’t go blindly collecting bullets)
    6. get rid of the incriminating evidence and get the heck out of Dodge.

    Safe:
    Show

    Turn to the table. Click the bottom-left corner of the Extractor poster, then the bottom-right corner, then the middle of the left edge, then the right edge, and finally the middle, to reveal a safe with a six-digit combination and a keyhole.

    Still in the table view, click the front edge of the trashcan repeatedly until you get a piece of paper with a list of six-digit numbers.

    Turn to the toilet. Pick up the book to the left of it and read it for the rules of the “bulls and cows” game. Put the book back.

    Turn to the bed. Lift both pillows and remove the bedspread. (You may have to pick up the bullet under the left pillow before it will let you do this.) Click under the front edge of the bed. Get the gold key from behind the left leg.

    Use the paper from the trashcan and the bulls and cows game rules to get the code for the safe. Enter the code on the number dial, zoom out, then use the gold key to open the safe.

    Rocket-launcher:
    Show

    (Table view) Pick up the handcuffs. Click on the stool to flip it upside-down, then put the handcuffs over the legs. Click the stool to move it to the bottom-right corner of your view. Get the wine bottle from the floor behind the table and smash it against the edge of the table to break off the bottom. Turn right to the door. Put the broken bottle on the handcuffs.

    TV:
    Show

    Click any button to turn on the TV. Adjust the antennae until the static is replaced with a show about a guy shooting a rocket. To save your sanity, turn off the TV (press any button) until you need a rocket. To get a rocket, wait until one appears on the screen, then click it.

    Bullets:

    Table view Show

    – on the table, to the left of the ashtray.
    – in the bullet hole to the right of the D of AC-DC.
    – in the safe.
    – in one of the beer cans. Pick up all three cans and turn to the bed view. Have the girl in the poster drink the contents of the cans (click her mouth with the cans). Poke her nipple and quickly grab the bullet from her mouth.

    Door view Show

    – on top of the green pipe. To get it, click the pipe just below it repeatedly until the bullet falls, then move the coal out of the way.
    – on the bottom right elbow of the pipe.
    – two of them behind or in (can’t quite tell) that panel on the pipe. To open the panel, put the blue key (from the safe) into the hole in the wall above the toilet (after removing the bullet from said hole, obviously).

    Toilet view Show

    – behind the toilet paper.
    – in the middle of the toilet paper.
    – in the toilet brush (click the little bump on the left until it comes out on the right).
    – in the water tank of the toilet, on top of the black part.
    – in the keyhole high up on the wall. Open the toilet lid and click inside the toilet to stand on it so you can reach.

    Bed view Show

    – under the left pillow.
    – under the bed:
    — 1 behind right leg.
    — smash all the red bugs, wait for yellow bug to appear.
    – two in the grate. To reach it, stack the pillows – just keep clicking until it happens, I guess (haven’t been able to find a consistent method).
    — first is in plain view.
    — have the yellow bug from underneath the bed get the second: get the shot glass from the table. Flip it upside down and use it to catch the yellow bug. Put the bug in the grate and wait until it pushes the bullet down.

    Assembling & shooting a rocket
    Show

    You’ll need the matchbox (on the table). To get a match, make sure there’s not already one in your inventory (not even a burnt-out one), click the front of the box to open it, then click the matchsticks to pick up one. Don’t light the match (by striking it on the side of the matchbox) until you’re ready to shoot the rocket.

    -Get a rocket (from the TV, see above).
    -Open three bullets – double-click on one to view it, click once to turn it, then click on either end in quick succession to open it.
    -Arm the rocket: double-click the rocket, then add three bullets worth of gunpowder to fill it.
    -Put the rocket into the launcher (door view).
    -Light the fuse using a match (table view).

    To get rid of used and/or incriminating inventory:
    Show

    -Chuck them in the toilet. If necessary, flush. Repeatedly.

    When you’ve shot off your last rocket:
    Show

    Make sure the bag of white powder is safely in the sewer system, click the small bit of door left in the middle of your rocket-holes, then click again to get the heck out of there.

    Bulls & Cows
    Show

    Each row of the paper from the trashcan is one round of play, i.e. a guess (the six-digit number) and the results (#b#c). Find the row where #b + #c = 6; this gives you all the digits, just not their placement. Now, write down each six-digit number, using x’s for digits that are not in the solution. Write the number of bulls in parentheses after each row. For example, if the paper has:

    134862 2b3c
    427519 2b1c
    368154 0b6c
    764159 1b3c
    379208 1b1c
    025917 1b1c
    948512 2b2c

    Write it down as:
    13486x (2)
    4xx51x (2)
    368154 (0)
    x6415x (1)
    3xxxx8 (1)
    xx5x1x (1)
    x4851x (2)

    If you’re playing medium difficulty, there should be a row which has a (0) – all the digits are in the solution, but none of them are in the correct spot. Using that row, cross out the digit placements that are known to be incorrect. Repeat for each number until you’ve worked out the solution.

    In our example, we know the 3 is not in the first column, so cross it anywhere it occurs in the first column, i.e. the fifth row. However, the 5th row had one correct number & placement, which must be the 8 in the last column. So circle the 8 if it occurs in the sixth column, and cross it out if it occurs anywhere else. Also cross out any number in the 6th column that isn’t an 8 (in this case, there’s only that four in the 3rd row). Going back to the 3rd row (with 0 bulls), cross out 6s in the 2nd column, 8s in the 3rd, 1s in the 4th, 5s in the 5th, and 4s in the 6th column. This leaves one number not crossed out in the 4th row, the 4 in the 3rd column, and that row had one correct placement, so it must be that 4. So circle any 4 that occurs in the 3rd column (hint: row 1), cross out any 4 that occurs elsewhere (rows 2 and 7), and cross out any number other than 4 in the 3rd column (the 5 in row 6 – the 8s in rows 3 and 7 are already crossed out).

    Keep going at it this way, crossing out numbers when you know they’re not in that column, and circling them when you know they’re in the correct spot, until each row has as many circled numbers as the number in parentheses at the end. You may end up with process of elimination for the last number. Then just read off the circled numbers left to right to get your combination. (In the example, it’s 634518.)

    Now, for hard mode!

    More bulls & cows – Show

    Sometimes, it doesn’t give you a convenient 0 bulls 6 cows row, in which case you might have to guess and see where it leads you. Either that, or just restart the game to see if you get an easier puzzle – if you attempt to find the safe code first thing, you won’t have lost much time.

    On easy, it seems to give you the solution outright: there will be one row with 6 bulls 0 cows.

    I haven’t been able to solve the one hard level I tried.

48. Juli says:

    November 1, 2009 at 9:30 pm

    Differences for easy mode:
    Show

    The bulls & cows puzzle is dead easy.

    Show

    After you get out, it says “no final cartoon for easy mode” (or something like that).

49. Juli says:

    November 1, 2009 at 9:37 pm

    I checked easy mode three more times, and my conclusion is that in this mode, the Show

    bulls and cows “puzzle” is only a matter of finding the bit of paper in the trash and interpreting it correctly using the booklet by the toilet. I had one line labeled “6b0c” every time.

    Oh, and regardless of level, you can get the Show

    “postergirl” falling-down drunk by giving her the vodka. She recovers once you’ve turned away, though.

50. DNOMN8R says:

    November 1, 2009 at 9:53 pm

    Dang, Bulls&Cows is HARD in hard mode. Keep getting into inescapableties (I know that’s not really a word, but….).
