   What I have so far (a fair bit actually so this may be part one of a walkthrough)
   Show

   Talk to hole in wall (barred hole – stranger) about everything. Go ‘back to city’
   Go to cathedral, down passageway to right, listen to guy, get books. Go outside.
   Go to excavation site (top right light), look in ashes to get bucket, go back to city.
   Go to Vermillion Border (top left light on city page), talk to guard, show books to guard, get to go outside.
   Click on Stack of bags to get a bag.
   Go into building, talk to guy, get pen and paper. Go outside, then back to inside (bottom of the screen and not in the house). Return to prison block (mid left light) and give pen and paper to prisoner, receive plans.
   Go back outside (top left light again), go to forest and talk to people to get clothes. Go out of forest.
   Go in house to visit writer again, show blueprints, receive speech. Leave house and go back inside to main city once again.
   Go to hall of truth and talk to clerk.
   Show clothes to clerk.
   Show speech to clerk.
   You end up inside with a bunch of people that debate stuff all day. Pick the following options.
   “I bought some amber once”
   “Any of you lot bought amber”
   “Things are expensive these days”
   “I can’t afford getting around”
   “Erm… A car and all that”
   “Oh I do all the time, really”
   “Don’t you like them? They’re useful!”
   “Dunno – it’s just so unhappy”
   “Hire clowns to ride them”
   “Yeah! It’s silly”
   Now you can use the tubes, so go to the station and talk to guard, go in
   Talk to cleaner, get ‘sucking machine’. Look at map at back to pick destination.
   Go to hearthill factory and talk to leader – need proof and they will build rocket. Go ‘back to the tubes’ and pick ‘mines’
   Go to house (managers office) and talk to manager to fail to get a job.
   Go to pub, use drink on drunks. Listen to them then go back outside.
   Go back to managers office and talk to him again to get into the mines.

   And that is as far as I have got as of now. Give me a little bit more and I’ll see what I can do :)

   Go up, go back inside, go to station, go to map, go to hearthill factory and show both photos to the protest leader. He takes you to factory manager. He says you need a launch pad and gives you the sketch of it. You end up at the tube map.
   Go to city, go outside, go to forest.
   Show guards sketch and they take you to launchpad.
   Can look at hologram for some info.
   Leave the pad, go back inside, to station, to tubes, to factory.

    So ben, did you write that walkthrough, all by yourself?
    Re: Comment 5. ben – July 30,2007 – 3:48 am
    (Next you’ll be saying you authored the game, too.)

    In all fairness, you should give credit to the author of the walkthrough – – – that would be me.

    I posted my (first ever, btw) originally written walkthrough first on:
    29/7/07 01:32
    at http://escapetheroom.blogspot.com/2007/07/bodilies.html
    then on

    at http://games.forbored.com/2007/07/bodilies/
    then on

    at http://www.lazylaces.com/article.asp?p=2818

    Here, I’ll show you what I mean.

    Today, while playing Five Beast Pagoda (found here at freegamesnews) http://www.freegamesnews.com/en/?p=2358, I notified my friends at lazylaces.com of a walkthrough posted at this site.

    Sure, it would have been easy to do what you did, ben, just copy the walkthrough and post it there – but, as an author of a walkthrough, I knew the time it takes to develop and prepare it for posting, not to mention the ingenuity, at having figured out the puzzles – a walkthrough author should be credited with all of the above.

    So, in sharing the news of the walkthrough I found – I credited the author (BoMuChan – September 2,2007 – 9:07 am – comments 10-15) and posted the link it could be found at, rather than copy the work and add my name, as if I had written it myself.

    Next time, hopefully you ben, will behave more ethically.

    The music in the cathedral is from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time!
