List Of Adventure Games (Part 2)

Each "level" of Mishap is broken up into three sections: hidden object, "find the ghosts", and then a mini-game where you compete at something against the main ghost you're trying to capture for that level. Great sense of humor, cheesy voice acting (but it works given the atmosphere), and the mini-games aren't your typical HoG filler.

 

That was actually one of the few things I got to this weekend. I agree, especially when you have to sit through things multiple times. However, I did find the game rather interesting. And for those who expected it to be something like Myst or The 7th Guest, it's far from it. In fact, there's plenty of story and dialog, and so far not much puzzle solving, at least not in what I played.

 

I had just gotten into chapter 2. I was sick most of the weekend, so I wasn't to ambitious when it came to playing games or anything like that.

 

I'm going to spend some more time with it this weekend, assuming I don't get sick again. The developer has been asking me about a review, so I need to go going on that one anyway. I'll see if I can talk him into popping over here in the mean time to help you out

 

How long before you'll be able to start doing some tweaking on episode 2? I tried playing it again yesterday, and I was continually running into problems where the dialog boxes wouldn't close. I also ran into an issue where I got into the kitchen, and right when I found the laxatives the lady caught me and kicked me out. Even though it said I had the laxatives they were nowhere to be found in my inventory, and when I went back into the kitchen later I couldn't find them again. I really want to play this game, but these bugs are starting to get to me.

 

Guess they just have more patience (or time) then me I'll try giving it a go again. As for the laxative thing, I must not have seen her comments over the other dialog! However, when I went back to the kitchen after she wasn't there I didn't find the laxative. I'll check again next time I have a chance to play.

 

Awesome. Can't wait! I'm only critical of this stuff because I think you've got a good thing going here, and I want to see The Train have as polished an appearance for other players as it possibly can.

 

Actually, The Train Ep1 held my attention, which is more than I can say for 1112 Ep1. The Train might not be quite as polished, but as far as content I found it to be a more enjoyable game.

So I played some more at lunch today and I'm already stuck. I know I have to get those two people out of that room so I can search it, and I know how to deal with the guy, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the lady to leave. I already have what the hint told me I needed, by the way, I just don't know what to do with it.

Now back to the whole laxative thing for a minute. While the original problem I ran into might not be a bug, I still think there's a bit of an inconsistency in the way that it is handled. Let me explain. I go into the kitchen and retrieve the laxative, then exit the kitchen without her catching me. I go back into the kitchen and suddenly she appears and takes the laxative away. How did she know that I have it? I'm guessing that your criteria for this event is simply being in the kitchen, having the laxative in your possession, and her showing up. Unfortunately, that's not quite enough in my opinion. If you make it out of the kitchen "safely" once, she shouldn't be able to take the laxative away. Otherwise, you could also argue that she should be able to confiscate it in the dining car if you happen to have it when she appears. I realize it's not an important matter by any means, but I just figured I'd share my thoughts on that.

 

Thanks for the tip (which I have kindly omitted from my reply). I can't believe I didn't figure that one out. As for The Train Ep. 1, I can't wait to see the update.
