Journey to the Lost Isle Discussion (split #12)

When you find the jaw bone, a separate window pops up alerting you to that fact. When you get the thorns, I didn't get any notification. My advice is just to keep clicking on the panel until you get the thorns in your inventory...unless it's glitching. In that case...I don't know.

YAY, the Thorns finally showed up in my inventory. I read the darn Chapter 4 about 5 times before they showed up!

[Purple_monkfish]

phew, that took a while. Done finally!

[Karnatu]

I think we have to find Lilian and Mr Colchester or whatever his name is. Maybe that's what the second path is for.

[Meer]

Yes! Finally! My map reset and I was finally able to find that blasted bucket and finish repairing the silly boat. XD These maze puzzles drive me nuts.

I've said it once and I'll say it again: I really like the way they did steps in ToW where we had nice "to be continued" signs to know for sure we were done with the step. I'm really disappointed they didn't do that in this plot.

[Trilian8]

Maybe, just maybe, none of us are done this step yet. Either we all can't see something obvious (or really hidden) or TNT just didn't finish putting up this step yet. I agree, I'd feel much better if I got a "to be continued"!

Still no branch.


I'm really starting to think I'm missing a screen, or something. There is no way I haven't found the branch yet... I found everything else in the first hour-- the branch is missing completely!!

[satiran]

I can't believe I finally did it! *headdesk* Took me about 4-5 hours over 2 days! Definately worth it to map, I did it in Irfanview/Word and copy and paste, and added text boxes telling me which map led where.

I think TNT reset my maze as one of the maps from the mapping I did yesterday did not lead to the map I thought it went to... or maybe it was me botching things up

Sleep time now, I can rest in peace *tension headache ebbs away*

Double map. Triple map. Check that you tried all of the paths. Have you tried both paths from the ship?

[Rakumel]

Whoo! Finally I has the buckit!

....though it reset my map and I was plunked right down in the middle of it, which meant I had to wander around lost for a while. But hey, was able to get that last piece and get the boat floating again, so it's all good. And I was actually able to click on both paths leading from the ship instead of just one, so I'm assuming that was a glitch that's been cleared up.

Thanks for the help and moral support, everyone!

[amaggiejjj]

I've got all my items but can't find the darn boat! I feel like I'm going in circles. Any hints?

[Trilian8]

Keep trying amaggiejjj. Some screens are ALMOST identical. I have 3 rooms that are the same except for the placement of one little rock. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you! Good luck!

[Auttypie]

amaggiejjj, I walked away for a little while, then came back to it yesterday morning. I hate mapping so did about 30 minutes of random clicking, and there was the boat. Some of the paths are so close, you can feel like you are in a loop. Hang in there!

[Gitanesabr]

Well it took me 90 minutes or so to get through the maze. Mine DOES loop and it drove me crazy but I found all the pieces. Took forever to get back to the ship though.

Now we just sit and wait for Chapter 6 I guess.

[schlough]

Whoo! Finally I has the buckit!

Nice link.

Miraculously, once my map redrew itself, it only took me about 6 clicks to get my 3 remaining items and find the boat back. I love it when things work out nicely.
