Yeah Si, don’t stress out. I always say this to myself after bashing my head against the wall and tearing handfulls of hair out.
I, like you, have zero tolerance for cryptic puzzles and this game would have found itself in the garbage if not for the Forum. (I think the classic is the process of making spider nectar in one of the walkthroughs being described as “OBVIOUS”, took the cake.)
So now I try doing each of the dungeons myself, when I hit a snag, find the walkthrough and print it out to see where I went wrong.
You can always book in for a session with our resident stress councillor (Wyvern) before ending it all and the other veterans have vast knowledge to answer questions almost spontaneously.
I take heart when I think “Matt, you can’t play this game, you’re hopeless”, then think that the Forum has 29000+ posts and suppose that maybe others can’t do it either.
Best game I’ve played, but cryptic puzzles...stick ‘em.
Congratulate Wyvern and Co. on a great Forum (again).
