Hello,

I have made great progress in W&W but now I am stuck and do not know what to do. In the Serpent Temple I cannot make it to the Snake Idol/Figurine. When I flood the passageway and jump down there to retrieve it, I get literally stuck in the passage way right before you actually come out of the water. I have wiggled all around and it will not let me go any further. Any suggestions on how I get past this. Thanks!

Welcome to the boards, wizard102 [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img] May your journeys in the Gael Serran prove plentiful and profitable

Unfortunately, that passageway has presented problems for a lot of people. There are a couple of ways you can try to sneak through... making your smallest character your lead character, trying to look up at a 45-degree angle as you go, trying to go sideways... you'll find them in the Best Tips thread at the top of the forum.

Sadly, they don't always work... You only need the idol to get the book, so we've written down the contents of the book in the Best Tips thread as well.

Good luck in the game, and be sure to come back and let us know how it's going

Welcome to the board, wizard102!!!

Yes, that passageway has been the bane of MANY a player!!

It is worthwhile to at least try to solve the problem - using the suggestions that Bungleau mentioned and the others listed in the BEST TIPS thread - smallest character, going backwards etc. Sometimes they just don't work but the purpose/goal of that particular passageway is to get the snake idol which will give you the Book of Servants in the Library.

This book contains the answers you will need for the Ritual of the Serpent which gives you access to the rest of the Serpent Temple. The answers are listed in the BEST TIPS thread so if you can't get the idol, you can still play on!

Do keep us posted on how your game is going!!

Welcome to the board from me as well. [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]

That is an old issue indeed, and you have been well answered, I see.

I, myself, heard an old incredible tale once. Namely that by changing the screen resolution, one would be able to go through the passage. I have never done any real experiments on that issue, but on my old computer running the 800 by 600 screen resolution, I never had any problems. On my new computer which runs in 1152 by 864 pixels, I do have that problem, however.

GREAT NEWS!! After selecting the smallest character, changing the screen resolution, and trying all diferent angles I made it through. I think that it was more of a 75 degree angle needed. Thanks for all of your suggestions!!!!!

If only I had read this thread first, I would have made my posts less than epic. Next time I play the game, I'm gonna have a runt on deck!

LOL!!!

Does help to have a smaller character but the reasons why some (many) players seems to get stuck here remains mysterious - I never got stuck in this area even when my party was all humans.
