Re:  King's Quest 2 VGA Official Walkthrough released!

It was meant to be added at some later point. (the specific formatting of the original page gave Eriq headaches to implement) But that formatting worked great with the KQI hints! Thanks for the update, Erpy. I have found walkthroughs, but like the idea of getting just a tiny hint first and clicking...

Re:  King's Quest 2 VGA Official Walkthrough released!

I can't find the hints/solution points at the link provided in the first post. On the AGD KQII site, clicking on hints shows "coming soon" and clicking on solution/points shows "coming soon". I really don't want a step by step walkthrough (which I've found); I like the idea of se...

Re: Typing in KQ I remake?

TA DA!!!! :rollin warning: spoiler, or great hint, depending on your perspective ;). I saw a speedrun and realized that while I was swimming (using the running man icon) just right, when he gets up into the UPPER LEFT (not lower) passageway, you have to use the HAND for him to climb out onto dry lan...

Re: Typing in KQ I remake?

Tried to attach a screenshot I took of me at the bottom of the well trying to swim through the bottom left passage, circling where I was so you could see, but got: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: set_disallowed_content() in /home/content/n/a/v/navynuke04/html/forum/includes/functions_postin...

Re: Typing in KQ I remake?

How many lower left passageways are there at the bottom of the well? I'm swimming into the one to the left of the dummy treasure chest. I tried the one higher up, too. I'm stumped, but will look for the videos. Since most people, I think, do the well fairly early on, hopefully this won't expose me t...

Re: Typing in KQ I remake?

I was intuitively (and wrongly of course!) looking for the saved games in the same directory as the game itself. Turns out they're saved under MyDocuments/SavedGames. Here is the latest, which starts after I've climbed down the rope and am ready to dive. In this one, I've already filled the bucket w...

Re: Typing in KQ I remake?

Wow, thanks for the help. I'm usually pretty good at puzzles and games and am mortified that I seem to be stuck in a place no one else is having trouble with. What happens is this: after getting the bucket, I climb the rope down into the well and then dive into the water and the screen shifts to the...

Re: Typing in KQ I remake?

First off, thanks to you both for the further replies; good tips. Unfortunately, even going way back to the elf and making my way from there to the well and getting the bucket and climbing the rope down all over again and diving down and to the left, I keep drowning when I try to swim through the le...

Re: Typing in KQ I remake?

Thanks for the tips! I had been clicking like crazy but kept drowning, but now at least I know I'm on the right track. LATE PROBLEM: Of course, now that I've dived, no matter where I try to swim, I drown! Every opening seems a dead end. (And I thought getting the golden egg was frustrating--at least...

Typing in KQ I remake?

Are you supposed to be able to type in commands in this? The game takes up the whole screen and most things work fine with the mouse, but when I got stuck trying to figure out how to "dive" in the well, a walkthrough I read (I almost never resort to that!) said to TYPE certain commands (DI...
