Game Facts:



Few people know that you can move from room to room in the 11th hour by

clicking on available rooms from your Map in the Game Book.  This saves time

traveling around the house.  You can also use your right mouse button to

eliminate transitions (i.e. moving from one spot to another).



Once you finish the game you will be awarded with an "Open House" file which

will allow you access to all rooms, puzzles, videos etc. the next time you

start the game (same as with the 7th Guest).



I suggest you save your game often to avoid frustration.  I also suggest

reading the game manual.



Walkthrough:



At the start of the game your cursor will be blinking.  This indicates that

you should look at your Game Book.  Do this by clicking at the top of the

screen.  Your Goal is to try to save Robin (your female companion) and, if

possible, to destroy the evil house.  In order to do this you must solve

puzzles and find the solutions to many riddles.  Puzzles are 3D games which

you can virtually manipulate.  Riddles are given to you to solve by Stauf

through your Game Book.



- Open your Game Book.  Your first riddle is "Winter coat worn for a mixer."

To solve this riddle, go to the Library and click on the bottle of tonic

water which is on top of the fireplace.  You will get to watch a video clip.



- Your next riddle is "Rolling rock, bottle cap."  You must solve a puzzle

before you can solve this riddle.  Go to Brian Dutton's room (see your map)

and click on the Cash Register Puzzle at the back, right side of the room.

The object of the puzzle is to make both sides of the display equal one

another.  Since you start with 162, both sides must equal 81.  To solve the

puzzle do the following:  In the top row, depress the number 25, and the last

three keys (5,10,10).  In the bottom row depress the last four keys

(10,10,1,10).  In this room you will notice a champagne bottle on the floor

close to the TV - click on it.  Now click on the cork to solve the riddle

(Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "Artsy, excited, lecher."  Your must first solve a

Chess Puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  The chess puzzle is in the

main foyer on a table near the grandfather clock.  Click on the puzzle.

To solve it, switch the positions of the white and black knights.

To solve the riddle you must go to the Art Gallery.  To get there you must

click on the middle of the grandfather clock.  You travel through a secret

passage into the gallery (Stauf will say "Ohh bad move).  Click on the

painting above the statue on the floor (directly in front of you).  To solve

the riddle click directly on the Man-Beast thing in the center of the

painting. (Video Clip).











- Your next riddle is "A heart attack could put you in the ground."  You must

solve a puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Go to the Library.  You

will see a series of books on a shelf between two skulls.  Click on these

books.  The object of the Book Puzzle is to put all of the green books on the

left and all of the red books on the right.  Two books are moved at a time.

There are ten spaces between the skulls and only eight books.  In my solution

I tell you to count books.  Count only the books and imagine that the two

free spaces don't exist. Count from left to right.  Use these four moves to

solve the puzzle:





Move the 2nd and 3rd books.  Next move the 3rd and 4th books.  Next move the

6th and 7th books and finally the 1st and 2nd books.  You will notice a Globe

of the earth in this room.  click on it to solve the riddle.  (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "Battleground."  Go to Brian Dutton's room and go

through the door on the right side of the bed.  This is the passage into the

Chapel.  Go through the wooden door into the Lab.  You must solve another

puzzle before you can solve the riddle.  The puzzle is on the counter beside

a large green bottle.  You play this Mouse Trap Puzzle against Stauf!  The

object of the puzzle is to create a path for the mouse to travel into the

orange door (the one on the right of your screen).  Playing a maze piece

causes the other pieces in the row to slide over or in a column to slide up

and down.  This puzzle is tough and there is no absolute solution (sorry).

Once you solve the puzzle, you can then solve the riddle by clicking on the

RX pill box which is on the counter in front of the green bottle.

(Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "Bars deter cuckoo bird."  Click on the picture of

birds opposite the grandfather clock in the main foyer.  Now click on the

Robin.  (Video Clip)



- Your next riddle is "Modern art flourishes under the sun."  Go through the

clock into the gallery.  There is a picture on the wall of a young girl in a

blue dress.  There is a picture of modern art on the floor under this

painting.  Click on this modern art.  It is another puzzle you play against

Stauf.  The object is to choose the last possible spot. It may take a few

attempts to get the hang of this one.  You get a video clip after you solve

it.



- Your next riddle is "Skedaddled."  Go to the Library and click on the desk

to solve this riddle.



- Your next riddle is "Part of the body examined in doctors office."  Go to

the art gallery and click on the torso of the white statue on the floor to

solve this riddle. (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle "...Sounder..."can be solved by going back to Brian

Dutton's room and clicking on the bottle of champagne on the floor (the same

one as before).



- Your next riddle is "Animal Sullied Street."  You must solve a puzzle

before you can solve this riddle.  Go to the games room and click on the

white Pool Balls.  There are nine balls.  Choose them in this order:



	7



      6          8



5	4          9



      2          1



	3



To solve the riddle, click on the picture of dogs in this room and then on

the Irish Setter.  (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "JFCR VX QCTF..."  To solve the riddle go to the main

foyer and click on the FACE of the grandfather clock. (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "ZV GOTDY OD MPY..."  You must solve a puzzle before

you can solve this riddle.  Go to the bathroom upstairs and click on the

Spider Puzzle which is on the floor at the end of the bathtub.

Think of this puzzle as points on a compass where N=north, E=east, S=south,

W=west etc.  Do the following moves in order:



NE to S

SE to W

W to NE

SW to N

N to SE

SE to W

NW to E

E to SW

SW to N

N to SE

S to NW

NW to E

E to SW

NE to S

S to NW

W to NE



To solve the riddle, click on the straight razor on the bathtub.

- Your next riddle is "Fruit Loop on Stove."  Go to the dinning room and

click on the picture of fruit.  Now click on the orange to solve the riddle.



- Your next riddle is "Dreams abound of arming the rebels..."  You must solve

a puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Go to Ed Knox bedroom.  Click on

the full length mirror next to the door.  This Mirror Puzzle is simply a

sliding tile game.  You must rearrange the tiles to form a consistent

picture.  If you click at the bottom of your screen to restart the puzzle,

you will see what the end result should look like.  Once you solve this

puzzle, click on the picture above the fireplace in this room to solve the

riddle. (Video Clip).





- Your next riddle can be solved by going to the Library and clicking on the

picture near the telescope. (Video Clip).



- Next, go to the Chapel and click on the concrete slab with the picture of a

triangle in the middle next to the wooden door.  The object of the puzzle is

to create an unbroken path of your color (red) which touches all three sides

of the triangle.  You play this one against Stauf.  Although there is no

absolute solution, this one is fairly simple to win.  I suggest you start in

the middle of the second to bottom row and work to the sides and down one.

You get a video clip after you solve it.

















- Your next riddle is "Put an olive in a stein..."  Go to Brian Dutton's room

and click on the TV to solve this riddle. (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "A vital instrumental part."  Go to the chapel and

click on the organ to solve this riddle.



- Your next riddle is "22233642-736846873."  You must first solve a puzzle

before you can solve this riddle.  Go to the attic.  There is a model train

set on the floor.  Click on the Train Puzzle.  To solve the puzzle you must

spell the word STAUF.  Use the switcher to move the train between the tracks.

This one is fairly easy although it may take a long time.  Once you solve

this riddle, look for the table with chess pieces on it in this room.  Click

on the table.  Now click on the white rook to solve the riddle.



- Your next riddle is "Light piece from great orchestra."  Go to the chapel

and click on the torch which is on top of the alter to solve this riddle.

(Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "Cheesy gadget that sounds larger."  You must solve a

puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Go to the kitchen and click on the

Plate Puzzle which is on the wooden block table.  The object of the puzzle is

to stack two plates at each of the points on the star.  To solve the puzzle I

suggest you do the following.  Draw a rough picture of the star on a piece of

paper and then number all of the positions of the plates from 1 to 10

starting at the top and working clockwise (to the right).  Now move your

plate in the following manner:



Move the plate at position 6 to position 9

Move the plate at position 4 to position 1

Move the plate at position 2 to position 7

Move the plate at position 8 to position 5

Move the plate at position 10 to position 3



Now click on the grater on the stove to solve the riddle.



-Your next riddle is "500=100=0."  To solve this riddle go to the lab.  There

is a cart with a bottle and some trays on it.  Beside the bottle on this tray

is a 7th Guest CD-ROM disk (not the box).  Click on this disk. (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "...Pearlies won't rot..."  To solve this riddle go to

the bathroom and click on the toothpaste which is on the sink.



- Your next riddle is "Slyness holding shipment in choppe."  You must solve a

puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Go to Ham. Temple's room and click

on the cube which is on the bottom shelf of the night stand.  To solve this

Cube Puzzle do the following:



Select the #4 to the right of the starting point

then select the #1 to the right

then the #3 to the upper right

then the #1 to the lower right (the #4 and #6 will appear automatically)

next select the #2 to the upper left of the #6

then the #1 directly above.  That's it.



In the same room click on the guillotine to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).











- Your next riddle is "...Rise..." Go to Mrtn. Burden's room and click on the

Pyramid Puzzle on the small table.  To solve to puzzle you must unscramble

two 15 letter words.  The first word is "Unintentionally" and the second word

is "straightforward."  Now click on the red (living) rose in the vase on the

nightstand to solve your riddle.



- Your next riddle is "What kind of jewelry is angrier."  You must solve a

puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Go to Jul. Heine's room and click

on the jewelry box.  The object of this Jewel Puzzle is to match the colors

of the touching sides of the gems.  Double click the jewels to make them

turn.  You can move the positions of the jewels by single clicking the one

you want to move and then single clicking the position you want to move to.

Once you solve this puzzle, click on the mirror vanity and then on the small

earring in the center to solve the riddle.



- Your next riddle is "You might hear a well mannered cockney..."  Go to the

attic. Now go through the wooden door.  On the ground in front of you is a

Beehive Puzzle.  Click on it.  Once again you are playing against Stauf.

This is the same type of puzzle as the microscope puzzle in the 7th guest.

There is no absolute solution.  Keep trying.  Count on losing at least 3

times before you win.



- Your next riddle is "Instrument is sharp but is missing its head."  Go to

the music room.  You must solve another puzzle before you can solve the

riddle.  The Furniture Puzzle is on top of the fireplace mantel.  This is

probably the toughest puzzle in the game.  It should take you at least 90

move to solve it.  Once you solve this puzzle, click on the harp in this room

to solve the riddle.

Click on the Nutcracker figure which is just outside the Game Room door in

the hallway.  This solves the riddle. (Video Clip).

and click on the eyeball on the pool table to solve the riddle.



- Your next riddle is "Disabled cutting edge."  Go to Ham. Temple's room and

click on the dagger in the headboard to solve the riddle.



- Your next riddle is "unreasonable reason."  Go to the attic and click on

the train to solve the riddle.



- Your next riddle is "Paper used in unusual thesis."  Go to Mrtn. Burden's

room and click on the bed sheets to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "Adroit holding a sharp instrument."  Go to the kitchen

and click on the clever in the wall to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "A deserted arthropod."  Go to the dinning room and

click on the dessert on the table.  This is another puzzle you must play

against Stauf.  The object is to get 4 of your candies in a row

(horizontally, vertically or diagonally) to win.



- Your next riddle is "6632646254626455466."  Click on the white lion state

at the top of the stairs to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).



- Your next riddle is "Drink left at sea."  Go to Ed Knox's room and click on

the glass of wine (port) to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).













- Your next riddle is "Snake, baby, trap."  You must solve a puzzle before

you can solve this riddle.  Go to the Doll Room.  Click on the Bishops Puzzle

located on the dresser.  The object of this puzzle is to swap the positions

of the white and black bishops.  It will take you at least 18 moves.  This

one is fairly simple.  Once you solve it, click on the floor boards under the

shelf with the ballerina statue on it.  You will go through the floor.  Now

click on the big, pink rattle to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).





- Your next riddle is "A letter from Greece..."  Go to the grandfather clock

and click on the number 11 on the face of the clock.(Video Clip)



*** SAVE YOUR GAME HERE***



- Your next riddle is "This eight letter word has kst in the..." Go to the

library and click on the desk.  Now click on the pen and ink holder to solve

the riddle.



Go to the doll room and then through the floor boards again.  Now click on

the toy doll house on the floor.  This is the final puzzle of the game and,

of course, you play against Stauf.  To win you must get five of your "stones"

in a row (any direction) or capture five pairs of Stauf's stones.  To improve

your odds, I suggest you leave a space between your first few stones.  I also

find it easier to capture Stauf's stones than to form a line of five.



Once you solve this puzzle, you will be faced with an 11th hour decision.

Only one of the choices is truly correct.
