This game has a timed mode
only and there's no way to turn it off, however you will be given plenty
of time to complete your missions. There are a lot of find and seek
levels with some mini games in between.
A lot of items are very
small on the screen and can be hard to see. Make sure you look for items
that are partially hidden and are close to the edge of the screen. It
seems that a lot of items are placed that way on purpose so it's
always a good idea to search every conceivable corner of the screen.
You will get penalized 30
seconds off the clock for random clicking. The game will allow you to
click a few of incorrect items before it penalizes you.
In some instances all the
items on the list will not be revealed to you right away, they will show
up one by one after you've found all the items from the initial list.
The game will sometimes ask
you to find a particular object but there can be 2 of the same ones at
one time. The game will only accept one answer so if you know you're
clicking on the right item, look for another one like it so you can get
the right answer. For example, it was asking me for a necklace, We tried
to click on the pearl necklace and it would not accept it. Finally we
clicked on a different necklace and the game accepted it.
If you're having a hard
time finding items in a scene, just exit out of the game and when you
come back you will have a new set of items to look for. If you already
found the secret item, you will not have to look for it again. If you
used up all your hints before you exited the game, you will get 2
additional hints when you come back.
If you exit the game before
completing a chapter you may have to start from a previously played
level. Try to finish a room completely before exiting out.
Click on the assistant when
you need their help they can give you further clues on what to do
especially in the mini games.
HINTS
You get 5 hints at the
beginning of each chapter and there's no way to earn extra ones, so use
the ones you have wisely.
The five hints will have to
last you through more than one scene, usually you will have 5 hints to
use in 2-3 locations.
You will also have hints
that you can use during any mini game. In the mini games you will get 5
hints that you can use just for the mini game, once you used those up
there's no way to earn more of them.
SECRET
ITEMS
Look for items that can be
opened, they contain secret items which contain broken parts of the
amulet. You need to collect them all so you can send the evil sorcerer
back to his twisted world.
Once you open the boxes
make sure that you click on the item that's inside otherwise you will
not be able to collect it.
The walkthrough below shows
you the location of all the amulets in the game. They will be shown in
order of appearance.

puzzle of them. We've placed both solutions for you on here.

then right click it to rotate it.

place for the puzzle piece, left click it in place. If it's correct the

You get 750 points for each
clone that you shoot and 150 points for the wizard. The clones are easy

symbol once per section.
The long sections belong to
the triangles.
The smaller sections belong
to the circles (the sections that have the semi-circles around them, in
other words the circles always go from left to right).
Once a circle is completed
correctly the pieces will lock in place and the circle will light up.
It's also important to
highlight all the shapes even if they are not filled in and all you see
is an outline, otherwise you will not be able to complete the puzzle.
Make sure that you change
the symbols that are in the middle as well or you will not be able to
complete the puzzle.
There are some symbols that
are already in the game and that do not move when you click on them,
that eliminates one symbol that you have to place.

symbols and a plaque. The game will initially ask you to look for 8
signs. Once you find those 8 signs, it will ask you to find a plaque.

behind the plaque, click on that symbol to end this round.
