Very nice. Reminds me of the fun evenings I spent with Laura Bow.

Seems like a cool game, I bet I'll have fun with it.
Right now I'm stuck on the safe combination, though. I'm gonna be going throug the notes for a while to figure out the right combo.

I just got the safe combination... quite clever. If people want a spoilered answer, let me know, and I'll edit this post to include one. But it's much more satisfying to figure it out yourself... it's really not a tough puzzle, but it takes some real examining to make sure you're looking correctly...

Dang, already finished Episode 1.
It's really cute! I like the music and sound effects quite a lot. It's really smoothly done.

Yeah, I really like the style. It's Indiana Jones-ish, but still comic-book-y enough to be really "personal"... if that makes any sense. I don't know what they're promoting, or if this is just more BBC-proving-it's-hip-with-the-internet-peeps-set, but it's really cool, either way. Spot on, BBC... Spot on!

I assume 28% is the highest you can get for the time being (although that's a little higher than I was expecting, personally)
/me waits for Nov 7th

I only scored 13%. Half your score... sounds about right.
btw: On the page before the last (being the scorepage) there is a "further research" invent. Very nice links. (in case some may have missed that.)
This one is nice. "Messing with dead people made easy."-part I.
note: never knew egyptians were buried with their cd-collection.

well, in that case, do the game bit again and
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
get the bit of photograph during the chase
to get you to 24%
then:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
look through all of your journal
for the other 4%
I couldn't find anything else.
or possibly you missed the

symbol on the chair in Elizabeth's hotal room?
tbh, I have no idea if I missed a load of stuff too.

you can also increase your score slightly by:

Dorkmaster,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Uh, how do you do that? I had to keep chasing him until he got into a dead end.
also, Dorkmaster, the sticker was already found for the Chicago upthebudget thing, gosh darn it. I was all ready to share that $10K with you!

Krystyn, you kinda have to take a guess and cut him off... sometimes you're right and some times you're wrong (I didn't spoiler cuz I don't think I spoiled anything by saying that...) as he doesn't follow the same pattern every time.
Anyway, that's what I did. And in terms of the $10K, we'll get 'em next time... (If I was just sooner in getting you the info! Dang!)
