![]() | RetroRobb 8 Nov 2019 06:20 Well damn, look at that. Didn't know they could all be picked up lol. Thanks for taking the time to help! | ||
![]() | wilhitewarrior 8 Nov 2019 06:42 No problem :) | ||
![]() | TuxedoMarty 26 Feb 2020 13:03 How do I get the "Final Frontier", Fireproof and "Don't Feed The Trolls" achievements? | ||
![]() | ReeseKaine 24 Aug 2020 08:41 Jus Cuz puzzles me a tad. How many objects are there that can be set on fire? | ||
![]() | wilhitewarrior 24 Aug 2020 08:55 There are 7 | ||
![]() | ReeseKaine 29 Aug 2020 02:55 Proceeding normally, how many objects would I be setting on fire? | ||
![]() | ReeseKaine 29 Aug 2020 02:57 Has the torch timer ever truly been explained? I'm trying to figure out how to route the game and do Lord Jair. | ||
![]() | wilhitewarrior 29 Aug 2020 03:04 There are 7 flammable objects on the game, the achievement requires all 7. As for the torch timer, it works like this: Each torch will give you 60 actions. Each and every time you do anything, your torch timer will decrease by 1. | ||
![]() | wilhitewarrior 29 Aug 2020 03:05 Lord Jair isn't all that difficult really, it's just a matter of knowing what you need and what you don't | ||
![]() | ReeseKaine 29 Aug 2020 22:04 I'm guessing every "miss" counts as an action? There have been times when I try to pick up a torch or a key, or the scepter and I happen to be off-center. | ||
![]() | wilhitewarrior 29 Aug 2020 22:41 Actually no, "You can't take it!" will not subtract from your torch strength | ||
![]() | ReeseKaine 30 Aug 2020 00:33 One last question on actions: Looking and moving between rooms: Do those count? | ||
![]() | wilhitewarrior 30 Aug 2020 00:34 Yes those do | ||
![]() | Olafur 31 Aug 2020 21:55 Man I have no idea what I'm supposed to do about this ghost of Sam Kinison one. I've looked at a few videos, but have absolutely no idea, damn XD | ||
![]() | wilhitewarrior 16 Sep 2020 16:10 lol the ghost of sam kinison one is to release the banshee in the crypt room | ||
![]() | ReeseKaine 16 Sep 2020 16:29 A great deal of the chevos can be acquired thru simple curiosity. | ||
![]() | Olafur 10 Jan 2021 10:07 finally came back to finish this, no idea why i waited this long. | ||
![]() | Deansrule 5 Jan 2022 19:56 Mastered! Super fun set and some great music | ||
![]() | Dogmeatman 10 Jan 2023 21:20 Great set, thanks. Really enjoyed this one. Had to think about a few of the achievements but got there in the end :) | ||
