Here is my problem. I can't find the old guy with his hint of if I do I get squirted and die. If I kill a certain charactor with a key I go right to the queen and cant use the hint as I never get to the old guy. Also, I don't speak spider.

Man if you're this badly stuck now, Contractual Obligation will be like hell for you! (Seriously, why does everyone complain about Hypertrout and never about CO? I'm stuck on CO right now, and I already completed it once before!)

And as for your multiple problems

And as for the bookmark problem, I use Google Chrome so I can't speak from experience, but I found this page on Google which might help. I'll copy and paste what it said in the next post.

I beat this book when I first played it, but more by accident than anything. I've now lost the link to that game, and am having to replay from the beginning, but can't get through this book. As far as I can tell,

Good writing but insanely hard.

That was a lot of fun and better than the previous ones in this series.

The sandwich thing is my only complaint. There were no clues as to which is the correct sandwich.

Thumbs up!

That took far longer than I was expecting. Took a while to get the right ending because I kept finding things that worked but were ultimately wrong. Namely

This was a step in the right direction from the prequel, but not much of one.

The writing continues to be very humorous and original, and this time there is a lot more content to the story as well. All of this was a welcome addition and I did end up enjoying it overall.

Having said that, the “game” part remains virtually unbeatable. The biggest problem is that it requires repeated trial-and-error in order to awkwardly stumble your way across the finish line. There is no way that you could make your way through this using only logic, skill, planning, or even just by being lucky! The only way to win is by losing over and over again, and even then you probably won’t figure it out.

I did actually enjoy the story in the end, but my advice is once again to just cheat and read the comments after you run out ideas.

..........................

All I have to say is: how is this rated "medium" in difficulty, again? Yes, it's not as arbitrary as the first one, where you have something like a 16% chance of failing midway through REGARDLESS of your stats (with an additional chance of failing due to poor skill alone) and THEN an additional, completely unavoidable 33% chance of failing that's due to completely arbitrary limitations alone

SPOILER  
END SPOILER


Yet, it ultimately has an extremely narrow path to victory all the same, where only a couple of deviations are TECHNICALLY allowed, yet in practice leave you with negligible chances of winning fairly, and you have to make incredibly arbitrary guesses to find out the true path.

SPOILER  
END SPOILER


I decided to check the other works' ratings here again, and altogether, they feel less explicable than ever. Completely trivial Curse Of The Yeti and Any Port In A Storm are rated with the same difficulty as this one? HOW?! So are A Saint Beckons, Beggars Of Blacksand, Below Zero Point, Bloodsworth Bayou and Garden of Bones, which do have some trap paths, but it's way, way easier to spot them and you spend much, much less time on them before getting to the right path, which is trivial. Hunger Of The Wolf and Shrine Of The Salamander are a bit harder than those, but still much easier than this one: you are much less likely to find yourself guessing "what am I doing wrong now?"

I am also REALLY unsure about A Knight's Trial, A Princess Of Zamarra, Midnight Deep and Rebels Of The Dark Chasms rated harder than this one. I feel that they are at most the same. Maybe it's hindsight speaking, but the House of Horror felt much easier: once you get to the wrong path which gives you meta-knowledge (which I don't THINK requires anything much more than to stumble upon the right room), then winning becomes a matter of passing a LUCK check and not getting mauled too badly in an even-skill fight early on (plus making the right choice close to the end, obviously) with the rest largely sorted by then. And the only thing which makes Bodies in the Docks even close to "fairly hard" is the balancing of the final fights, so you at most need to throw a few runs against the wall doing the same things until the dice fall in your favour.

Did I forget to post the proofreading entry after it failed to fit the word count as usual, or did it just get caught up in the filter again? Either way...
