Telltale Games

MetalGearfan1983 · 02/18/2011, 05:33 am

Alright, I'm back in 1931 in Hill Valley where I'm supposed to go back to the new speak easy and I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get myself in the door with Matches asking me these questions.

How do I correctly answer him to gain access into the speak easy?

Thanks for any help you can give me

Maybe you found a note on the bar at some earlier point in the game. It contains a very clear hint on how to solve this puzzle.

You can't go back and get that note, but the pattern is not hard to figure out. Watch a few other patrons enter, and pay close attention to the questions and the answers. If you still need help...

The beginning of the answer must have the same word/partial word as the end of the question.

Who let you come to my door?

Doris Day.

What will you do if I send you away?

Wait til Wednesday.

Where were you born?

Borneo.

I hope this helps.

HeroicJay · 02/19/2011, 11:59 am

It won't, because the questions are random.

corruptbiggins · 02/19/2011, 12:12 pm

That is true but the pattern remains the same.

Something to keep in mind that I missed on my first few attempts is that there are many options to choose from, and not just the four or whatever shown. The down arrow initially escaped notice.

Wasn't this puzzle used in one of the Monkey Island games? :-) It baffled me at first but when I looked at the note I got it AND I remembered I'd seen it before.

i just used trial & error and memorized some of the questions & anwers.

ReDi, you're thinking of the gambling club puzzle on Phatt Island. It's got similarities but works from a very different angle. "If this is three (shows five fingers), what's this (shows two fingers)?" I won't say the answer just to bug the people who never played Monkey Island.

Also, Cyphox, that sounds like a really boring way to do it. The pattern was a lot easier to figure out if you had that helpful sheet from the under-renovation speakeasy.

I'm stuck at this part too. i guess ill try it again.

Yes, this is a near re-hash of the "if this is (blank), then this is...?" puzzle from Monkey 2.

The only think you have to worry about is the last word of the phrase coming from the doorman. Also, thankfully, you only have to do this puzzle once.

ScreamingFalcon · 03/25/2011, 08:10 am

Another tip for your next play through, if it isn't nailed down, take it.

I never grabbed the note, but figured out the wordplay easily enough. The "look over the counter" option seemed a little too risky in that scene.
