Telltale Games

ACCEPTED!

Somehow my game unstuck itself and I was finally able to finish it! Wow, what a build up for episode five...

Lucreto · 04/29/2011, 02:50 pm

...Nah, still can't figure this mood-swinging puzzle out. I get everything that needs to be done, from the valve to the cakes and the generator, but the use of the slides is confusing me. The punchcard doesn't get printed out until you've gone through all the slides, so how can they really have an impact on his mood when you have to look at 'em all anyway? Unless you can get the card to print out some other way? Or am I missing something else? Question mark?

This is the first puzzle I've come across for the whole season that frustrated me enough to look for a solution before figuring it out. I'm just certain that I'm missing something that should be plain to see...

EDIT: Moments after I write it, I figure it out! If anyone else is stuck, just be patient. Perhaps finish what you've started in another area...

Can someone share where the diamond and fur is? I should of told Doc the Delorean was green after the fact I had the cleanser, but now since I have, it seems as though I am waiting foooooorever for it to come green. Talked to everybody in the expo. Any tips?

***Edit: If you want a hint where to find the diamond, it's either in the "past" or "future". If you'd like one for the fur, the "past" or "future" might not have a need of it***

Solved the issue where the green light isn't green... If you have the cleanser in the Delorean already, take it out, go back to Emmett in the lab and he will then tell you it is missing. Then, go back to the Delorean and it will be green. Not sure if you have to have all of Trixie's stuff out of the way, but I did that before it went green.

I can not figure out where the Jacob's ladder is? Can anyone help with that?

docbrown2015 · 04/29/2011, 10:22 pm

I wonder why "Jacob's ladder" in the hints is on there when there is none..unless they mean in as an expression?

dxdy · 04/30/2011, 03:43 am

jacob's ladder is song of Huey Lewis and the News but also cant figure what do in games with that....

in mind test, i get hooligan for emmett... almost get it....

dxdy · 04/30/2011, 05:07 am

get it...
this is right emotions for every slides:
- first slide (Edna): negative - you must turn to red bulb light
- click on Slide Advancer
- second slide: positive - you must turn to green bulb light
- click on Slide Advancer
- third slide: negative - you must turn to red bulb light
- click on Slide Advancer
- four slide: positive - you must turn to green bulb light
- click on Slide Advancer
- fifth slide: positive - leave green (or you must turn to green bulb light)
- click on Slide Advancer and you get Degenerate Criminal card

Have the same problem!
But the light always switches to yellow before i can get the needed reaction!
Do I have go get Emmet in the right mood BEFORE oder AFTER I switch the photos?!?
And do I have to wait untill this stupid record stops playing every time?!?

Great Scott! This is no fun to play!

DSgamby · 04/30/2011, 06:25 am

you do it after. Don't worry about when you switch the photos. Just remember, you need to do 2 negatives or 2 positives before you switch to the next photo.

Shemp · 04/30/2011, 06:37 am

Huh? Two?

Why two???

How did you figure that out?

DSgamby · 04/30/2011, 06:39 am

'That is how the game wants it to work.
Two times is what the hints in the game said.

To get the reaction you want.

Shemp · 04/30/2011, 06:55 am

Wow, great game design! So the only way to figure out, that you have to do it twice is in the hints?

And the best part - i still don't get it.

First i got 2 negative reactions for Edna - ok
Next, the Killer - 2 positve (the stew and the record) - but the record plays over and over and the stew-stench is also always on!
(if I neutralise it with the bacteria, the negative reaction is gone, right?)

So I'm damned to get positve reactions on and on!

So how do I get 2 positive reactions without affecting the next slide, which needs two negaive?!?

Can't solve this.
I activate the switch,then provoce a negative reaction on Emmett but the photo doesn't change!
Can you tell me EXACTLY how to solve this?
It's like an hour I try by myself,but I can't figure it out.

There is a 'Slide Advancer' next to the switch that starts the machine, which is most time hidden behind the stew pot...

OKAY, i figured it out!
I doesn't mind which emotion you got on the slide, as long as there are enough negative or positive reactions! You can kill 2 positive reactions with 3 negative reactions! WTF!
Is this how it's supposed to work? This makes no sense at all!

simple, use 2x times crank or valve on fish tank....

HeroicJay · 04/30/2011, 09:32 am

It's not the number of reactions, it's the color of the light of Emmett's helmet that matters. It's just that the smells and record persist - after you change the slides, it'll default to yellow and then immediately go redder if the bacteria smell is present, and greener if the stew smell is present or the record is on. (The bacteria smell and record will, in fact, cancel each other out and make him start the slide at yellow.)

jmm · 04/30/2011, 10:15 am

Possitive: Stew and Trixie's Song
Negative: Fish Tank Valve and Generator Lightning

The only important color is the color that is active when you press the "Advance Slide" switch, you can play with the colors but only the last one is the one that matters.
