Wow it took me almost 300 turns (probably because I kept typing "YAY" whenever I got points), but I finally got the good ending.

So how do I get the bad ending? I mean I ran around half the game with the fireman costume on

Lastly does anyone else get warpped from the ice cream cart ot the Foto hut? I've had it happen to me a couple of times, think it happened when I typed "north"

That's supposed to happen. Something scary chases you from the dead end to the foto hut.

As for how you get the bad ending, there's a certain costume which gave you a certain item which you must have for the good ending. If you don't get the costume, then you don't get the item and don't get the good ending. Think along those lines; I would say more but I'm not sure if I've said too much already to be safe.

Wine Glass? Useless? You haven't finished the game, have you?
Actually, I have, it's just that I wasn't paying enough attention to notice what happens to it. I didn't realise something happens to it automatically.

How do you open the door to the Haunted Buggy Ride? It says it's locked. Also, do I need the clown suit to win? because I got the surgeon and fireman costume, but not the clown one. What command do you use to fix the machine? Where do you get the hankerchief? Blah, this game is hard.

EDIT: Finally got the right command. I lost because I didn't have the clown suit. Time to win.

There are some convenient items you notice when you drop the ping pong ball into the hole...

There is something there perhaps better known in your area by another term. A 'get all' will likely re-list it, amongst the other things, along with a message that should hint at its purpose.

Sorry if the hints are all very vague, we want to give just enough to get you over the hurdle, and not hurl you too far, too fast like a pumpkin cannon; to fill your cup of knowledge carefully from a slowly trickling faucet, and not flood you with info from a firehose.

click for the easiest way to get both badges fast

At the beginning of the game, grab the costume you need for the good ending. Then when you have all of the items that you need save the game by typing "save". put the costume on, and then put the parts in. after you have gotten the good ending, type restore, load your game, but dont put the costume on. hope this helps

how do you leave the wardrobe? I have done EVERYTHING. Except, obviously leave the wardrobe.


Edit: Seriously? They differentiate between LOOK IN and LOOK AT?
