"a challenging first person puzzle exploration game that uses an easy to navigate mouse driven, point and click interface"

Now only if this game was first person with the WASD keys and mouse lookin' that good. I myself never got into the first person point and click

Only a couple of first person adventure games I like... the Tex Murphy games. And I liked the 7th Guest, but that's more puzzle, instead of adventure.

Ok I played a bit, this is pre-rendered with very neat graphics and animations. If you like Myst you should like this.

The game start pretty fast on puzzle,... I managed to solve a few to get new clue who get me to nothing... but it's not impossible like Uru, you can solve them if you look carefully Wink

Ain't played long enough to tell more

dunno if we should turn this thread into a walkthrough with spoilers or make another one, which take useless space on the forum for a small game.. I'll answer the questions here the best I can

SPOILERS!!
compass outside the house: you need an item first, which you can get by getting into the "secret room" but before entering the door and turning around

3 disk upstairs: just wander outside and you'll get to a thing where there is 3 button who summon 3 shape, which are the shape of the disks. Look next to the 3 button there is small shapes and there is a similarity between these shape and some shape on the 3 buttons upstair.

I'm stuck too, got the map upstair, opened the door to the flying thing, got the triangle to the outside compass, just need to know what to do with the zodiac signs and the charger downstair (managed to get fire and thermomether in place)

EDIT: nwn got it Smile
END OF SPOILERS

Cheers Dunge for the help.

Do you know what order the gems discs and symbol keys need to go in to make the laser thing work. I can't seem to find any clues for this.

In the house, take note of the colour and size of each planet. Then spin them and take note of the colour they change to. Stand in the middle of the posts and look at the outer edge - each post has a planet on it. Match the colour on the outside posts to the colour of the planets and the inside posts to the colour they change to when spun.

Match the coloured numbers in your book (from behind the door) with the colours and shapes on the dials. An example is in the dudes hut on the wall.

Clevesa : yeah it's pretty much the same thing as myst so grab it if you like Smile
puzzles are "ok" to solve... I suprise myself because I solved everything soo far, and usually I always go to faqs (there is none yet, maybe that's why Razz) but yeah they are not too hard but still you need to think

Clevesa, just cos URU was too hard for you doesnt mean its crap.. now go get the POTS addon!

... now to Aura,.. SOME SPOILERS MAY BE FOUND IN THE TEXT BELOW!

Is this game beta or what?.. there are several issues where hotspots dissapear in-game making progress impossible. Like one time the hotspots for the crystals and the stencils dissapeared so I couldnt open the door to the cave.. another incident happened in the second world where the hotspots on the 5 rotating circles puzzle dissapeard. Also Ive had the table in the cave in the forestworld of world 3 (The one that starts in the room with 4 screens and tuningforks) dissapear, when you come back to place the bottle with poisonous smoke the table is nolonger active meaning u cant put it there and move on and the hotspot that allowed me to go up the ladder to the wizard dissapears as well so that I cant go back there the 2nd time.. sometimes loading a previous savegame will fix but there is no way of telling what are supposed to be puzzles and what are not when hotspots might just dissapear and you cant tell how far back whatever bug that made them dissapear ocurred.. Also we've had the bell come off the stand before the powder has been sprinkled on the flowers.. and you also keep getting some items that uve used back in the inventory when joining that same world..

ixxo
