Agatha Christie - Death on the Nile




General Tips:

-------------

Submitted by: David K



* Think outside the box. For example, if "duck" is on your list, it could

refer to a rubber ducky, a wooden carving of a duck, or a roast duck on

someone's dinner plate Visit the salon at regular intervals during an

investigation. Sometimes finding new clues will open up new questions

for Poirot to ask.



* All of the items to find are historically accurate to the early 20th-

century time period in which the book took place, which requires a bit of

an adjustment in thinking. For example, if "car" is on your list of items

to find, you should be looking for an old-fashioned Model T Ford type of

vehicle; if you're looking for a music stand, expect to see an old ornate

wooden one instead of the black metal variety; and a bathing suit will be

a modest black affair, not a sexy bikini!





Puzzle Box (Investigation 6)

----------------------------

Use rhymes to solve this one.



* Bee: tree, 3, knee

* Snail: pail, grail (the cup), nail

* Dog: frog, log, hog

* Book: cook, rook (chess piece), hook



You'll find pearls inside the locked puzzle box, which you have to examine.

Bring the magnifying glass over the pearls until you find a flawed-looking

one. Hold the glass over it for a few seconds to register a clue.





Examine the evidence (Investigation 8)?:_

----------------------------------------

The magnifying glass will buzz when it gets close something interesting.

If you hold the magnifying glass still for a few seconds, a clue will turn

up.



* Use the crowbar on the box

* Use the magnifying glass on the bottle (clue #1)

* Use the crowbar on the cloth bundle

* Use the magnifying glass on the gun (clue #2)

* Use the magnifying glass on the stained handkerchief (clue #3)

* Use the magnifying glass on the ashtray (clue #4)

* Use the magnifying glass on the upper right corner of the cloth (clue #5)

* Use the magnifying glass on the upper left corner of the cloth (clue #6)





Hints:

------

* Press your [Alt] key to pause the timer without obstructing your view.

Clicking anywhere on the screen, or pressing your Alt key again will

restart the timer.



* Hidden objects to find, clues to discover and puzzles to solve...there's

all that and more with Death on the Nile! If you find yourself stuck on

the puzzle box, just try and rhyme your way through! And the rosary bead

solution is as easy as A-B-C!

Agatha Christie - And Then There Were None




Safe puzzle:

------------

Submitted by: conner54



Once the safe has been opened, inside is a small drawer with slots with

the letters A, E, E, E, H, L, R, S, T, U, V and W. Notice the poster

above the radio just outside the safe. You will find the answer there

in a song that Patrick sings. The answer to open this second hidden

door is: Rule the Waves.



Miss Brent alive and dead at the same time:

-------------------------------------------

The game may glitch to where Miss Brent knitting downstairs on the patio

alive, but is also dead in bed at the exact same time. This happens because

she must first complete the part of your escape plan that you have given

her, which is to sew the two sheets together. For her to finish this you

must give her: sheets (found in the upstairs closet) sewing needles (found

in the Rogers' room) and finally fishing line (found behind the thorn bushes).

To get past these thorns, find the fermented apples near the bee hives.

Using the cheese cloth, place them in the juicer in the kitchen. You will

need a piece of the submarine hidden through the "Rule the Waves" door

before you can do this. Make sure that you explore the rooms beyond the

safe very carefully or you will miss the sub. After you have the apple

cider, take it to the thorn bush and use it there. Grab the fishing line

and give it to Miss Brent. Walk away for a few minutes and return. The

sheets are done and you can combine the four things you need: the tripod

for the telescope, the sheets, the leather goat harness and the fishing

net to get your parachute.



Endings:

--------

There are four endings in the game



Unlockable How to unlock
