I hate the number match puzzle

it was bad enough trying to figure out the totally off the wall logic in this game. it is a real shame that a number match puzzle will probably shut this game down for me. I found a few pieces that have numbers that there is no possible match and was able to place these in the appropriate edge spots. But this game has taken so long.... it isn't fun anymore.


Think I will go and make some Oatmeal and Cranberry Cookies!

And I did it!!! I'm out!!! Thanks to everybody who helped me. I'm so happy...

[Lady O/BigMomma]

wish you could help me Erika

[Erika]

I wished I could. But I think, it is difficult to help with this number puzzle. I just started it. And when I saw that I had no tile with the right numbers in a position, I moved all tiles that fitted together, to another place, and so I solved the puzzle in a rather short time... But I don't know, if this is helpful...

[Zyrene]

Argh...I'm ready to drink a beer....I just can't find the tile in the beer box....I've clicked until I feel like my finger is falling off....what am I missing?

Erika, Lady O....help with the tile in the beer can box? Puhleeze???

Anyone?? Bueller? Bueller??

Hm, there are three boxes with beer cans. And the box, in which you find the tile, changes in every game, I think. The tile is on the right side of the box. And if you click all cans, they move upwards and you can see the tile and take it. Do you think, you maybe have allready taken the tile without noticing it? Or can you see the tile and don't get it?

[Zyrene]

Hi Erika..
I have all the other tiles except this one. Do I have to lift all of the cans out to see it? I've tried and tried and I just don't see the tile =(

I'm gonna restart to see if it is a bug....

[Erika]

Yes, you have to click all the cans, if I remember correctly. I hope you will get it. It is so frustrating, if you try it for such a long time and it won't work... Good luck.

The tile is in the silver beer can box... it's towards the right corner of the box after you have lifted a few cans... you can just see a small corner of the tile and you have to be very quick to click it... it appears after you lift all the cans a couple of times... that's assuming your tile is in the silver can box... I seem to remember that it is different for some people.

I'm back... Cookies are in the oven...

My cookies are in the oven and my 7 year old got lucky with catching the tile with the empty glass.

Now I am working with those %*@!^% tiles. I have four that I know have to go in the places that I have them.... i think?

[Zyrene]

It was a bug....no tile so the restart helped. Now I'm working on the puzzle. Thanks for the help =)

[Erika]

Click on the left leg of the ladder. It moves towards the book shelf. Click on the leg, until the ladder doesn't move any more. Maybe you have to move the ladder backwards and forewards a few times. Then click on top of the shelf. You can see a further tile. Highlight your straw and click on the tile. The straw will blow away the insects.

Leave the cabinet. Put the straw back to the garbage bag. Go to the table in the first scene and put the scissors back.

Now go back to second scene:
Search for the box with peaches and take it to your inventory. Then open the green box from the cabinet. There are bullets in it. Take some of them Now examine the magazine of your box and click on the pile of bullets until the magazin is filled up with nine bullets. Your gun is loaded now and you can shoot. Open the peaches-box. Highlight your gun and click on the peaches with it. A peach comes up and gets blown away. Shoot all peaches until the box is empty. You have to refill the magazine for a few times. If the box is emtpy, highlight the empty cocktail glass in your inventory. Now click on the empty peaches-box. You see a tile flying upwards. Try to catch it with the cocktail glass. It's a little tricky, but you'll get it. If you hear a sound of ringing glass, you have it.
You find tile no. 15.
Take another pile of bullets out of the bullet box. Now zoom into the picture with the soldiers. Click on the pile of bullets in your inventory and place the bullets on the helmet of the soldier in the middle of the ditch. (Remember the description of the picture in second scene: it's the one of which you can just see a part of the helmet). The soldier comes up and gets angry then disappears in the ditch again. Now place the bottle of mineral water on his helmet. He takes it. After that, place the pile of bullets on his helmet again. He comes up and throws a tile into the cap of the walking soldier. Take it out.
You find tile no. 16

Now you have all tiles. Go to the cabinet and put the last tile to the brown box.
You can see yellow dots on the left side. You have to arrange the tiles here. They change in every game, so it doesn' make any sense to write down the solution for my current game.

But here is my way of solving those games:

You have 16 yellow spots:

1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12
13 14 15 16

Put any of the tiles on place no. 10. Now check all sides of the tile, how many different other tiles you can put in the "neighbour-places". (Sorry for this horrible English). If there is more than one possibility for each side of the tile, put it back and try again with another one. You maybe have two tiles now that belong together. Now check the other sides. Maybe there are more places, where only one tile is in your inventory which can be used her. If you have tiles on place no. 10 and 11 and you see, that you have no tile for place no. 14 now: Move both tiles downwards on places 14 and 15 and go on. If you have no tiles for place 6 or 7: Move both tiles to place 2 and 3 and go on. If you no tile for place no. 9: move the tiles to places no. 9 and 10. The trick is, to arrange the tiles to groups, which definitely belong together. The best is, to have one big group which can be moved from place to place and grow bigger and bigger until you have used all tiles. You can also have two or three groups which have to be arranged. But it is not so hard as it seems. I'm sorry that I can't help more...

If you have solved the puzzle, the brown box opens and gives you a big gun. Now go back to second scene and take out the thing from the green box. Put it to your gun. Now click on the bricks in the wall. You zoom in. Shoot on the bricks with your new gun and you're out.
