    A Mess O' Trouble (old mac game)

    Yeah, I almost gave up on that too, then I realised "open horn". *facepalm* Same with the orchid, use knife, not cut orchid...doh... Yeah.... though to be honest, having played almost all the levels I already had so much treasure in my pockets that I had to drop some to take new items...

    Ookkaaaay here come spoilers :p The potion for fast hair growth is how you kill the leech queen, you pour it on her and the hairs grow under her and stab her. The "atomizer" (empty perfume bottle") is what you will need to spray the potion on the leech. The 4 buttons that open valves...

    I finished the voidbeast last night! Took me ages to get the orchid down, I kept saying "cut hair", but I had to say "use knife". You need to take the orchid, then just go to the Krabb (giant bug) and he will follow you cos he likes the smell of the orchid. Then you go to that orifice where...

    I found the axe on the voidbeast!!! I'm such an idiot! I went back and re-read all conversations I had with all the phleas, and noticed that the waiter in the bar told me that you can sometimes shoot things with locks to get them to open. So I went back to the ruined hut with that empty trunk...

    A Mess O' Trouble (old mac game)

    !!!! Yes! I can't believe I hadn't thought of that myself! I got the plate and the pattern now, thank you! :D Funny though, I made a gear a different way. I went to that horn that you can open by pulling a lever/hair that's next to it. I put my plate inside it, and closed it. When I opened...

    A Mess O' Trouble (old mac game)

    I started playing this game again after 15 years. Last time I gave up quickly, this time I'm sticking to it. :D It's good to see there are still people playing this game today. Maybe someone can help with a few hints? I'm basically stuck with the Monolith city and the Void/beast. I got the...
