I'm stuck in the roof area (can access the attic, roof and balcony). How do I get out of it?
Check out the stuff in the attic.
After a very frustrating journey, I am stuck at the same point as Edo_IF. I have 45 points out of 50. When I "board ship really" , I am told that I didn't find all the geocaches, but I actually did. I was told there were three, I found three and I signed three. The "last lousy point" (actually 5 points) must be something pretty obscure. Can you provide a hint?
EDIT: Forget it. When I checked my notes, I realised that I had been playing the game from scratch and had forgotten to do something obscure on the replay. I now have 50/50.
I found three caches and have 45/50 points. I'm at the port trying to board my ship. When I say BOARD SHIP it asks "Are you sure you want to board and end you adventure?". Can find the right command here. I tried YES, SURE, and number of others, but nothing works. Can you share the right command for boarding? Or maybe this is not actual end?
Awesome! You were on the right track, but you must be *really* sure!
Thanks! As a geocacher I enjoyed in this. :)
Can't find the right combo to end the game. Can you maybe share the exact command? I tried all possible adverbs alone and in combination with yes and sure.
"board ship really" works. I will rework this part in an update. I did not intend that people get stuck on guessing on that part.
