Thanks for checking it out Ewokman! Hope you figured out and were able to play through. Dionwave also couldn't figure out what to do... so copying from my other reply :-) ..."The game ignores user input if the player's face is not happy or a red flash warning. There's a pause button when this happens at the bottom right of the screen that you need to click and choose an action to make the player's face happy and regain focus, thus regain control of your character.
