These games are a lot of fun, I played the first two as well.

I'm stuck on this one though. I gave the 3rd abstainer several oranges (I have the number written down lmao) and then he gave me so many apples (also have that number written down)

But those are the only two numbers i've come across. I have given the middle abstainer a ton of strawberries, and not getting any results like I did with the oranges for the other guy.... And then the first guy wants nothing from me. I don't know what I'm missing lol

Any help is appreciated!

I thought I had figured it out, but unpol doesn't show up in conversation, and so i tried just eliminating, and that didn't work for me.... I need to go to bed, but reeeeaaaalllly don't want to start over Lmao

The game saves your progress so you don’t need to worry about that.

You can actually figure out unpol's meaning by elimination. Are you sure you got all the other numbers?

I thought that I did, and did it a few times, getting the same numbers XD But no matter what number I put for unpol, it wouldn't work...

I'm super happy it saves haha, now back to it XD

thank you for replying back with hints and what not btw!

Wow, I’m so happy you’re enjoying these games! Thank you so much for playing them all!

There is a way to get all the numbers but you’ll need to understand Almondish first. Every word they say has a meaning, and you can deduce it by their reactions to different objects that you give them. Also pay attention to any overlap in words being said by different people.

hint 1

The left-most guy is trying to introduce himself and say hi. You can figure out what the words Min and Du mean. This guy doesn't want anything from you.

hint 2

The middle guy is asking you for something and he refuses to accept anything else. You can figure out what all the items in your inventory are called in Almondish and the meaning of the word Pak, Hunna and Po.

hint 3

The right-most guy wants to trade. You might deduce numbers from here.

So, I figured out what each one was basically meaning with their words, and thought I had the numbers figured out (did it again, to see if maybe I was just tired last night)

Here's what I got:

(I don't know how to do spoilers or what not, so just spacing down low enough haha)

Finmar = 8

Unpol = ?

Colma = 3

Dadar = 7

Am I anywhere close to the correct numbers?? Lmao

Oh I think I understand exactly how you’re getting the above numbers and I think a lot of other players may be having the same problem too.

Almondish is kind of a bare-bones language and you may run into trouble if you try to add proper English grammar to your translation.

Every word has exactly one meaning so when translating, you should use exactly the same interpretation everywhere.

BIG SPOILER

If you think pak means "gave" then every instance of the word pak must mean "gave" (and not any other form of the word). Try finding a word for pak that fits all 3 instances well.

Hope this helps!
