Hi – thanks for the Crimson manor walk through -v helpful so far- will you be finishing it anytime soon?
I’m stuck on number 17 with the phone, when i press it no latch opens and it says no dial tone??
You need to use the phone number from the computer.
I have the same problem , I enter the phone number but get the no dial tone msg and I’ve tried many times.
please help me im really stuck on the arrows under the lions i put them in in order but nothing works … pleeeeease help !! im gettin quite frustrated with it lol
Hi,
frustrating
did you manage with those 3 arrows under lions??? help, please!!
You need to tap on the handle on the right hand side afterwards.
Top circle : arrow pointing right
Bottom left circle: arrow pointing left
Bottom right circle: arrow pointing northwest
Then turn in circles the handle.
i got the microchip but it won’t let me insert it into the computer.. I need HELP
Same thing is happening to me with the microchip. Have you gotten this figured out yet?
Did u figure it out? How to put the microchip in the computer?
Open chest select chip close treasure chest and insert chip
I am stuck on 20… I do the coordinates but there is no lever… after i tap the coordinates they disappear.
my tablet will not reveal a lever either, even though i enter the coordinates correctly in the proper order. The inside tiles are outlined a bit more, but no arrows or levers. I’ll probably delete the game. It’s a shame. I was enjoying it. Did you ever get a lever?
You need to press the numbers, not slide your finger like a real life phone. Also, to everyone who cant get past the co-ordinates, you have to put the magnifying glass on the book first even if you can already see the co-ords or already know them.
How do you get a dial tone on no.17? I dial the computer help number, only get “nothing happens, no dial-tone..”
Make sure you have gotten the number from the computer first. Then go to the phone and press on the numbers one at a time.
504 051 185
Same happens with me Please helP someone
I am stuck on the same bit except I got the latch unlocked but there is no microchip? How does it come out and where ?
where are the codes for the rest of the game so lost on green code!!!??? Help me please!!
Thank you!
What is the code for the blue keyboard as it doesn’t give that. Really stuck
It’s in the screenshot.
Thank you. Couldn’t see that screenshot before as it was of a different picture. Much appreciated
Im stuck on number 20 does the coordinates go In particular order??
Yes, the order you see them in under the magnifying glass.
Can’t find the right order for the coordinates in crimson manor 20 tried all ways
Did you find out the order I tried everything
Is there any way to go back in the final act? I managed to enter the correct blue and green codes – but not the red. It says in point 5 to read the journal – I didn´t see it and now I can´t get back.
I am also stuck on 17. Have looked at computer and tried to dial phone and I get a message that says “nothing happened, no diAl tone”. What am I doing wrong???
you need to have the sound on. no dial tone=no sound on your phone!
Great walk thru, but I’m still stuck on the bit I looked for a walk thru for!
I have the code for the padlocked door on the right in the garden (the code from the bottle), but I can’t get the numbers on the padlock to change. I’n guessing this is because the cog from the right of the padlock is missing, but there’s nothing on the walk thru? Please help.
Many thanks
I was stuck on that too, you just need to slide the numbers along, not tap them
how did you figure out the colour codes in the end of the game?!
i tried to figure it out by my self but couldnt do it? :p
Just complete the sequence of the numbers shown on each keypad.
Hi I’m stuck on 20 tried everything and its driving me mad could you plz help thanx
I am stuck on 20… I do the coordinates but there is no lever… after i tap the coordinates they disappear.
Why are there no clues to what the number sequence might be? Blue code, red code…frustrating! I love these type games but need something to go on. I think having to check the walk through is like cheating.
haha thx, i think i over thought it!
I am stuck at the arrows under the lions what order do they go in I’ve trie everything and can’t open the handle to get the wine HELP!!!!
i am stuck at the arrows under the lions and cannot turn the lever to get the wine
I’m stuck in the same place. I’ve tried all combinations of the arrows, but can’t open anything. I’ve tried the lever….no success.
The arrows under the lions are the arrows from the statuettes. Its in thesame place you got the circle medallian things to put over the lion heads
I am still stuck on number 20 I can’t figure out the sequence in which the coordinates go please help!!
Im stuck on 17 I don’t have all 3 emblems where are all of them , I must have missed 1 ?
im stuck on the coordinates for the map tried all ways to put them in and nothing seems to work help
I’m stuck in the same place – put them in as shown in screenshot and nothing happens- did you figure it out?

You’re not supposed to mov their arms.
Havin trouble with the cheerleaders can’t seem to get them to do anything help!
Hi I have got the first emblem and the third emblem but I can’t figure out where the second emblem is. Can someone please tell me I am really stuck, thanks!
It’s ok I’ve got it now, it turns out I forgot to lift it up after completing the arrows puzzle
It won’t allow me to move the cheer leaders legs?
go in to the room where the map is and go up stairs there is a picture on the wall thats were ya change there arms and legs xx
You change the arms and legs on theposterup the stairs from the study, not these in the bedroom with the cheer leaders.
Great! Couldn’t have done it alone….wonder what happens if you press the red button at the end?!
If you hit the red button, pretty much the same thing happens – a speech about making decisions and how Mr Strange didn’t have the guts to make the decision himself. The world continues as it was with time passing normally.
Hi. Im at the end of the game where i have to insert the blue code, what is the code, because i can’t see it on your help pitcure, there is another picture, not a pitchure of the code…
I know it is the nummer thats on the computer screen, But i cant get out from the blue code screen… :/

Im stuck at the power section. Your guide looks like it has a handy picture to ex
Silly phone posting before I was ready.
Anyway, power puzzle. Your guide looks like it has a handy picture to show me exactly what to do, except in its place is the cheerleader picture again so I’m a little stumped.
I’m so stuck on the phone, too. I’m trying to dial, but I don’t know how to. I touch the numbers, but that doesn’t seem to work, and it keeps telling me there’s no dial tone. Help!
Don’t have a sword to use on the statue. Where is it found?
nevermind. used arrow diagram to properly set clock hands.
Were u able to get the sword out? I cannot get the clock door to open even tho it says the door is now open. Any hints?
when u set up the correct time see in the image then the clock will automatically open the sword is inside

Media city games!!! Please answer OUR questions. Obviously you have not thought out all the twist & turns of this game because a lot of us are stuck! We can’t do anything. Please!! We love the game but something does not make sense.
I am sooooo curious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Would anyone please tell me what happens when you press the green button at the end?
I replayed the whole game to find out but I think I might have accidently pressed the red button again and I am not playing that game for the third time!
Adriane,
Can you please help me? I don’t know why I can’t get my shovel to dig? I see the X on the map, but it is not working.
Thank you!
jennifer
Please tell me the secret i am stuck on the loin area too.
I found with the chip and shovel both I had to open the box, select the item, then close the box before tapping where the item goes.
Adriane,
Can you please help me? I don’t know why I can’t get my shovel to dig? I see the X on the map, but it is not working.
Thank you!
jennifer
No matter how hard I try I cannot get my shovel to dig near the lions HELP! What’s the secret to getting it to dig?
If you push the green button time is frozen no new life…people who are sick stay in pain for eternity…you have made a self centered choice that influences all…now what happened when you pushed the red button because I am not going back again either
Just started Ellie…Help me out. My numbers are 730 and 630 but I don’t know understand from the walkthrough how to decipher the code and what to do. Please help
I have tried over and over and can’t get my shovel to dig where the x is marked on the map? HELP!
If you make sure you have selected the shovel and click the ground to the left of the water fountain with the three lion heads it should work… it is hard sometimes to make sure you’ve selected the right item at the right point
I have tried over and over and can’t get my shovel to dig where it says on the map! HELP!
Tap by the bench, not below the lions.
Having great trouble with the dials under the lion fountain anyone else? I have tried every combination wondering if there is a problem with the game?!
How on earth can I get the safe open under the lions help I’ve put the arrows in the right places but nothing happens
Loved this game and only one thing puzzled me where are the clues to tell you the sequence for the barrels… is it just a case of guessing there seems to be no order… I had to use the walk through for this bit…
i was stuck ..finally i complete the game from walkthrough
thanks a lot
I cannot get the computer to take the ‘microchip’….can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
What is the code for the padlock on the wine cellar door?
Thank goodness you were here with a walk thru I never would have been able to complete without you…..where in the hell were these clues?????
I can’t figure it out how to get 1610 for the blue keypad. Can anyone explain it to me?
oh.. sorry… i mean the red keypad…
Like this game, but who wrote the notes at the end? The English is atrocious and so is the spelling
thanks for the help. I was so stuck. this was easy to follow. but where did you get the keypad codes from?
Codes are the next numbers in the sequence of given numbers
I need on opening the foreman door. I installed the battery but cannot get door to open very frustrated.pq
Thanks for the good help. Screenshots helped get me through a couple of tough spots!
Thanks for the good help. Screenshots helped get me through a couple of tough spots!
I need to get through to the foreman’s door. What do I do after I put the battery in its space. I am stuck. Please help.
The instructions are in the groundskeeper’s shed (or whatever he was called). They are on the table, next to his journal, in the first building to the right as you step out the back door. (In the screen with the birdhouse, you click on the stairs on the right hand side of the screen to get there.)
What happens if you push the red button.
I was able to solve all the puzzles without any help, except for the wine barrels. Thanks for posting the solution on here.
But I am still curious, where was the clue that explained what positions the symbols on the wine barrels should be in? I swear I looked every where.
Never mind, I finally figured out that the barrel puzzle contained its own clue as to how to solve it.
This rocks,I think it is such a help:(
woooooooooooooooooow:)
I cant find the 2nd embalem to open the secretwall its not listed on this walkthrough
The computer will not take the chip to open the door upstairs. Any hints?
Try inserting the chip before you actually click on the computer (which brings the close up view of the computer screen).
I tried that with no luck so far. Tried everything. I don’t want to give up yet.
Thanks for replying.
Wow, ok it worked finally. Thanks.
How long did it take you to get the microchip in the computer? got this game yesterday on my Kindel Fire and it wont go in. I’ve been trying for about 2 hours. Both at a distance and up close. It “selects: but will not move. HELP
Honestly, it wasn’t an issue with me in the least because I noticed the “slot” wasn’t viewable when I was “at the computer” when I pulled up the screen of available “things” to insert, so I just backed up and then inserted it without a problem.
I played this game using my Kindle Fire. So if I had to guess, some devices aren’t fully compatible. BTW, the Fire runs Gingerbread… so maybe newer, or older, versions of Android are having problems.
Fred, I have been trying but am having no luck with this microchip I have a new Kindle fire that I got a couple weeks ago. I’ve tried what you suggested and it still will now insert to the computer. It does “highlight” or “select” itself when I tap on it but it will not budge out of the treasure chest. I am getting so frustrated with this, I even tried to go back and start the game over again but it won’t let me. Thanks for responding anyways. Hope you enjoy the game.
I just replayed it and this is what I did to insert the chip.
I was at the computer screen and then tapped the chest to open up my inventory. Then tapped the chip to select it. Then tapped the chest to close the inventory… so I could see the slot for the chip. Then tapped the slot. Bingo, chip inserted.
That’s all there was to it for me. If that doesn’t work for you, you might want to try uninstalling the game and then reinstalling it. Good luck.
It took me a day and a half to get the chip inserted. I tried all different ways, and finally had to ask in here. I did what Fred said and it worked but after a couple of times trying. Good luck. Fun game!
I just got this game on my kindle fire. How do I get the key out of the lions mouth. Please help
What am I doing wrong? The clock door doesn’t open even tho it says the door is now open.
Whew, took me nearly 2 days but I got the sword.
Silver… If u press red button get a congratulations for making desicion… And time and life carries on with good bad happening as it was intended to be
I finally got the chip in, didn’t realize I needed to touch the slot on the computer. NOW JUST STUCK ON THE MAP. Tried going in order, backwards, all different ways and nothing.
The map is pretty straight forward… just select the locations in the order they are presented in.
To be honest, there are far more detailed walkthroughs out there than what this site has to offer. Ones that explain things in far more detail. So if this walkthrough isn’t good enough for you, then I would suggest looking for another.
The reason I say this is that I only got stuck on one puzzle, the wine barrels, which this site gave me the solution… but I still was clueless as to how you were to supposed to figure it out. After posting on here that question, and not receiving an answer, I looked at other websites and finally figured it out.
*Slight Spoiler*
What it came down to is that every other puzzle before that one had clues to how to solve it… which was why I was stuck… I was looking for a clue elsewhere in the game. So after looking everywhere, forever, I finally came here. It turns out that the wine barrels, and the last 3 “puzzles”, which I solved easily, are the only 4 puzzles in the game that don’t give you a clue elsewhere. The clues are part of the puzzle.
i need help with the elevator access card where do i put it
I need help on the part where it says “Tap on the opening behind the lions to see a statue. There are three more openings, with a statue behind each one. Place the sword on the first one (courage) and take the medallion.” i don’t know where to click! i can’t find it anywhere and i’m SO frustrated. PLEASE HELP.
i am stuck on the safe box! & the info you have given me has left me completly lost? if you could exsplain more that would be awsome! thanks so much byee!
Thank you so much for the walkthrough. I do not know where I would have gotten the code to the barrols or the blue, green and red code boxes. Everything else was pretty much a easy clue. the ccreenshots helped get me through a couple of tough spots.
Can anyone help in act 3 with the crowbar where is it ? I’ve been looking but I can’t see it
Im stuck there too!!! It wont let me place the sword on the courage statue! What the heck am I doing wrong? Have you figured it out yet?
Fun & FRUSTRATING …..Thank for the walk…..nice realistic ending, eitherway.Those with kindles be sure to select the item u want to place first. The computer hit the slot first then ur chip. GOOD LUCK
