The last thing I did was get the bigger bag.

I still cant feed the horse, enter the castle, walk past the farmers land, get the cat down, etc...

I'm stuck in this first area with a house full of stuff I have no clue how to use. I;m afraid I'm missing something pretty obvious or I'm just a moron and shouldn't be playing this game.

I have: carrot, bucket, watch, window shades, cider, ship builders key. I think that's all.

Things I know I have to do are: get the cat off the organ and get the horse moving.

There's someone in town who wants the cider... try going round the town giving the cider to everyone you see.

Funny how getting your feet excessively wet lands you in jail in this game, but being a teenager and wandering round the streets with a large bottle of cider... none of the guards bat an eyelid...

Okay, I'll try that.

Is there a clue that points to that or is the player just suppose to walk blindly carrying random items until something triggers?

I hope there's just a clue I missed.

Well, kind of but not really? The kid who talks about the cider mentions he had to hide it because his dad is paranoid, so you give it to the most paranoid man in town.

Yeah, I just did it and when I realized why he accepted the cider I made the connection.

As frustrating as these crazy obscure hints are I think it's pretty cool when it all comes together.

Now that I have an idea of the sort of hints this game uses hopefully I'll be able to get by with a little less difficulty.
