Title: stuck in prison cell after cigarette [SOLVED]
Post by: sarth650 on October 21, 2009, 02:35:37 pm
Hi!

I'm stuck in the prison cell, I have rolled the cigarette, given it to the robot, but then what? I have tried using the loose arm to stick thru the hole to the other two prisoners, but the only thing that happens is that they get scared, and then the game freezes and I have to quit, and start again.

What am I missing? I have the loose arm and the turn-thing that i found on the pipe. But they don't seem to combine.

hm... is there suppose to happen something when I stick the arm in to the other robots?

Stick the arm through the hole on the left (oh my...), the one at the back of the room with the two guys.

my screen freezes numerous times after sticking the arm throught the hole. The prisoners get scared and then the arm freezes and I can't do anything.   Froze the computer once. Had to reboot...vista..
I cannot get past this..., please help...I have turned the flash accelerator off..same result.

And switching between Fullscreen and windowed mode?

no change... the other prisoners are all moving/shaking and the music is playing but the main character is frozen with the arm throught the wall. I can save this but then when I load it it takes me back to standing in the middle of the room again.

try reaching farther....

So, was it really frozen or did you simply not try the holes on the left?

Hmm. Is this a bug in the game design?I can't get past this either. all I see is this:

It's just stuck there.

EDIT: figured it out. I consider this a flaw though as it really seems to be frozen.Need a clue.
