1) Have Javascript enabled! It's easy to do;
just click on Tools/ Internet Options/ Advanced.

While you're there, scroll down to the Multimedia section. You should have the following boxes checked: "Play animations", "Play Sounds", "Play Videos" and "Show Pictures".

UPDATE for IE7 users! - Be aware that Microsoft has now supressed Javascript alerts by default. The fix is simple, though. And you won't have to restart your computer.
Just go to Tools/Internet Options/Security/Custom, and then all the way down near the bottom to where it says "Allow websites to prompt for information using scripted windows" and check "Enable". Easy!
ALSO, don't click inside the text boxes before you type your answers, or else you will get an "invalid" page. Leave your mouse alone and just type in the data. I don't know why this is an issue now, but trust me.


2) Have your audio codecs up-to-date. This site uses compressed wav files extensively. You need the MPEG Layer-3 codec to hear them.


3) Turn your speakers up to at least medium volume.



4)Run your mouse over the pictures! You won't get very far if you don't collect any keys or special items for your inventory.


5)Be patient! If you keep hitting your browser's BACK button, then you are sure to get frustrated. Instead of using the BACK button, make a habit of using this

button. It is designed to advance your progress at certain times, so you will need it.


6)Check the Blueprints if you get lost.


7)And most importantly---have fun !
