Ah, of course. I had the flask all alongā¦I was just fixated on waking him up by making noise.
Heya! So I may have encountered a bug in the Music Room (or Iām missing something thatās staring me in the face):
Iām in the closet in teenage Francineās bedroom and dropped the chalk so she can fix the circle, then her and the boy leave.
But now I seem to be trapped in the closet (and yeah, I keep wanting to laugh at this situation!).
Iāve tried the commands āleave closetā and āexit closetā and they both return āBut you arenāt on the closet at the momentā (the word on here seems kind of weirdā¦). And then when I ālookā around it says āYouāre still in the closetā.
The podium isnāt here so I guess I canāt use the controls to go back to the music room. So how do I get out of this damn closet??

Hmm, I donāt remember this one clearly either. But have you tried typing OUT?

That also doesnāt work unfortunately, OUT, LEAVE, EXIT etc all say that I canāt leave the immediate area.

Managed to reproduce this & you have in fact found a deadly bug: typing āLEAVE CLOSETā strands you in a not-quite-Francineās-bedroom zone from which āOUTā no longer works & you can no longer return to the closet.
If you have been saving regularly & can get back to the point where you first typed āLEAVE CLOSETā & type āOUTā instead, everything should probably be fine! In any event I apologize.

You are NOT alone. Iām glad you reported it. I had encountered the same thing on my first play-through and just thought it was an error on my part! I had managed to go back to a previous save and came āout of the closetā again the right way that time, accidentally.
Help please! Iām hopelessly stuck in the Disheveled Studio, even after reading @e0lith helpful comments above. As near as I can tell, my problem is being āfound worthyā. Iāve gotten this far (hopefully correctly):
Iāve drawn my face on the canvas. Iāve bled on it. Iāve kissed it. Iāve applied cedar and frankincense.
But whatever I do after that doesnāt seem to be working. I think the problem is the part about:
ā¦ āmoral laxityā, āmoral leakageā, āmoral substanceā that the book talks about. Itās awfully cryptic regarding āinflaming whatever it is within my breast that will prove myself worthy to the one who choosesā.
So Iāve tried:
ā¦ drinking the musk, which incidentally is the only scent you can drink without dying, so I thought I was on to something there. But either way, when I apply the clear and the teal to the canvas and the ALL CAPS voice and Peter start talking, I keep dying ā sometimes right away, sometimes after a turn or two. So maybe thereās something Iām supposed to do in that moment?
Iām clearly missing something obvious here. Can anyone help?

Hi gd, Iām not sure whatās going wrong for you. Have you cleared all of the previous scents between attempts? Use the pale vial. Also try kissing the painting after applying the scents and see if that makes a difference - my notes indicate I kissed it twice, before and after so Iām not entirely clear on which one was necessary.
@e0lith Thanks a ton! Iām FINALLY past it, and I have no idea what was going wrong either because I started making judicious use of UNDO and TAKE BACK. But (in case anyone else gets stuck here) based on your comment, I started kissing that canvas like a mad fool. You get different feedback, about your āspirit leaving your bodyā when you kiss it after applying the first two scents, so maybe that mattered. And then the big thing that seemed like it made a difference was kissing the canvas in the turn after youāve applied the teal and gotten the ALL CAPS voice talking.

Well done! Iāve updated my original post to clarify that the kiss must be the last step. Thanks @gd.

Hi, Iām experiencing a strange issue in the tunnel entrance and wonder whether itās a serious bug or just a minor one that I fix by doing something else instead. Essentially, the switch is not turned on after I turn it on. When I then go to the southeast tunnel, the light is (probably) off. Hereās what happens:
x fuses
ā¦
Next to the fuses is a large switch labeled āSoutheast Tunnel.ā It is currently switched off.
turn on switch
You flip the power switch to the on position, and the southeast tunnel lights up.
x switch
A large antique-looking brass switch labeled āSoutheast Tunnel.ā It is currently switched off.

Subterranean tunnel (Drew M)
Your light reflects off the cold, shin-deep water. Tiny shadows jump and skitter away from you, making it hard to tell where the walls end and the wildlife begins. The tunnel continues off to the northwest. To the east lies a door. The way back to the surface lies above. To the north, the stones have recessed to form an alcove a few feet deep.
A weird woman waves and watches you wantonly from the wall.
āHey! Iām waiting! Yoohooo?ā
x woman
A woman, dressed in filthy clothes, slouches against a wall. She turns to look at you, staring at you with eyes eerily similar to yours. When you look away, she does too. Itās hard to tell much about her features from this light without getting closer.
ā¦
That is weird and I vaguely remember having some issues with that item
though it was more that I could keep switching the switch on than the issue that youāre having.
However,
If you can see the weird woman and all that stuff in the Subterranean tunnelāin fact, if you can see anything other than a darkness messageāthe light is on. So you should probably be able to proceed from where you are. You canāt get the Subterranean Tunnel to be any more lit up than that.
OK, perhaps this bug occurs since I have the flashlight then. Thanks!
Hello! I donāt know if anyone is still watching this thread, but Iāve been struggling with the Cragne Family Plot. I have the pewter box and Iāve opened and examined all of the columbariums, but I canāt find a key for the box. The āComplete Guideā thread said that the key to that box was just called ākey from an urn,ā but Iāve examined all three urns several times and I havenāt found any mention of a key. Also have checked out the statue and the headstones. Am I missing something? Should it be a different key? Iāve tried all of mine, I think. Any help is appreciated!

Just offhand (I donāt have any transcripts or save files that let me test this myself), but have you tried
searching the urns?
Thatās often the action you need to take when youāre looking for something in a container.

Found it! I didnāt realize that I had to open the urns. I figured they didnāt open as Iād already bailed out the grave a couple of times. I was imagining them more like buckets, I guess. Thanks! Searching worked perfectly.

Iām stuck trying to get the key in the back garden.
Iāve put vinegar on the cover but it keeps asking for a tool and i cant figure out how to remove the screws. Dont know if im missing something obvious, or if i just use the wrong wordingā¦
Yes, a tool is what you need. You probably havenāt found it yet.
