Lucky Spinelli muss sterben (helfen bitte!)

Got stuck in this German game. I’m in the second scene, have found the jewelbox (for which I seem to need a combination, though). Looking at scenery, the game suggests to smash the windshield, but there’s no response for that. The implementation of the two doors suggests something can be done, but I cannot open them or interact with the gangsters inside.

Can someone provide a hint? Thanks!

Hi! This was meant to be more of a joke puzzle, but now I realise

the way to get the combination is pure trash.

Ok, I managed to get in the cabin. It’s dark and I cannot interact with the glovebox or its content. I cannot return outside, so I hope I haven’t got myself into a deadlock.

You should be able to return outside, but you don’t need to.

The item you need to interact with is not mentioned in the room but is somethings you’d expect in a car.

Solved! This was really satisfying, thanks for the help.

Finding the verb to make the handbrake stop being angezogen was quite a process.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the game! Thanks for playing.

I enjoyed it, found it very funny.

The forgiving difficulty level was welcome, I could struggle with the language for as long as I needed. I recommend it to others who are dabbling in the German language (I passed an A2 exam years ago, but have forgotten most of it).

When the ECTO 24 list of games was released I noticed this one immediately, as it reminded me of Fernández Must Die, an old 8-bit arcade game (which I’ve always remembered because back then as a kid I thought the title was an odd combination of words).

So, um, not sure I’m misreading you

but the game continues after the truck rolls over them. It’s an any key prompt, not the smartest choice in retrospect.

Oh, I thought the game had ended there (either Spatterlight did not render a ‘press any key’ prompt or I missed it).

I have a savegame so I’ll get back to it tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up.

Luckily the interpreter had kept the session. I am now in the third chapter, but can’t find what to do in the darkness.

Edit 1: Never mind, solved this on my own (I noticed the clue when trying to hinaus).

Edit 2: Got stuck again. Now I’m in the chemical plant, I can’t distract the worker. Some actions make him notice me (like operating the panel) and I can’t seem to be able to push him.

Thanks for sticking with it!

Final clue:

What’s the one thing we know Spinelli hates?
