Sorry about the delay, guys! Here it is, the moment you've been waiting for. Since today is Day of the Dead now... Might as well call it that! And here! A seemingly random image to go along with it.

Thank you all for your support and patience with the delay and whatnot. We put a toooon of time into the the last week or so.

As for EA, I'll be back on track for normal updates AFTER the mid-month update. I've kinda burned myself out after this project, and need a little break (and I'll be house-sitting for a friend till Friday while they are out of town). I'll be doing one route update for mid-month and then back to normal 2 route updates at the end of this month.

 Thank you all again for your support, and we hope you enjoy our little special! (I say little, but it's rather large, I think. Lots to do!).

We'll be offering hints and such later on, in case things are difficult to figure out too, but don't expect that right away! So, no spoilers!

Please, do not redistribute this! It's free for our Patrons, and it's not available to anyone else right now.

You might see me edit this periodically.  My thought-process is all over the place right now.  Sorry!  I might also be slow to reply to messages/comments till the weekend too!  I'll try to get to them ASAP.

Comments

found it! i won't say how but it's something i really should have tried at the start

Vivienne

It would appear right after the Ouija board scene ends. Kirin explains something to Fum.

DyneWulf

i still can't find the last background image, according to the comments it gets triggered with the right ouija board choices but does it happen immediately or at some point later?

Vivienne

For "others" visit the spider room without clicking on the web in the dining room. For "specials" look at image 38 then look at images 46 and 47 you should be able to figure out what you're missing.

Richard

Oh my gosh I feel so dumb haha. I missed clicking on one thing in that room. Whoops. Thanks Dyne!

Zaos

There's a separate key for that door. Entry 12 in a journal should point you in the right direction.

DyneWulf

I seem to be running into an issue I know I've collected all three fragments from the spider woman, from the chest and from the wardrobe but when I attempt to unlock the last door on the left (across from the twins room) it keeps saying we should be looking for a way out. Am I just being a dunce here? Is there something I'm supposed to do to combine the fragments that I'm unaware of?

Zaos

okay, it seems like I'm missing #39 in "specials" and #5 in "others" and then I will be 100% complete. can anyone help me?

Wyatt Fons

I see what you did there with the "Blackened Behemoth" part. very clever.

Wyatt Fons

Sounds like you might be missing the actual mushroom, what you get out of the master's chest is a mushroom shaped container. If you haven't already found the mushroom room in the library, click on the doll under the desk in the gamer's room (2nd room on the left) if you don't understand the reference you can google what it says and it's pretty easy to figure out from there. If you already did all that then I don't know what the issue might be.

Richard

I finally have all of the helpers! xD But the only thing that I'm having trouble with is the potion the ghost told me about. I keep getting "the potion is a dud" and I have no idea how to get it to work. I tried a lot of combinations to be on the ghost's good side (not all of them, I think) and in the hall, Jun still tells me the potion is a dud. I do have the mushroom from the Master's room but I feel like I'm missing something and I can't quite figure out what, exactly. Could someone help me with this, please? xD

Blueferreira

You cannot >.> Initially, it had a purpose, but as our deadline approached, we tweaked things, and it no longer served a purpose.

DyneWulf

should i be able to unlock the door on the left just before the library? that seems to be the only thing left to do??? Ive gotten the all the potion endings i think all 4

The potion is a dud because you were rude to the ghost. If the ghost is offended you will feel an evil presence when stepping away from the oiji board. So be mindful how you greet and thanks the ghost for helping you :)

Rahal

The soda is standing out in the open in one of the rooms on the right side of the corridor with the living quarters.

Rahal

I got the door unlocked, have all the followers, got all 3 fragments and unlocked the chest, and I made the potion that the ghost told me. I am so thoroughly stumped on where to go now. In the hall he tells me the potion is a dud, and I cant figure out anywhere else to go. Still no clue what the doll is all about. Could someone inbox me some guidance???

Dkrewe

Did you not already get all three key fragments..? You should focus on that first. The mushroom will be among the very last things to worry about.

Taylor

I got all the helpers, but missing at least 6 or 7 pictures.

Teddy

gotten to the mushroom place (finally) now I need something to store the mushroom in...

Wyatt Fons

Thank you! Happy to hear that

DyneWulf

Last image deals with the ouija board choices. The 19th one... uuhhh, u can't look at the file atm, so I dunno which thay is x3. Glad you've enjoyed it!

DyneWulf

Read Imanok backwards , and use that hunt to get through the maze. And Google the first phrase of what the doll says of you don't recognize th doll, and perhaps that'll help.

DyneWulf

That spirit potion only works if you also have a mushroom in your possession.

Taylor

im just missing the second to last helper. I cant find the spider room or find the mushroom whatever and im trying the hints with the imanok code and ive tried the fowlooing the dools hint clue

Well, i've got everything exept for the 19th and the last picture in the backgrounds category does any of you guys have a hint? I've greatly enjoyed this game by the way!!!! And sorry for my bad english but it's not my native language.

It was a great game! Thanks for all the work you put into it.

Shadowcrawler

First guy deals with the Oujia board. Those things have some specific rules to them.

DyneWulf

Welp, I still don't have the first guy unlocked and even after trying a ton of things I still can't get him. I don't really know what I'm missing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Fil

you need to use the konami code on the maze to get to the spider lady, but you can only get there once, and you need to bring her something to open a box there.

Wyatt Fons

I think the last two puzzles I have to do are get to the mushroom forest, and get the soda for spider lady

Wyatt Fons

Thanks to Dyne's hint, I know the meaning behind the doll's saying. I can't get into the locked door, have three key fragments, can unlock the drawer in Chibi's room. Don't know what the spider room is or how to reach.

Teddy

I'm still missing two helpers, probably the scientist and maybe whoever the other person is. I followed the potion equation the spirit gave me and was respectful( it's called a dud).

Teddy

You just need one more? Possibly the one in the Spider Room then... If that's the case, check the gamer room wardrobe for a hint to get there.

DyneWulf

Boris will tell you that there are multiple potion combos, and there is one person that will change the ending images slightly as well.

DyneWulf

I got the chest, but cannot figure out the twins at all

Arkanum Zilong

i just need one more helper, i got to the end of the maze,but i dont know how to get the mushroom or what i would do with it, or what i need to do to open the chest, i think i have only 1 piece of the key, im on a bit of a stop here haha :P

Diego Garza

I've found all the helpers and I'm somehow still missing just about half of the gallery. Are there secret interactions in the throne room or something??? Mildly confused here lol.

Mikazuki

Guys, i cant resolve the math problem, anyone has a tip or the result? Its making me crazy :((((

If I'm not mistaken, it was the collab image I did with Waffle. It appears through some special dialogue after the Ouija board, assuming you made enough right choices ;3

DyneWulf

I'm only missing the very last background gallery image. Any hints as to what it is?

Taylor

Thanks! Glad to hear that you really got into it. We plan on running another update in the future for it too, just to add some extra little things in it that we weren't able to add yet. That room... well, it's a bit deceiving. It did have a purpose at first, but as things progressed and time ran short, we cut that out for now. Maybe we'll use it eventually.

DyneWulf

Well I have to say that was a blast, it's been about 15 years or so since I had to break out a pen and paper and take notes while playing a game, difficult enough to be be fun without being so difficult as to be rage inducing, a tricky balance to find sometimes . I would guess since all the galley images are unlocked I've seen everything, though I was surprised there was nothing with the barred room in the left hallway. At any rate I thoroughly enjoyed this and I am very interested in the I.D.E.K.A. comic now too, once we're past the holidays and I am in a more financially stable state I will definitely look into supporting it, I am looking forward to seeing the new updates for EA too.

Richard

Google what the doll says and see if that helps ;3

DyneWulf

Hehe, that's part of the IDEKA comic over on CMs patreon.

DyneWulf

okay, I have the secret potion and two of the three key fragments. not sure where the mushroom room is yet.

Wyatt Fons

I am suddenly very curious about the slime incident....

Wyatt Fons

Check out some of the other posts and comments here. Lots of hints located in them :3

DyneWulf

Read journal entry 12, and that'll give you an idea where to look.

DyneWulf

I keep wanting to tell people.. Check Room 4 (Or 1 or 2 or 3), then I remember... they don't know how I labeled the rooms. He deals with the Ouija board~ Those things have some... interesting rules I researched.

DyneWulf

I have the 3 keys, the secret potion and found my way to the mushroom room. I can't open the locked door. Any tips?

Argh, missing just the 1st guy, why is he escaping my grasp!

Typo-kun

Thank you, and I gotcha covered :3 Sent you a message in regards to that.

DyneWulf

I was unlucky to be a declined pledge while the messages were being sent out. So sad. ; - ; You worked so hard on it all Dyne, so you get all the well deserved R&R.

If you consider it as a×y = b for ease of communication Y can't be 1 And the largest digit of b can't be 8. If a or y are even, so is the lowest digit of b. And with those constraints... trial and error

Rahal

THe image posted has a clue.

DyneWulf

how can you understand what the bird is saying? i cant make heads or tails of it. is there any way you can understand what hes saing?

shadowhaz

Google what the doll says~ See if that helps any.

DyneWulf

What comes from the code box is not a fragment! Just a normal key.

DyneWulf

Should be getting into the Master's Room and opening his chest!

DyneWulf

So, everyone seems to be way farther than me. I got the three key fragments from the rooms (Chest, Box, Wardrobe) and from comments above and text in the game, it seems they unlock the chest in the room at the end of the hall on the left? But when I click on it with all 3 key fragments, it makes it seem like I don't have all of them yet. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

SilverS

I can't figure out how to get the 4th helper... Can someone message me with a clue or two please?

Faffy

were do you get the book

Jon

I hope it's coach

Jon

and the book

Jon

were do I find the 3 key fragment? hint place

Jon

I got the chest

Jon

I guess im no good at puzzles can someone message me some hints?

Kyle

I guess in no good at this stuff I can't figure anything out. Can somebody message me some hints?

Kyle

I still can't get the code to the chest I'm not good at math can somebody give me a hint?

Jon

same really haha i just cant seem to find that maze or spider lady everyone is talking about, im missing #4 and #5

Diego Garza

You only use the last four digits.

Taylor

so I recently started playing the first Halloween one after getting stuck on this one (solved the math one and the birthdate one, stuck on the rest) and holy hell, the tone is so much different! it's like, an actual horror game, but then also everyone seems to be lewder, it's weird. if anyone could help on the puzzles to this one I would be very grateful!

Wyatt Fons

Cant seem to find the mushroom maze! IDK how to follow that doll

Ron

got the multiplication code on my third guess, frickin sweet

Wyatt Fons

But seriously, everyone. Chibi is best helper. Hands-down.

Taylor

That last helper is in the spider room.

Taylor

i got an answer for the multiplication puzzle but it seems like its not the answer? idk what to do xD

Diego Garza

what do u do with the mushroom?

reureu98

I spent countless hours on Super Mario RPG... and then even more when it was downloadable on the Wii U. I still have the original cartridge I'm my room. Lol

WAIT WHAT!! I can't even get into the locked door. I am in the mushroom room but I can't put them in anything

Zachary Maynard

YES! Thank you so much for the last little hint, Dyne. It was all I needed to get nearly everything. :) Only missing one Background CG. I have a feeling I know what it may be related to.. but I think I can be a little more patient now that I figured out most of the big stuff. :) Thank you so much for all of your hard work putting this game together for all of us, and many many kudos to CursedMarked, too! He did some really wonderful pieces for this and really captured life and personality with his depictions of all of the characters. Much love to the both of you wonderful gents. <3

Taylor

Gem no one can message you. Gotta change your profile from private to public. Also msg me when you can because I wanna know so bad how to get stud #1 and # 4

Zachary Maynard

Just wanted to say thank you for making another great Halloween special, you can see all the hard work you put into polishing the game. Makes me very excited to see what E.A will look like when its completed :D

The key pieces don't open anything with the barred door. They open the chest in the pentagram room (Jun's room at the far back-left of the hallway).

Taylor

Only if you're really struggling tho, solving these puzzles was half the fun ^.^

is it stupid that i havent been able to get into the spidder room or the mushroom maze. at all and im only missing one helper.

I figured out how to get to the spider lady. Don't know anything past that. I need #1 and #4

Zachary Maynard

I find it hilarious that Kirin runs a shop witha bunch of guys who are in no way interested in her.

TiredFins

I have only been able to finish the cabinet lock, the combination lock (the math one) and that is it. I am stuck and can't find anything else, and if I go into the main hall it all just ends. :'(

Dkrewe

The math one is driving me fucking crazy!!! Only 2 numbers are given! How the hell am I supposed to figure it out? Are there other numbers that I am missing?

Zachary Maynard

So I can't figure out what to do with the talking doll. And I found a room in the library filled with mushrooms, but Kirin couldn't carry any and now I can't get back in even with the same pattern. I'm guessing something is past the barred door but no clue how to open it. But I'm guessing whatever I need the key pieces for must be in there because they don't work on the sixth door...

Asio Doxos

Don't overthink that one. There isn't really much of the clue there.

DyneWulf

I still can't get that stupid word box....where the hell is the clue for that?

Sage Taiga

Is that important to something in the game (serious question)?

Bunnylover

Holy shit dude the combination lock one is so hard to crack. I have never tried so much guess and check in my life.

Mike

It should be noted, the instagram is XOXOkirin, not XDXDkirin

It's probably a bug.

Samuel Trejo

You should try reading the journals of everyone.

Samuel Trejo

Isn't the doll under the bedside table near the code box in Chibi's room? I hear it say things, but I don't know how to follow it.

Taylor

...also same.

Taylor

Same!

Taylor

and the dollllll!!!!!!!

reureu98

if someone figure out the mushroom u find in the box please tell me

reureu98

You're missing Chibi? You get him through the spider lady. Follow the konami code in the maze.

Mikazuki

i am going to wait til you guys put up the spoils cause i am not bursting my brains over this anymore

Ryon Damon

I'm only missing two helpers (the fourth and fifth ones). Does anyone know how to unlock them? x) Currently missing the 3rd key fragment, though.

Blueferreira

I feel like there are conditions that need to be followed.. I thought I heard Jun say something to that degree when mentioning the potion. :( I thought it would be to get the mushroom or the helpers.. but I dunno

Taylor

Same here, not sure what to do with them :(

Bunnylover

Yay! I finally found all of the helpers! But still so many Gallery pieces missing. Time to try some more combos... There's still one or two things that are bugging me. Like the plastic mushroom and secret fourth potion recipe.

Taylor

So does the potion the spirit tell you just a dud?

Bunnylover

what is the format to putting the code into the chest. I know I got the correct answer but the 2 different ways I entered it didn't work

Tal

I found out the code to the chest after 10 minutes of calculations. I'm so happy I'm a math major!

Tal

But I suppose I'll say that the image I posted has some help on it.

DyneWulf

This game is much more convoluted than I'd imagined. I even wrote a Python script to solve a riddle xD

BluHaz

No spoilers, guys :3 Me and CM will be offering hints in a few days.

DyneWulf

Chibi you get by the spider lady. Have you reached her yet?

Bunnylover

how do i find the chibi doll ?

reureu98

I only got Taro, the twins, and Eros. The other three, no idea.

Teddy

spirit?

reureu98

Has anyone been able to unlock all the master helper

Bunnylover

Something odd just happened, I followed the instructions the spirit gave, and it shattered my potion. And I didn't anger it. What questions will appease the spirit?

Teddy

What room with a pentagram?

Teddy

have anyone else found the sipderlady

reureu98

I like reading the answer to the question of the Ouji board lol

Bunnylover

Can someone tell me where the lab is? I've done everything else, I believe, but don't see where I"m missing the lab.

Bunnylover

ok i am stuck at the lab part what do i do from here

Ryon Damon

where are the three keys for the black chest in the red room with pentagram

reureu98

Glad to see this page of the comic completed and everything also enjoyed the Halloween VN.

Loremaster22

yea but wh it is

Ryon Damon

Does the journal in Taro's room change what it says on purpose or is that a bug.

can someone help me with the twins i am getting fustrated just tell me what it is.

Ryon Damon

what is this twins one can you tell me or message me it please

Ryon Damon

Twins are extremely easy. Go to the middle of the hallway and go to the right. Read the journal entries.

Mikazuki

has anyone figured out the twins

Ryon Damon

Thanks man

Teddy

@David Drake I need more Chester in my life, and in my bed. ;)

Rahal

Yea I got to the lab I just didn't know what to do from there since I didn't have the guide thingy lol. Tips for the chest are on the table next to the chest. He has it on the chair like thing. Anyone know how to get to the forest part??

Mikazuki

Since you'll be doing one route update for mid-month I hope it's coach or Chester!! ;)

David Drake

The chest is actually fairly easy. You know that 7 has to be the second number and 6 has to be the last number. For the last digit of the 3 digit number you can figure out what times what can give you 6. The rest is just plug and go. Got to the lab and now I have no idea what to do. :D

Mikazuki

have anyone got in the last door on the left of the hall

reureu98

how do i get in to the maze , and i solved the two box and the twin puzzles

reureu98

Can anyone give me a hint for the word box?

Teddy

6

Teddy

how many rooms are in the hall ?

reureu98

I can't figure out the word box, can someone give me a hint?

Teddy

Took me nearly 15 min to figure out the chest code. It's quite simple, actually, loved it xD

Blueferreira

i almost got it all figured out i got into the lab

Everos

There won't be any hints just yet! Gotta give it a few days at least ;3

DyneWulf

I managed to figure out the chest and the twins puzzle. but its the rest of the clues I'm unsure of

Kageichi

Hmm, I read over it again and can understand why that might seem misleading. Might have to adjust tat later on!

DyneWulf

What's the twins please help lol

LunaRose971

1 to 8 can only use each numbers once I hate math

Everos

Ugh I managed the twins but I can't figure out the chest combination. I really suck at math and finding an equation out like this is hard XD

Kageichi

Not that I'm trying to give away spoilers this early, however the chest combo is a bit misleading. It only requires the last four digits of the equation. Took me hours to figure that out. Hope that helps.

Samuel Trejo

got the twins room that one was easy

Everos

the chest combo is hard to figure out

Everos

I got the combination however its not letting me open the chest unless I'm typing it wrong...

Samuel Trejo
