THE MESSENGER

                                 WALKTHROUGH

 

This is a walkthrough for "The Messenger” it is not a detailed walkthrough, such as turn left or right etc. But rather a general one that does not take all of the fun out of the adventure. Prepared by Pam Slack([email protected]) and Doug Weaver([email protected]).

We are avid game players and this was a good game. This walkthrough will take you from room to room in the order you need to follow to complete the game. It will not tell you where to pick-up items, or how to use them. It will tell you the room you should be in, the items to use in that room, the items you should pick-up in that room and what action or function will happen in that room. If you pick-up each item from each room as outlined you will be able to do what is stated in the room(s) after.

 

A few things that you need to be familiar with:

1-    There are inventory chests located in various rooms throughout the game. You need to remember where they are. Your actual inventory will consist of what you are carrying plus what is in the inventory chest. So there will be times you may carry your knife and there will be other times you will not need it. Because you will need the space for a more needed item. Of course you will also at times combine and un-combine items, as they are needed.

2-    Learn to travel from room to room by using “The plan of the Louvre” found by right click on mouse. In the lower right hand corner of the screen, it is identified with an icon of a castle tower. Of course you can only travel this way only after fist visiting the room.

3-    Save often, definitely save when we tell you. We only tell you when there is a chance you may be killed.

 

Have fun, look everywhere, save often, be open-minded.
