When I went on the site to find info about the game, there's been a patch released. It might have solved your problem. Temper temper

Keepsake is great (I want a waistcoat like the one Lydia is wearing). And that puzzle is exactly the one I am stuck on right now.

Someone please tell me that not all the in-game dialogue is as patronising as that particular line ...

No, most of the time it's just cheesy.

Are the puzzles of Keepsake "well" integrated with the storyline? For example, I feel the puzzles of Aura, Myst and Exile are out of place, while those of Riven, Revelation and Still life fit in nicely.

Her arms are way to short!
I've played through the game and that was one of the things that irritated the heck out of me.. An other thing was that they haven't a clue how to animate animals, at least not when they walk in stairs.. Beautiful enviroment and nice puzzles though..

Sorry i've been away for a while, but back now momentarily. My usual spam will return in good time.
I just wanted to say that im much farther through Keepsake now, and i havn't had a SINGLE crash and only ONE bug. The one bug was minor, only appeared once and it was simply the background all turning WHITE with only lydia and Zak visible. It took me about 30 seconds to get out of that screen and everything was fine. How about trying to purchase a copy of the Australian version if you're having problems? i have it, have applied the patch and theres no worries. Try Dstore.com or something they have the budget version for $40 AU which is quite cheap in US dollars, about $28 or something. anyway.... good luck finding a better copy, obviously theres some buggy versions out there. but im enjoying keepsake and still battling my way thru, currently stuck on some pretty tough puzzles which ive been playing around with for about 5 days now... but i cant bring myself to use the "HINTS" button. GoT
