Hello everyone,

I'm playing BS1, and enjoying it quite a bit. But I have run into a problem:

There is this cat in Syria that's supposed to get nervous and topple a statue. The sequence seems to be: pet it, then quickly ring the bell. It says so in UHS, and the gamespot w/t.

But the cat won't move!

I'm using ScummVM 0.9.1, it could be a bug.

Thanks very much.

Can't interact with the Cat in Syria?

Avoid saving the game on the Syria Market screen.

The kid outside needs something red and shiny first...

Spoiler:

He needs the red ball first, and you have to trade it with him. Have you found the man infront of the carpet that looks like the matchbook you got in your inventory?

You can download a save just after that part here:

Thanks to all. My description was not to accurate: I can interact with the cat, it runs and sits on the shelf when petted - but does nothing when the door opens. I have tried the red nose with the kid, and have been to the Alamut club (poor hint on UHS, by the way). I think I'll just try the savegame. Thanks again.

To get acces to the toilet in the club you need to return the toiletbrush... The kebab-man has the toiletbrush... To get the toiletbrush from him you need to trade the red ball with the kid and in return he will tell you what to say to the kebab-man to get the brush. When he has the ball he will start bouncing it on the door, and only when he does that can you get the statue down.

Wow, so that did the trick indeed. The UHS hints were confusing; the GameSpot w/t was ok, if played strictly in order... The cat won't move until you have been to

Spoiler:

the toilet!

Thanks to all. It's not everyday you get stuck even with hints and a w/t!
