AG Community Playthrough #31: The Whispered World
Also, I don’t mind getting stuck, but when the puzzles are logical. When it involves try everything on everything for no specific reason and without any hint, that’s when I get frustrated.
I hear you, but I guess that’s quite subjective - I really didn’t try much combination just “for the sake of it”, and I’m on my second gameplay. I’m sure there are tons of responses I haven’t heard. Sometimes, I’ll try some unusual combination just to hear comments, but it wasn’t really that I was trying everything on everything just to get unstuck.

I’m in Chapter Three now in jail. The Asgil guy was a surprise—is that branchy thing his eyes or his eyebrows? I liked the parallax puzzle, partly because it’s the first screen where I can see only Spot (I parked him on the left and then walked Sadwick over to the right). Since it was five levers and I had five handy Spots, I thought he might provide inspiration. He didn’t.
I got six answers correct on the Chapter Two test. I’m willing to question the one question as to whether one eye is open or closed. When an eye is half-open, is it closed?
I’m continuing my epic Sadwick-in-different-lighting quest. Here he’s orange:
He turns back to being blue without the candlelight coloring the area:
I also, with some confidence, can call him purple here.
I am enjoying the various color changes. Another intriguing color transformation is during the pantalooning at sunset.
I like this view of the island, given what eventually happens with it.

Hehe… I knew someone will bring that up! I stared to that statue when making the quizz, and even now I’m not sure if that bigger eye is open, half-open, half-closed… but I went with the notion that if an eyeball isn’t visible, it’s closed. If I had an option: “Half-closed”, or “Half-open” instead of just open or closed, you would have had a case.

That’s one epic quest, indeed! Now you made me think how often do we see in 2D games switch of lightning effects on a main character’s model? It’s mainly reserved for 3D. I also like that island view from the end of Chapter I, makes you in retrospective realize why it’s so deserted, being a small mountain really… though I still think there could have been more characters.
There’s more where this came from.
Great stuff. Seeing that poster on the wall, I’m reminded of how The Whispered World main box cover art features slightly different Sadwick:
Perhaps the adventures when Sadwick and Spot were younger? (no wait, Spot looks older!) Hey, a prequel!

Finished Chapter 3
* The puzzle solutions just get stranger and stranger. Fun but slightly obtuse at times.
* Why dont you ever get to see more than the boss in the Asgil villiage? The guard vanishes, the cook hides and nobody else lives there.
This is a strange world, inhabited by weird creatures,.... I like it.
An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.

The last puzzle in chapter 3 was awful. How are players supposed to figure that out?? I looked up the solution the first time I played TWW and I looked it up again this time. You’d think I would remember, but no. Walkthrough solutions for trial-and-error object combinations are the first I forget.
Fortunately, the puzzles at the beginning of chapter 4 will be a lovely reward for our efforts.

The same with chapter 2. Only 3 people lived in the entire village? The world is slightly more empty than it should. It stands well in general though.
EDIT: Please people, there is no need to consult in walkthroughs!!
We are all here, totally available for any hint/tip…..
I’m stuck in Chapter 3 and I LOVE IT!!!
Don’t you think it’s great to be stuck in a game you already played and finished? That just goes to say games with wide areas, more inventory objects and various puzzles have more “replayability”.

Hey peoples
Been out of the playthrough for a little while, since my husband left the country with my game…
But now I´m back, and stuck in chapter 3. I´m missing the water ingredient for the soup, I´m assuming it´s the frog.
A very gentle nudge would be appreciated, but please don´t give it all away…

Gentle nudge: you have to get to the other side, where the frog is
Not-so gentle nudge: a bow will help with that (though, I’m also stuck here, I obviously missed some object…

Yeah I expected an army when I first heard of the Asgil. I wish they had more idle animations in the background. Still though, the world is very unique and cool.

For the arrow you need to combine 2 objects and one of them has to be shaped into the arrowhead first
Yeah. One of those utterly logical puzzels I cannot do without a WT.
Sorry Sefir, I know I can ask hints here, but I would have to quit and wait for an answer while I’m immersed in the game world.

I’m now stuck after schlepping back and forth and repeatedly moving heaven and earth—well, [spoiler]earth anyway—to get to a bucket. Which has a hole in it. Dear Liza. [/spoiler]
Intriguingly, the Asgil seem to be very heavy sleepers. Maybe Sadwicks’ spit has a sedative effect?
I don’t even know why I need a bucket. Dear Liza.

Have started spinning the room? There is a position that will have the window next to the bucket
Don’t worry about the hole, the bucket is not for water
