From what I can recall there are actually 3 - did you eventually get the right one kabouter? If not the hotspot is more over to the right of the scene. 

Yes, I got the correct hotspot. I’m now in Le Mans, looking for leads on the highwayman.

The only thing that ever attracted me to Touche in the 1st place was what I saw as the very lovely art-work/graphics of the game & I’m now further endeared to it by having the chance to actually play it - despite having a lot of locations & characters looking exactly the same somehow it’s very amusing! Yes. there’s a lot of repetitive dialogue but I’ve played so many games where the game mechanics have dictated the same so no problem here! But the main thing is that I’ve got so hooked on the story & wondering where it’s going & loving it so far!   

Okay! I’ve finally reached Le Havre, and after re-reading the thread I realised that some of you were giving me clues that I missed somehow.  Thank you.

I’m noticing after reading through the hints that there is more than one way to do some puzzles such as putting the blank paper in the sunlight instead of the candle and putting the souvenir on the anvil rather than smashing it with a hammer.  Always a welcome in adventure games!

I feel like I’m getting stuck on such simple things but I’m managing to solve the more silly puzzles such as painting the flowers purple.  I guess I just expect ridiculous inventory-based puzzles from these 90’s adventures. 

Like some others, I didn’t work out climbing the tree three times and eventually resorted to a walkthrough… which is a shame as I’m usually the type to try things over and over again.  Like in Broken Age attempting to walk up the whipped cream hill over and over again and listening to the knitted toys exclaim “some people never learn” every time. 

Nice stuff about the alternate solutions, always good to see.

diego, we are starting the next part today, no? I want to see what heppens (and maybe kick some english butt?)

allright! im a terrible slowpoke but im getting things done in st quentin now. Sliiiiight disappointment with the amount of asset recycling they do, but they also make jokes about it, so its fun. Just met the cardinal, and the plot is getting interesting. The first puzzle to annoy me was: dropping the melon in the river to get the other soldiers to rescue it….. seriously????
Otherwise the puzzles have been pretty good and fun.

We have 4 more players that are active in this thread (from the beginning), that haven’t reached Le Havre yet! I won’t be popular for doing this, but I’m prolonging the deadline for the third part until Wednesday 23 March and that’s final!!! Once again, sorry to everyone who are going by the original schedule, and I promise there won’t be any more delays… you can just, you know, watch The Three Musketeers or something in the meantime.

You’re too lenient. How will the children ever learn to complete their homework on time if you keep letting them off the hook? I say punish, PUNISH! Stocks & gallows! To the guillotine, friends!

does the inventory system make anyone else nervous that its going to bug out and put me in a dead end?? 
iv somehow ended up with two melons now when im pretty sure i should have 0. And everything is layered on top of other things, super not convenient.
