Chapter 1

John

After getting out of bed, go to the bathroom and shower. Grab the razor from near to the sink, then use the shaving can (in the shelves) with the razor to shave. Go back out to your bedroom and use the wardrobe to get changed. Now leave your bedroom. Walk along the landing and you will answer a phone call from Jimmy. Enter the next room, which belongs to your mom. Search the purse to get her credit card. Walk left and search the bed to find the car keys. Leave the room and go downstairs.

Go through the door to the right of the front door to find the kitchen. Talk to Maria, then search the fridge to get a sandwich. Leave the kitchen and continue down the hall and into the office. Look at book on the table against the wall; you will remember your mom's birthday is December 12 (12-12). Leave the office, and go out through the front door of the house. Use the car, selecting the car keys in your inventory. After the vision, walk away from the house.

Use the ATM, inserting your mom's credit card. Enter the PIN as 1212, then look at the balance and withdraw some money MONEY IT'S ALL I WANT. Read the newspaper, then give your sandwich to the dog so you can enter the park. Talk to the lady on the right, then follow the path to the right. Look at the cartons on the bench to the left. Now talk to the hotdog vendor and give him some money. Choose one of these options:

  • Buy 1 hotdog
  • Buy 3 hotdogs GLUTTONY

Either way you will end up with some coins. Follow the path to the right to reach a playground. Search behind the slide here to find the little girl, who will give you a flower before returning to her mother. Go back to the left and talk to Lucia, giving her the flower. Head back towards the park entrance and talk to the lady and her daughter. Grab the packet of cigarettes from the park bench, then return home.

Talk to Jimmy, and you will end up back inside. Go upstairs, then up to Maria's room. Look at the teddy on her bed. After Maria enters her bathroom, examine the locked trunk and the snake. Now head back outside and walk towards the town.

Enter the pharmacy, which is now open. Look at the mouse and offer the kid your money to get the rat. Talk to the pharmacist, who can't give you medicine without a prescription. Put a coin in the donation box on the bench to receive a free pen. Head back outside and go home again. Go inside and enter the office. Use your pen on the prescription pad on the coffee table, and you will end up with a prescription. Take this back to the pharmacy and give it to the pharmacist to get some drops. Return home once more and go up to Maria's room. Look at the cup of tea next to her bed and use the drops on it (select either amount). After Maria falls asleep, examine her. Choose one of these options:

  • Take key carefully
  • Take key and touch Maria LUST

Give the mouse to the snake, and you will get a medallion. Use the key on the locked trunk and you will get a black light bulb. Go downstairs and enter the office. Examine the desk, and insert the black light bulb here. Look at the clocks on the wall to see the times are "03", "666-1616" and "09". Examine the floor rug and you will move it to reveal a trap door - you don't know the code to open it yet.

Leave the house and walk to the park. Use the telephone here, inserting a coin and dialing the number 666-1616. You will hear the message "15 Paris". Return home again.

Downstairs, enter the living room at the end of the hall. Talk to your mom and give her the packet of cigarettes so that she leaves the room. Grab a candle from the dining table, then light it using the fireplace. Now head back to the office. Examine the trap door and open it with the code based on the three numbers and 3 cities: 031509. Go down through the trapdoor (you can only do this if you have the lit candle).

As you walk along the dark passage, light the torches with your candle. Once you reach the door, open it using the medallion. In the next room, examine the book and you will take some poison.

Back in your mom's bedroom, talk to your mom. Go to her purse to get her pills. Go back to your mom and give her one of these items:

  • Pills
  • Poison GREED

You will now see several scenes. Once you are talking with Ocaso, choose either option and you will head upstairs. Walk right along the landing LIMBO. Talk to Alba, then talk to Ocaso.
