I tried to solve a certain puzzle in this german adventure a gazillion times, and frustrated, looked into the code. I think it may be a bug...
There is a location called "See" (lake), where a boat (german: boot) seems to be hidden. Can anyone of you basic experts tell me what prerequisites are necessary to actually find that damn thing, and how to use it? As far as I read the program, there must be either a floating piece of wood (german "holz") or a beercan (german "bierdose") in or near the See location, which has a 6-digit code on it (german: "Zahl"), beginning with a 7.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This a weird adventure game because allmost all the puzzles and objects seem useless. You can go straight to the end location without using any object. The only problem is that you can't enter the code for some reason. I solved the game by first collecting all the objects (messer, schauffel,kästchen, schlüssel, wecker, bierdose and holz) and then go to the last location to enter the startcode and the game ended.
As you may have noticed the löffel isn't mentioned above because you need this one to find the boat. Don't ask why but to find the boat you have to enter WERFE LÖFFEL. You will find the holz and bierdose further on but I didn't find any use for them. The only other object I found usefull was the spade (schaufel) but then again the things you can find with it seem useless as well.
I didn't write a solution because the one thing I couldn't find was the location where you can find the startcode. When you look in the programmcode it seems to be written somewhere but unfortunately I couldn't find it.

Yeah, it seems to be a rather pointless game. As far as I saw it, only the key was important, to open the underground door. I think the code is written on either the piece of wood, or on the beercan.
By a strange coincidence, I did find the boat after dropping the spoon, but I didn't find any way of using it. I'm not going to bother writing a solution for this one either, I think. It's really one dumb game. Shame. It did look pretty promising when I started playing...
