Help needed - Billy Barker Invsetigates

I've been playing this off and on for just over a year (since 6th March 2023!). I think I'm getting to the end of it, but I can't get rid of the guards in the security office. I've used the boomerang to distract the guard but he keeps on capturing me when I enter the security office. I did think I c...

Re: VICE C64 multi part tape game

I can usually tell fairly quickly whether I will like a game. With Merlin, for example, the puzzles at the start are fairly straight forward, use Object A to get Object B which will help with problem C. You find clothing which you can search for another item; wearing the clothing provides the soluti...

Re: VICE C64 multi part tape game

Found this on a Lemon64 forum: if the game only supports saving to tape and not disk, then you need to use tape image. Alt+T to attach tape image, then enter filename and click "Create Image". Next attach the new TAP image and use File > Datassette control > Record to record the data to the image wh...

VICE C64 multi part tape game

I'm playing Merlin from Adventure Workshop using the VICE C64 emulator. I have got to a stage in the game where it says 'You must now save your position and load part two of Merlin.' It then prompts me for 'Disc or Tape?'. I type in Tape as I am using a T64 image. It then says 'Type in Filename.'; I...

Re: Help on C64 version of Davy Jones Locker

Thank you very much Strident. I had looked there earlier, trying everything I could think of (including 'SEARCH WASTE', 'SEARCH BIN', 'EXAMINE WASTE', 'EXAMINE BIN', 'DIG WASTE', 'DIG BIN'). Armed with your response I went back and carried on trying. It was 'SEARCH METAL' or 'EXAMINE METAL' that wor...

Help on C64 version of Davy Jones Locker

I've been playing this game from River Software for the last 2 months. My current score is 82 so I think I am coming to the end; however I am now completely stuck. I have referred to the hints and solution available here on CASA, but that seems to be for the Spectrum version which does not correspon...

C64 Mountain Valley

Having only played Spectrum adventures and the Infocom games, I recently purchased C64forever in order to play Empire of Karn, which was not available for the Spectrum. Having finished the game (quite disappointing BTW), I have been looking for other adventures for the C64, and I came across a revie...
