Lost in the City Game Walkthrough

GENERAL TIPS

• There are 2 modes you can choose to play in this game: Classic Mode and Light Mode.


• In Classic Mode you will be able to obtain a higher score but the timer will be enabled.


• In Light Mode you will be able to play without having to worry about a timer. Take your time and enjoy the game; however, you will not be able to obtain high scores like you would in Classic Mode. Beyond bragging rights, a higher score also allows you to buy items from the ’secret store’ in the game, a fun little extra that the game has.


• You can zoom into all areas of the scene by right–clicking your mouse anywhere on the scene. The magnifying glass will automatically show up in the area to which your cursor is pointing. If you want to get rid of the magnifying glass, you can right–click again.


• You can also click on the magnifying glass icon that is in the lower right side of the scene and it will enable the magnifying glass, either method will work. This tool will be very useful in helping you locate hard to see items.


• If you do not want to read the text that pops up in the middle of the screen, you can click the word "next" to get rid of it, but you don’t have to. You can also click anywhere on the scene and the text will disappear. I found it easier to click anywhere in the scene instead of clicking precisely on the word "next".


• You can look at any of the messages that have been shown on the screen by clicking on the message icon that is on the lower right side of the page. It can be useful to read these messages since some of them give you clues for upcoming puzzles.


• The money that you earn throughout the game will allow you to buy ’secrets’ from the store. Go to the main menu and click on the word "secrets" to access that location. This is a fun little section in which you can buy extra mini–games that do not appear in the game. You can also purchase sketches and other things.


• The game has lots of replay value since the objects move around each time you play. Even the key items in the game will not always be in the same location. Keep this in mind when following the walkthrough since there are so many random solutions.


• Once you’ve completed the game you can go back and replay any level you wish. Simply go back to the main menu and select "Choose Levels." It will let you play any of the levels in the game.


• You can replay a level before you’ve completed it. Click on the menu and select "Replay Level." The game will take you back to the beginning of the level you’re currently in. Keep in mind that when you replay a level the objects will not be in the same place. Once you’ve completed a level you will not be able to access it again until after you’ve finished the entire game.


• Once in a while you will be asked to complete a graphical task. This means that you will have to look for items in a scene by looking at a photograph. Graphical tasks are always in the upper right side of the screen.


• At the end of each chapter you will be asked to look for your next location on a map. The only way to know where you have to go is by reading the clue underneath the map.
