PuppetShow: Mystery of Joyville Walkthrough

General Tips

• All scenes will have an area in which a single sparkle appears or several sparkles appear.




• A single sparkle indicates an interactive area in the game. This area may allow you to move to a different scene or exit out of a scene. It can also indicate an area that you need to investigate further.




• Several sparkles in a cluster indicate a Hidden Object scene. These scenes contain inventory items needed to complete your journey.




• Certain Hidden Object scenes will require that you click on a part of the scene to uncover a hidden area. They can be items like a piece of cloth that needs to be removed or a cabinet that needs to be opened. A hand icon will appear over such areas in the game.




• When the cursor turns into a magnifying glass it means you can zoom in to an area in the scene. You can sometimes find inventory items in these areas. In other instances a magnifying glass will allow you to read clues that will help you in the game or they can open up a mini-game.




• If a door is open you can travel to that location by clicking on the area in which your cursor turns into a globe icon.




• When your cursor changes into a hand icon you should click on that area to interact with it. The hand icon allows you to pick up inventory items or explore certain areas.

Hints

• If you can’t find an item in one of the Hidden Object scenes you can use a hint to locate an item.




• The hint button is located in the lower left corner of a Hidden Object scene.




• When you use a hint, a circle will appear around a random item from your list.




• You can only use the hints for the Hidden Object scenes. The hint button will not appear in other scenes, it will be replaced by the tools or skip button instead.




• You have unlimited hints in the game but you have to wait 60 seconds in between each use.

Inventory/ Tools

• You will find1 inventory item in each Hidden Object scene. You will not know which item goes into inventory until all the items have been cleared from the list.




• You can also find inventory items in the areas which have a magnifying glass icon.




• The inventory items will go into the tools tab in the lower left corner.




• Click on the tools button in the lower left to see all available items. If your inventory is full, use the arrows on each end of the Tools section to scroll through your items.




• To use an item begin by clicking on the tools button and selecting an inventory item. Drag the item you want to use to the appropriate area and click on it to make it stick.

Mini-games

• You can skip a mini-game once the skip button is full. The skip button only appears in the mini-game sections and it is located in the lower left corner.




• The instructions for the mini-game only appear at the beginning. After that there is no way to access the instructions once the game has started.




• If you need to see the instructions for a mini-game again, exit out of it. Once you return to the game the instructions will appear. This action also resets the puzzle.
