4. Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Im lost and I cant find anything else to do.

A: One of the main flaws with this game is you have to 
wander around a lot. When you get stuck like that just 
keeping going to every room and looking at everything 
until and event happens.

Q: Why are some of the pictures blank/deleted?

A: Two scenes are censored from the game. The Red 
Riding Hood, and the illusion girl scenes. The reason 
being is both the characters are or are assumed to be 
under age. Without the pictures, its hard to get by 
these points without randomly clicking on the screen. 
If you want to, theres a patch around on the internet 
that restores all the cut scenes.
