    What a cool little game! Loved that you can download it to play as a flash file. Made it in 23 minutes. Bit different to the norm... great for a change.

    For the second poster;

    Check the ant queen's podium for the ID card.

    Done 25 minutes. Couldn't figure out the end or else sooner. You can drag things down on the right to look at them.

    Where's the queen ants podium?

    18 minutes, on the dot! Love the music, and the puzzle isn't too difficult either. I love the idea behind it - very original!

    Hints:

    For the chamber of secrets you put the crystal ball (found underneath the queen's chamber) in the hole.

    The queen ant's podium is in the queen's chamber. You need to find a rune to gain access to it.

    Hope that helps! ;)

    21min 7s ^__^

    the chamber of secrets is just that... it tells you the secret of the game =)

    yeah, didn't really like the pixel hunt.. but fortunately, it is not a real pixel hunt... only things that stick out (ie. mushrooms + rocks) have a chance of being clickable. And when it's clickable, your mouse turns into a hand and it says something about what it is~

    very cute game, not too difficult, only wish it had been a little longer! someone: magic mushrooms!
    You use the secret chamber by revolving the wheel to show what object you have, you then rotate the white wheel until a picture appears in the middle which will tell you what to do with said object
