treasure of big totem 17
Treasure of big totem 17 is the final chapter in Federico Rutenberg's big totem point and click adventures.
There's a fruit somewhere between the blond girl and the old man. Give it to the though guy the plant the seed in the bottom left corner of the screeen...
I've found a hand print near the bottom of the screen in the water below the blond girl and a comment around 8 legged container in dark part of water below old man
for the first hand you have to get the fish(piece of branch+hairnet). for the second hand you have to click the bird, collect the feather and give them to the guy on the right side. klick on the hand, it tells you what to do. paper is in the bag on the left side. the girl next to the guy knows the text. klick on th birds and then on the right word with the paper. give paper to the hand. get the fruit from the old guy. give it to the one on the right side and give the seed to the hand. klick on the big branch and get the spiderweb from the left side. put the spiderweb on the branch klick on the fish sceletton and get the spider. give it to the hand. don't really remember wether there was another hand or not. after that get the black things on the stones in the middle in the right order. the paper in the water tells you the right order and take them away again. you get to another scene and now i'm stuck can't find the helmet
Think the game must have been buggy earlier as was getting things at earlier points in the game when didn't need them before. Now things are appearing at right time and have finally got the seed. Would recommend people giving it another go if they gave up earlier like i did.
spearhead is in water. use to cut off cane and combine. sign can be used as shield. Use rock and bread for breadcrumbs. Totally stuck now. Anyone else still playing?
click on guy with smelly socks. have to give him three root veggies. get little plant from scene furthest left (by the water), go to scene with the ball and get one from roof and by tree. Feed Otto.
football is the remote. Read the itinery on the tree. 11.30am is the top pentagon above the white square, 2pm the one to the right etc (think clock face). Place the symbols around the ball and press middle button. Have to get off island. Bit of disappointing end for all that work. Anyone got the other ending?
I have never had to use so many player hints and clues to finish an escape game. Plus it froze near the end and I had to start all over. Thank you to the folks here and EscapeGames24 that helped me finish this frustrating game!
I don't know why we always complain about or comment on Minoto making no sense. This series never makes sense and they aren't nearly as entertaining as Minoto's.
Why is everybody so negative? I found it a challenging nice game. Needed a couple of hints, but did it most of all by myself and the hints in the game.
I also found two ending: '<'For the first end you have to enter the cave first and then blow up the island, for the second end you have to blow up the island before entering the cave (by putting the right figures on the ball)'>'
So I got my wish -- a longer one. Stupid finale (aliens!!??) and anti-climactic ending(s) but apart from some pixel-hunting probably fair enough.
Many things hard to see: hair net, feathers, helmet, spearhead, bat. Many things appear in a place previously searched: note paper, fruit, spider, etc. Crashed twice requiring restart.
In my opinion these tricks and issues make it hard without adding to the interest. Sorry, but not my favorite series.
Began to think this series would never end. Still not sure who all the "heroes" in it are.
Has two big problems: Game window too small and the cursor color difference (yellow/white) too subtle. Nothing to do about cursor but I make the window bigger by hitting ctrl-+ in Firefox.
Still, my thanks to Esklavos for a very enjoyable run.
Any hints?
ReplyDeleteI've got the stick, the paper and pencil and a hand sticking out of the water. no idea what to do next. this seems harder than usual.
ReplyDeleteActually ignore that, this game is far too rubbish to continue playing. No where near as good as the others in the series.
ReplyDeleteis that cos you can't do it? I want to finish it but am stuck.
ReplyDeleteBart can you help? I'm just sat here trying to see when the arrow changes colour. I've got as far as per second post.
ReplyDeleteThere's a fruit somewhere between the blond girl and the old man. Give it to the though guy the plant the seed in the bottom left corner of the screeen...
ReplyDelete*then plant the seed
ReplyDeletecan't find the fruit. is it in the water?
ReplyDeleteyeah, it's very hard to find it, you have to hunt the pixel...
ReplyDeleteI've found a hand print near the bottom of the screen in the water below the blond girl and a comment around 8 legged container in dark part of water below old man
ReplyDeletedo i have to use the stick or something to get the fruit? Still can't find it. Will be the first time I've ever given up on one of these games :-(
ReplyDeleteThis is awful - first time Ive ever given up on one of these also. :(
ReplyDeleteFinally out but just feel annoyed with the game.
ReplyDeleteby randomly clicking on the blonde girl i got a hairnet. attached it to the twig and caught the fish... back to randomly clicking
ReplyDeleteUse ctrl+mouse wheel to expand the game. It can help your eyes less tired...
ReplyDeletefor the first hand you have to get the fish(piece of branch+hairnet).
ReplyDeletefor the second hand you have to click the bird, collect the feather and give them to the guy on the right side. klick on the hand, it tells you what to do. paper is in the bag on the left side. the girl next to the guy knows the text. klick on th birds and then on the right word with the paper. give paper to the hand.
get the fruit from the old guy. give it to the one on the right side and give the seed to the hand.
klick on the big branch and get the spiderweb from the left side. put the spiderweb on the branch klick on the fish sceletton and get the spider. give it to the hand. don't really remember wether there was another hand or not.
after that get the black things on the stones in the middle in the right order. the paper in the water tells you the right order and take them away again.
you get to another scene and now i'm stuck can't find the helmet
For the helmet look in the top right in the tree.
ReplyDeleteI finished it. So exhausted...
ReplyDeleteThink the game must have been buggy earlier as was getting things at earlier points in the game when didn't need them before. Now things are appearing at right time and have finally got the seed. Would recommend people giving it another go if they gave up earlier like i did.
ReplyDeletedon't get the spider web thing. Where do I hang it. have clicked on branches and it doesn't work
ReplyDeleteYes, I finally finished the game. But I don't know how to make a second end.
ReplyDeleteHave to put them on in the order as per sign and then take them off in correct order as per sign.
ReplyDeleteok got the helmet. what re the spear and armour. got a rock-like thing but don't know what to do with it.
ReplyDeletespearhead is in water. use to cut off cane and combine. sign can be used as shield. Use rock and bread for breadcrumbs. Totally stuck now. Anyone else still playing?
ReplyDeleteput breadcrumbs in water. catch fish.
ReplyDeleteGet paper get stick, combine.
ReplyDeletemove the bat around the room using the mechanic arms. difficult timing. with blow pipe - middle button, bat, bottom button, move rock, top button.
click on guy with smelly socks. have to give him three root veggies. get little plant from scene furthest left (by the water), go to scene with the ball and get one from roof and by tree. Feed Otto.
ReplyDeleteclick back on the box on the metal part of the glass contraption with the sock. Click on white spot below the box and it says to get remote.
ReplyDeletefootball is the remote. Read the itinery on the tree. 11.30am is the top pentagon above the white square, 2pm the one to the right etc (think clock face). Place the symbols around the ball and press middle button. Have to get off island. Bit of disappointing end for all that work. Anyone got the other ending?
ReplyDeleteThis is just a glorified pixel hunt...not for me...next game please.
ReplyDeleteIT GLITCHED AT THE END!

how do i get the sign off to use it for the shield?
ReplyDelete@ Amy: Use the rock to remove the sign.
ReplyDeleteA little frustrated with this one. It got stuck when I got back out of the cave and wouldn't let me do anything. Having to start over now :(
Have to say, I'm disappointed they saved the Ginger and not the kitten.
ReplyDeletefinish, i got it
ReplyDeletei need help with the second end.. in the cave
ReplyDeletefinally, get both ends
ReplyDeleteSo I got my wish -- a longer one. Stupid finale (aliens!!??) and anti-climactic ending(s) but apart from some pixel-hunting probably fair enough.
ReplyDeleteMany things hard to see: hair net, feathers, helmet, spearhead, bat. Many things appear in a place previously searched: note paper, fruit, spider, etc. Crashed twice requiring restart.

Thanks for all the hints. I really needed those this time...
ReplyDeleteThe 2 endings thing was so NOT interesting nor fun...
Began to think this series would never end. Still not sure who all the "heroes" in it are.
ReplyDeleteHas two big problems: Game window too small and the cursor color difference (yellow/white) too subtle. Nothing to do about cursor but I make the window bigger by hitting ctrl-+ in Firefox.
Still, my thanks to Esklavos for a very enjoyable run.
All that work for a poor reward and not enough difference between the 2 endings to be worth the pixel hunt, Disappointing.
ReplyDeleteCan't get the melody for the birds....i've tried every combo....including what the girl says...keep getting "that's not the melody".
ReplyDelete@midge, did you just click the birds or did you write the melody down?
ReplyDeleteHelp!!I dont know where to put the spider web!! its not working!
