love the game so far, though my brain isn't very wrinkly and i have had to read through this whole discussion to figure a lot out lol. i actually did get to the tower with limited clues thanks to the library but i wanted to go back and pick through more lore and letters.

i'm stuck trying to access med's letters? if she has any, i'm not sure? same with milmora ¿ƃuᴉɥʇǝɯos ƃuᴉpuɐʇsɹǝpunsᴉɯ ᴉ ɯɐ 'ʞɹoʍ ʇ,upᴉp ʇᴉ ʇnq ,,ǝloɹǝɥ,, pɹoʍ ǝɥʇ ƃuᴉsn 'sɹɐllᴉd ǝsɹoɥɐǝs ǝɥʇ uo pǝᴉɹʇ ᴉ os 'sǝsɹoɥɐǝs sǝsn ǝɥs ʍouʞ ᴉ puɐ 'sɹǝʇʇǝl s,lǝq puɐ s,ɐɹɐ ʇno pǝɹnƃᴉɟ ᴉ

sorry to bother again, but i couldn't find the 9th kaska. So far i found 3 in the garden, 2 in the entrance, 2 in the library and 1 in the chambers. Is there an area I forgot to look?

Developer

there should be 3 in the library. if you can't find it, let me know - could be a bug?

It's no bug, I was just being silly again! Back when I left my review, i ended up brute-forcing the puzzle, because i couldn't find the ip and i wanted to get to the ending.
So now i reloaded the game, and took another look, just in case there was abug. Turns out I had solved all the Kaskas, including the Ip one, i just missed that one of the 3 had the ip in it and then must have miscounted.
I blame the massive heatwave! And also thank you for making such an awesome game, i had so much fun with it

Figured it out!

okay so I'm stuck on meddy's puzzle. I've figured out the anagram or at least I think I did and so I tried saying it to the seahorse statues but nothing happens. I've unlocked all the jelly fish letters already and haven't gotten to Ara or sinny yet,but I could definitely use some help with Medcorel's puzzle. For the anagram I got "colderme".

double check you're using her whole name

what's her favorite animal

Her favorite animal is the seahorse and I think I'm using her whole name do I have to add the princess part as well. I just used Medcorel and that's how I got Colderme

name is right use it where there are sea horses

Developer

sounds like you have done everything correctly, and this should have worked, which leads me to believe this might be a bug. try saving and reloading, and if that doesn't work, you can wait until i patch this out or you can reset your game. Sorry, this is awful! It's a new error I haven't heard of yet so I'm going to have to do some investigating.

i think im dense i've tried every single name and I can't access the chambers, i've reread the first note and I'm not sure what i'm missing

edit: got into the chambers (I wasn't using her full name) but now I'm not sure on how to reach the garden

edit 2: I got it, love wins

edit 3:im down to just two letters but only one shell, very confused

Final edit: just missed one to screenshot oopsie

i finished the story already but I was just wondering ¿sɐʍ ˥ sᴉ ɹǝʇʇǝl pɹƐ ǝɥʇ ʇɐɥʇ slɐǝʌǝɹ ʇɐɥʇ ǝʇou ǝɥʇ ǝɹǝɥʍ
i couldnt seem to find it, but i did the puzzle by lol ʎɹɐɹqᴉl ǝɥʇ uᴉ ʞooq ɐ ƃuᴉsn uoᴉʇɐuᴉɯᴉlǝ ɟo ssǝɔoɹd

its possible this is due to a missing shell that doesn't load from a save file. You are the second person to report they can only find 8 shells. just in case, I may create a mini map so folks can check for the location of all shells, jellyfish, and so on.

Hi, I don't understand how to get note-taking tool/notebook before start of the game 

She just wants you to write notes so you can have everything in one place. For example, I found writing the Corel Alphabet (something you'll find later on) to be helpful. That way I don't have to go back for everything that I find. Not only are you an anthropologist in the game, but you should be writing notes on paper or on a tablet, so you can be an anthropologist in real life.

Hope that helps!

Ty fo explaining!!! :)

I know the 9th kaska I need is in the Garden, near the entrance, but there is no clue next to it and I don't have any spare clues in the same room. It is the only thing preventing me from entering the tower so if I could get a hint, that would be gr8 ty!!

Whoops I figured out the clue is in a different room, haha.

i'm stuck on how to open the shell in the garden that says "ɹǝqɯnls sɹǝʇsᴉs ʎɯ ǝlᴉɥʍ uǝdo ǝɹɐ sǝʎǝ ǝsoɥʍ", any hint? tyy
