M. Night’s Site part II

As promised, here are some additional hints for opening doors in the haunted house found in M. Night Shyamalan’s official web site.  Use your arrow keys to move around or click the little white dots on the red line at the bottom of the page to jump to particular areas in the house. You need to have Flash loaded to view the site correctly.

From the first floor, click the correct white dot on the red line at the bottom of the screen to get to the second floor. Here’s how I opened the doors to the rooms on the second floor. When you open the doors, click on items in the rooms to see notes from M. Night about his movies, the actors, etc. For each room, click the raven to exit.

  • Lounge: On the bookcase to the left, tilt the book over on the fourth shelf down.
  • Study: Click the key on the floor and drag it to the key hole in the door.
  • Attic: Click the attic door in the ceiling. This was still being built when I visited the site.

M. Night’s Site

Speaking of M. Night Shyamalan, click here to view his official web site.  Not surprisingly, it has a haunted house theme. Use your arrow keys to move around or click the little white dots on the red line at the bottom of the page to jump to particular areas in the house. You can click on certain items for additional information (Hint: Look for the little puffs of smoke). You need to have Flash loaded to view the site correctly.

On the first floor, click white dots on the red line to view doors for certain M. Night movie titles. When you open the doors, you can click on items in the rooms to see notes about the movies from M. Night. Here’s how I opened the doors. For each room, click the raven to ext.

  • Sixth Sense room: Click the dial on the thermostat on the wall and drag the dial all the way to the left.
  • Signs: Click the glass of water on the table and drag it to the left to tip the glass and spill the water.
  • Unbreakable: Click the shard of glass on the table and place it in the correct spot in the broken mirror .
  • Lady in the Water: Click the five designs on the wallpaper to open the door. There are three designs to the left of the door and two to the right.
  • The Village: Click the handle of the paint brush in the bucket of the red paint. Drag the brush over to the door and paint a red mark on the door to open it.
  • The Happening: Click the floor vase on the left and drag it over to the puddle so water dripping down can water the plant.

I will post some hints for opening the doors on the second floor in a later posting.

    Salt Movie Game: Day X Exists – Mission 9

    If you have been playing the Day X Exists game that goes with the movie Salt, here are some tips to help you with playing the game portion of Mission 9: Shootout.  Note: This posting is not about the mission report cluecode.

    Please leave me a comment if these tips helped you. Thanks!

    There are three levels to the game:

    • Level 1 has three operatives. The one in the middle appears to be the sharpest shot, so you might want to take him out first.
    • Level 2 has five operatives. The one way in the back is the toughest.
    • Level 3 has six operatives. The one in the upper right is the most difficult.

    Some general tips:

    • You start with five bars of energy. When you have one bar left, you will hear your heart beating. When no bars are left, it beats faster and louder. If you get hit the sixth time, the game ends.
    • Wait for an operative to shoot, then press the space bar to take a peak.
    • Remember to periodically press your space bar to take cover and to reload.
    • If you hit an operative in the body, it takes three shots to kill him; however, if you get a head shot, you can take him out in one shot.
    • There is no time limit, so don’t rush. Take your time and aim.
    • Body shots are 250 points and head shots are 500.  But the more operatives you can shoot in the head in a row, the more points you can accumulate.

    After playing a few times, I was eventually able to get every operative in the game in one shot each and scored 52,500 points.  Have you figured out how to score more?
