Elodea Exploration Party: Saturday May 11th

[janaba]

This is very cool, Annabelle ... I've taken pictures of everything of course, of this note and the stones and wondered already if and where we might need them, so, just in case I took those shots and when it was so easy to just link to Schatzkammern I didn't think of the rest anymore ... Yes I've seen the NOSW letters on the ground but I had no idea what to make of it ... Then in the Schatzkammer of Elodea's Schatzkammern I've seen this Tunnelgang linking place too, but then I didn't suspect anything anymore lol ...

Of course, I just immediately applied the note hint to that linking room et voilà ... awesome and familiar view ... now we know what those peeps in the key room have been stumbled upon while sitting there and walking and working in those tunnels and unknowingly doing their job year after year ... Very nice, thanks ...

As of the other stuff, I've seen some of this of course also, and I've been wondering about the deceiving cloth, which belongs to Schatzkammern, but when you don't know it and wonder how to get there as you're are looking for the last one, which was very difficult to find, as for the correct doors, then jumping up sth and finding the way to the cloth, then jumping down and being glad to have a door knob to leave again ... That was a journey ... O_o ... haha ... Yeah, great to now know one of the last secrets for now ...

One of the strengths of Dulcamara's ages... she really tied the story to fit really well her universe or the other way around

Glad to know you appreciated my Nth advice/tip/hint/info

I did too, thanks, I'd been wondering what all those letters and clues were for. Now I know!

I finally got around to revisiting the mysterious key rooms in Unterwelt and Tunnelgang. Thanks to the generous hints given here, I found where I went wrong and got them to respond to me. I can now say that I have finished all the parts of this wonderful age of Elodea.

Clues in Elodeas applied to Unterwelt...

Show Spoiler

In the main age of Elodeas, I saw the 13 numbers in the key room... zero through twelve with some colored red. I tried to match those with the 12 numbers in the Unterwelt key room. I saw that if I started counting with zero, the red numbers from Elodeas matched up with the red crystals in Unterwelt. That turned out to be a misdirection. Start counting with the number 1 and ignore the colors altogether. Also ignore the fact that the numbers shown in the ELodeas key room started with zero. With that I got the key room to respond.

Clues in Tunnelgang applied to Tunnelgang...

Show Spoiler

I found the piece of discarded paper with the compass directions. The view I had of that note only seemed to have 3 clear directions listed. The fourth mark looked like a smear or scribble rather than the direction "N". It could just have easily been another "W" partially obscured. Once I interpreted it as four distinct directions, I got the key room to respond.

I had no trouble entering the final room in Schatzkamen without any clues from the other areas.

Question regarding the area of cloth #5 in Tunnelgang...
Have I missed a button or other mechanism to exit back to the upper level or does that area force you back to the lower level? If we must resume our quest for cloth #6 from the lower level, that would seem to be a slightly jarring interrupt in the path since cloth #6 is on the upper level just past the entrance to the cloth #5 area. The only way to resolve this interrupt would be to seek cloth #6 before cloth #5 (not that the order really matters).

I'll say again that I thoroughly enjoyed all the parts of Elodea and highly recommend them to others.

For me to find cloth #5 was actually quite difficult as I've been irritated by the 'deceiving cloth' haha ... You're lucky btw that I've taken pictures of all the cloths and the way to them otherwise I couldn't remember all of this anymore lol ... So, as for myself I've been collecting cloth #6 (as my 2nd one lol) before #5, which I found as the 7th lol ... Tunnelgang wasn't very easy, so I first had been running around for orientation and getting an inner picture of the whole, and on that way I grabbed everything interesting I came across ...

So, if you'd like to keep and follow the implemented sequence

Show Spoiler

yes, there is no button back outside in the upper level and you have to jump back down to use the exit button and one is forced to resume the quest from there up again lol ...

And as of the Unterwelt key quest

Show Spoiler

one has to ignore that number zero, then the colors are correct ... Only the red numbers are needed and give actually the correct count/numbers needed ...

I'm embarrassed to admit that despite having got all the Unterwelt cloths and moved on to the other ages, I've not found the key room!

I'm going through it all once again but it's so big and, as there are so many places it could be, it could take me years! So if you can given me a bit of a hint, I'd appreciate it!

I haven't got all the Schatzkammern cloths yet but I'll struggle on with this a while longer before asking for help

Just explore a bit around

Show Spoiler

and on the level of the church ... you'll see a familiar pattern in the distance ...

[Acorn]

Thanks janaba! Oh, how annoying, I really should have found that myself! Knowing which floor to look on was a great help. I managed to walk through a wall by accident and was in some sort of parallel plane where walls were transparent. So I saw where I needed to get to, even though I was in the wrong Dimension to get there!

I made it in the end, though, and pressed the right crystals. Thanks to dtierce for making the errors so I didn't have to!

I really enjoy the new feature on Deep Island which is a new Elodea book next to Oolbahnneea book which contain the direct links to the different worlds (main island, Unterwelt, Tunnelgang, & Schatzkammern)

Would it be possible to port this to offline with Drizzle?
