Kyp Is it just for me or is anybody else having a big graphic problem for the puzzle named : The 3rd key of Thoth ?
I don't know if the problem come from my computer (so I'll never be able to complete this game ) or if I need to do something else before. Could someone help me, please ?

The Fool's Daughter First off, this is an amazing game! k:

Many years ago, (I think I was in elementary or middle school at the time) my family owned an old mac. One Saturday afternoon while playing around on the computer I found this game "The Fools Errand". I asked my dad when we had got it, yet he had no idea how it had came to be on the computer. With interest I opened the game up and started exploring. Although I had no concept of how the game worked or what the objective was, I did get the general idea of what was goign on (yes, even at such a young age.) Often times, the puzzles were too difficult for me alone, but I found help in my older cousins and eventually my own family. Unfortunately we never solved the whole game due to getting a new computer. It is with great pleasure I've found the game to download again and give it another try. I love the game then, and love the game now. It is sad that more people don't know about this game. With such a timeless storyline and ever challenging puzzles, its a shame more modern games don't model themselves after it. However, I look forward to the next installment, and of course, have pre-ordered the game!

Thanks for lending your ear! Cheers to the Fool!

I had the same problem. I just remixed up all the letters and did it over, it accepted it the second time. (No, there were no errors in my solution, I had triple-checked it.)

A. J. Raffles It worked all right for me... Have you checked all the letters in the cryptogram?

This game is an amazing time-waster, by the way. Great fun.k:

NightOwwl I love this game so much! I played it when it was first released and although it took me a long time I actually finished without ever looking at a hint! There are some tough puzzles, but if you get stuck there are hints and a manual at Cliff Johnson's website.

Manual: http://www.fools-errand.com/01-the-fools-e...tion-manual.htm

Hints: http://www.thefoolsgold.com/hints-answers/index.htm

If you like 'The Fool's Errand' you will also like 'At the Carnival' which is available for download at his website.

Nosferrath This is a pretty hard game but it kept in front of my computer for a few hours.

taikara @Eden: The hidden letters are in a very logical location.

You'll smack yourself in the forehead when you find them
