Blazing Games - One of those Weeks - Day 3

One of those Weeks

Day 3

General Game play

If you have played through the first two days, and you really should, then you pretty much already know how to play this game. As with the first two days, it is just point and click. As this game takes place outside, arrows will generally be used to indicate that you can go in a particular direction. The inventory has been moved to a bar that appears on the bottom of the screen. The forest is navigated in 3D with the up cursor key on the keyboard moving you forward and the left and right keys turning you left or right. This time, however, when you are in an area that requires moving through a three dimensional area, you will have a map that shows you the areas that you have explored.

Inventory

Not much as changed with the inventory since day 2. You click on items and they get placed in inventory where theycan be used by clicking on them. When using an item you will be prompted on which object in the room you wish to use the item on. This prompt appears in the inventory box and if you change your mind about using the item, then you can click on the cancel button to cancel the use of the item.

Conversations

In this game, there are two type of conversations. Those with yourself (which are shown using traditional cartoon thought balloons) and those with other people, by which I mean Charles as he is the only other person on the island. Both types of conversations will have a series of up to three blue buttons that you can select from to continue the conversation.

Walk through

This game is linear in nature which means that for the most enjoyment the episodes should be played through in order. While you can skip episodes if you are having problems completing the episode, the Making of One of those Weeks eBook (accessible through the articles tab) has walkthroughs of the earlier episodes (the ones for which a chapter of the making of book has been released) so you can simply go to the chapter that has the same number as the episode you are having problems with in order to get the solution to the episode.
