Did you get anywhere with this. It’s quite ticky.

Darren Straight August 25, 2005 at 10:51 am

Yep I completed it! 😀

I’m now a master detective! 🙂

ps. If anybody need’s any help on how to solve the kitty caper mystery, just ask!

I’m so addicted to this game and I’m sure I’m making this more difficult than it should be but I’m stuck on the most obvious problem… that being the safe.

If you could give me any help I’d be truely gratfeul.

Darren Straight September 20, 2005 at 6:17 pm

Hi Becky,

I’d be happy to help as promised, once you arrive at the mansion and shed and have picked everything up from inside both, go outside and look at the car’s exhaust closely, notice anything sticking out of it like a carrot!

Click the carrot to remove it and use the car keys from inside the mansion to start the engine, the car will then start to move now click on the patch of mud that was underneath the car, the detective will then say his boots are dirty and he better remove them!

Now go back to town to the detectives office you will now notice that he has left his dirty boots by the door, click on them and examine them as you will notice there’s something stuck to the bottom of them, examine this and you will find that its the cat’s collar with a name tag on it with the cats name.

Now you have the cats name you can convert it into letters from a-z “a = 1” and “z=26”

I.e. Snowy = 19-14-15-23-25

Now it’s simple just use the numbers you have as the safe code to enter the safe, I could tell you more but I’ll leave you to solve the Kitty Caper mystery on your own for now.

Have fun! 😀

I have just started the game today and already, i am stuck!! lol
I was wondering about the S.K.I.N access code?? You see, i fugured out the safe code, and i have got the torch, inheritence folder, the emails, the shoes, cats collar and everything but i just can’t seem to get the access code!!
If you could help me out with it, i would be really grateful!
thanks

Darren Straight September 20, 2005 at 11:27 pm

Hi Natalie,

Basically there is no access code for the society for kindly interest in nature website or to put it shorter there is no access code for S.K.I.N. especially not a 72-digit one as the login box requests you to enter but what you may not know is that if you move this pop-up login window out of the way it will reveal something hidden behind it, another image which is in fact a link to the real entrance of the real S.K.I.N which is very evil indeed!

After checking the evil S.K.I.N. Site out you will have a screenshot of it in your inventory as proof of what this organization is really all about.

Now if you’ve also found the hand print you might be ready to speak to the detective to solve the mystery of the kitty capper once and for all, if so and you think you have everything give it a go you have nothing to lose!

Good luck with solving the mystery of the kitty capper, I really hope I win something because I’ve been helping everybody else and it would be a shame if I didn’t win anything.

Mike September 24, 2005 at 10:52 am

I started playing 2 hours ago and think this game is amazing! but already im stuck. i’ve been on the solcator website and got a copy of it n the game but now im stuck and dont no wot 2 do after it now. can sum1 help me plz!!!

Nikki September 24, 2005 at 8:19 pm

Hi, I am realy stuck. So far, i have all the paperwork, the torch, the screwdriver, the collar… etc. i have opened the safe, i have the 1st two pictures, and I don’t know what to do next!!! Its realy annoying me, i have the files from the safe… But do not know how to get to the website that you can put the access code into, help! and what is a S.K.I.N code?

Darren Straight September 25, 2005 at 6:52 pm

Hi you two the problem is the following, yes I can help you but at what cost, the cost of me losing more of a change to win the tickets on the orient express, theres somebody really special I would like to take on the Orient-Express so if I won I would try and take that very special person with me!

I hope you can understand this but I think I’ve already mentioned the hardest parts to the game in my comments above, plus it took me a while to pass the kitty gamer game, so if at first you fail just keep trying and don’t lose hope, eventually you will pass the game with flying colours and be a master detective!

Good luck to you all, hope you don’t hate me for not helping you more but I really would like to win because of what I said.

Cathy September 25, 2005 at 6:57 pm

maya October 1, 2005 at 12:44 pm

in simple words I have the same problem as Nikki, Mike, and Natalie. HOw do I get to the website????

maya October 1, 2005 at 12:49 pm

ANd would someone please tell me what S.K.I.N is???

Darren Straight October 1, 2005 at 11:04 pm

Hi maya,

Ok I’ll help a bit out here, as you’ve made so many comments!

S.K.I.N. stands for “society for kindly interest in nature” but to get to their website you must make sure you have examined everything in your inventory also it’s a good idea to show the old lady everything you have in your inventory too, once you’ve done this you must visit the detectives office and use his computer, if you’ve examined everything that you should have by now then you will have the following option on his screen “Search for information on charity” if you don’t have this then your missing something, but if you do have this click it!

A new window will now open up which will say:

Wonder what I can dig up on the World Wide Web?
Let’s see… ‘Society Kindly Interest Nature’… there can’t be too many of those!
Try putting these words into the MSN Search Toolbar and let’s see what we can dig up

Now that’s exactly what you have to do search in the msn toolbar for “Society Kindly Interest Nature” it won’t be that hard to find and then find out what you have to do on the site which I actually mentioned in one of my previous comments!

Good luck! 😀

Ruth and Gabbi October 3, 2005 at 5:41 pm

I’m having the same problem. I can’t see the pop-up on the SKIN website. This game is getting a bit annoying.

victoria October 4, 2005 at 8:49 pm

i no ive tried 4 ages n even started again

Darren Straight October 4, 2005 at 8:59 pm

Hi Ruth and Gabbi after showing the Birthday Party Invite and Birthday photo to the commissioner you must show him the Inheritance Documents that were found in the safe.

Hi Victoria and Becky the S.K.I.N. site loads ok for me and so does the op up, when you move the pop up out of the way what does it say?

Also make sure you have pop ups enabled in any pop up blocker software you may have.

Gill October 5, 2005 at 9:59 am

I have my e-mail to say there are some documents in my office for me to look at, so how do I start the game

M October 7, 2005 at 11:04 pm

Darren Straight October 8, 2005 at 1:37 pm

In reply to Gill:

In reply to M:

Trina October 10, 2005 at 6:40 pm

Trina October 10, 2005 at 6:58 pm

Sarah October 18, 2005 at 5:44 pm

Darren Straight October 18, 2005 at 7:55 pm

Hey everybody,

Been very busy with college and work, most of what I can tell you is posted above, but I can tell you a couple of more things like the key for the shed is under the plant pot and that make sure you examine everything and show the old lady everything in your inventory to get more information from the PC’s.

For those who haven’t passed the game yet carry on trying and remember it’s only a game even if you can win some cool prizes!

And for those who have passed the game, congratulations too you!

Take care everybody! 😀
