Hints for Snowspirit

For Adventure Jam 2018, I created Snowspirit. If you need a bit of help getting through it, here are a few hints. Highlight/select each bullet point to get ever more “spoilery” hints about a problem.

Hints

 

What am I supposed to do? I’ve run out of things to do

• Try to make it snow again.
  
• The tablets are the key.
  
• One is a recipe.
  
• The others hint how to get ingredients.
• These ingredients aren’t in the real world.
  

 

How do I escape reality?

• What happened when you first woke up from your dream? Something fell off your stalactite.
  
• Find other things to put there
• Go to sleep!

 

How do I wake up from a dream?

• Just step into the light!

 

How can I bring things back from dreams?

• You can’t
• But… important items you pick up while dreaming might have real world effects or manifestations…

 
What am I supposed to do in the forest?

• That’s easy one. Just get some water!
• You might need to revisit it later though.

 

How do I get to the third (probably?) dream?

• You have what you need. What do you have? What haven’t you used? What’s it made of?
  
• Just need to transform it a bit.
  

 

I’m in space and I’m stuck

• Pay attention to the light
• Notice that items in the dreamworld can’t be brought back to the real world, but they do transfer between dreams

 

I need a flower!

• If you don’t even know where to look, see the “third dream hint” above
• Everything in that room is important… so read the descriptions for everything.
• Where is that light coming from?
• Maybe from a previous dream?
• There’s a little water. What’s the water doing? What if there were a lot?
• You might need to do stuff in another dream with something from yet another dream.

 

I did everything and it’s barely snowing….

• Put all the ingredients in the pot? That would be a good start.
• What’s on that fourth triangular tablet? Hmm, you can only see a bit of it…
• At least it tells you how to get to a dream…
