Hints
If you're stuck in The Game of the Ages,
this hints page may help. You won't find explicit answers here
(nor will the authors or webmaster give them out by email),
but you will get some tips that will push you in the right
direction.
Before you consult the game-specific hints, make sure you have
considered these general tips:
- Have you been everywhere? Retrace all your steps and make
sure you've been everywhere the game lets you go.
- Have you tried everything? Try every option available to you,
to make sure you've attempted everything possible.
- If you get lost, draw a map of the confusing areas in the
game. A quick map can help you navigate through any maze-like
areas and identify any paths you haven't taken yet.
- Remember that sometimes you need to select options more than
once to get anything to happen. At other times, you may need to
select multiple options in a specific order.
The hints below are listed in the order you need them in the game;
read them in order and stop after you encounter something you have
not yet done. The game will be more rewarding to complete if you
consult this page as little as possible.
If all else fails, you can post to the
Hints Board on the
RinkWorks Message Forum. Be careful not to spoil the
game for anyone. Be sure to supply your username in your post
(but not your password) and any information you can supply that
would indicate where you are in the game yet spoil the game for
others as little as possible.
