I'm having some difficulties. I'm in LA and Penny is locked in the room. It won't recognize that the gadet is in the cabinet. I already picked up the pliers, and when I couldn't get anything to really work with those, I checked the walkthrough, and there is definately a gadget in there. Penny even sees that there is a gadget in there, but I can't get her to "use" it or "pick up" it. This happened to me in Moscow too. I quit that game and started over. Any clues on how I can get her to pick it up, it just isn't recognizing it at all. Please help me rescue Penny!

Nevermind. I got DosBox and it worked perfectly. If anyone else is having a similar problem, just download DosBox (be sure to utilize the Guide, its great).

Is the file corrupted in some way? When I unzipped the files (into a folder I created, "IG") and ran the game, the text doesn't work correctly!

1: When I try to speak to someone (e.g.: Inspector Gadget in the first scene), the text box is blank!

2: The white rectangle which is supposed to state what I'm highlighting (i.e.: the rectangle that contains the text "Go to?" in all of the pictures on the review page) is empty. The text is just squashed and overlapped somewhere on the left hand side of the screen (in the space of 1 or 2 letters, the whole word is squeezed), making it illegible.

I'm guessing that there is an error on the "text" file, but I'm not sure. Seems like I'm the only one with this problem.

Turns out the problems I mentioned only occur when I run the game in Dosbox (version 0.63). If I run the game in Win XP, no text problems!

I had the same problem (text not appearing) and it was all due to exessive speed. Just let the game run on DosBox with the default 3000 cycles and only adjust the frames with Ctrl+F8 a couple of times (for me it was 4) and all should be fine! :ok:

i dont get this when i download it i cant install it

:help: i cant get this game installed

There is no need to install the game!!!

You just download the game - unzip it - and PLAY :Brain:

sorry, but i can not find the "Robot Control Circuit"
can anybody help me?
:help:

Aha...
You can't find it - you need to make it!
This is what the device you make from all those parts you find in New York is called (so you need to get all the parts mentioned in the walkthrough and put them togeter).

oh...
funny... i think, that i tried to use the battery with the microchip.. :w00t:
never mind

thank you

and for the next time, i read the Walkthrough better, not only one or two lines :blink:

how do i go any where all i can go to is his house
