Hi! I got stuck during the Villa mission, I can't figure out a way to steal the suitcase without being caught by the guards somewhere along the way. Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

According to an earlier post, it'll end up in your hotel room anyway.

Try www.gamefaqs.com maybe.

I have to ask, is there any way to get past guards while staging your robbery? Even with chloroform and an accomplice who has a good "melee" skill, the guards always seem to spot me before I can knock them out.

Sneak upon them from behind. The best time to do so is then they make a short break in their patrol route. You'll need to have a higher melee skill than the guards (check "guard level" in the observation summary of the building)

Thank you Wicky, for the much needed piece of advice!

This reminds me, I have played through this game 4 times, once on 386, then on 486, then on Pentium and then on Dosbox, some time ago.
The music is still un-matched by all means.

I downloaded The Clue! from this page http://www.abandonia.com/games/429
And it seems to contain 4 saves far into the game already.
I think there is a max 4 saves also...

When I start a new game and exit, I cant find my new game only the 4 old saves that are not mine.

How do I solve this? Can someone upload a proper clean version without old saves inside it?

Press F1 to save the game and then overwrite one of the pre-saved ones.

It won't save automatically. Thankfully I managed to find and download the manual to tell me how to save a game.
