Weirdly the turtle skeleton puzzle and the ending are the only two parts I can really remember of The Dig.
I think I wound up using a walkthrough to finish the puzzle. It was a bizarre thing to include and probably a sign that nobody had bothered play-testing that part of the game although at the time I didn't really care.
- allenu 5y agoI remember the ending. I remember you had to make a sort of moral decision on behalf of one of the other characters. It was an interesting question posed to the player, but I remember watching a clip of what happens if you do the "bad" thing and found it played out a little goofy. (Sorry, no spoilers here, but you can look it up.)
- totetsu 5y agoNever finished this as kids. Got stuck on the part where you're supposed to hold a crystal up to some light with no explanation.
- AndrewBissell 5y agoI spent a bunch of my parents' money calling the LucasArts 1-900 number to get past obstacles like that one!
- raverbashing 5y agoYeah it would be easier if they had put the skeleton "as it anatomically should". That was tricky I think the laser machine puzzle was in a sense "easier" because it gave a better idea of what it was supposed to do The puzzles definitely needed more "in-game handholding" and if you see, for example in the Thimbleweed park blog they paid attention to some of those aspects.
