Gaming Lost in Blue 1

[Little]

I know two is out in jap and due out for us soon, which got me back into playing one! i'm really frustrated though. I'm trying to hunt, to get fur to finish the beds and make jerky. However, I can rarely ever get to the hunting screen and actually see the deers. Then when my arrows hit, it just looks stunned and runs away. Do I need to use traps? I don't understand the traps! Is it bad that I'm at day 46 and i've not caught any animals? I've gone over the lake and got through about 2 rooms in the ruins! Can anyoen help?

Hmmm.... I'm trying to remember - it's been so long since I played LiB

love

that game though!

From what I recall hunting deer is difficult at first. I believe the trick is to make a large (snare) trap first and set it in the grasslands in an area where you have seen a deer. Then leave an come back (you should hear animal sound fx right away if you've caught something). When you go over to check the trap *then* you use the bow and arrow to kill it.

Good luck

Thank you ! =D I think I will try using traps now!

No problem - enjoy! You've inspired me to replay LiB whilst I wait for the US release of the sequel. By the way, I know everyone here loves ROMs and all but if you're a fan of this game it's worth buying in my opinion. Pre-orders receive a bonus gift, a custom stylus made to look like one of the sharpened sticks from the game. The tip glows like an ember when you tap or rub the stylus on the screen. Oh yeah, there's also an island themed one of those screen-wipe accessories.

1) get a wooden stick and then mix it with a vine, itll make large trap.
2) put up a bunch of large traps
3) ????
4) profit!

just wait a bit. you'll hear a weird honking if somethings been caught.

(btw, theres a glitch in the game. after u activate the large trap, and u press B to leave the inventory menu, press A rapidly and it'll set a trap AND you get to keep ur trap. it wont show on the map yet, but leave the map and come back and all the traps u set will appear. u can set like 10 from a single trap.)

Oh cheers for the info iwakura! Your glitch method didn't quite work... but I did remembering reading about one. From google, I found that pressing A just as you tap backpack works, as it means you pick it up right after you place it. You see your character bend down just as it goes to the backpack.

With the use of the above glitch, I FINALLY managed to get a boar! I was advised that leaving/going back to the map was a good way to do it... having traps near the entrance of the grass lands!

 

[iwakura]

worked for me i just tried it.

man im stuck at the last puzzle in the maze thingy! anyone got any idea how to do it?

mm...i guess that goes under a diff thread, but i dont want to makea new one just for that >_>

 

[imgod22222]

yeah, it sucks that it takes like 4 arrows to kill a friggin deer, and boars must have hurt me a couple of times... it seems that being attacked is a hard way to die... xD iwakura, i'd also like to know that. Keep it in this thread tho plz.
