Starshine Legacy Episode 2 – Chapter 1: A Busy Day at School

13 Thursday Nov 2014

Posted by Maggie Oldcamp in Starshine Legacy

chapter1

Today is a day when it almost feels impossible to be Linda. Not only does she have to finish her very ambitious school project, but she also is responsible for the school magazine that is due for printing today. As if that’s not enough, she’s sure to get more work from the teachers due to her competence. She braces herself and gets ready to do all her work as fast as possible because her heart is longing to get to the stables to ride Meteor.

linda

Sometimes I just have too much to do! Days like these I just want to go to the stables and practice with Meteor! I want to be prepared for the riding championships. 

Well, I volunteered to be the editor-in-chief of our school paper, so I must make sure everything is on schedule for the next issue. I’m in charge now! I have to check with Mrs Graham and see if it’s okay for me to leave a bit early today.

Just because I’m ambitious and efficient, and always try my hardest, people assume I can do anything.

New objective: I need to finish all my schoolwork as fast as possible so I can get to the stables.

Go up the stairs and you will be stopped by Mrs Graham pacing at the top.

mrs_graham

Ah, there you are, Linda. You’re the editor-in-chief of the Jorvik School Gazette, if I’m not mistaken? Well young lady, I hope you know that the school gazette has never been late in its century-long history! It would be a shame if you broke this perfect record, wouldn’t it?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

I was told everything was going fine and on schedule. I’m not putting this magazine together by myself, and I hardly know how to print it!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mrs_graham

Responsibility, hard work, and respect for traditions are the cornerstones of this school, as you well know. It is your responsibility to get the gazette done, Linda. No one else will do it for you!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

I understand, Mrs Graham. I’ll make sure it’s done. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mrs_graham

Don’t just stand there, young lady. Hurry up! The clock’s ticking, and there are interviews missing for the last page. You have to finish them before the magazine is printed. Get going, and don’t waste time. 

New objective: I must complete the school gazette. I need to interview Anne, Alex, and Lisa.

Find Anne standing in the main hall, to the right of the stairs.

linda

Hi, Anne! I really need your help to complete the school gazette. Can I do an interview with you? It won’t take long.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Sniff… I’m a little annoyed with you for not putting a picture of fabulous me on the cover of the magazine. I’m convinced more people would read it if it had a picture like that on the front page… I know I would. But okay, make it quick, Josh is waiting for me. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Thanks, Anne. I really, really appreciate it. This is a short thing for the back cover. We’re doing personal interviews with… Interesting students, so just tell me a little about yourself. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Okay. My name is Anne, and my father is the most important man in Jorvik. We have a long history of being the most important family in Jorvik. Not like those rich, upstart Dark Corporation people. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Hmm… Okay, if you say so. What are your goals in life?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Well, I could really do just about anything, but my personality and good looks make me better suited for modeling, or maybe acting, than for an academic career. 

You must make sure you use a really good picture of me in the magazine!

It should be big… And in color… Wait, maybe black and white would look more artistic… No, it should be in color. 

Now to find the next person to interview. Lisa can be found upstairs, at the back of the corridor by the lockers.

linda

Hi, Lisa. How are you? You did great in the tournament last week. Congratulations! I was wondering if you could help me get the school gazette finished. I need an interview of you. It’ll just take a sec.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Sure. And thanks. It’s strange, though. I can hardly believe all that’s been happening these last few days. I’m really happy things are back to normal now. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Yeah… Um… Speaking of which, I was wondering… Are you really dating Josh?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Hmm… Linda, I don’t know what to do about that. He’s really nice and all that, but I know Anne has a crush on him. Anyway, what do you want to know about me for the gazette?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Well, it would be nice to hear a little about who you are. And since you’re new to Jorvik, it’d be interesting to hear what you have to say about the place. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Yeah, like you said, I’m new here and I live with my dad. He spends most of his time on the Dark Core platforms. Everyone in Jorvik has been really nice to me… With a few exceptions, I guess. I’m getting to like the town. I’m into rock music, I play a lot myself. And I’ve taken up riding too, down at the stables. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Thanks, Lisa. We have to get together after school and talk about all the strange stuff that happened last week. Maybe we’ll see each other at the stables. We can talk more then! 

Two down, one more to go. You can find Alex in the upstairs corridor, to the left of the main stairs.

linda

Hey, Alex! I’m finishing the next issue of the school gazette, and I’d like to ask you a few questions. Is that okay with you?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

Sure, Linda… I’d love to help if I can… Fire away.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Great! It’s really, really simple. I’m putting portraits and short interviews of some students on the back cover, so if you just could tell me a little about yourself, that’d be great.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

Sure… I don’t know if anyone will care, but since you’re asking… I’m Alex and I live with my mother and four brothers over in “Crows’ Nest.” It’s a very poor area and it can be really cold in winter. My baby brother is the most important thing in my life, and I like to spend time with horses and fixing engines in my spare time. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

That’s really interesting! What do you want to do when you finish school?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

That’s a tough question. Work with horses… Or maybe as a mechanic fixing cars in a garage. It’d be great if I could do both!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Finally! The last interview is done. Now I can print the gazette. I really hope the printer in the library is working… 

New objectives: I have to print the gazette in the library.

Go back down the stairs to the library; the big double doors on the right side of the statue. Once in the library, go around the bookshelves and approach the printer that is towards the back of the room.

linda

So now all the stuff is finally in place. I’m ready to print! Soon I can take Meteor out for a ride.

blank_printer

Oh, no! I can’t believe it! What’s the problem now? Nothing seems to work for me today. Aha! There’s no ink in the printer. No wonder the pages are blank. 

I don’t know how to fix it! But wait… Maybe the janitor can help me. I must find him quickly!

New objective: I must find the janitor to help me get some ink for the printer.

Find the janitor wandering around the school halls. He is a large guy wearing a light grey button-down shirt.

linda

The printer in the library isn’t working. I think it’s out of ink.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

janitor

Are you sure about that? You haven’t been tampering with it? You didn’t break it, did you?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

No, of course not. Please, I really need to print the gazette. Mrs Graham is going to be furious with me if I’m not done on time!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

janitor

Mrs Graham… Huh. She’s a bit of a dragon sometimes, isn’t she? Okay, I’ll see what I can do. Follow me. Let’s go and have a look at that printer, shall we?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Thanks!

Follow the janitor back to the library.

janitor

There you go, Linda. The ink cartridge is in place and the printer is up and running again. I’m glad I could save you from Mrs Graham – she can be very frightening at times. Trust me, I know!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Thank you very much, sir. You really saved my day!

So now all the stuff is finally in place. I’m ready to print! Soon I can take Meteor out for a ride.

ink_printer

What’s the saying… Publish or perish? Well, now that the gazette is printed, I can finally get out of here. If Mrs Graham lets me go, of course.

I really hope I don’t run into Mrs Graham again. She sounded like she had even more tasks for me to do. And I’m already late for the stables. Poor Meteor, I’m sure he misses me!

Leave the printer and head towards the library door.

linda

Argh, its so typical! There she is, and there’s no way I can get out another way. Maybe if I just walk past and pretend that it’s raining. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mrs_graham

Hello there, young lady! Are you done with the gazette?

Good. I am pleased to see you take responsibility and complete the gazette. Now I have another task for you to do. Professor Hyman is about to lecture at the Royal Academy of Science, and he needs your help. On that blackboard behind you, the professor wrote down his theories and diagrams that explain the more… Shall we say, complex parts of them.

All I need you to do is write this down on paper, so that Professor Hyman’s theories are saved for posterity, and that he can hold his lecture! He’s really nervous, and needs the notes to make a good presentation. You’ll find me in the hall when you’re done. 

New objective: Mrs Graham wants me to scribble down Mr Hyman’s notes from the chalkboard.

Go to the chalkboard behind the desk on the raised platform at the back of the library.

linda

Nooo! Someone wiped out parts of the blackboard – whatever I write down won’t be complete. Mr Hyman will be devastated!

But he held his lecture just a couple of hours ago. I’m sure some students took notes. Maybe if I find them, they can show me their notes.

New objective: I have to find someone who has taken notes from Mr Hyman’s class.

Exit the library and speak to the other students wandering around and ask them if they took notes from the lecture.

male_student

Yeah, I slept through most of Mr Hyman’s lecture. I woke up at the end and made some notes about the inverted primary numbers. Do you want to copy them?

Note 1 of 5

female_student

Yes, I wrote down the list of required reading in my calendar. Please copy it if you need it.

Note 2 of 5

female_student

He quoted so many different people during that lecture – I think I’ve got them all written down. Here’s the list I managed to put together. Please take it.

Note 3 of 5

male_student

Well… I was at Hyman’s lecture, but I was drawing comics… But wait, I did write down the order of unstable elements in the Hyman System. You can have that page from me. I don’t really get it anyway.

Note 4 of 5

female_student

Sure, I took some notes at the Hyman lecture. I’ve got most of it in my locker, but I did the Hyman Correlation Chart on the back of this paper. It’s all I’ve got.

Feel free to use it.

Note 5 of 5

linda

That’s it. Mr Hyman’s notes are complete. Now I can finally get out of here. I just need to hand these over to Mrs Graham first. 

New objective: Okay, now I just have to give Mrs Graham the notes.

Find Mrs Graham standing in the main hall in front of the center statue.

mrs_graham

Oh, my dear child. That was not one second too soon. Professor Hyman’s really nervous, and terrified of making a bad impression at the lecture. I’ll go straight to him with the notes. He’ll be so relieved. And, as usual, you have proven what a resourceful girl you are. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Thank you, Mrs Graham. Um… You know, it’s getting late and I really want to get down to the stables before it’s too late. Unless there’s something else…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mrs_graham

Now that you mention it, we are all looking forward to your essay on the landmarks of Jorvik. Why, I already told my colleagues about those photographs in the trophy cabinet, and the new light you shed on their origin! They were really interested, and were eager to know more as soon as possible. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Well, sure, Mrs Graham, but the work on the landmarks isn’t supposed to be done for another three weeks. I hardly did anything today, what with the gazette and all…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mrs_graham

Sniff… Maybe I’ve been exaggerating the progress of your work, but you wouldn’t want to make the faculty disappointed, would you? Or even worse, make a fool out of me in front of my colleagues. At least make sure you do some research today, so I can sleep tonight, knowing that you’re making good progress on the essay. 

New objective: I need to write a background story about three objects in the trophy cabinet.

Head over to the trophy cabinet on the left side of the main hall. Inspect one of the items inside.

moon_rock

linda

A “moon rock.” Strange, this piece of stone was discovered on the shores of Jorvik in the late forties. It has some strange qualities, more like rocks found after meteor showers. Interesting…

It says here that the rock was part of a collection of strange minerals at the Pine Hill Mansion. It was donated to the school when Pine Hill was abandoned.

astronomer_giobertus

What’s this? An article about the famous astronomer Giobertus visiting the Headmaster. It seems the Headmaster lived at Pine Hill in the twenties, and it seems a lot of things were going on there, then.

 Well, that’s all I can figure out by looking at this little object.

headmaster

Look, here’s a photograph of Pine Hill in all its former glory. There’s Headmaster Stompkins and his chauffeur… Hey, wait a minute. That chauffeur looks almost exactly like Mr Sands… That spooky guy who tried to kidnap Lisa’s horse, Starshine, a couple of weeks ago.

That’s enough for now. I think this is a good start on an essay on Pine Hill Mansion – I hope Mrs Graham will be satisfied with my initial research.

Okay, now I’m finally done and well prepared for school tomorrow. I just hope I can get out of here and off to Meteor without any more delays… I’m heading for the front door!

Hurry! Make your break for it!

Approach the front door, the door you came in at the start of the level, to complete the chapter.

Level 1 completed!

Starshine Legacy Episode 1 – Chapter 7: The Competition

12 Saturday Jul 2014

Posted by Maggie Oldcamp in Starshine Legacy

≈ 1 Comment

chapter7

The day of the tournament has come and now it is time to see if Lisa and Starshine can repeat the great ride from the forest. Sabine will be the opponent and she obviously doesn’t like Lisa, but Lisa won’t let that get her down. She has found good friends in the other girls, and most of all in Starshine.

lisa

This is the tournament day! I’d better go and talk to Mr Herman and the girls so I’m fully prepared.

New objective: “The day of the competition. I’d better talk to Mr Herman.”

Walk over to the others near the fence of the competition arena.

herman

So the day has come, Lisa. You’ve already proven what a courageous and resourceful girl you are. This is a race between you and Sabine.. Kaahn is fast, but Starshine should have a fair chance.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

josh

I’m cheering for you, Lisa. I hear that you play music, too? No matter how this turns out, I’d love to hear you play someday. Here’s my number. Give me a call when you have the time.

In comes Sabine. Oh joy…

sabine

Hi, Lisa. Today you and that stupid albino horse will be so humiliated Oh, hi, Josh. What are you doing slumming with the punk girl?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

josh

Hi Sabine, hi Kaahn – I’m just wishing her good luck, that’s all.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Go get her, Lisa. Now get up in the saddle and believe in yourself… And in Starshine.

Go and mount Starshine to get ready for the race.

herman

The race is divided into three rounds. To complete one round, you must manage three laps around the race track.

The first one over the finish line after three laps is the winner of the round!

The best of all three rounds will be the overall winner of the tournament!

It’s time to start.

You’re now taken to the starting line of the race.

herman

You know the rules. Remember, three laps, three rounds. Best of all three rounds is the winner. Let the best rider win!

New objective: “I need to beat Sabine in at least two of the three competition heats”

It is not impossible to pass Sabine if she gets ahead of you, but it is easier to win if you pass her right at the beginning. She is clumsy and runs into the hay bales around the track (especially the ones around the two short turns). These bales can get pushed into your way and cause you to lose ground in the race.

The races get tedious, but they are short and easy to win.

Win at least two of the three to win the tournament.

If you do not win the tournament, you will have to repeat all three races.

herman

You did it, Lisa! I’m so happy that you decided to come to the stables.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

You did great, Lisa! It’s really funny because this whole thing with Starshine has really made us all – Linda, Alex, you and me – very good friends.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Yes, it is great, and I’m sure this is the beginning of a long and wonderful friendship.

Level 7 completed!

Episode 1 completed…

The story will be continued in Episode 2

Starshine Legacy Episode 1 – Chapter 6: The Woods

chapter6

Something is haunting Lisa in the dark woods, rapidly. There is no time for safe riding now, and wherever the path leads them, it has got to be better than being caught by the thing following them. A fast, dangerous and treacherous road awaits Lisa and Starshine, and Lisa can only trust her instinct to let him loose.

The Dark Rider has been released on your tail. Run like your life depends on it!

Follow the direction signs and blue stars to find your way through the forest to escape the Dark Rider. If you get caught, you’ll be sent back to an earlier checkpoint.

lisa

The cloaked rider didn’t follow us here. The rider is stopping by the edge of the abyss. Good for us.

What is this place? It looks strange and ancient. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

Look – on that stone… What are those pictures? Is that a picture of me?

 

stonering

lisa

I don’t know, Starshine, this looks strange – it looks like us, but then again, not. I must show this to the other girls.

Starshine Legacy Episode 1 – Chapter 5: The Industrial Complex

17 Saturday May 2014

Posted by Maggie Oldcamp in Starshine Legacy

≈ Leave a comment

chapter5

With a determination she did not believe she had in her, Lisa starts making her way into the dark and scary woods. Though she never walked these woods before, even in daylight, she feels guided by the presence of Starshine. The thought of him pushes the chill of the night away, and gives her the strength to walk even faster. She arrives at the location Anne told her about, and starts scanning the surroundings.

lisa

This must be the industrial complex. Looks like it’s well-guarded. I have to find another way in… Perhaps through these pipes…

New objective: “So this is the Dark Core building. I need to find some way in. I must find Starshine, without being discovered.”

Go into the big pipe and walk through it until you are into the open area inside the gate.

lisa

I’m in! Now I have to avoid the search lights… I mustn’t let them see me!

If I can use these wheels to seal all the pipes here, the steam pressure may blow a hole in the big pipe big enough for me to squeeze through…

New objective: “I need to turn all the four pressure wheels.”

Go around to each pipe bridge and click to turn the wheels. Avoid being seen by the search lights. Once you turn all four of the wheels, the pressure will blow a hole in the large pipe in the middle of the area, and the search lights will turn off.

lisa

Looks like I can sneak through the hole into the pipe without getting spotted by the searchlights…

Go through the pipe and into the next area. Cross the area and into the sunken space. Go into the pipe on the other side of the sunken space. It comes out into a toxic river. You can cross by running along the pipe that crosses the river, and then turn left onto the pipe on the other side. It goes upwards and over another pipe. You can drop down off of your current pipe, into the broken space in the lower one. Run through the lower one into the next space.

lisa

Hmm, a car… I wonder whose car that is? Maybe I can find some clues to who is behind all this

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

Lisa, this is a dark place indeed, and I am weaker than ever before.

New objective: “There is a car in here. I’d better examine it.”

Approach the car and click to examine it near the front door.

lisa

Hmm… The car seems to belong to Dark Core… Anyway, with this keycard on me, I might be able to open the gates from a distance.

Walk up the ramp to the building and go inside when the gate opens.

lisa

It worked! As soon as I get close to a big gate, it’ll open!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

Lisa, I can feel you… I am here in the dark.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Hmm… Maybe I can get ride of these guys if I can distract them…

New objective: “I must lure away these guards somehow.”

Cross the room to the large boiler contraption and inspect the button on the post.

lisa

There’s an alarm button over there. I should be able to hide behind the thick steam if they come running out…

Press the button and hide behind the steam to wait for the guards to leave.

lisa

Well, that should keep them busy for a while… Now I need to get Starshine out of here!

Go up to Starshine’s enclosure to see what you can do to get him out.

lisa

Oh, Starshine, there you are… I’m gonna try to get you out of here.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

Dear Lisa, it seems our friendship will be very short. I can’t see how we can escape this.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Don’t give up, Starshine. I’ll do whatever I can to save you.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

You have a special power, I promise. And you woke me from a dark sleep. But you’ve already tried to heal me and it didn’t work.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

My father always told me, never give up, and I’m stronger now, Starshine. My love for you is much more powerful than those dark and evil men.

New objective: “Starshine is still in pain. This time I must succeed in healing him.”

When the blue symbol appears on the screen, click to heal Starshine.

lisa

I did it! I managed to heal you, Starshine! Where my powers come from, I’ll never know.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

You really did it, Lisa. You got rid of all the darkness that was infecting my leg… But I hate to rain on your parade here, Princess. I’m still in here.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I think the gizmo I got from Alex may come in handy here… I think I can open this cage with it.

Oh look who it is, our old friend Mr Sands…

mr_sands

I knew it! The girl has special powers that are somehow connected with the white horse…

Click to use the tool to unlock the cage, then approach Starshine when the bars descend.

lisa

The cage is unlocked! We have to leave now. Fast!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

I’m ready! Jump on my back and we’ll get out of here!

Click to mount Starshine and prepare to ride for your life!

mr_sands

Run all you like, little girl. Something dark is coming for you and the horse… And it’s coming fast. Ha ha ha!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

You can’t get me. Starshine is too fast for you.

Take off through the industrial complex. Follow the blue stars to escape. Jump over the pipes and avoid the Dark Core workers trying to stop you. If you get caught you will have to start over from the previous gate. When you get to the front gate, you will have escaped the complex.

Level 5 completed!

Starshine Legacy Episode 1 – Chapter 4: Where is Starshine?

06 Tuesday May 2014

Posted by Maggie Oldcamp in Starshine Legacy

≈ Leave a comment

chapter4

Lisa rushes over to the stables. When she woke up this morning she didn’t know anyone here, but now she feels that she has lost her best friend. How does it all add up? Mr Sands, Starshine, and Sabine, and the mysterious Dark Core – they are all somehow connected but Lisa can’t make out how. She curses herself for leaving Starshine in such a state. She knows that she will do everything in her power to get Starshine back, and never leave him again…

lisa

It’s already dark… I hope Anne is still at the stables.

New objective: “I need to find Anne and Mr Herman to find out what happened.”

Go into the stables to find your friends and learn what happened to Starshine.

lisa

Anne, Alex… What happened here?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Starshine is gone. I don’t really know what happened. Maybe Mr Herman knows more.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

This really stinks, Lisa. I think someone with really bad intentions broke in and took Starshine. I think Mr Herman saw what happened.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

I can’t believe it! Masked men broke in here – into my stables – and took this fine horse right before my eyes!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

How did they manage to take him so quickly? I mean, he was injured, wasn’t he?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Two men grabbed me while the other ones abducted Starshine. What nerve!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Maybe the people who did this left some traces?

Let’s search the stable for clues…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Okay, you do that. I’ll go out and check the stable grounds. 

New objective: “Maybe I can find some clues here in the stables.”

Go search around the inside of the stables to find a clue about who could have done this.

Behind the last box, near the inside door at the far end, is a matchbox that was left. Click on it to look at it.

lisa

This is strange! A matchbox with the Dark Core logo on it. And look, something is scrawled on it…

“DC Barricade.” What is that?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Oh, I know what that is. It is an old abandoned dark core warehouse.

We should go there and see if that’s where they took Starshine.

Here comes Sabine… Of course she is not being helpful…

sabine

I can’t let you do this! If the teachers and your parents find out, they’ll go crazy!

Stay here and let the police take care of this.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I can’t believe she locked us in!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

That girl is just too much! What is she up to now?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

That girl is completely mental… Doesn’t she realize what’s at stake here?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

How on earth are we going to get out of here?

New objective: “Sabine has locked us in! We need to find a way out.”

Go down to the end of the stables, near where you found the matchbox. There is an electrical switch box that could work.

lisa

This lever is used to open the doors.

No, something is jamming the lock. I can’t do it.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

Anne and I will heave ourselves down on that lever… I think we can open the hatch enough for you to get out, Lisa.

Here! Take this thing, it’s great to have if you ever end up in a jam.

Now run to the door, and Anne and I will get this thing open.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I’ll go to the abandoned site. It’s better if you stay here and wait for Mr Herman.

New objective: “I need to go to that Dark Core place and find Starshine.”

Pick up the tool that Alex drops for you then go out the stable doors when Anne and Alex open them.

lisa

I’ll have to go to the abandoned site… In the dark… But I must do this for Starshine.

Starshine Legacy Episode 1 – Chapter 3: The Library

chapter3

So much has happened in such a short time. Linda seemed to have important news but Lisa feels terrible about leaving Starshine in the state he is in. When she arrives at school it is late at night, and she knows that she is not really allowed here at this time. She sneaks into the dark and eerie building.

lisa

The school is closed. And the janitor is guarding the main hall.

But I must sneak into the library and meet Linda…

…And I don’t have a clue which door leads to the library. I have to locate it without being caught…

New objectives: “It’s dark and the janitor is somewhere. I must sneak past him.”

The library is the door in front of which Linda was standing when you first met her in chapter one. It is the double door opposite where the Registrar’s office was.

Sneak past the janitor by avoiding his flashlight beam. When you are close to the library door, click to open it, and walk inside to meet Linda.

linda

I’m glad you came, Lisa. I was afraid that the janitor wouldn’t let you in. Come over here and I’ll show you something.

I was doing some research on Mr Sands… And you won’t believe what I found out…

Here, look at this.

Hmm… It’s a very old photo. And that man in the corner of the picture looks like somebody we know.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Isn’t it strange! This picture is more than a hundred years old and the guy to the left looks exactly like that creepy Mr Sands.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Yes, you’re right, but how can that be? Let’s see if we can find more clues about Mr Sands and the Dark Core Corporation.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Yes. But there are some books missing from the library. I think some negligent students didn’t return the books when they should have…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I saw some books scattered in the main hall. Maybe they’re the missing ones?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Well, it’s worth having a look. Go get them while I keep on searching the library. Be careful and beware the janitor!

New objectives: “We need to find those five books. They should be in the main hall.”

Go back out the library door, avoid the janitor, collect all of the missing books, then return to Linda.

There are two books on the main floor, one on each side of the hall. There is one on the balustrade on the middle landing. The last two are on the sills around the upper floor. The books are marked as red dots on your radar.

linda

Great, Lisa! You found some interesting books.

Combined with all the other information I found here, this gives us some really strange clues…

The Jorvik Correspondence, December 14, 1871

Deep Sea Monster Caught Just Outside Jorvik!

newspaper1

On the 11th of December a hideous sea creature was caught in the fishermen’s net just outside Jorvik bay. The creature seemed to belong to a deep sea specimen, with several huge eyes and tentacles. The fishing boat captain, Mr Sanders, says that the net got tangled to something just above the ocean edge known as the Kraken Depths. Unfortunately, before any scientists were able to examine the unknown sea creature, the fishermen dropped it back into the deep seas just outside the harbor. Due to the immense depth outside Jorvik and the ocean currents, the carcass could not be found again when the scientists’ search boat was dragging the coast line.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

A sea creature! This is bizarre. And there is our Mr Sands again, but he’s called “Mr Sanders” here.

Owner and billionaire, adventurer, and patron Mr Owen D Sands says: “This will change the face of this island forever. We are going to drill for depths unknown to man. It is the start of a glorious age,” says Mr Owen D Sands.

The Deep Core Drilling Company’s goal is to search for unknown metals and ore.

The new industry will hopefully employ hundreds of workers and put Jorvik on the map of the new global industrial explosion.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

This is from back when drilling began in Jorvik. But the company was called Deep Core back then…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

190 workers and engineers presumed trapped or dead inside the Deep Core site.

Worst disaster ever in Jorvik!

During the drilling of a new deep mine shaft at the Deep Core 3 mine, a cave-in occurred in the early hours of May 7th. The cave-in trapped all night shift workers on their way up after a day’s work.

Deep Core Drilling Company closes down its facilities and business in Jorvik.

Due to the deadly incident in 1903, when 211 workers and 14 civilians died in a presumed cave-in/gas accident, the company is forced to shut down its entire business in Jorvik.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Further accidents at the deep core sites. It seems they had to shut down in 1904.

The Jorvik Correspondence, July 16, 1933

Horse Saves Four Girls Trapped in Old Ruins!

newspaper5

A horse became the hero of yesterday’s rescue mission in the old grave field northwest of Jorvik. After a school excavation trip to the ruins, four girls went missing. A massive search party comprising the police, school staff, and local citizens searched the old fields for hours. The four young girls were found just before sundown, not by the search party, but by a horse called “Little Starshine” from Jorvik Riding School. The heroic horse found a narrow hole where the girls seemed to have slipped through. All girls were safe, although somewhat confused as they spoke about the ghost they had met in the ruins. When the hole was investigated, the search party found no signs of a ghost, of course.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Look at this! A story about a horse called Little Starshine… These name similarities are starting to get creepy!

Your phone is ringing. Who could be calling at this hour?

lisa

Hello?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Lisa! Are you with Linda? You must come back to the stables as fast as possible. Something terrible has happened…

New objective: “Something happened to Starshine! I must get back to the stables.”

Starshine Legacy Episode 1 – Chapter 2: Jorvik Stables

09 Thursday Jan 2014

Posted by Maggie Oldcamp in Starshine Legacy

≈ 16 Comments

chapter2

Filled with impressions from her first day in school, Lisa braces herself and walks up to the Jorvik Stables. The memory of horseback riding as a kid feels vague compared to the memory of falling down, injuring herself. She takes a deep breath, and heads for the stables to return Linda’s keys.

lisa

Ok, so this is the Jorvik Stables – what a place! Well, I have to find Linda, who really helped me out earlier today, to return her keys.

New objective: “I need to find Linda to return her keys.”

Go towards the paddock and speak to Anne standing there with her horse.

anne

Oh, there you are… I had no idea you were interested in riding too. This is my horse Concorde, the finest stallion on the lot. By the way, were you all flirty with Josh?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

No, not really. By the way, have you seen Linda?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

I think I saw Linda a little while ago… Have you tried the stables?

Go over by the stable, by the two people standing there, Herman, the stables owner, and Sabine, who you have previously met.

sabine

Kaahn is the fastest horse around, and I demand to be listed as the top rider for the upcoming competition.

What are you doing here, city girl? The Jorvik Stables has over a year waiting list, so you can forget about riding here with us.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Sabine is right, the school is full, unfortunately. I would love to make room for you, but right now it’s not possible.

Speak to Herman again to be able to enter the stables.

herman

Please have a look around the stables and make yourself at home.

If you’re looking for Linda, you might want to try the stables – she helps out in there, taking inventory of supplies.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

Little Red Riding Hood… Don’t get in Kaahn’s and my way!

When Sabine moves out of the way, approach the stable doors, and click to open them and go inside.

vet

This is truly tragic. Such a fine horse, but something isn’t right with him.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

What’s wrong with him?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

vet

His name is Starshine. He has the potential to be the fastest horse in Jorvik. But he seems to have lost his willpower. He won’t eat, drink, or let anyone near him. It’s really too bad. I think we might have to put him down.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

Who are you?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Who said that?… Hello?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

Come closer to the box… I’m here in the dark.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Starshine… You are beautiful. But… How can I hear you?… In my head?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

I don’t know, girl, but I understand you too… Scary stuff. Please help me… Something is destroying me from the the inside, a dark power, but I don’t know what it is.

I’m sure I can get back in the ring if someone like you will help me.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

What is this? How can I understand what this horse named Starshine wants? I must help him… I need to talk to Mr Herman. Now!

Speak to Linda when she stops by you and Starshine.

linda

Hey, Lisa! Nice to see you here. I didn’t know you’re interested in riding.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Actually, I came here to return your keys. Thank you so much for helping me out today. But I think that Sabine has a grudge against you.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Yeah! I don’t know what her problem is. I’m half suspecting that she stole my keys and planted her phone in my locker to get me in trouble. 

lisa

I don’t know her, but it wouldn’t surprise me. Hey listen, I need to get Starshine into the ring to prove his worth, or he might be put down! The problem is that I haven’t been riding in years and don’t know if I can still do it.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Don’t worry, Lisa, believe in yourself and it’ll work out fine.

New objective: “Poor Starshine! I must help him. I should talk to Mr Herman.”

Go out the stable doors and speak with Herman.

herman

What can I do for you, young lady?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I’m asking you to give Starshine and me a chance. Everyone here thinks he’s no good, but I’m sure I can show them that he’s as good as anyone.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Something tells me you actually could pull this off, little girl… Lisa, is it? I’m sure we can find you some riding gear and get Starshine out in the smaller paddock.

Out in the paddock…

herman

Well, we got Starshine ready for you. If you can make him come around, I promise you a spot in the riding school and a good future for Starshine.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

You’re going to fail big-time, girlfriend.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Ignore her, Lisa. Just take it easy and everything will be fine.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

Go, girl! Don’t let Sabine get away with that!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Oh, Starshine… Something bad must have happened to you. I’ll try to make it better. For some reason I feel connected with you even though I can’t hear you anymore. Maybe I just imagined your voice.

And in walks Mr Sands…

starshine

The dark presence feels stronger now… You must help me.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Strange… It started when that creepy Mr Sands appeared.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Poor horse. Starshine seems to be very nervous. Lisa, before mounting him, you have to call him down.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

I don’t think you know how to take care of a horse.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Don’t listen to her… Lisa, just stay close to Starshine and pat him a few times.

New objective: “If only I can calm him down, I’m sure Starshine will let me ride him.”

Walk up to the front of Starshine and wait for the hand to pop up. Then click to stroke him a couple of times.

herman

That is excellent, Lisa… Maybe there’s a normal horse in there just waiting to get out. Try to mount him and see if you can take him for a couple of rounds in the paddock.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

You lucky city girl… I’m sure you’ll hit the ground faster than I can say, “white trash princess.”

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

I thought I was the white trash princess… Just ignore her, Lisa, and go.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Please, Starshine, for both our sakes… Don’t freak out on me.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

I’ll try not to, but keep that man away from me… It’s like I can’t see properly.

New objective: “This is going well. I should be able to take him around the paddock.”

Move to Starshine’s side and when the saddle icon pops up, click to mount. Ride Starshine around the paddock and collect all of the blue stars.

herman

Very nice. Now dismount and come over here so we can talk.

Right click to dismount Starshine, then walk over to Herman.

herman

That was impressive, Lisa… I think you and Starshine have taught us all a lesson. I think it may be a good idea to take Starshine into the big paddock to see what he can really do.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

Well, trotting around is one thing, but that wreck of a horse is nothing compared to Kaahn.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Let’s take it easy, Starshine, and I’m sure this will work out fine for us. It’s strange… I’ve been afraid of riding ever since I was ten, but I don’t feel that with you.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Hey, Lisa, I have to leave for the library… I’ll call you later. Good luck in the large paddock!

In the large paddock…

herman

This is the large paddock, where the competitions are held.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

Hmph… I’m telling you, the closest you’ll come to the competition is as a spectator, so don’t even dream about it, city girl.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Remember, you have to make Starshine gallop before you jump over the bar hurdles.

If not in gallop, he’ll refuse to jump over.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

Go, Lisa, go, go, go!

New objectives: “If I can make Starshine jump over the hurdles, I might be able to save him.”

Mount Starshine and bring him up to a gallop. Press the spacebar to jump. Jump over all the hurdles and collect the blue stars, then stop by Herman.

herman

We’re all very impressed! Dismount Starshine and come over here, Lisa.

Dismount Starshine and walk over to Herman.

starshine

I feel something bad is about to happen.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mr_sands

The white horse is indeed fast.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

This is fantastic, Lisa… You and Starshine have not only earned a position at the school, but also a spot in the competition this weekend.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

And when you compete against Kaahn and me, this white cow won’t look so fast.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

Oh no! What’s wrong with Starshine? Look at him!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Starshine is very nervous again. Lisa, you seem to be the only one who can calm him down. Try patting him again.

Poor Starshine!

fainted_starshine

starshine

Help me, Lisa… This is what I feared.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Tell me what to do, Starshine… I’ll do anything.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

starshine

I don’t know, but I feel that you’re the only one who can help me out of this mess.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Starshine is hurt! Help me!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Let’s get this fine horse back to his box and I’ll get the vet to look at him immediately.

In the stable…

vet

This is very troubling. I can’t figure out the nature of this injury, but it’s obvious that this horse is in pain.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

You surprised me today, Lisa. You could obviously reach Starshine in a way that I haven’t seen anyone do in a long time.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

What do you mean, Mr Herman?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Some people say that there are special people who have been chosen to communicate with horses. Maybe you’re one of these people… Some say that these people have other powers as well.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Do you think I can help Starshine when the vet can’t?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

Look inside yourself, Lisa, and maybe you can do something that we can’t.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Let me see that leg, Starshine… I’m going to try something.

New objective: “Maybe I can heal this horse somehow, if I can gather all my strength.”

Move in front of Starshine’s box and click to heal him when the blue horse symbol appears over his head.

starshine

It’s so strange, Lisa… The darkness that is choking me almost disappeared. You’re almost there, Lisa… Don’t give up.

Try healing Starshine again.

starshine

I can feel your powers, but it’s not enough, Lisa.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I’m sorry, Starshine… I can’t do it. There’s something I need to learn or find out if I’m going to be able to help you. I felt I was close, too, but I’m just too weak…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

This horse couldn’t even manage a simple ride in the ring… And this is what you want the superior Kaahn and me to be competing against? Put him to sleep so this school won’t have the embarrassment anymore.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

That’s out of the question, Sabine. I saw a wonderful horse out there earlier today, and we’re going to take care of him. Especially if he’s hurt and needs help.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mr_sands

Maybe we can offer a solution. My name is Mr Sands, and I represent people who are interested in helping needy horses. I’m willing to pay you a handsome price for the poor horse, and you will break these girls’ hearts by putting it to sleep.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

herman

I’m sorry, Mr Sands, I won’t sell this horse – but I won’t kill it either. Now I must ask you to leave, please. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mr_sands

Very well. Your passion is commendable… I bid you good day, but we will meet again.

Your phone is ringing. Use the mouse wheel or square brackets ( [ and ] ) to select the phone on the sidebar. Click to answer it.

lisa

Yes, hello?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Hey Lisa, it’s Linda.

Come over to the library at school – I did some research and came across some very interesting things.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

The school library?

New objective: “Linda wants to show me something in the library. I’d better go there.”

Level 2 completed!

Starshine Legacy Episode 1 – Chapter 1: First Day of School

11 Monday Nov 2013

Posted by Maggie Oldcamp in Starshine Legacy

≈ 20 Comments

chapter1

Because of her father’s job, Lisa’s life is upside down. Torn away from the city where she grew up, she finds herself in the remote little seaside town of Jorvik, with no friends and no idea of how things work around here, she works up as much courage and strength as she can possibly find, and prepares herself for her first day in this strange place.

lisa

Oh, my first day of school and I don’t know anyone here.

I really don’t want to mess up. Hmmm… I need to get going. I don’t want to miss my first day in school. 

New objective: “I need to find the registrar’s office before I can go to class.”

Go up the stairs and to the left of the statue in the middle of the room. Take a look at the trophy case as you walk past.

lisa

Hmm… The school has a lot of trophies… And some are for riding competitions… 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mr_sands

Hello there, young lady! I noticed you were looking at the old things in the cabinet. You look like a Taurus to me…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Taurus? Yes, I am. How did you know?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mr_sands

Tell me, do you like horses?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I used to ride a lot. Why do you ask? Who are you?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mr_sands

You can call me Mr Sands… And I sense that you were once hurt by a horse, am I right?

What a creep! Speak to him again and maybe he’ll go away.

mr_sands

Well, little redhead, I’m sure we will meet again…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Yuk… That guy gives me the creeps… Better stay away from him. I wonder who he is?

With that encounter over, continue over to the registrar’s office.

lisa

The note says, “Be right back!”

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Hey! Are you new here? Just what kind of fashion statement is that? Maybe you think it’s chic, but trust me, it’s not. I’m Anne by the way, but I’m sure you knew that.

As a newcomer, knowing who’s important who’s not is critical. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Hmm, I guess that would make you important, right?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Don’t be stupid – Of course I’m important. Anyway, I think you need to find a hairstylist…

What is that – Punk or grunge or what?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

It’s just my hair. Sorry you don’t like it.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Tell you what, sweetie. I can help you, but for a small favor.

The guy over there by the pillar next to the library is Josh. He is very interested in me for obvious reasons, but hasn’t worked up enough courage yet to ask for my cell phone number.

If you run over and give him my number, I will help you. 

New objective: “Anne wants me to give her phone number to the guy Josh.”

Go over to the blonde guy standing besides the stairs. That’s Josh, and you have a mission…

josh

Hi! You’re the new girl, right? I saw you arriving in Jorvik the other night… I really like your hair… All the other girls here just look the same. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Oh, thanks… Well, I was supposed to give you this.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

josh

Oh… A phone number. Anne’s?

I thought it was yours… Ah, never mind.

Thanks.

Now return to Anne and tell her you have completed your mission.

anne

Well done, Rock Girl… I hope your appearance didn’t scare him off. So, you want to know where the Janitor is? He is on the second floor just left off the stairs, talking to Sabine, the most stuck-up girl in school. If I know her right, she will stand there yappin’ forever. 

New objective: “I need to find the Janitor on the second floor.”

Go up the stairs and to the right up the second flight of stairs. Around the corner to the left, at the top of the stairs is the Janitor and Sabine.

lisa

I bet that’s Mrs Graham – The teacher who everyone told me about, and the Janitor is standing behind her. How am I gonna get past her?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mrs_graham

Hold it right there, young lady! Where do you think you’re going?

There is no running around here unless you’re going to class, and you don’t even have your books with you. 

Off you go. Don’t make me tell you again.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Do I need books just to walk around the school?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

mrs_graham

Certainly! This is a civilized school, and if you’re not going to class you can’t just run around all over the place.

New objective: “Mrs Graham is a strict teacher. I need to find some books to get past her.”

Well, it’s your first day of school and you don’t have your books yet, but Mrs Graham won’t take no for an answer. Return to Anne with your conundrum.

anne

What’s with the long face? Wasn’t the Janitor where he was supposed to be?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Well, it proved a little more difficult than I thought…

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Let me guess! You can’t get there because Mrs Graham is stopping you all the time… You need books to get past her, you know.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I guess so.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

anne

Well, I never carry my books myself, but I guess you’ll have to…

Tell you what, go talk to Miss Einstein over there. Her name’s Linda, and she has more books than the Jorvik Library.

New objective: “I need to find this Linda girl. Maybe she can help me get the books.”

Cross the main atrium and Linda is standing in front of the library doors.

linda

Oh, it’s great that you need to borrow some books! I have two or three copies of each textbook for every class, to make different notes in and so on. I’d be happy to help you out.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Thanks, Linda, that would be great. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

linda

Oops! There is just one problem. I can’t get into my locker because I have lost my keys. The Janitor will be absolutely furious if he finds out that school keys are unaccounted for…

Well, I guess Alex could help us. She is right over there between the stairs. She is more capable than any boy I have ever seen. 

When it comes to screws, metal, or anything mechanical, she does a better job than anyone else… 

Go over and ask if she can help us out. 

New objective: “I need to find Alex. I hope she can help me open Linda’s locker.”

Go up the first flight of stairs and speak to Alex. She is standing on the landing.

alex

So, how can I help you?

I don’t think you want to hang with me and the boys…

I saw you talking to Princess Anne a little while ago. If you hang out with us too much I don’t think that supermodel wannabe will talk to you again.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

Well, actually I could use some help, and I hear you’re the one to talk to.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

I hope you’re not gonna start crying now, City Girl…

I really don’t like that whole “Sob, sob, feel sorry for me because I’m such a cute girl” routine.

Let’s make a deal… You show me that you’ve got some guts, unlike all the other girls around here, and I’ll crack the locker. But you need to catch me first!

New objective: “I’ll show this Alex girl that I’m okay. I just need to catch her.”

Alex is running back and forth across the landing. Get close enough to speak to her to catch her.

alex

You’re not as weak as you look! Follow me and I’ll take you to Linda’s locker!

Follow Alex to Linda’s locker and speak to her when you get there.

alex

Let’s see… It’s open! And there are the books. Take them!

What’s this? Sabine’s cell phone in Linda’s locker?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

That’s really strange! But I guess I can give it to her. I saw her over by the Janitor.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

alex

Okay, take it and give it to Sabine. Lisa, you’re okay. Well, I hope I’ll see you around… If you like riding, both Linda and I go to the stables almost every day. 

New objective: “Great! Now I have the books. Now I just need to talk to the Janitor.”

Pick up the books and Sabine’s cell phone and take them to the Janitor at the end of the hall.

sabine

As a school employee, you ought to listen to me as you know how much my father has done for this school. The grand clock has been restored thanks to his donation. It is very simple. I am telling you, that Linda girl is a thief… She has stolen my cell phone and I demand that you have a look in her locker. 

I am sure you are going to find my cell phone there. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

janitor

I think you’re over-reacting, Sabine. 

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

I am not over-reacting – Now do as I tell you or you may be out of a job.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

lisa

I’m sorry to interrupt, but I found this phone in the hall… You’re Sabine, right?

-.-.-.-.-.-.-

sabine

Oh… But that’s not possible… Hmm… Oh, thanks. But you should mind your own business in the future.

As Sabine walks away, approach the Janitor to speak to him.

janitor

Please follow me to the Registrar’s office and we’ll get you registered. And remember to return the keys to Linda.

Follow the Janitor down the stairs to the Registrar’s office.

janitor

Here you go, Lisa, all things are in order and here is the key to your locker and your books!

Remember, you need to be in Room 5 for your first class.

Starshine Legacy – Intro

intro

Welcome to Starshine Legacy!

When you start the game, you begin on the menu screen. You can choose to start a new game or load a previously saved game, as well as select game options. Once in the game, click the ‘Esc’ button to exit to the main menu.

The game controls use the W, A, S, D keys on your keyboard to move the character. When on foot, I find it easiest to use the mouse to control the direction Lisa runs (just hold W to move forward and move the mouse left or right to move in that direction). Click the Shift key while also holding W to run. Use the mouse wheel to move through the icons on the side of the screen to select them.

The map shows your location on the island. You will receive phone calls in the game, select the phone to answer it when it rings. The journal will tell you what current tasks need to be completed. Any items that you pick up will be stored in your backpack, and you can view them from there. Right click to exit any of the icons when you are finished.

As you navigate the game world, you can speak to the other characters there. When a question mark appears above their head, left click to begin the dialogue. Some dialogue will begin automatically. Left click to move through the conversation.

When on horseback, use W, A, S, D to control the horse. Use W and S to speed up and slow down. The camera automatically centers when on horseback so you do not need to use the mouse to move the camera. To jump over an object, you must be in a gallop, then click the spacebar to jump. Hold down W to maintain max speed. To dismount, stop the horse then right click.

Occasionally an important object or person will appear on your minimap as a red dot. Some objects may also have orange sparkle around them to indicate you can interact with them.

After each chapter you have the option of saving your progress or continuing without saving.

If you have any other questions about the game control, please comment on this page.
