Monty Python's The Meaning of Life - Part 4 Developed by 7th Level, Distributed by Panasonic FAQ/Walkthrough 2.2 - 3/22/98 Written by CJayC (cjayc@gamefaqs.com) Concluded from Issue 81 VIII. Act III: The Cottage of Life A. Act III Common Sticking Points -- What's the password? -- The password can be found by carefully noting the names of the two computers, listening to the story given by the mask, and watching a video... -- How do I make the salmon mousse? -- Follow the recipe! It's pretty easy, well, once you realize what the six machines are! 1 - Heater 2 - Chopper (use twice for FINELY chopped items) 3 - Whipper 4 - Can Opener (AHA!) 5 - Chiller 6 - Mixer -- How do I play the organ? -- The Concerto and the Poem need to be placed on the organ (they're both in the computer room), and the key guide is on the bookshelf. -- The mouse hates all the cheese! What can I do? -- Pesky little bugger, isn't he? He won't run the wheel, no matter what you do. You need some thing different. Try recording and then playing the correct tune on the organ first, and then check the window to the left of the screen. -- I can't use the shovel on the "X"! What gives? -- See section III. -- What's with the sliding puzzle? It doesn't do anything! -- That's because it's not a sliding puzzle. It just looks like one. Hints for what to do with it can be found in a book on the desk behind you, and on the Shaka computer. -- What's wrong with the parrot? -- He's insane. He mixes up the notes you play to him on the Rose and Weight scales. One of them he transposes, and the other he mirrors. Just record the keys so he'll error in your favor. -- How do I get rid of Big Labour? -- Once you teach the parrot to speak correctly, you'll need to place him on the perch in the back room. Click on him to have him speak, and if you got it right, you'll hear a chord. If you exit, you'll hear a higher chords (the same one you hear when you see Big Labour). Enter, the low chords. Exit, the higher chords. You've got to shut the parrot up so he won't speak a second time. -- How can I shut the parrot up? -- Beat him to death. Fun, isn't it? Just be sure to do it after he speaks an odd number of times. -- Where's the cheese? -- There are eight pieces of cheese in total, seven of them in random locations. The Gouda is always found inside Timmy the Computer, and the possible locations for the remaining pieces are as follows: Computer Area, on rug beneath Shaka Computer Area, on floor beneath Statue Computer Area, on top of Shaka's scanner. Computer Area, above the entry door (left of the elephant picture) Middle of Cottage, on the rug in the Computer Area Middle of Cottage, on the couch Middle of Cottage, on the dresser to the left of the doors TV Area, beneath the three masks TV Area, in the urinal doll TV Area, next to the Crimson Permanent Bookshelf Area, Beneath the urinal doll Bookshelf Area, Above the white mask Bookshelf Area, on the shelf Bookshelf Area, On the radiator Bookshelf Area, On the pile of CD's (below and to the left of the mouth) If you've found cheese in a different location, let me know! -- The hand in the sofa keeps disappearing! -- Just click on it again. Everything you stacked on it will return. -- The screen just went blank! -- See section III. B. Act III Walkthrough *** The Cottage *** IMPORTANT NOTE: Save your game here at the beginning, and keep a saved game here! There is a fatal bug in the Cottage that may prevent you from progressing in the game in some situations. NOTE: There are 8 pieces of cheese in the cottage, and seven of them are located randomly in open areas throughout the Computer Area, TV Area, Middle, and Bookshelf Area. You need to collect the cheese as you run into it over the course of this area. If you can't find all seven by the end of the section, see "Where's the cheese?" above.
