The Hint Button

[tastydelicacy]

Sometimes when I'm playing a scene, there's an object that's near the hint button, so I press it, then a hint comes up instead of me being able to press the object. I know that you could like maximize the picture to press it but then it'll waste my time. Hope this problem is addressed thanks! :D

TL has asked for feedback on this issue. Please report the scene and the object that is causing you problems!


We have temporarily removed the Glasses from Case 4, Lucky's Pawn Shop and the Ace of Hearts from Case 3, Dressing Room. We may bring them back in a different location that's away from the Hint button. Please let me know if you encounter any other Scenes with a similar issue. Thanks!

[tastydelicacy]

Okey dokey thanks a bunch!!

Okay, in Case 2, scene Subway Terminal, the object being blocked by the Hint Button is the glove. Thanks!

[MiniLaura]

hmmm, I don't have a problem clicking the glove. But I'm using an iPad. Maybe it's harder to click on a phone?

In any case, I'll flag this over...

I am on iPhone 5s and I can click the glove. My issue is the rat located bottom right.

The rat is annoying, can't get it without zooming in which takes up valuable time on the timed level!

[FrozenTurtle]

Thanks for the reports! I've forwarded this to the game team to take a look.

These items have been temporarily removed from the scene on iPhone/iPod devices only. Thanks again!

I find by closing in on the scene (put 2 fingers on the screen and close them together to zoom in) access to objects obscured by the bar and hint button is made easier :-)

The beer bottle and can at biker bar always activate hint on my iPhone 4

Zoom in on the scene as you can manoeuvre the scene to get the items you require.
Slide finger and thumb together on the screen to zoom in and slide them apart to zoom back out. It's also good or finding really small or well hidden items.

Case 6, runway backstage scene. The sunglasses are right near the hint button. Twice I have used gems for an item I knew exactly where it was. Please move to the right a bit. Cheers

[nuttyangel_69]

Can no one zoom in on the scene on their phone?!
Zoom in and items obscured by bottoms and bars become accessible!

Case 4: I often get a hint when I think I've hit the purse in lucky's pawn shop.

Case 5: the propane tank in the body shop is directly behind the hint button and it slows me down to enlarge the screen to tap it safely.

[sweetypies97]

Nutty angel 69, zooming slows you down and when you're trying to tap 50 items zooming is often the difference between success or failure.

[nuttyangel_69]

You don't have to get the 50 items to complete the scene! It just gives you the most points! Yes it's good to get every single item but you can still get over 1mil points by getting nearly all of them. It's not like you don't get any points at all if you only get 49 items.
Use your common sense.

On case #5, bikers bar, the hint button is right on the beer bottle and the can. I use the mini iPad and I hit the hint button every time 13286
