Nancy Drew LIGHTS,CAMERA,CURSES - WALKTHROUGH
by Petra R. Elster

Hi, this walkthrough is written assuming the player
will find the listed objects on his own and is able to
understand the instructions given to him by the game.
It does not explain every-little-thing that happens
in the game, when it happens, where it happens or why.
It does not contain diagrams, charts or explanations
on how to play the minigames.

It simply lists how the objects in the game should be
paired up and the sequence that works best.
Also, it contains the correct answers to all the
dialogs.

Thats all you really need to beat the game and see the
special ending.

Have fun!

THE END

Thank you Thank you PetraElster, the last puzzle just about did me in. I printed the screen and tried everything, I guess I really didn't try everything because I never did find the solution. You have saved the hair on my head because I was pulling it out with frustration.

Hi JAWJAB,

Glad I could help you and saved you some hair.

Hi Lauder- welcome to the forums!

Lizzie has done a marvelous job on the crows- has screen shots showing everything- you should check out this thread on how to get there- Titled Damn Crows

Lauder, The topic where you can find the info on the Crows photos is Here is the location of Crows and their matching items . There are instructions in that topic on how to find the pictures. Good luck with those awful crows.

I still cannot go any lower than 4 left and beleve me I have tried and tried. even with the sheet where they are located. now I noticed in herintractive the people who made the game in tech support has a patch and it said for the people who cannot get out of the crow game, but I am afraid to use it unless they send it personally. How would I get them to send it personally. thank you

Lauder,
Isn't the patch on Her Interactive for the Bird Inlay puzzle in the game Message in a Haunted Mansion. It's not for the crows game in Nancy Drew LCC.

There is an email address for Tech Support on the Her Interactive website. You might try writing to them and asking them if they can help you.

I hope you find a way to get through the Crows puzzle. Good Luck!

I am at the hotel. I've done everything in the lobby. When I try to get on the elevator, it keeps telling me that there's something odd about the poster and to check it out. I've done it several times and come up with "find the najahaje", but it won't let me get on the elevator. Keeps telling me to check out the poster.

Is it telling you to look at the poster or to look in the cabinet below the poster? That's were you get the hat you need for part of your disguise.

Thank you Petra for all the work you did on this game!!! Well I have just barely started this game and I am already stuck. I am in the wardrobe area and I am supposed to clean up the mess but I am unable to do ANYTHING! I have the magnifying glass and no matter where or how many time I click I get NOTHING! Do or anyone else out there know how to get past this screen, It is so discouraging to keep hoping they will make these games better. I think I probably have 5 of them and haven't finished any of them.

Help! how many of these stupid smoothies do I have to make, because I'm stuck. Thanks, Misha39

I can't figure out the last game at the end with the flash bombs and the walls. Any sugestions.

Thanks

Make sure that you dont explode bombs unless they are by rocks- if you do, you will get more rocks. Exploding a box wil give Ada more rocks.

I found the bombs at the end hard to master. I just kept doing the best I could and finally it would come out okay, although sometimes not until I'd played MANY times. (Isn't this the one that makes things easier as you go aong, or is that stReturn to Ravenhearst? Anyway,I think the game may just have mercy on you at some point!)

Be sure you control the LEFT hand bombs when you are playing against Eda. My first time through I guess I didn't read closely and it seemed intuitive to play on the right. Not that it makes much difference.
