> Hi Sam, Sorry if this is a bit out of the usual, but have to ask.If one uses the option to 'delete saved game', does this delete only the game currently being played or all the games in The Early Years catagory? I'm sorely tempted to scrap The Spinning Stone and try to get a fresh start on it, but not if I have to go through all 12 of the 'manditory' ones again. Please advise. Thanks, Nora

If you delete your game, that will scrap everything you've done in The Early Years. As for "The Spinning Stone," starting over wouldn't even help you. Like a couple other games of its type, basically all you do is wander around until you stumble upon the solution. Starting over doesn't put you at any advantage whatsoever.

Actually The Spinning Stone requires you to do two things: find the big bad guy and kill him, then find the Spinning Stone. But same principle. You're just as well off where you are, wherever that is, as starting it over.

If you find yourself wandering in circles, try drawing a flowchart, where each box in the flowchart is a menu, and arrows are options that take you from one box to another.

Don't ignore the non-movement options. Pick the options that explore the area you're in.
