Solution to Hugo's House of Horrors: SO! You have pulled out all your hair and have completely run out of ideas, so have decided to cheat. Ok, I would have also had it been available. Really, Hugo is a great game with more than enough challenge for most people. I hope this will help some of you out there. This file only contains hints. If you wish to totally wimp out, consult the "last" resort file, which contains exactly what you should do. ANYWAY- 1)Outside:Don't even bother to try to get anywhere else except inside the house. How do you get in? Well, there is a very nice hollow pumpkin right in front of you. It's not there for decoration. 2)Front room:First of all, its pretty obvious that you need to take the candle. Secondly, go over to the door near the stairs and take a look. You may find something useful. (Don't use this stuff yet, because you could regret it. 3)Lab:Don't worry about doc, he's not out to get you. Follow instructions, because the little problem that they gives you enables you to get behind the glass door and grab the "bung"(only useful later in the game). Once you've got the bung, you have to get back to normal. Get back in the box and tell Igor to press some buttons for a while. 4)Bathroom:Nothing here-just look at the mirror and remeber what it says. 5)Bedroom:It is a mask, not a head. 6)Kitchen:Don't spend any time with the broom. It's stuck there for the game. In fact, you're not going to find anything here. 7)Dining Room:REMEMBER-When in Transylvania, do as the Transylvanians do. If you don't look like them, you're as good as dead. Talk to the butler, and don't eat anything, you might need it. 8)Back Yard:Use the number you saw earlier to get in the shed. After floundering around for a while, you should be able to find the object there. Other than that, there is nothing else. 9)Dog's Room:OK, here's where it get's fast-paced. Before you go in the room, make sure you are ready to feed the dog, and QUICKLY, or he will eat you. Also, make sure you keep your distance! Once the dog is happily consuming his chow, look under the rug for a trap door. Gee, it must be rusty! How do we fix such things? Once you've gotten it open, go on down, and don't worry about your mask. Penelope would probably freak if she saw you like that anyway. 10)Basement:YOU'VE FOUND HER! Uh...maybe not. If you walk around for a while, you'll eventually find you're next challenge. 11)Bat Cave:Bats "see" with a sort of SONAR. Here's where you may want to use that old thing you found on the second screen. 12)Mummy Room:OH BOY. This was not an easy one. It took me quite a while to figure this one out, and chances are, this is where you got stuck. OK. First, in the Batcave you've got to get ready to get the gold in the mummyroom, since you can't finish the game without it. Then, you need to go over, get the gold, and get back to the bat cave before the mummy gets you. Then if you have time, tick off the bats again, so they don't get you. Next, you have to go back in and go past the first rock and turn right as quickly as possible. If you do it right, the mummy will get stuck trying to get past the rock. Then you can leisurely walk into your next challenge. 13)Lake:Look! A nice boat! Fix it with another little object you may have forgotten about, get in, make sure nothing is impeding its progress, and shove off! What's this? A 200 year old dude blocking your path? (Come on, like a young man can't push aside someone who is 200 years old.) But anyway, youre going to have to answer his riddles. What was the hobbit's first name? Well, if you know anyone who has read Tolkien, that will be an easy one. Where did Aslan come from? Well, he's not from Earth. Try looking up a novel by C.S. Lewis called The -, the -, and the Wardrobe. Who invented Dracula? Well, who WROTE Dracula? Next riddle-the key word is GARGLE. Roy Roger's dog? Ask your parents. But if they weren't allowed to watch TV when they grew up, the answer is an object that the Lone Ranger had silver ones of. Finally, if you can't get this one, you need your head checked (or you are too honest for your own good.) 14)Guard Room:I doubt they pay him well, even for such a boring job. 15)Congrats! You have won! Now you can sleep at nights and become less tense, and everyone will love you for it. Aren't you glad you downloaded this? Anyway, I hope I have been of some assistance, and that it wasn't necessary for you to resort to the "Ultra Cheat" doc. Hugo is really a great game as far as shareware goes. I encourage all to register their copy, so that maybe Mr. Grey can continue producing high-quality share ware games. Slater for now. Anthony Tamburello
