Cannot hand the water bottle over. Have uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing. Cannot play any further, What is the point.

Clare, did you fill the water bottle with water?

One early scene which had an error, was while looking at the contents inside the buss which takes place after you have left the ship after having left the island (or 3rd set of scenes if you prefer).
One of the three feathers which it asks the player to find, is on a box that simply won't let itself be clicked. At least not until you've got everything else and clicked the whole area again and again and again, until finally, it completes that hidden object scene. Plus there might be a problem with the paddles next to the last feather but I can't remember exactly. The important thing is that perseverance pays off here.
This by the way I found to be a common problem with many items throughout the game needing to be clicked multiple times before the object finally says "alright, alright, ya found me".
There was also a few mislabelled items near the end of the game which a user should be aware.
2 is a hunter and a cup is an umbrella.
Now I don't wish to scare people away from trying the game. It was good. There were just a few issues.

Mark, Sometimes actions in a hidden object area give clues that are only valid the second time you visit it.

Rufus, Not exactly sure what you mean by that as its been now two years since I've played the game but if you take into account all the other comments about problems, I'd say the issue is solely game related. Having played a hundred of such games, I'm well versed in the mechanics and would be somewhat surprised if I had been playing the scenes in this game with anything less than a full understanding of their workings.

Have downloaded twice, unzipped and tried to install, the wrap gets clearance (yes I know to turn off AVG for games from GGotD) but the game fails to install, in fact install fails to initialize. Does not bode well for the quality of materials put out by this developer if the game won't even install. Hard to be positve this way!
Please do let me know if there is some other way to get this to work, I was looking forward to trying it out.

Some buggs. You can't pick upp the Trident and give it to Neptun and you can't pick upp the pump and fill the inflated beach ball.

Ok Win x64 Pro on D: drive. My initial take pre d/l was cheap price, Toomky is iffy quality, HOG is an old concept now. But turns out to worth shot fans.
Just did bit tutorial & a hog page. Casket turns out to be a clutch/jewelry box found by random clicks (no penalty or timer). Now & then a click might miss like I hit the key in bag & never took (needs 2x click sometimes), but when hit Hint (refills fast) the tip was to bag & click key once was accepted.
Overall 8/10 for casual fans. Pros might see 7/10 for 'raw' look. Not as fun as recent Fall of the New Age but less 'work'. Will keep, yrmv. Thanks.

Gave this a thumbs up, but tried to change it, after attempting to play. Yes...not my sort of game, but that aside, I found the play very slow, and dull, and not intuitive at all. After trying to get water for a half an hour, I just gave up and uninstalled. Yesterdays game is enjoyable, and silly, but a good time spender. The zombies just didn't do it for me today, but thanks for letting me try it.

I tried to install but when it tried to connect to this site to verify it says "Failed to connect. Try again later"
Is there a problem on your end?
Thanks, looking forward to this one.

I don't have any antivirus running. I tried rebooting and also tried another download of the game. Still can't connect to this site to confirm. I'll keep trying throughout the day.

Sorry, that should have been Toomkygames.com.

Downloaded & installed fine on Windows 7, 64-bit. It opens up in full screen and you can't see your cursor. You need to navigate over to settings to be able to click on the Windowed version. You may have to set that a second time after you create your profile.
Be aware that some of the items asked for in Hidden Object scenes may not be called what you're used to. For example, in the first HO scene, a "Vacuum Flask" is a "Thermos Bottle" :-/ There's no voice acting in this, just background music. It's a bit dull so far. I've made it past the cogwheel puzzle so far. I "did" run the Tutorial, but there's an ancient-looking object in the lower left corner of the screen with symbols, but the game doesn't tell you anything about it, what it's for or anything. Hopefully, it will eventually. The graphics are so-so..maybe they're appropriate for a zombie story. ;-)
It looks like an okay game, just not too exciting so far. And be aware that your mouse pointer doesn't always change when you mouse over an area.

Downloaded and installed no problem (Windows 10) Looks like just my sort of game. The graphics are clear, and the scenes are not so dark and gloomy as they often are in this genre. Thank you!

Here, W10 64bit, the game installed without a hitch. It's a new game for me and I really like it. It's challenging enough, with nice graphics and enough clues when needed. Enjoy your Sunday (at last we got some rain here, well.... a drop and a half) and stay safe.

After downloading files, isn't possible instal game. Where is problem?
Save | Cancel
Majk, you didn't give us much information. Do you get the game's "setup program" screen, or not? If not, probably the GGOTD security wrapper software is being "stopped" by your AV. I use avast! and I know I have to turn its Behaviour Shield off for a few minutes to allow the GGOTD security wrapper/"activation" to work and for the game's own installer/setup screen to appear. Obviously (?) I turn the Shield ON again once that setup screen appears! You may need to do something similar on your PC, but you didn't say which AV you're using.
If there is a problem during the game's own setup program (NOT the GGOTD "connecting/activated" process) then please say what happened or didn't happen, any messages, etc.
Hope that helps.

Majk, I had no issues under Windows XP. The usual advice is to disable the antivirus. My AVG antivirus does understand that the files downloaded from this site do not pose a threat, and you may not disable it.
Save | Cancel
Majk, check if your A/V program is blocking the Setup program from running.
Save | Cancel
Majk, I always have to reboot in Safe Mode (or turn off my virus protection software) before I can even download the game. So, I download & install before I go back to full mode.
Save | Cancel
Majk,
Very often your antivirus program gives a false positive to the wrapper which protects the download after the 24 hrs. Deactivate it for the short process of activating the game and it will install. Don't forget to reactivate afterwards.

Majk, It will not run on Win XP
