I was interested in it, but they don't have a Mac version apparently.

I also tried to get a review copy (thinking I'd find a way to borrow a friend's computer) but never heard back from them. Ah well, was worth a shot.

There is a patch I believe. I played the game and really enjoyed it.

I am also stuck on the chinese calendar, second day. Wish I knew then what I know now I would have waited to buy it. Can anyone get me out of the second day?

The riddle with the chinese door is solved this way: Pan left, click on panel and see 2 wheels with the animals found in the Chinese calendar years.

Let's see, the advertisement has the dragon symbol on it. The center of the wheels has the yin yang symbol.

Turn the left wheel to have the dragon symbol on top.

Turn the right wheel to get the other half of the yin yang symbol that will match the one missing on the red design of the main green-red door. Hear a click.

Hope this helps

Hi, as I'm stuck on this door too (chinese symbols) and didn't find a patch yet I wondered if anybody get rid of the problem?
