I have decided not to allow websites other than Gamefaqs (www.gamefaqs.com),
IGN (faqs.ign.com) & Gamespot (www.gamespot.com) to host my FAQs from now on.
Please don't ask, because I will not grant permission. It's just that too many
sites don't keep their version of my FAQ up to date which makes for a lot of
hassle in my mailbox.
So if anyone sees this FAQ on any site other than those mentioned above, please
let me know and I will take care of the situation, thanks.
Just to make things crystal clear for some people, this FAQ is not to appear
anywhere at the following URLs:

If you collect three paper hints you get the solution for the current stage.
If you fall too far you lose a life so keep that in mind.
From the pause menu you can restart the stage at the cost of a life, or reset
the game completely.
After each case is over you get to play a bonus round, basically you try to get
as many extra lives as you can before time runs out.
Ashley (green) is used to flick switches and pick up and throw the dog (Clue).
Mary-Kate (blue) is used to boost people to higher levels, she also jumps high.
Clue (dog) can be thrown or used as a platform and can swim if needed.

For a little while now I've had a paypal link in all my FAQs at the very bottom
here. Mainly as a small experiment since a few other FAQ authors have also had
the same idea.
I had a few people email me before I put this link in because they wanted to
send money, so it's here for those people.
I've been getting cases of energy drinks and making some excellent progress on
a few FAQs & maps.
If you don't want to send money or can't then send me an email, it's nice to
hear what people thought about my work and there's always room for improvement.
My email address and paypal address for those that want to contribute are both
