Walkthrough for "My Angel", by Jon Ingold (c) 2000
---------------------------------------------------
This is a walkthrough for one possible game of MY ANGEL; but most of the scenes have several possible paths through them. So if you're consulting this walkthrough because you're stuck in a certain scene, this may well not be of any help at all. However, in most cases, you shouldn't get stuck - if you are; I'd advising asking Angela for help, or looking around more closely; as these will usually solve your problem.
Further, a few of the puzzles are optional. Solutions are included in this walkthrough, but you may prefer to try and solve them by yourself.
Please remember - it is not possible to put the game into a position where you can't complete it. You can, however, block yourself off from solving optional puzzles.
At the starting screen, choose your mode. NOVEL mode with the following sequence of moves will generate quite a respectable story, with only a tiny bit of repetition and a flow to the paragraphs. You may want to turn on ALTERNATE mode from the menu so as to make it easier to follow.
Part I - Within
As the story starts, you awaken in the top of a hay barn. "She" is calling you, and she's in a hurry.
Firstly, let's set the scene a little.
-Examine yourself
-Examine pendant
-Touch it
-Take bag
-Look in it
-Examine the food
-Look
-Examine ladder
-Smell
-Look through door
Now we're outside, and here she is! So let's say hello:
-Kiss her
-Examine angela
-Wheeze
Note: this may seem a very random verb, and it is. But it's not important to the game, so I don't think it matters.
-Angela, hello
-Look around
-Take the left path
The game suggests conversing, and so we shall. But we'll have to find out how, first:
-Ask angela about forest
-Think
-Think about Angela
-Think about braf
And now we're in a brief flashback.

And another flashback:

And we arriver at the river - our first obstacle. There are several ways across; here's the easiest:

-Touch pendant
Oh - best hurry!
-Look
-Untie painter

No luck here, it seems.
-Look in trees
-Think about mob
-Swim
The river, though, has it fair share of dangers.
-Examine foot
What's this? Could be useful:
-Examine knife
-Examine bag
..but it doesn't come without a price, it seems. And then - a snake!
-Examine snake

-Stab the snake with the knife
-Stab snake
-Swim
As if that wasn't enough, your pursurers have caught up with you.

-Examine tube
-Look in it
-Follow wall
-Walk

Phew - just got away in time! Now, you're feeling hungry - perhaps the food's still okay.
-Eat the food
..or maybe not. But - a stroke of luck!
-Examine bushes
-Take fruit
-Eat fruit
-Examine blue berries
-Examine red berries
..so how are we going to work out which is safe to eat?
-Look
-Examine ruins
-Search stones
-Examine bird

-Feed berries to bird
Is it worth taking a chance? Probably!
