but eventually, he becomes a friend.
004-Walkthrough
---------------------------------------------------------
The game begins with Nancy going to the Ryokan Hiei. She
arrives at the front desk, and a portrait breaks. Takae,
the grandmother at the ryokan, seems very upset about
this, and she leaves.
Miwako, the girl at the front desk, apologizes for her
grandmother and gives Nancy her room key, for Room #24.
Room 24 is on the second floor, and it is located on the
left, if you are standing at the front door to the
ryokan.
On the first floor on the left, you have the bath area,
where Nancy can take a bath in the hot springs. When you
try to go inside the baths, you meet Rentaro.
On the right, you have Takae's room (room 18). When you
go inside her room, you can take a lesson on calligraphy
from her. It's a simple lesson: simply fill in the lines
as indicated, and don't color outside of the lines. The
lines don't have to be perfect, though.
If you go straight, you reach the gardens. You can walk
around the gardens in a giant loop, and the gardens
connect to the rest of the ryokan. The wooden shed near
the bridge belongs to Rentaro.
When you leave the main room of the ryokan, Nancy gets a
phone call from her friends Bess Marvin and George Fayne.
Since this is the first day of the game, you should
probably take it easy. Go to the baths, and meet Rentaro.
Then, meet him in his shed in the garden and get some
puzzles from him. If you're a puzzle fan, you can solve
all his puzzles for some bonus conversations.
Rentaro has three types of puzzles for you: nongrams,
sudoku and renograms. Before this game is over, you will
have to solve a difficult nonogram puzzle and a difficult
sudoku puzzle. Solving the simpler puzzles that Rentaro
gives you is good practice for these.
After you solve Rentaro's first puzzle, you can return to
him and solve the portrait backing puzzle. This puzzle
has many solutions; you just want to move the pegs around
so no wires are overlapping. When you solve this puzzle,
you find a certificate signed by Savannah Woodham, who
says there are no ghosts in the Ryokan Hiei. You also
find a Japanese news article. Oddly enough, when you ask
one of the Japanese people here to translate it for you,
they will refuse to do so.
Well, that's enough for one day. Go back to Nancy's room,
in order to go to sleep.
Inside Nancy's room, you'll see that she has a folder
with information about the ryokan, as well as some
envelopes. The information talks about the various
locations you can visit in this game. These are Misawa
(where the ryokan is), Matsue (where the exposition that
Bess and George are attending is) and Kure (where the
pachinko parlor is). You can visit all these places by
taking the train.
Before you can take the train, though, you have to open
up the suitcase in Nancy's closet. Take the train pass,
as well as the Japanese-English dictionary. That'll come
in handy tomorrow.
The way to make Nancy go to sleep is by going to her
room, then setting the alarm clock on her phone for the
time you want her to wake up. Set the alarm clock to 7:00
PM, which is the next day. During the night, she sees the
shadow of the ghost who is haunting the ryokan.
When you leave Nancy's room on the second day of the
game, she gets a phone call from Bess and George. They
have just met Yumi, the older sister of Miwako. She works
at Matsue.
Nancy wants to see Yumi, so grab the train pass and the
dictionary from her suitcase in the closet, then leave
the ryokan. Go left to the station.
You now have a puzzle, trying to navigate the Japanese
train system. To get to Matsue from Misawa (the station
with the ryokan), you should go to Nagoya, Otsu, Aomori,
Kochi, Tochigi, Seto, Niigata, Fuji, Iga, then Matsue.
You only have to do this once; the game will
automatically remember your route once you take it.
At the Matsue station, Nancy finds a piece of paper about
puzzle boxes, which is a puzzle you'll find later on.
Inside Matsue, you can find a display about robot cats,
the door to the convention (which is shut), and the Bento
Box stand that Yumi runs. Talk to her.
First things first, Yumi forces Nancy to make a Bento
box. This is a puzzle! I recommend saving your game here,
because the puzzle is randomly determined. That way, if
you get stuck, you can reload the game for a different
puzzle.
Some people have had trouble with the Bento Box puzzles,
so I made a fifteen minute video of me doing nothing but
solving Bento puzzles, to give you an idea of how to
solve them:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhaEj4ibGqA
Basically, you have squares on the right. Those are all
squares that fit on the three-by-three Bento board. You
need to figure out how to arrange the squares on the
board, so they fit. A good strategy is to figure out
where the biggest pieces go, first.
There are nine pieces of Bento, made from three different
animals shapes and three different ingredients.
When you finish the Bento box puzzle, Yumi returns, and
you can talk to her about various things. No matter what,
Yumi tells you that she needs some more boxes, and she
gives Nancy the key to her apartment.
Once you're finished talking with Yumi, go to the train
station. Her apartment is in Kurume, so go to Iga, Kobe,
Miyazaki, Urawa and then Kurume.
Leave the train station to reach the apartment. Use the
key on the door to get inside. The boxes that Yumi wants
are on the counter, by the sink.
You have a few things you can look at in Yumi's
apartment, such as a spooky DVD, a letter from Yumi's
mother, and the computer.
The thing that you have to look at is a book by Savannah
Woodham, under a pillow on Yumi's bed. Pick it up and
read the book to find Savannah's phone number. Sadly, the
chapter of the book about the Ryokan Hiei is missing.
Nancy is going to have to do a few puzzles before she can
find the missing chapter.
Call Savannah. Her assistant answers the phone and hangs
up. He will hang up if you call again, as well. Call Bess
and George for help. Seeing as Savannah and Logan (the
assistant) are at the expo right now, they can probably
help.
Later on, you get a phone call from Bess and George, once
they have distracted the assistant.
For now, return to Matsue and talk to Yumi. She is happy
that you have her boxes, and she gives you a phone charm.
You can now talk to her about the things in her
apartment.
Ask about Yumi's outfit. She makes you do another bento
puzzle, then she gives you the password to the computer
in her apartment. With this password, you can go onto the
computer and use the avatar program.
Return to Yumi's apartment in Kurume. You should get the
phone call from Bess and George, saying they have
distracted Logan. Call Savannah again, and this time,
Nancy talks to Savannah herself.
Ask Savannah to translate the Japanese article for you,
because everyone else refuses to do it. Savannah says if
you mail it to Logan, she'll have him translate it. To
mail it to him, simply go to Nancy's room, take an
envelope out of the folder, and use the article on the
envelope. Give the envelope to Miwako at the front desk,
and she mails it for you.
If you ask Savannah about the book, she says she doesn't
have a copy.
Once the conversation with Savannah is over, return to
the ryokan and send the letter to Logan. Then return to
Yumi's apartment and check out the avatar program.
Go to the computer and select avatars. The password is in
the middle of the screen, then down a little bit. You can
make any avatar you want, and you can send them to a
specific phone number (Nancy's phone number is 523-555-
4399). You might as well make some avatars for your
various phone contacts.
Around this time, Logan will call Nancy, saying he got
the article in Japanese. He will translate it for you,
but he's not happy about it. Ask him for a copy of
Savannah's book. He has one, but he refuses to give it to
you.
That's enough exploring outside the Ryokan Hiei for now,
so return to the ryokan. There are a few things that you
can do here, such as talk to Miwako, Rentaro and Takae
about various topics, including Yumi.
You can take origami lessons from Takae. The drawer in
this room has a book about origami folds. Use them to
figure out which of Takae's pictures go with which folds.
The fish is the fold with the white bottom. The eagle is
the fold with the white top, and the one in the
upper/left is the fold with the larger white top. The
spider in the bottom/middle is the fold with legs
sticking out on the sides. The crane is the fold with
wings that go up, and the frog is the one with legs that
go up and down.
You should also visit the baths, because they're open on
the second day of the game. Actually, they are open on
every other day. A creepy scene occurs when Nancy first
enters this area.
Inside the baskets on the wall, you can get a pachinko
card, for use in the pachinko parlor that we haven't been
to yet. We'll head to the pachinko parlor in a little
while, but first...
Go to Nancy's room and set the alarm for 1 AM. That's
when the front desk closes. Go there, and examine the
computer. It is password protected.
If you try to grab the box here, Suki will stop you. It
looks like she is in guard mode. Call Bess and George,
seeing as they're at an expo where robotic cats are on
display. George says she'll try to figure out how to get
the robot cat out of guard mode.
Skip ahead to the next day. While George is
investigating, let's play pachinko! Now that we have the
card for the parlor, we might as well use it.
The pachinko parlor is at Kure. Go to the train station
and go to Nagoya, Otsu, Aomori, Ube, Sakai and Kure to
get there.
Bess and George will call while you're at the pachinko
parlor. George met the creator of the Suki cats. He wants
her to solve a difficult Sudoku puzzle, before he tells
her the password to turn off the robot cat.
At the pachinko parlor, you can go to three machines. Use
the card on the slot for 50 balls, and click on the
yellow dial to shoot out a ball. The longer you hold down
the mouse button, the father the ball shoots out. Every
time a ball goes in one of the five black holes, you get
points.
The machine on the right gives out more points than the
other two machines. You can play as often as you want to.
Try to get over 1400 points.
Also here at the pachinko parlor, we have a camera booth.
You can print out the various photos that Yumi has sent
Nancy here.
One of the prizes here in the parlor is a comic book that
Nancy is interested in. Use your winnings to purchase it.
It talks about EVP, which is a technique some ghost
hunters use. Once Nancy gets a copy of Savannah Woodham's
book, she will be able to do EVP.
Let's work on getting Savannah's book now. Call Savannah
again, and Logan picks up. He says he likes Bess, and he
wants to ask her out on a date. He wants Nancy's help,
because Nancy is Bess' friend and she knows what Bess
likes.
Nancy says she'll help, as long as he gives her the copy
of the book. Logan reluctantly agrees.
Call Logan again, to see if he has found a copy of the
book. He did, and it's ready to go. Before he sends it to
you, though, he wants to know what kind of clothes Bess
likes. Go to Yumi's apartment at Kurume and create an
outfit on the avatar program. Send it to Savannah's
number, 303-555-4478.
Logan gives you a text, saying thank you. Call him again,
and he says that he will bring the book on his date with
Bess, and he'll give it to her then.
Return to the Ryokan Hiei. By this time, the Sudoku
Puzzle should be waiting for Nancy at the front desk.
Miwako will give it to you. You want to complete the
puzzle, then put it in an envelope, then give it to
Miwako.

Skip ahead to the next day, to give Bess and George time
to do things. Bess has her date with Logan, and George
meets with the creator of the Suki cats. Bess gets the
book from Logan, and George gets the commands.
Leave the ryokan and come back, to get the book. Call
George, to get the commands. If enough time has not
passed, these things don't happen.
Now is a good time to take Takae's final lesson in
Japanese culture. We have a tea ceremony, where you have
to remember the names of items. From left to right, they
are...
Kensui Furo Futaoki Natsume
Chakin Chawan Chasen Hishaku Chashaku
Once that's done, set the alarm for 1 AM, so you can get
to the front desk once it's closed. George says "Mate" is
the command to make Suki go to sleep, so tell that to
Suki. Then, grab the box that Suki is guarding.
It's a puzzle box, just like the one described in the
flyer we found at a train station.
Junior Mode Solution:
Highlight all slabs, and move them down.
Move the middle slab left.
Move all slabs up.
Move the bottom slab right.
Move the middle slab left.
Move the top/right slab right.
Senior Mode Solution:
Highlight all the slabs and move them down.
Move the middle slab left.
Move all slabs up.
Move the bottom slab right.
Move the middle slab left.
Move the top/right slab right.
Move the top/left slab left.
Move the middle slab right.
Inside the box is a tile piece and an envelope with the
password to the computer. Nancy needs to figure out a way
to open the envelope without anyone knowing how she did
it. In other words, she needs to use steam to open the
envelope.
I'll discuss opening the envelope later on, because you
can't open it right now.
The tile piece is for the baths. Skip to the next day if
you can't get in the tile area. Then, go inside the
baths. Look at the tiles on the shower wall.
With the tile you just found, you have all the tiles
here. Use the tiles from the lower/left in the area
around the peephole in the middle. Working clockwise from
the left-hand corner, which has the square piece, the
various pieces are the yellow triangle, blue triangle,
white triangle, green piece, brown piece, and red piece.
Nancy will look in the peep hole to see Miwako and
Rentaro, arguing. They are in a second bath area, it
seems.
Talk to Rentaro. If you haven't already, read the comic
book from the pachinko parlor to learn about EVP. Read
Savannah's book to learn about EVP, as well. Reading both
of those things lets you ask Rentaro about EVP. He will
give you a recorder.
Rentaro also wants Nancy to buy a collar for Suki, from
the pachinko parlor. That way, Miwako will forgive him,
after their big fight in the baths. Go to the pachinko
parlor at Kure, and purchase this collar. Then, return to
the ryokan and give it to Rentaro. He leaves to give it
to Miwako. When this happens, sneak into his area and
take the Star Card from his desk.
Now for EVP first. Savannah's book tells you where to do
EVP, such as by the fire pit or in the baths. The place
that you want to record is by the cherry tree.
Skip ahead to 1 AM, when Rentaro leaves the ryokan. Go
inside his shack and use the EVP device to listen to the
recording by the cherry tree. It recorded an argument
between Miwako and Yumi, and it sounds like Yumi threw
something into the water here.
Go to the water. Specifically, head to the area under the
bridge. You find what Yumi threw: the key to Room 18.
That's the room where cultural lessons take place.
Without this key, you can't open the envelope with the
computer password on it.
Nancy also notices some rocks here, under the bridge.
This is a puzzle. If you've read the book in the room
with the front desk, you learned about rocks.
There are four rocks in total. You need to find all of
them. Two are by lanterns, and one is by a tree. The
fourth one is by the gray statue thing, in the middle of
the pond. If you go to the garden by means of the front
desk area, to reach the statue, just go forward.
The square stone goes over the heart. The tallest stone
goes over the person. The triangle stone goes over the
fire. The stone with an edge sticking out at the top/left
goes on the ox. The final stone, with horizontal lines on
it, goes in the top/right.
Solving the stone puzzle gets you an origami puzzle.
Go to Takae's room, using the Room 18 card. Open the
drawer which has the origami book in it, then open it up
to start the puzzle.
1. Mountain fold.
2. Fold to front.
3. Fold to front.
4. Fold unfold.
5. Fold to back.
6. Push and invert.
There is a red card on the floor of Room 18. Make sure to
pick it up before leaving.
Solving the origami puzzle gives you a hint about bamboo.
Return to the gardens, and look at the deer scarer, which
is the thing that makes a tapping sound. It's near the
bridge, and it is made of bamboo.
We want to open it, but we lack a tool. Go to Rentaro's
shed and take a screwdriver. Then return and use it on
the bamboo. Nancy will get part of a giant nonogram
puzzle.
Also in Room 18, you can find a pot of tea, inside the
cabinet. This doesn't happen until you finish the tea
ceremony with Takae. Take the teapot to the front desk,
and put it over the fire pit. Use the envelope with the
computer password on the steam, after waiting for a bit.
Then, remove the teapot.
The password is Takakawa. Go back to Room 18 and use the
calligraphy books to learn how to write that in Japanese.
Then, go to the computer and press the correct keys for
"ta", "ka", "ka" and "wa". Then press enter.
The computer has a list of guests. Read it all the way
through, to learn that certain rooms are never rented
out, such as Room 33.
Here at the front desk, we have the Krolmeister Security
System. Using the red card from Takae's room, we can
solve this puzzle. You want to use the cards to recreate
the patter.
Insert the blue, red, green, yellow and purple cards,
from left to right. Then, rotate the cards as necessary
to duplicate the pattern onscreen. You end up getting the
key to all rooms that end in 8 or 9.
With this key (and the Star Card you get from Rentaro's
shack once you give him Suki's collar), we can examine
Room 33, the one that isn't let out to customers.
Go to Room 39, then open it. Turn to side, and you'll see
that the wall between Rooms 39 and 37 has a star on it.
Use the Star Card to open up this door. Keep opening up
the walls with the Star Card, until you reach Room 33.
Nancy is trapped inside the room, once she enters. Puzzle
time! Look at the balcony. The door is locked with a
puzzle. The way to solve this puzzle is to color in all
the blank spots, so that all six slices of the picture
are exactly the same.
For example, the piece in the middle of the puzzle is red
in once slice, so you know that it is red in all six
slices. The square above the red piece is blue in once
slice, so you know that it is blue in all six slices.
Figure out the colors of everything and fill in those
colors as quickly as possible to open the door.
Skip ahead to the next day, if necessary. If you haven't
already, call Savannah and ask her about the room she had
when she was at the ryokan. She was in, you guessed it,
Room 33. There was a hidden passageway in the room.
Return to Room 33, and call Savannah again. She says the
passageway was controlled by a bird. Press the wooden
bird in the carving on this room to find this hidden
passageway. Note that you have to look at the registry
after Savannah says to find out which room they don't let
to customers, otherwise, you can't ask Savannah about the
passageway in the room.
The passageway leads downstairs, to the baths area that
Rentaro and Miwako had an argument inside of. Explore
this hidden area.
Finding the hidden area causes Yumi to send you a
picture. If you don't have all seven pictures by now, try
calling everyone, as well as talking to everyone about
everything. Some of the pictures are triggered by
conversations. Other pictures are triggered by solving
Rentaro's puzzles.
When you have all seven pictures, Nancy will talk about
printing them out. Go to the pachinko parlor at Kure, and
use the photo booth. Print out all the pictures.
What you want to do here is arrange the pictures, so the
purple lines form Japanese numbers.
If Y is Yumi, B is Bess, G is George and R is Rentaro,
the pictures are:
[Y] [B]
[Y] [G] [YB] [RY]
[GB]
Go to Yumi and ask her about this. She is happy that you
figured out her puzzle. She forces Nancy to do another
thing of bento, then she forces Nancy to stay in her
apartment.
Yumi is being forceful for a reason. Under the frog on
her shelf, you have a password. Insert the numbers seen
in Yumi's pictures. This will give you numbers for a
nonograms puzzle.
Return to Room 33, and go through the hidden passageway.
You have two nonogram puzzle things: one from the bamboo
stick, and one from Yumi's room.
Solve this nonogram puzzle. It's pretty tough. The X's
indicate tiles that aren't marked, and the brown pieces
are the tiles that the numbers correspond with. In both
Junior and Senior Mode, you have a picture of a fox as
the solution.
The secret compartment behind the puzzle opens. Read the
letter inside. It seems that Kasumi hoped her daughters,
Yumi and Miwako, would work together to solve the puzzle.
Take the sword here, and the ghost appears. It knocks
Nancy underwater. Use the sword to cut the ropes of the
net. You want to create breaks in the net, so you can run
your mouse from the top of the screen to the bottom,
without crossing over any ropes.
Examine the ghost once you're free. Once you do, you
learn who the culprit is.
Before you can confront the culprit, though, you have to
go to Takae and talk to her about everything. She finally
explains what happened, the night Kasumi died.
Miwako is gone, as is Rentaro. Go to Rentaro's shack to
find two inventions. First is the recorder, which can
connect to cell phones. Rentaro mentioned this earlier
today. Second is a door-o-matic, which opens every door
in the ryokan.
There is a pink note on the table. Use the dictionary on
it to find out that Rentaro is in Room 33.
Go there. Use the door-o-matic on the door, then save
your game. Go inside to talk to Rentaro.
There are two puzzles here. First, you need to figure out
how to stop Rentaro from escaping. That's simple enough!
Use the door-o-matic, and the door will shut, preventing
his escape.
Second, you need to figure out which item to use. Pick
the recorder that can connect to computers. Pick a
channel to record on, and Nancy records the conversation
with Rentaro. She then threatens to send the recorded
conversation to everyone.
You can choose whether to let Rentaro confess to Miwako.
The ending is slightly different, depending on which

---------------------------------------------------------
This section of the guide is a short to-do list, of
sorts. It lists the various puzzles in the game, and how
they are interrelated. You can do things in any order you
want to.
•Find Nancy's room. You need to get her train
ticket/Japanese dictionary from the suitcase in her
closet. This allows her to travel to different places,
like Kure and Matsui.
•Meet Takae and take her cultural lessons on calligraphy,
origami and tea. Each lesson takes place on a different
day.
•Examine Miwako's cat after 1:00 AM to learn that Suki is
in protection mode. Call Bess and George about this, and
they will give you a monster Sudoku puzzle to solve.
Solving this will let you get past Suki. When you do
this, you get access to a tile from the baths and a
sealed envelope with the computer password.
•Use the tile from the baths in the baths area in order
to see a cutscene starring Miwako and Rentaro. After
this, Rentaro asks you to get him a prize from the
pachinko parlor at Kure.
•At the pachinko parlor, buy a comic book to learn about
EVP.
•After the first day of the game, meet Yumi and talk with
her about everything. She will start sending pictures to
Nancy, and she sends Nancy to her apartment, where Nancy
gets the phone number for Savannah Woodham.
•Contact Savannah Woodham. The direct approach doesn't
work, so call Bess and George for help. Then, play
matchmaker with Logan and Bess to get a copy of
Savannah's book from Logan.
•Once Nancy gets Savannah's book and reads it, she learns
where to do EVP. So, read Savannah's book and solve the
EVP puzzle. This results in Nancy finding the key to
Takae's room.
•After finding the key in the gardens, you can do the
rock puzzle (and a few more puzzles) to get half of the
super nonograms puzzle. This can only be done if Nancy
knows origami.
•If Nancy knows about tea, she can then use the key to
Granny's room to steal Granny's tea kettle, and use the
tea kettle to open the sealed envelope (from Miwako's
desk). Nancy can now go onto the computer and see which
rooms in the ryokan are never rented out to guests...in
particular, room #33.
•Open up the Krolmeister Security Thingy near the front
desk, using the red card found in Granny's room. This
gives you the key that opens all rooms which end in 8 or
9.
•Using the 8 or 9 key, in conjunction with the star card
taken from Rentaro's shed, go to room #33 and solve the
puzzle that arises there.
•Call Savannah for info about room #33. Then return there
and go the hidden passageway. The hidden passageway
contains the super nonograms puzzle. Sadly, Nancy only
has half of this puzzle--the half she got from solving
the rock puzzle.
•Nancy needs the second half of the super nonograms
puzzle. Once she gets seven photos from Yumi, she can
solve the photo puzzle, which eventually leads to her
getting the second half of the super nonograms puzzles.
•Using both halves of the super nonogram puzzle, solve
the super nonogram puzzle in the hidden passageway.
•This causes a series of puzzles that Nancy has to solve
in order to catch the villain.
