Copyright information VERSION HISTORY 1.1: 2nd Apr, 2006 (Format update) 1.0: 22nd Feb, 2004 (First version) =============================================================================== 1. Introduction =============================================================================== In the second game of the Hugo trilogy, Hugo and his girlfriend Penelope travel to Europe to stay in the cottage of Hugo's Uncle Horace. As they make their way upstairs to the bedroom, Penelope goes to sleep and wakes up to find that Hugo has disappeared. She hears a noise outside and looks through the keyhole to see Hugo's Uncle getting stabbed by a mysterious person. And so it's up to her to piece together the puzzle of the murder, and to find which of the many strange occupants of the house murdered Uncle Horace. Hugo 2 is a much longer and far more difficult adventure game than the original title. Much of the game play is based in the huge cottage, though other areas include a stroll through a giant hedge maze, a journey through dangerous fields filled with snakes and bees, as well as travelling to a mysterious planet in a phone booth. Overall, this is a very enjoyable addition to the series which has the same fun and interesting atmosphere as the original. =============================================================================== 2. Walkthrough =============================================================================== COTTAGE The game starts in the entrance hall of the cottage. Walk up the steps and move to the door at the right side of the second floor. "Open door" to enter the bedroom. Penelope will walk toward the bed and go to sleep, leaving Hugo to explore the bedroom. Walk to the yellow book in the bookcase and "get book" to open a secret passage. Hugo will go through, leaving Penelope alone in the bedroom. When she wakes up, walk over to the door and "look through keyhole" to see Uncle Horace arguing with someone, which ends with him getting stabbed. Penelope will faint at this point. When she recovers, walk to the yellow book on the bookcase and "get book" to go through the same secret passage that was discovered by Hugo earlier. "Talk bird". "Use phone". "Open drawer" and "get matches" that fall out. Walk to the dumb waiter and "get in dumb waiter" to ride down to the first floor of the cottage. "Open cupboard" and "get garlic". Walk north through the doorway to exit the cottage. OUTSIDE Walk east to arrive in an area with some venus fly traps and a magnifying glass. Save the game at this point, as moving successfully through the venus fly traps can be incredibly difficult. Start by tapping the down arrow key twice to move very slightly south. Now walk east until you pass the bottom-left fly trap, then walk south to stop at the border of the flowers. Walk east past the next two fly traps above, then walk north through the gap and west to the magnifying glass. "Get magnifier". Move back out of the venus fly trap maze the same way you came, and continue west to return to the area outside of the cottage. Walk south to see the gardner's shed. Walk east twice to see a bridge leading over a stream, with wild catnip plants growing at the side of the path. "Get catnip", then walk close to the left side of the bridge. "Drop matches", which will drop the matches on the path. If you attempt to cross the bridge while holding the matches, it's very likely that they will drop into the stream and be useless for the rest of the game. We'll need to cross this bridge later with the matches, but for now just leave them at the left side of the bridge. Walk east on the other side of the bridge to see some ferocious bees. When the bees start flying toward Penelope and the warning message appears, quickly walk west back to the previous area. Walk over the bridge and "get matches", then walk west twice and enter the gardner's shed. SHED After the gardner puts his pliers away, "eat garlic" and he will run out of the shed. Walk up to the panel and "push green button" to turn on the bug zapper in the area with the bees. "Press blue button" to open the gates leading to the hedge maze". Exit the shed, walk east and north to enter the hedge maze. HEDGE MAZE From the entrance of the maze, walk north. East. East. North. North. West. West. South. West. North. North. "Get gun". North.

OUTSIDE After leaving the maze, walk east to the area with the bridge. Now we do have to cross the bridge holding the matches, so make sure to save the game before attempting this. Start by walking across the lowest part of the bridge. As soon as Penelope puts a foot down, tap the up and then right arrow keys to make her move to the next section. Now just walk carefully over the top of the bridge until Penelope gets near the right side. Tap the down arrow key, followed by the right arrow key to make it across. Continue east to the next area. The bees will now be attracted to the bug zapper as it was turned on by using the green button in the gardner's shed. Walk east to the next area and wait for Penelope to hit the man from the first Hugo game. Continue east to the next area to find a snake which slithers its way toward Penelope. After it bites her, "drink bottle" to cure the snake bite. Walk along the top-right path to arrive in an area with a big white dog. "Get stick" and "throw stick" to make the dog leave his dog house. "Look in dog house". "Get dynamite" and walk west. After returning to the area with the snake, walk along the bottom-right path to arrive in an area with a phone booth. Walk into the phone booth and Penelope will call the police. She explains the situation and officer Higgins will agree to meet her in the cottage living room at 6PM. "Dial". "1-800-333-hugo" to transport to a the planet Retupmoc. RETUPMOC Quickly "shoot gun" to destroy the dalek and receive the screwdriver from Doctor Who. Walk back into the phone booth, then walk through the gate and go west to return to the area with the snake. OUTSIDE Walk west, then south to arrive in an area with a well. "Climb down rope" to climb down to the bottom of the well. WELL Walk over to the blocked passage at the right side of the cavern and "drop dynamite". "Light dynamite". Quickly walk left over to the rope and "climb rope" to climb out of the well before the explosion. "Climb down rope" to return to the bottom of the well and go through the newly opened passage to arrive in an area with three tunnels. Walk through the left tunnel first of all and "get lamp" near the rock. Walk east to the previous area and go through the middle tunnel to arrive in an area with a chasm. Start by walking down to the rocks at the bottom of the area and then walking right toward the chasm. Stop before reaching the chasm, tap down and then left to walk onto a hidden ledge. Now walk right over to the other side of the chasm and "get banana". Walk back over the hidden ledge and go west to return to the area with the three tunnels. Walk through the right tunnel and continue east to the area with the ladder. "Rub lamp" and "give banana to genie". Climb up the ladder to enter the store room of the cottage. "Look in mouse hole". "Open safe with screwdriver". "Read will". Walk west to enter the hall of the cottage. COTTAGE Walk through the top doorway to find the maid in the parlor. Walk through the right doorway to find the cat. "Rub catnip on bell". "Give bell to cat". Quickly walk west out of the room to return to the parlor and wait for the cat to ring the bell. When the maid exits the parlor, "open cupboard" to get the photo album. Walk east to the room with the cat and "get bell". Walk west twice to enter the kitchen, where the cook is holding a bloody knife. Her explanation for this is that she has just been preparing dinner for tonight. Walk back through the door on the right, south to the hall and then west to the section of the hall with the mirror. "Open door" at the left side of the mirror to meet Aunt Hester. Walk over to the table and say "yes" when Aunt Hester asks if Penelope would like some wine. "Read letter" on the table, then exit the room. "Open door" at the right side of the mirror to enter cousin Harry's room. "Talk Harry" and he will start laughing when told about Uncle Horace's murder. Exit the room and walk south to see officer Higgins walking into the living room. Enter the living room to find that all of the suspects have gathered there to find out who killed Uncle Horace. When asked whodunit, say "nobody". The game now returns to Hugo. "Get paper". "Read paper". "Get pencil". "Slide paper under door". "Push pencil through keyhole" to complete the game. =============================================================================== 3.
