Fable Hints

'Use' and 'Give'

  • You often employ inventory items differently upon animate and inanimate objects in the game.
     
    In general, when there are inanimate objects (doors, tables, rocks, etc.) you can only Use inventory items upon them.  You can sometimes also Use inventory items on living creatures (people, animals, demons, etc.) as well, but more often you have to Give them the item instead.

    When, as frequently happens, you forget, or mix up these two actions, you get stuck!
