Simon the Sorcerer 3D Hints
How do I find and catch Jar Nin's spirit?
1 of 13: It shouldn't be that hard to find Jar Nin -- he has already been making his ghostly presence known.
2 of 13: You have already heard some complaints about a ghost.
3 of 13: The barkeep at the Dog and Fruit Inn has told you about a ghost -- and where to find it.
4 of 13: The ghost is haunting upstairs, near your own room (room 4).
5 of 13: Simon will need to be quite close to Jar Nin to catch him.
6 of 13: You'll know Jar Nin is around when you can hear the ghost talking.
7 of 13: Just hearing Jar Nin isn't going to help Simon get close enough.
8 of 13: You'll also need to see him.
9 of 13: Someone told Simon, earlier in the game, that some guests had seen the ghost...
10 of 13: ...in a mirror.
11 of 13: Simon can look in the hall mirror to find the ghost. Stand Simon as close to the mirror as possible, then press "TAB" to see through Simon's eyes.
12 of 13: When you hear Jar Nin, a shadow will appear in the mirror, showing Simon where Jar Nin is.
13 of 13: Quickly walk Simon over to the area where Jar Nin seems to be standing and open the bottle.
