Simon the Sorcerer 3D Hints

What do I do with the candies?

  • 1 of 20: Look at them closely.
  • 2 of 20: One of them has "chase me" written on it.
  • 3 of 20: Have you tried to pick them up?
  • 4 of 20: If you walk over the candies, the candies will disappear.
  • 5 of 20: More candies will appear in the distance.
  • 6 of 20: The idea is to collect all the candies (run over them), one bunch at a time, as they appear.
  • 7 of 20: The catch is, you only have eight seconds between bunches of candies.  If you take longer than eight seconds, the candies will disappear and you'll need to start over.
  • 8 of 20: There are ten sets of candies in all.
  • 9 of 20: Some of them are fairly far apart -- you'll need to sprint (CAPS LOCK) to reach them in time.
  • 10 of 20: Make sure, when looking for a new set of candies, that you look in all directions -- even behind you.
  • 11 of 20: Start by standing beside the first set of candies (with the fence on your right). 
  • 12 of 20: To find the second set of candies move forward and slightly to the left (moving at an angle, away from the fence).
  • 13 of 20: To find the third set, move forward again (and just a bit to the left again).
  • 14 of 20: To find the fourth set, turn around (nearly 180 degrees) and run back towards the way you arrived.  This set is somewhat harder to see -- look for it in a slight dip in the ground.
  • 15 of 20: To find the fifth set, run forward, following the dip in the ground, toward the fence corner.
  • 16 of 20: To find the sixth set, move forward again (and slightly to the right).  The candies are to the left of the tunnel entrance.
  • 17 of 20: To find the seventh set, run to the left, toward Hint Rock.  This set is difficult to catch within the time allowed.  It is helpful to try turn yourself around just before you reach the sixth set of candies, so that you are already facing Hint Rock when you touch the sixth set.  Keep running -- don't pause at all, or you won't make it.
  • 18 of 20: To find the eighth set, move to the left, along the shore.
  • 19 of 20: To find the ninth set, run forward and slightly to the left, to the phone booth.
  • 20 of 20: To find the last set, run to the left, toward the Strangely Pink area.
