Return to Pleasantville

How do I download the game? When I go to the link at the top of thread, I cannot get the "slow download" link to work... I have even signed up for a free account with FF, I cannot add the file to "my files," either...

[ExLibris]

Talking to people on the phone seems very buggy. If you pick a topic that's not implemented it realises that they're not physically there and the conversation ends.

If you arrive at the concert late, when a new band comes on stage they will reset the clock, allowing you to travel back in time (not that you can leave the concert).

Speaking of the clock, was there no way the time could simply be displayed without having to spend two minutes checking your phone?

[Shepard]

Nice work, Lamont! I'm loving the game so far.

But... have a question:

How can I increase my flirting chances? Giving shots to the girls in the bar seems to help a bit, but what about the other girls? Is there some kind of item or upgrade that I'm missing?

[lamont Sanford]

for ex libris I took the time dsilay off screen kind of as a means to prompt people to remember they have a phone and use it without beating the answer over their heads. The time skip at the shows were a necessary evil and in the end I figured they were not a huge deal. The phone part is a tricky thing because like you said the player is not in the location of the player so you need to juke the game a bit to get it to work. At the end of the day it is one of those little nagging things but not a major one.

@ shepard there is an item in the game which can help your chances a little. Hint: it can be acquired in the mall.

strange, so far nobody has had a problem and there have been nearly 800 downloads of the file. Jut keep trying and if it still does not work I will try to find someplace else to upload it (or better yet someone else will

-- nm, updating the program seems to have made the issue go away, for now at least --

[ExLibris]

I've had a few instances where flirting just doesn't work (ie. the person just looks bemused)

Is this deliberate? If so, what causes it?

Also, does helping the lost tourist do anything?

Are either Rebecca or Linda Chris's mother?

Do you recall who/where/when?

I ran into her later in the day/evening around the area of the bar...sorry i can't be more specific i wasn't really paying attention to the exact location and time of day as just "bumped into her"

Renee at the bar several times, Angela once. It could be because I have the book, but it doesn't seem to affect anyone else.

[lamont Sanford]

If you have the book and try to flirt with people they goof on you and you cannot get anywhere with them. I mean if you flirt with a woman with a book about flirting in your dirty mitts she would probably clown you.

Yes if you help the tourist girl early it can lead to good things for your penis.

[Cochise]

Oh man this is one great game, thank you on behalf of everyone with a "fucking the neighbor MILFs" fetish. It's killing me, not being able to save on day 1, because that's when it all happens!

I do kinda wish you could "converse" with the women though, asking them stuff, etc. Instead of just hitting flirt again and again and hoping to get thumbs up. Also I don't know if it's the interpreter or what, but I've had trouble trying to identify/utilizing things. I didn't know there was anything to buy at the bookstore, I kept typing x books, x bargain bin, buy books, etc... Also, can you "ring the doorbell", in a manner of speaking at the big house with the iron gate? Says there's an intercom with a button and I tried a bunch of commands and nothing did it for me.

Once again, great, great game. I gotta go for a few hours but I'll be right back to try and get everyone in that bar, including Renee...

...who I maxed flirt with, and waited till the bar closed yet nothing happened... Do I have to turn down the bitchy google chick for Renee to want me?

I left the town intact from the first game, the iron gate outside olivia and samanthas house is still there but there is no use for it in game or anything affiliated with that location. As for Renee...

You have 3 criteria to get in her pants, 1 is to have flirted to the maximum. 2 is you need to tip her well throughout the night and 3 you need to be at the bar for last call and help her close up..if you help her close and she just thanks you then either you didnt flirt or tip enough

[Stravinsky]

How do you actually get the book? I've tried everything I could think of at the mall with no luck.

Overall I think the game has great potential, but lack of undo, lack of saving and the flirting mechanics make it EXTREMELY frustrating, especially if one wants to see all the possibilities.

[Severn]

I'm loving this game, haven't meet all the girls yet never mind got their scenes/mapped the best path!
I genuinely don't think the lack of save or undo matters that much, and although the random flirt system is inconvenient at times the game is short enough and generally well paced (bit annoying that you're stuck in the gig for the full event) so restarting isn't a major issue (maybe I've been lucky though).

I would of liked more interactive sex scenes and it's the second day/ending were a little but then again PiP was the same, any plans for a Continuation in Pleasantville?

@Stravinsky

The book is in the bargain bin in the book

"Look in bin"

"Take Book"

"Buy book"
