Dizzy's Quest (HELP THREAD)

I was determined not to be the one starting a help thread but I've waited for a week, no-one else has obliged so here I am again :blush:  

I was doing really well.  I have two magic stars, 9gems and only 11 coins left.  Items I have are:-

empty bucket, baby dragon, handcuffs, walking stick, camera, dead bee, orange vase, blue vase (placed), red pill, combination, reversal spell, strength potion, piratge flag, space ship, red switch spell, library card.

I can't work out how to deal with the blue button and beam.  I can't find the dragon but did when I first started and I have managed, somehow, to lock all the windows in the yolkfolk houses so can't get to Glenda !!!!  I really would like to get back into the game but I'm absolutely stumped.  Please Grandad take pity on me :lol:  

Hi Sparkles, the dragon (baby) is in Glenda's area which can only be reached

[spoiler title="spoiler"]by one of the windows in Dizzy and Daisy's hut. None of the other hut windows in the tree house complex takes you anywhere. Unless I've done something stupid that 'teleport' should always work.[/spoiler]

I assume you're talking about the blue button and beam at the start of Lord Blood's castle. Essentially,

[spoiler title="spoiler"]you need to turn the red beams off, then get to the blue button press it and run (not run and jump) - you should have enough time to jump over the ladder and red ball before the blue beam returns.[/spoiler]

Thanks Grandad.  Working through Lord Blood’s castle and got through the correct window :lol:  .  Have tried everywhere I can think of in Glenda’s area but can’t find the dragon.  When I first started playing this game I kept finding the blasted thing and I can’t remember how I did it.  Anyway I’m not giving up but am in desperate need of funds now aaaaargh !!!!!!  As ever though I’m really enjoying the latest Grandad game.

Sorry to be a pain in the proverbial but I really can't find the dragon.  I was sure it was near the library but....... Any chance of a nudge in the right direction?

[spoiler title="here's the dragon"]Go to Glenda's area, use the teleport, jump up and through the tree at the top. The dragon is on the branch on the other side :tup:  [/spoiler]

@grandad sorry, I don’t mean the baby dragon I mean it’s mother !

Er, there is no dragon Sparkles, the only large animal is a mole that is to the right of the entrance to Lord Blood's castle.. plus some of my little 'blobs' scattered around  :surprise:  

Hi everyone

Got 3 magic stars, still one chest item missing (Henry Jones Jnr), stuck with grey key, strenght potion, spanner (used once), bucket (used once), a few vases  (I know where to use them but my access to some places in the castle is limited), library card (used once and seems useless now), red switch spell (I know where to use it). Those moving red dots drive me nuts, there's one place I need to freeze them to achieve progress. Of course dunno how.

48 coins left

7 gems

60 secrets

The library card isn't useless, it can be used to open a window {eggs3}:idea:  

If you're talking about those red dots that are going up and down above the steps, [spoiler title="half spoiler"]you only have to get past them once (you can fit in the gaps) and then find the secret in that room to turn them off[/spoiler]

The dots are still moving.  What a mess what a mess. I need a green key. After all that I can't succeed. 

I also need a bribe for the dog. I found a secret room in Glenda's house but I can't collect those two items. 

As you go right after entering Lord Blood's castle there is a 'black' hole in the wall with a pushed in wall block underneath. When you action it you get a message about pressing other wall blocks in the castle. Also, in the main library there is a book called The Mind of Grandad that mentions about 'his' little tricks that actioning certain objects more than once can sometimes give an extra clue or treat.

Basically, these are me giving little clues about pressing wall blocks in Lord Blood's castle and that sometimes you have to press certain wall blocks twice or more to give extra clues or treats... and sometimes other places outside of Lord Blood's castle that give you a clue as to what to do...

oh for arguments sake, let's say in Glenda's upper room {special}:summer:  

Likewise, somewhere outside Lord Blood's castle there is a book about Lord Blood telling you his favourite colour password sequence, which you'll need when you jump up through the secret passage above one of the coloured vases.

Also, those who are familiar with my games know that often I don't make certain items available to collect until you have a need for them... such as giving a dog a bone.

[spoiler title="turning off the red balls"]The red balls on the steps can by turned off my jumping into the left hand wall of that room[/spoiler]

Of course it's a bone but I can't find it anywhere. I think I pressed all wall blocks twice or more. No secret passage above a vase (I got them all btw), no green key. 

There's only one skeleton in the game - that might be a good place to get a bone {yolkfolk}:animwink:  

[spoiler title="green key"]The secret passage was above the blue vase, but you've been there and got the orange vase... which is where the green key is... if you press all the secret wall blocks that appear.[/spoiler]

Yes but I can't take that bone. Plus problem with password. Part of the mumbo jumbo poster is missing in one place.  

You can if the dog has told you it wants a treat. I assume you have drunk the 'talk to animals' potion.

True, but have you solved the code book in the library[spoiler title="code book"] it's a simple substitution code where A = Z, B = Y etc[/spoiler]

Got it, don't have a remote control though. And don't get the numbered maze puzzle. 

That's because you haven't given Lord Blood 25 diamonds yet.

If you mean Mr Beardy's towers, that's just to get the spells and potions from his attic.

I gave him 25 diamonds and 5 more. I just don't get it. I got red vase. 

Oh Grandad this is an amazing game but I've messed up and had to start again.  I'm in Mr Beardey's Tower. I have 20 diamonds but just can't find any more.  I got stuck at this point the first time I played and I really can't remember or work out where I found the last five.  I've been over all levels again and again please could I have a hint.

Gypsy: [spoiler title="getting the remote"]You lose the vase when you put it on the red floor button in the area with the bouncy balls as that opens the doorway to Lord Blood's office. You give him 25 diamonds to get the magic star. You give him 5 more diamonds to be told that Mr Beardy has an magic diamond hidden in his towers and get the ability to read Lord Blood's signs hidden around the map. When you find the one with the missing bit and discover the number is missing, go back to Lord Blood and he will give you a remote control.[/spoiler]

Sparkles: [spoiler title="those missing diamonds"]You can find at lease five more diamonds by jumping into the two secret caverns in the walls of Mr Beardy's purple tower leading to his attic. Glad you're enjoying my little brain teaser.[/spoiler]
