Ever since I played the Journey of Reemus game a few months back, I’ve been waiting for the real series to start. Well today, Journey of Reemus Chapter 1 just came out. In this game, you pick up where you left off last and are going to the King’s castle on an ill-fated journey for the princess. On the way you’ll have to solve some puzzles, get past some obstacles, and do some other crazy things to complete your quest. The game plays smoothly and is very enjoyable all the way across.

Take advantage of this and explore the area and try out a few things. This game is a state-of-the-art puzzle adventure and a joy to play. But if you want a walkthrough, I have one below for you.

1. When you start, Reemus is hanging on a root and liam has to get him out. There is a blue tail-looking thing at the bottom left. It is a snake, click on it and it will come out. Then click on the left orange(not green) fruit on the tree and then the snake. This will hypnotize the snake and allow you to use it. Click on the snake again, this forms his tail into a knot around the tree root. Now click on the top green fruit of the tree, then click on the one below it. This will make the snake bite the animal and pull Reemus through a hole onto the ledge.

2. In the next scene, you have to find a way into the castle. Click the golden rod that is at the bottom left and then use it to knock out the green stone on the well. Click on the orange flag on the floor, it will go around the tree. Then click on the gold rod again and put it in the dirt. Click on the tree to take a slingshot, then double click the green stone to use the sling to break the bell. Then use the rope from the bell to climb the castle wall.

3. Unfortunately while Liam is climbing up, lightning strikes and he falls into the well. Click on one of the jumping orange fish, a bigger fish will come and eat it. Click on the green plant and then another orange fish. This will get the green plant to grab the big fish. Click the spiky-claw thing that is at the bottom right of the wall and the lily pad. Double click the claw to attach the lily-pad rope. Click on liam and the fish, this will make liam slide down. Click the claw again to attach it to the bucket. Click the tail of the fish again to make the rope attach to the fish. Click the bucket and/or the fish again, it will make it drop. Now use the rope to climb out of the well.

4. Now Liam is on the inside and has to find a way to open the door. There is an axe, click on it and click on the wooden barricade several times to cut it. Use the axe again on the chain to the well. Take the chain and then click on the big wheel of wheel-burrow. Click on the thin metal-pipe type thing that was part of the wheel burrow and then click on the wheel again. Click on the chain again to attach it and then click on the wheel to turn it and open the door.

5. Now you are inside the castle but there is an evil werewolf thing after you. First click the bag and then click on the chicken. This will make the chicken eat the feed and then the werewolf thing will eat the chicken. Next, click a roasted chicken and the werewolf thing will eat that too. Click the small pulley-wheel that is hanging a piece of cloth once and it will slide. Click the towel to land it on the werewolf-thing. Click the rope by the werewolf-thing’s tail to tie it. Then click the barricade and open the door.

6. Now you are inside the building and you find what looks to be a living human heart. Open the door and enter the blacksmith place. Click the sharpening wheel to start it. Click the sword, then the fire to put the sword in the fire. Click the hammer on the wall to beat the heated sword. Then take the sword on put it on the sharpening wheel. Use the sword on the hook that has the lamp, this will cut the lamp. Click the spear and click the vise(the thing near the sharpener) to put the spear on the vise. Click on the spear tip again to remove the tip from the stick and click on the hook to take it. This will form a hook on a wooden shaft. Take the thing and leave the room.

7. Now you must open the attic door. Use hook to open the attack and an old dude will fall out. He tells you that everyone has fled because of the death slugs. Now look at the wheel on the door, you’ll see that it says “the crow files at red dawn”. Put the crow, the rising sun, and the red color above the arrow and pull the lever, then take the rope and climb into the attic. The death slugs hatch and kill the werewolf-thingy. The old guy is a cooking wizard and he’s baked a cake to get you out of the castle. Unfortunately, the old guy takes the cake and flies off on it.

8. Now your in trouble and need to get away from the death slugs. Click the cheese, then the blue jam on top of the cheese. The mouse will get stuck. Take the spoon from the birdcage, releasing the bird
Click the box to reveal a bottle, use it to make the green potion and give it to the mouse. Make the purple potion(by combing red and blue) and give it to the mouse. Now ride away on your winged mouse and get ready for chapter 2 when it comes out!

The story leaves off when a giant winged cat comes and gets your mouse.

Thanks to fedayin of Freegamesnews for getting me through parts of the story where I got stuck.
