-==============================================================- Guide 1.0 (Final) for Welcome House Sega Saturn (JAP import) by I.Mecking, 2005. -==============================================================- =Table of contents= 1.Intro (Version history/Game info) 2.Controls 3.Save/Load 4.Guide 5.Credits =================== 1.Intro. =-------= [Version history] *v1.0: June 2005; First and last. [Game info] -Title: Welcome House -Release: 1997 -Players: 1 -Developer: Gust co ltd. -Publisher: Imagineer -Game #: T-15027G This F.A.Q was written for people who are stuck somewhere in the game or need some help with the controls. Because the game is SLIGHTLY different than the PSX version I figured it would be nice to have a Saturn specified guide as well. ===================================================================== 2.Controls. =----------= Moving around in Welcome House isn't very easy at first, because you can only walk in straight lines. You'll soon get used to it, though. Here's the overview of the controls: D-PAD - Move around. Moving between items in inventory. A - Inspect objects/open doors. Sometimes you can inspect an object more than once. B - Cancel/Go back. C - Inventory. Press C again to use object. Y - Used to jump in the moving floor tile room. START - See map of current floor. Press START again to enter the SAVE GAME option. Advanced movements: -Sitting down: Walk backwards 'into' chairs, beds etc. -Running: Hold 'A' BEFORE you start to walk in a direction. Hold. Inventory: -Press DOWN to switch between USING an item and INSPECTING an item. ===================================================================== 3.Save/Load =----------= Saving and loading isn't too difficult, but there's some things you might want to know. TO SAVE: During the game press START twice. You can now select YES or NO by using LEFT and RIGHT. Now press START again to SAVE or press B to undo. 88 blocks of memory are needed. Unfortunately only one game can be saved. So be careful not to overwrite your old game! TO LOAD: At the main menu screen press down and the cursor will change to LOAD. Press START again to load. ===================================================================== 4.Guide =------= Because this game is kinda short and you could figure most things out yourself anyway, I've chosen to only list all items with their purpose and some hints for the harder rooms. This way you still can play the game without too much being spoiled. *Item list Contain info; not much use if you don't read Japanese. But some might contain a little more! Make sure you find all seven! A book which is a great help to car mechanics. So you might as well give it to one. Needed for the recipe the cook will make for you later on in the game. This is what you get after the cook made your recipe. Would make great dog food. Needed for the recipe the cook will make for you later on in the game. White keys, blue keys, gold keys; Use them on doors. Duh. Should be given to a woman, when you see one! Needed for the recipe the cook will make for you later on in the game. Given to the cook later on in the game. Three records can be found. Can be used with the jukebox in the bar and serve no other purpose than fun. Used to saw through wooden barriers.. Used to catch fish..and lobsters. Needed for the recipe the cook will make for you later on in the game. Needed for the recipe the cook will make for you later on in the game. ------------------------ *Rooms hints
Not EVERY door is locked! Man who stand on toilet, high on pot. Between your worn socks and rubbish. Just what's that on top of the fridge? Oh and don't forget the eggs..they're here somewhere.. Jump! Place the white book on the barrel (sorry, way too hard to make a hint about) The best stuff is right behind the counter, isn't it? <'Behind the mirror' room> Help yourself! You must be tired, sit down and watch some tv. Stuck in this empty room? Make the walls move. A SAW, STRAINER and LOVE LETTER can all be found in this room. Can you? Oh and there's a secret passageway as well..make a guess where it's hidden! Lets turn on some music..hey! Remember bathroom 1? Now search a little lower..ugh! There's more books and more keys to be found! Pick up the phone last. This room ain't empty! You need to jump across the crates and take the most masculine picture. Return the books! -------------------------- *General hints When doors don't open by walking into them press the 'A' button a couple of times, sometimes this will unlock the door. Make sure you collect each book, you'll need them at the end of the game. Make sure you search every object in each room so you don't miss any. ===================================================================== 5.Credits. =----------------------= For this version..
