SSSG7 Super Sneaky Spy Guy 7 The Golden Goblet



Note: this map was created painstakingly and has taken me all night. It is now five in the am, and I started this at ten. Please link to this post and do not just copy it.

The one with the Golden Goblet.

This is the one Super Sneaky Spy Guy with the, um, "difficult" interface. The brilliant author of this series, Self Denial, was trying new things about 'intuitive' direction, but it was not necessarily a huge success. Navigation can be a real pain. [note that the game is still really worth it, so get used to it!]

Note: Two houses. The big one on the left is called the Guest house. The smaller one on the right is called the Main residence.


The code for the alarm system (574) for right hand house is scratched on the stone paving near the place where you start the game, one screen to the left .

On the table of the 'Living room' in that house you find a battery. You find the 'Master bedroom' to left of living room.

In the 'Dinette' there is a note about a lost clarinette, which you will find in drawers in kitchen. (click handle of middle left one)

Continue through the kitchen to the 'Patio' and find blue gem on table. Red gem is in the white bedroom, just called Bedroom, to the right when you are in the 'Dinette'.

Guest bedroom 2 (to left of living room in 'Main residence') has a light bulb lying on a table, but beware, there are two views for this room and its in the view without the bed. You may easily just enter the room and leave without noticing it.

Over to big house - the 'Guest house'. You currently have two gems. Go into the 'Guest Living room'. In the room behind you, 'Guest room 4', you find a mini cassette in a drawer.

Go up through the Guest living room, the Guest kitchen to the back patio. Investigate the views beyond. Go to the right from the patio to the pool areas, ending up in 'Pool,lounge' (which keeps reminding me of that rather excellent film 'Trees Lounge'), where we find the last gem, the green one, hidden in a planter.

Go back to the Guest kitchen and investigate the two bedrooms to either side. Guest room 8 has a flashing alarm that goes off as you enter. Turn it off and look at the picture. Make a mental note of what you see. (Palm trees reflected in water)

Bedroom 3 is the other room. It contains three vase-like objects which are obviously the rightful homes of the gems. Put the gems in place, and get black key. (which is needed to access the Master bath room)

Back to other house and the Master bedroom. Now that you have the black key you can get into the Master Bath although it's a bit tricky. Moving the tissue box you find a silver key.

Look around the Master bedroom well and read the book on the desk (to the left as you go in). You read '… I see a reflection of __ palm trees' Enter the number of reflections of palms on the picture in the Guest room 8 and you will get a gold key. (8)
Now with the gold key you can go through to whatever lies beyond Pool,lounge!

Wandering back along the beach to the Guest house, we go up through the house to the Pool, lounge. The gold key unlocks Guest Rooms 7 and 6. In a bedside drawer in Guest Room 6 you find a tape recorder which, if you have the battery and the tape, plays a message…'The peaceful view is where I like to play my song on theclarinette for the birds. I play for them 'wind song'.'

So, remembering, we go to the top left of the map, where there was a nice view and a peaceful view. Here we play a song on the clarinet. We choose to play 'wind song', and magically the golden goblet appears! If we click it now the game is over.

We still haven't used the silver key, for the room off the guest living room. Now we go in, and the fan is missing something. We put the bulb in and read in its beam a clue we didn't really need: 'Sunset palms reflection'.

Go back and click the goblet if you haven't already.




My first go at this game ended early. How come I could finish it without the silver key? And what was the light bulb for? Didn't use that in anything. See above for answers.
