So far no-one has responded to the last posting( apart from alot of people wanting to know about it also.), so I'm reposting a varied version in the hope that someone, somewhere out there might know. Here is a quote from a document entitled "SHADOWGATE, The Secret Room." "There's an even more obscure hidden room in Uninvited. But that's for next time... Joe Egg Sept. 12, 1987 " Has anyone heard of this bloke? or is it just someone's idea of a joke? Thanks in advance: ) Phill Kent. email: pkent@gara.une.oz.au or pkent@neumann.une.oz.au

Yes and yes. All of the MacVentures (Deja Vu, Uninvited, Shadowgate, and Deja Vu II) except for Deja Vu II (to the best of my knowledge) have secret rooms, and they are very much the programmers' idea of a joke. The one in Uninvited, in particular, has a fairly interesting story behind it. >Thanks in advance: ) You're welcome! > Phill Kent. >email: pkent@gara.une.oz.au or > pkent@neumann.une.oz.au Paul Snively co-author, Deja Vu II 1st Choice: Paul_Snively.DTS@gateway.qm.apple.com 2nd: CHEWBACCA@applelink.apple.com 3rd: chewy@apple.com 4th: Chewy@cup.portal.com

Ok so we know that the room is through the door to the left in the Magisterium. **Please** (double that) give us a hint!!!! note: "us" includes all the other people who mailed me , who are also dying of curiosity! > > >Thanks in advance: ) > > You're welcome! > > Paul Snively > co-author, Deja Vu II > 1st Choice: Paul_Snively.DTS@gateway.qm.apple.com Even more Thanks in advance: ) Phill Kent ( dying from curiosity ) email: pkent@gara.une.oz.au or pkent@neumann.une.oz.au

Ok so we know that the room is through the door to the >left in the Magisterium. **Please** (double that) give us a hint!!!! Forget it! Mr. Snively is incorruptible. I did manage to get one piece of information out of him, for those who know what to do with it. The secret room in Uninvited involves a feature of the star map. (I know what the feature is. Those who have also found it will know what I'm talking about. Those who haven't will just have to look for it.) Robert rmiller@sbcs.sunysb.edu

For people who want a hint... (spoiler follows) There is a special object on the star map. Try clicking on the star map and look carefully.
