[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"]Couple things you can do - you can eat one of the oysters, which will allow you to >vomit. (Coming up with alternate phrasings for that was fun.) Then, the dog will eat what you barfed up, instead of you. The other way to do it is to grab the bottle of Worcester sauce from the mailbox before you get in the room. The game says that the dog will eat anything but oysters in the shell and pleather, so if you dump some sauce on the floor or the cauldron or table or whatever, he'll lap that up instead of eating you. I really tried to avoid adventure game logic in the first part. Dogs eat barf, right? We grew up with dogs and I think they did eat barf. I think that's a thing. But I know that thinking of throwing up may not come to a lot of players, so I put the other solution in. I hope there were a few references to puking early on so it didn't come completely out of the blue. (Believe me, any time I write about a solution, I'm coming at it with an angle of "I didn't clue it enough" and NOT that "the player did something wrong.") ICJ[/quote]
