Anyone else got this game?

I heard about it months ago, it was out in japan and they was on about will it or won't it be out in uk.

Next thing i know, it's out in uk and called SOS: final escape.
So because of the great GAME 10 day return policy, i got it, and it's GREAT!!!!

I can't find ANY reviews ANYWHERE on the net, but i'd recommend it.
It plays kind of Res evil style but there's no zombies to kill, and your trapped on an island after an earthquake. rescueing people and trying to find a way out, of the ever changing city.

There's multiply pathways aswell, you play a different game depending on what choices you make, so it's got some reply value aswel.

good game, i'm just wondering about the size of the game, hopin it's not over to quickly cos it's good.

Jive, sorry to bother you again. How do I exactly make him brush off the dust from the emergency exit? Do I need to find any special item for this? I found the emergency exit (it's the one behind the angel compass, right?), but I still can't figure out how. Forgive me, okay? :)

Thanks Jive, I'll try that. If all else fails, hope it won't be a pain for you, if I'll bother you again. :) -Sibak

Thanks Again.

Well your in luck because I remember this part as I was stuck for ages.

On one of the floors, think it's the lowest floor you can get to, you need to look in one of the corners for the emergency exit, you need to make him brush the dust off and then he climbs down.

Hope that helps you out :)

Jive, Hi! I started this game just 2 nights ago and I am already stuck in the part where there's a bent emergency exit in this building (Girard Street, 5th floor). What do I do there? There's a posted map on the wall showing the escape route but the door, beside that bent emergency exit and the shelf with the angel compass, won't open. I don't know how to go back or any further since I keep falling whenever I go back to that narrow path in front of the lined lockers. Please help, I just really like the game and I don't want to be stuck here so early. Thanks!

You can put email addresses on this site, although it's up to you if you want everyone to know it.

I'll start the game again and see if I can catch you up :)

No problems I had to go out myself and I would not ask you to go to all that trouble. I always hate games where I get stuck early on for no apparent reason, but that is lack of patience for you. Thank you very much for your help so far though and bothering to reply.
If you do find an aswer please let me know. I am not sure if you are allowe to publish e mail addresses on this site?
Thanks

This is really annoying that I can't help you. I've looked on www.gamefaqs.com (always handy for walkthroughs) but the ones that are there wont help you out.

I really should fire up my PS2 but I'll have to spend 5 hours just to get to where you are and I'm going out at 8ish :(

The clock show s about 5 hours? Picked up the turtle compass here if this is any help? Just dont understand how to get across quick to beat the floating house. Actually if you cant remember it must be easy and I am doing something wrong because if you had been stuck at this point you would probably have remembered?? as i t would have caused you grief?
Thanks anyway for your time

Oh dear another PS2 out the window :)

How far are you through in the game? Have you got to the bit where you have to build a craft?

Thing is I'm really struggling to work out where you are in the game, sorry if that sounds really dense.
