The clues to start the boat are there, you just need to find the initial clue, say perhaps what does 3 = or perhaps the square =. Could those arrows have something to do with those knobs perchance?

What bugs me is what do the little arrows that show up on the matching game squares mean?

This is a pretty easy Hidden Object game and the puzzles in between scenes are easy as well. I like it because it's fairly mindless and can be played while watching (or listening to the) TV. I also like the fact that you can unlock unlimited Match Three puzzles and Hidden Object scenes after finding a certain amount of padlocks throughout the game.

It's a slightly taxing game with lots of immediate gratification and no frustration. Having said that, I haven't gotten to the end yet so I don't know about the trouble-starting-the-boat that the other reviewer experienced. If I have trouble with that I'll let you know....:)

Loved the game. Got to the end and can't figure how to start the boat. No tips. Help!
