Publisher's description of UHS (Universal Hint System)

From Universal Hint System:

This utility gives gamers an alternative method for getting hints when they're stuck on a game. UHS (Universal Hint System) lets gamers select specific questions and view only as much information as they want, so they can finish solving the game on their own. UHS offers a large number of hint files that cover many of the current as well as the classic games (see screen shot).

Version 4.5 now allows gamers to download the latest hint files from within the program. Simply connect to the Web, choose ""Download New Hints"" from the file menu, and select the names of the games that you need.

Note: This is a 60-day trial, with registration required to view the final sections of some hint files. Registration costs $20.

"Doesn't make you feel guilty."

Summary: I like this. I just broke down and bought the first three Monkey Island games. I quickly got stuck, some of the puzzles are really obscure. I used it to get through the first bit, but then I saved a walkthrough in notepad. Big mistake! This gives yo... read more >>
