    Help! My character won’t move! I stopped playing yesterday, and continued playing today, but when I went back on (I am The Doctor on the streets of London, I think I’m going to find the town crier) my character wouldn’t move, I can’t look in my inventory, Amy is watching me from far away and people are still walking past me but I can’t talk to them.

      i had that problom 2. the best way to get out of it is to start the adventure games again. it should not be to hard as you should already know what to do. then, when you get to that bit again, do not stop playing until you are in the next save. I think the problem is that something forgets to load at that save as you are meant to be playing as amy

    in the rutan ship there is lighting zaps its relly hard but flick the switches and you will get throw the door and give amy the goo in the part where you get throw the door and that boy is in there and he steals a orb and now i am t the part where u need to get the orbs back

      Wait, I’m having trouble there too– but my problem is I can’t seem to run fast enough to get away! The falling rubble always gets me on the third batch. I see in all the walkthroughs that Amy and Rory make it to a crossway of two halls/tunnels and stop to catch their breath, but I can’t even get to there! I’m holding down the down arrow the entire time, even while Rory is still talking in the cutscene at the beginning of that section, but Amy just keeps going slower! Does anyone have any suggestions or know what I’m doing wrong???
