The Skyfall marketing machine is in full gear, and with just a week to go, it’s spat out this awesome MI6 text adventure game, where you have to prove you’re fit for her majesty’s service. Great for wasting your Friday afternoon; because, let’s face it, you weren’t going to do any work anyway, right?
So far I’ve been shouted at by some trapped agent, and really not got very far at all, but then I’ve never been particularly good at text adventure games. Anyone managed to get past the second mission? [007.com]
Here's a Weirdo Facebook Bug to Waste Your Friday With
Classic iPod in Your Browser: The Best Way to Waste Your Friday Evening
Gizmodo's Afternoon with 50 Cent
Well, first attempt, managed to pass, except I killed the hostiles…
Oh well, four more tries!
Was going well until I pressed backspace and it brought me back here!! Happened twice, I give up now!
Dammit! Just starting the fourth, pressed backspace too many times and ended up here again
… you find a man with a samurai sword.
Taser
… the man hits the ground.
Cuff him
… you find he’s just blind, with a white cane.
Shoot him and leave no evidence….
Harsh.
Hate this game. There’s hardly any details when I query and takes too long to respond. Most of it is trial and error and when I want it to do something sensible it locks up.
I got to Simulation 4 and died. Oh well.
I wonder how far you have to get to prove you’re worthy. Maybe you win tickets to the premier — that would be pretty epic.
I will try again when I get home to see how much further along I get.
just finished 2nd, connected phone to bomb then asked if he could see a prism and that defused bomb?
but i should have planted my phone on target first and used tablet to connect
Is there anywhere i can get the answers for this? stuck on the bomb thing in simulation 2 and its driving me crazy!
ask if he can see a prism
YOU: Can you see a prism?
AGENT: This is the only visual that matters right now.
and then he just reposts the image.

I don’t believe you
Stuck on the bomb. Telling him to remove thr prism and he keeps asking me to break it down for him. Idiot. How on earth did he get a job?
I keep getting “: The colours are out of sequence. They don’t spell R-O-Y-G-B.”
same here got the tablet attached to the bomb put the phone in the car now stuck
The colours coming from the prism match the colours of the wires on the bomb. You need to cut them in the same order as the photo.

Haha…
Good for lunch break;-)
but there is a flaw, the agent woyuld never manage to keep all that things, they would got lost like all those pendrives with sensitive data, anyway this is how far I got:
AGENT: Being chased by five armed enemy agents.
AGENT: It’s either face them in the open or find somewhere I can even the odds a little. Help.
YOU: Throw Vaio at them and run to hide
AGENT: If I want to play it tactically I’ll need somewhere I can stand my ground. Wait. Lyon is full of old tunnels. That might do it. Seem to remember some catacombs are near here?
YOU: Don’t want to throw it? That pron collection was outdated anyway…
AGENT: Field training would say I need somewhere I can defend. Maybe make some noise. Underground would be good.
YOU: Shame u don’t have iPhone, it does squeeky-alien sound prety well, anyway play Justin Bieber!
AGENT: Looks like it’s either down into the catacombs or fighting them here.
AGENT: They’re closing. Need to move.
YOU: Dont’t worry, no one will stand Justin, play some Jedwards to finish them off.
AGENT: Looks like it’s either down into the catacombs or fighting them here.
YOU: Justin Bieber will do, espacially in catacombs. Don’t forget to tweet what u see!
AGENT: Looks like it’s either down into the catacombs or fighting them here.
AGENT: Running out of time.YOU: I know, their songs are tooo short, OK, calm down and treat them with some cats from utube
AGENT: Looks like it’s either down into the catacombs or fighting them here.
YOU: Cats will give you some time, there’s almost as much of them in internets as Bieber’s, almost…
AGENT: Looks like it’s either down into the catacombs or fighting them here.
AGENT: They’re moving in. Must move NOW.
YOU: Are you doing what I am saying or updating the bloody FB status again?
AGENT: They’re close. Out of options. Time to fight…
AGENT: …
AGENT: …
YOU: I told you, hope you did not tweet anything your family would be ashamed for, you will get a medal thoughy…
On the 4th now
And its fooked. Mission 4 won’t respond to anything I type after I had to abort for the same reason, oh well.
knackered for me on mission 3
What kind of simulation is this? The game does not appear to involve drinking Martini’s, driving expensive cars or sleeping with beautiful women and the gadgets aren’t even running the latest version of Android.
Mine’s bugging out, on the 2nd mission and after it introduces the scenario it freezes. Ah well.
Ha. My fourth kept bugging out. I went back to 007.com and it put me on mission 5. Awesome.
I passed mission 1, but killed the hostiles, passed mission 2 with flying colours on the second attempt, passed mission 3 with by crashing the drone, one better outcome available. first try at mission 4.
AGENT: Being chased by five armed enemy agents.
AGENT: It’s either face them in the open or find somewhere I can even the odds a little. Help.
YOU: Good job this aint for real, there is real lag in this game
AGENT: If I want to play it tactically I’ll need somewhere I can stand my ground. Wait. Lyon is full of old tunnels. That might do it. Seem to remember some catacombs are near here?
YOU: Really? get in them then
AGENT: Catacombs do sound like our best bet. Running there. Stand by…
AGENT: Made it. Gate’s padlocked. Got seconds to pick it. Hold on…
AGENT: I’m in. Jammed the door behind me. They’re trying to break it. Pitch black in here. Using my Xperia as a torch.
YOU: It
AGENT: Rephrase that? Decryption problems.
YOU: Have you got a gun?
AGENT: Good question. Got a phone. VAIO laptop. Data on disk. Oh yeah – my watch is a bomb. Magnetic and everything.
YOU: You should have bought a gun
AGENT: Don’t get you. Under slight stress, sorry.
YOU: Well if you had bought a gun with you instead of a laptop you might be able to defend yourself
AGENT: Sorry, I’m not following you. Say another way?
YOU: Guns good for killing bad guys, laptops not so much
AGENT: Can you rephrase?
YOU: &%^$*&$^£”()
… and then the game crashed!
Guns don’t kill people, laptops do.
