I still maintain the game is too unguided and dependent on simply beating every location to death. You often are just wandering around blindly trying to hit everything at every time and hope something happens. I am not saying the game should railroad you, but there should be some clues as to what to do next.

Especially bad in the Kurndorf quest if you are trying not to bad end, it's absolute luck or the walkthrough. It's almost impossible to find the solution otherwise. Other things hard to find are how to get hypnosis in some tracks, Legion, and things like Gina and the Mother superior (the game outright gives you almost no clue what to do with the possession spell at all; you just have to know who on and where to use it).

If it's there there's no option to pick it up, I have Davy and Jessica tied up down there too, so maybe that overrides the option?
When I found it, it was a tiny link underneath the picture of Jessica. Picked it up before I freed her. Davy wasn't there yet, so I have no idea if that would change anything.

Then your only option might be to use the cheat function to put the crystal in a location where you can find it. Better contact the developer for instructions.
Will do, thank you again for your help!

UPDATE: managed to use the console to add in the crystal and soul bind it. Found the commands on the A Spell For All Wiki under the cheats page.

when you activate the mod it's broken, the pictures are huge and the text is focred to the side and are tiny
Which mod , so you mean the large bologna standalone one or the Severn Valley? I just started a new game with the Severn Valley scenario and all is working normally.

What browser are you using

I note there is an issue I thought I had fixed for Chrome browser with the FIRST screen only. Click the link to move on and all will be fine

This is how the game works. You will meet Davy and Kate later.

I'm sorry but despite how good the contents of the game are, it devolves too readily into literally just trying every location over and over by brute force. The notepad and characters talking in game simply do not provide enough guidance. I know you want the player to "not know anything more than the character", but the character doesn't know what to do and thus neither does the player. Many times, the notes are not helpful as you they give you no clue and no information about specifically when or where you need to go to advance, just saying things like "Charm Davy" with no information on how to proceed. Hours (real world time) clicking every possible link over and over and over again because there is no clue as to what to do next is not fun and leads to little if any progress as there are at many points in the game one and only one specific location at one specific time that does anything new. Never mind the many places in the game there is an unspoken time limit (itself inconsistent; you have only a few days to do mom, but the press conference can be triggered whenever, leaving players uncertain as to what they need to hurry on and what they can do later). It's not playable as a game with this level of information.

I want to explore every nook and cranny of the excellent writing and pictures of this game, but the grind and utter lack of any guidance destroy my ability to proceed. Seeing the same content HUNDREDS of times while trying to chance into something new simply ruins the experience. I simply cannot find any way to proceed except by brute force chance too often.

Hey dude there is a folder called help you have a walkthrough link (Will find about 90% of walkthrough) for every path and gender you choose. One top of that to reduce the grind you have access to say no to those puzzles and also have option at start to have whole map unlock also there are cheats from which you can charm the characters. See their location and move to it. Can transfer item to your inventory. give yourself spell and move to whatever location you want. I dont think game gets more easy then that. Yes the notes could be bit improved; but walkthrough and bit of reading makes it quite manageable, being playing this game for nearly 3 years now.

I keep adding more hints and expanding on things here and there. It is difficult at times for me to know where to add more information when I know exactly what to do and how to proceed

You mentioned around the possessions of Gina and Mother Superior about not knowing how to proceed. I am add some more information/clues there. Are there any other particular areas you found yourself lost and needed more information?
