Walkthrough for �The Shivah�

The game starts off in the synagogue with the cantor singing, then the rabbi giving up on his congregants. He then walks inside his office, when the cantor mentions that a cop came to investigate. After talking with the cop, go on the computer with rstone/yenta and search for �jack lauder.� One of the results reveals his residence. Once you open that email, log off and leave the synagogue. The Lauder residence then appears on the map.

Go to the house, where Mrs. Lauder starts acting coldly to the Rabbi. YOU NEED TO SAY that �you�re making amends.� Otherwise, she will call the cops on you, since she�s so angry she would easily pin the blame on the �hateful� rabbi and the game ends there. Ask her about the business, and she will tell you everything, including the business name and its roots. Then, leave the house and go to the store. On the computer, type in the password �sharma.� Then check all the emails and ledgers. Then, log off and in clues, drag JDM to Joe DeMarco.

Go back to the Lauder residence. Ask Mrs. Lauder for information about ethan g, ethan Goldberg, joe demarco, etc. any clue you have so far. After that, go back to your synagogue, log back in as rabbi stone, and enter 2 searches. One on �Ethan Goldberg� and one on �Beth Tikvah.� �Ethan Goldberg� will reveal 2 emails. One of them reveals where he was shot and therefore the place will then appear on your map. Beth Tikvah gives you the address to Beth Tikvah, where Rabbi Zelig is the Rabbi, and that will reveal the synagogue on the map. DO NOT first go to the pub, as too many make that mistake at first. Go to the synagogue. Speak with the rabbi, and afterwards he will give you his card (if he doesn�t, keep saying anything until he finally does). Then, when you go to the pub, when you walk in another person walks in with you. You ask him stuff based on your clues and see what he says. Of course, ask if he�s Joe Demarco, if he�s Jewish, and ask him stuff until he takes you outside to the train station to �discuss� things more. After you fight, you have the option to either throw him onto the tracks or spare his life. I only about when you spare his life. You simply knock him out. Anyways, go back to you�re synagogue and computer, log in and search for �Zelig.� There�s a result that reveals the name of his dog. Log off your email and log in as rabbiz (from the business card he gave you), and enter the dog�s name (Dodger). Check all his emails. Then, go back to the Lauder residence, where you�ll find the place a mess, and a note is pinned onto the rug covering the mirror. Read the note, and you�ll see where Mrs. Lauder is taken hostage. Go there. Rabbi Zelig is waiting with a gun, and Mrs. Lauder is bound and gagged. You�re then told that you will jump. Here, there are many different ways to end this game.

If you refuse to jump, Rabbi Zelig will shoot Mrs. Lauder, and Mrs. Lauder will not be with you when you end the game. Joe Demarco, if he�s still alive, will not come in to yell at Rabbi Zelig.

If you still refuse, he will then shoot you.

If you attempt to grab his gun, she will shoot and miss. The second time he will shoot you and hit you, the third time he will shoot kill you, ending the game.

If you just agree to jump WITHOUT saving Joe DeMarco�s life, I don�t know. Try that out.

If you agree to jump and Joe Demarco�s life was spared, he will come, scream at Rabbi Zelig, and be shot by him after you open the window pane.

Now comes the tricky part: the roof. First, stall him so Rabbi Zelig walks towards you an inch. Then, �grab his gun� twice, to which you will be shot on both arms. That way you will be near the rabbi. Then, go onto the ledge, and �admire the view

,� so that the Rabbi Zelig can be distracted. Then �grab his gun� and get back onto the ledge. If you jump, or if you try to grab his gun in any other way, you will die and the game ends. Next comes with the fist fighting. Ask Rabbi Zelig questions. If he answers with a question, do not punch, or else he will block and then punch you back. Only punch him after he answers with an answer. If you get knocked out too much (either 1. because you punched him after he answered with a question and he punched you back, or, 2. you asked him too many questions that has �question answers,� prompting him to punch you). After you have him cornered, you have the option of saving his life or throwing him off the ledge. There are different endings to this.

If you saved Mrs. Lauder�s life and saved Rabbi Zelig�s life (knocking him out), she will go with you to the police station and have Rabbi Zelig arrested. She then joins your congregation.

If you saved Mrs. Lauder�s life and threw Rabbi Zelig off the roof, Mrs. Lauder will be horrified, and while thanking you, will not want to have anything to do with you anymore.

If Mrs. Lauder was shot and Rabbi Zelig was thrown off the roof Rabbi Zelig will be charged with killing everyone and his own death will be ruled a suicide.

If Mrs. Lauder was shot and Rabbi Zelig�s life was saved, Rabbi Zelig will awake and have you arrested, throwing you in jail.

If you kill Joe Demarco, Rabbi Zelig will kill Mrs. Lauder regardless. So you will have to kill Rabbi Zelig or else have him report you to the cops.

The end.
