I'm not sure where exactly you are, but try talking to the NPCs once more. They might have something new to say.

I'e exhausted my conversations with everyone, except the sculptor. Trying to distract him to steal the hammer, but no luck

Spoiler ahead:

He'll realise that the hammer is missing, because its usual spot is empty ...

And you might find a (not so big) fan of your vegetables.

Not really a spoiler, if you think about it... I've already tried giving it to the sheep. it just doesn't want them, and that's the end of that. can't sheer the sheep cus of old man, can't take hammer, can't use pebbles... Tried putting the short stick in place of hammer, doesn't work either

Maybe someone knows what the sheep likes?

As for the hammer: You are on the right track. But he will see everything in front of him. If he'd turn around for some reason though ...

regarding the sheep - you already got what it likes. And to get what you want from it, you need to wait until the guy is less attentive.

yeah, tried shearing it when the old man says ZZZZZ, no go. tried lo lure the sheep farther with the acorns, no go. tried to make him go see Iulia, the same, giving him herbs, wine, whatever... sometimes, what seems to be very logical to the game developer, lacks the same logic for other people

Feed the sheep when the old man is already sleeping. If you wait too long for him to fall asleep, the sheep is hungry again.

here's the thing: having a flow-down inventory and making quick moves is never ideal, especially if using a trackpad on a laptop. Having a visible inventory reduces frustration and provides for a much better gaming experience. Also, autosave is essential in a game this size, with so much dialog.

Like I said already, the game froze, won't restart, and I saved a while back anyway, so not going to finish. Sadly, because I really liked the graphics.

I know you already gave up, but just to clarify: quick moves are not necessary for this puzzle (or any puzzle in our game). I think I hadn't expressed myself well. It is just about doing things in the right order.

Although we understand your frustration (especially with the game freezing), please bear in mind that this is a jam game, developed from scratch within 14 days. Needless to say, it is not perfect.

aaaand, the game froze. not replaying :(

Sorry to hear that you had technical issues.
Could you help us out finding the problem by telling us when the game froze and what version you are playing (browser or downloadable)?
Thanks anyway for trying our game. ;-)

At the hammer taking ordeal. I tried bringing down the inventory to put the hammer in the drawing, and it froze. Tried reopening a saved game, to no avail. The woman walks in place on the screen, but nothing else is happening. MacOS, Chrome both latest updates

yep, he's talking to his wife, but I can't walk away with the hammer while he's doing that, nor can I use the hammer on anything in the inventory or even to smash his skull

!!!SPOILER BELOW!!!:

You have to place the short stick from the firewood salesman on the hammer while the Sculptor's back is turned, so he thinks his hammer is still there.
