I am so happy. I don't know if it is how I played this game or if it was just pure luck.

I had another game going and it got to the point that Claire would not make rope or go anywhere. I don't know really what happened, I thought I was very nice to her. I erased an awesome game, but I could never get the darn second oil drum.

How I did it is, stayed at the first beach with her for the first 3 days got all the firewood I could got our stamina up. Then I went to make the log walkway over to where James is came back and went to bed left the next morning for James again with Claire, stayed there for 3 or 4 days, came back to cave one and just stayed there until the first oil drum came up. Then I didn't go into the first cave where Claire was, I felt bad because I didn't give her enough water, but she was fine. I went back to James' cave with him and I dropped the oil barrel in the cave. Then we just stayed at his cave for about 5 days, had a day with leaves blowing around. The next morning went out to the left through the door to the other side of the beach and what do you know, another barrel.

So now, I just wait until tomorrow to venture further.

I need to get back to the lab and open all of the doors back to get around the island. I had all the doors opened but one, the one with the water source.

I love this game, but I still think LIB2 is the best one.
