Endgame: Stuff I got answers from the wiseman for: Me, past, clouds, stone/rock, great oak, captain/catchers, cloth, rudowski/authors/brothers, force, bird, sleep, vision/future. That's all I got! There might be more!
Try "spoon" :) By the way there is a hidden easter egg in the game related to the captain story. You can use some words to get a slightly different response.

FANTASTIC. When I play point and clicks, I usually get terribly outfoxed by fairly straightforward problems, but for me, this game seemed to hit a sweet spot where I could just sit and think for a moment or two, look around once or twice, and get it done shortly :D That is really hard to do when making a point and click, I know this. That spells major props to you fellows! Not to mention that I love the entire feel of the game, visually, interface-wise, musically, and idea-wise. Thank you so much!! I enjoyed myself :DD

Doesn't work on Explorer? Really? I know maybe I am lame for using but this IS my work PC. So much for playability. 1/5
I think it's something with local storage settings in Chrome. Couple of people had the same problem / bad luck. Unfortunatelly I haven't seen that issue yet on my own eyes, and don't know the step by step solution for this problem.

Very good game, beautiful artwork, atmospheric music. The universe has the right balance between surrealism and realism, just great. I haven't felt this funny feeling since I played the Myst series - well done :) .

At first I was upset that a beautiful game like this didn't have any achievements on Kongregate. But then I realized that I didn't need to have points from achievements to enjoy this. It's an inspiring game with nice, fun twists to it too. 5/5!
Nice to hear it, and thank you for your forbearance. I’ve even try the API needed for stats and achievements but stuck with cross-domain issue. The kong developers promised to help but I still waiting :-(

Not working on firefox 13. And I'm not downloading another browser to play a single game if I can play all other games in the world.
Thank you. I’ve even try the API needed for stats and achievements but stuck with cross-domain issue. The kong developers promised to help but I still waiting :-(

Great game! The music while on the Cloud Eater is my favourite. It's so light and happy =) I really hope she keeps Zephyr in the end though haha! I would! He's such a big, lovable... turtle-like... thing

Some things I found that you can ask the wiseman:
stone, cloud, great oak, me, bird, nest, connection, force, past, future. There's also the senseless answer to the empty question (write nothing). Maybe there's more, try to find them!

People say when you look at clouds, you see the thoughts of the gods. Funny, cause to me it seems all they ever think about is clouds.

Really a bit of fun once you're about a half hour in. Visuals and music are lovely, puzzles are well-spaced with good flow into the story (though I probably tried the tiles a good 20 times or so). Well done! 4/5 :)

wow. i am questioning the meaning of life now. please hang on, i'll be a few breaths. (By the way I LOVE that system of time and sort of "god" idea, it was very nice!)

you guys should have named it "the Trader of Stories - a grain of truth". if i knew it was a sequel, i'd have tried it right away. as it is, i just happened to stumble upon the game by fortunate accident.
anyhow, great game. loved the story, loved the ambience, not too easy but also not annoyingly difficult. will be hoping for more sequels.
Here you can find all background story about those games: http://traderofstories.blogspot.com . The reason we don't use the 'the Trader of Stories' is that our future games not always will be about Myosotis. We have a lot of great characters to present.

... I got my knotted string before I tied my string across the cleft... and... now I can't use it because it's not in my inventory. So I have to completely restart the game to finish it. :(
in game we have a knotted string and a rope - it should be enough for everyone :-) And as Myo says: "This string is too thin to be of any practical use when crossing this crack..."

It's been few days that I see this game on Kong and really want to try it, but it says that my browser doesn't meet the requirements because of the local storage.
I'm on Chrome v20, local storage 100% authorized.
Any idea?
sometimes in chrome localstorage is blocked / turn off / waiting for user permission - try to change the browser settings. Ah but you said "100% authorized". Hmm try direct access outside kong then.

This was a great game and a huge step forward from Trader of Stories. I can't wait for the next part of the story. Great use of minigames!

Outstanding game. I'm a big fan of the first game in the series, and this installment was well worth the wait. Will there be a part III?
Yes, yes - we've learn our lesson. In next game we'll implement whole bunch of them, all in some fun and curious ways :-) For now walkthrough have to be enough: http://jayisgames.com/archives/2012/05/the_trader_of_stories_a_grain_of_truth.php#walkthrough

The art style is what really makes me love this game. It's more like reading an interactive story than a mundane point-and-click game. Btw, also plays beautifully on the Playbook, for the non-kool aid drinkers. ;)

=/ So I dunno how everyone else plays point and click games, but I like clicking... fast and a lot. I've played waaaaaay too many escape the room games. Those delays when you click and the girl says something are awful. You should just do it like every other game and have the text show up but don't darken the screen and allow me to continue playing. I really can't play with it as is. I just don't have the patience to wait five times longer for her to say something than it takes to actually move my mouse to click the object she's speaking about.

*SPOILER ALERT*
I have a prediction that Myosotis is in fact the girl she saw in the vision and she was destined to destroy the great oak or something and the guardian guy tried to kill her to stop her but instead she just lost her memories so he kept a watchful eye on her, and that is also why he doesn't want her to learn of her past.

When I'm speaking to the wise man it said "Ask About ____" so I kept typing in things like "the great oak" and "the clouds" until I figured out that "the" is necessary. You should change it to "What about the ____" to prevent other people from getting confused.

Seriously you work with Chrome and Firefox, but you block Opera? Can you please explain why? At any rate I guess I wont be playing this game.
I’m so sorry that Opera don’t make it on that list. We tried a lot to make it possible and it was so close but the lack of css properties ‘pointer-events’ support for html elements make our doom.
