I just saw the game 2 days ago and have already poured over 50$ into
the damned thing. I havn't yet seen what you are talking about, but
I have a couple theories.
1. Try to attack the walls. Some can be knocked down or destroyed.
2. It could be a glitch in the game. I've noticed that items are
randomly placed each game. Maybe it's not checking to see if the
location of an item is accessible to a player.
This is one of the most awesome video games since the laser disk games.
I hope to see more hints and info before I go broke.
