I'm going to try again Rushes, If any problems I'll be back to ask. Thanks

Watch the above for what I mean

When you initially take the cap off from the tank you need the wrnech.
Then you take it off and place it on the metal cover and get kerosene.
Then you pour kerosene in the tank.
Take the cap from the metal cover and place it back on the tank - You do not need the wrench for this part.

In the You tube movies - the sequence is as I and Rushes stated above.

Presumably, you have the lever since you tied the line on to it.
You have the lit cig inserted in the tube.
You have started the whoe setup using the belt on the axle.

Please replay and see.

Yes I've done all that but soon as I click on the belt that is on the wheel it says this..

I think the game has gone screwy or something because I have '2' filler caps!

Then click the filler cap again after you placed it on - keep us posted.

- Missed that 2 filler caps post.
Gee. Best to go back to the start of the shed and replay the whole setup again. That should clear the problem.

Hello MaG,I'm trying to scan the playing card. I've scanned the front of the card , turned it over and scanned the back.But after the shooting test for Wang and Nicole I went back to the laboratory and used the Wang's terminal but I can't see the back of the card on the computer, just the front. I rescanned the front and the back of the playing card a few times but nothing doing, just the front of the card is showned. Can you help me please? (I did report to Ruth about the shooting exercise before returning to the lab.) Is it possible thet there are some bugs?Sorry about disturbing you with my problem; I've found what I did wrong. I was taking off the playing card and reversed it and put it back into the scanner and used the scan for a second time;but I just had to clic on the card with the right side of the mouse while it was still in the scanner, close the top and pushed the blue button. Then Nicole said:"I've scanned both sides of the card". So I can continue the game. Just explained in detail so other members could have the same problem. Sorry about that. Sali

Glad that you found out what's holding you back. Enjoy the game.

MaG, it's me again! I'm at the shooting area after succeeding opening the shutter door. I see the gun, the button and the slot for tokens but I can't find the plasric tile lying just above the button. Could you tll me exactly where it stands and what color it is? Thank you very much. Sali

sali, did you beat the shooting game yet? Your prize will drop down for you to take, and along with it the yellow plastic tile which lands on the counter - you can't miss it.

This is really wierd. I was expecting a load of posts about the the "seed" puzzle and havent seen any. Came to it yesterday, looked at the walkthrough, messed about with it for half an hour - no success. Today I tried again - flicking between the pic in the walkthrough and the game and not only can I still not solve it I cant even get a *single* piece in the right place. They seem to be at a different angle to the ones in the pic. Anyone spotted a more detailed solution? I get the feeling this is just one of those puzzles I have a blind spot for.

Hi mj2c,

Double-clicking on a piece will reverse it. Once I discovered that trick, it helped me no end. (Right-clicking will rotate, but I'm sure you know that already.)

Hi, Im stuck at the crane-bomb sequence, I can make the tools work on the screws, can anyone help me?
thank to robrob for your guide!

Hi MAKA, to GameBoomers.

Right-click on your screwdriver in inventory to examine it in close-up. Then pick up one of the tips (in this case the round tip) and click it onto the screwdriver while still in close-up. The two items will combine. Now you should be able to use the screwdriver.

Thanks Rushes, I would have been all day without knowing that.

You're welcome. Hope that helps you solve the puzzle now.

sali,

I am having the same trouble with the playing card in the scanner, too. I can't turn it over to see the back of it. I have read the walkthroughs but I keep getting messages like "so many active areas require long analysis and I am not that patient" or " I need to check out more areas" or asomething like that. I don't understand what you did to get through this part. I have tried it several times but keep getting the same results.

Thanks.

From walkthrough:

Open the scanner. Place the card inside. Close the lid and press the blue scanning button.

Open the lid. Right click to turn the card over.- while it is still in the scanner. Close the lid and press the blue scanning button.

Open the lid and take the card out. Close the scanner.

Look close at empty evidence bag. Use the card on the evidence bag to place it inside

Hey everybody! First time poster, long time reader on this forum!

I seem to be stuck in the lab, I can't leave because Nicole keeps telling me "I should leave everything as it was, otherwise Wang will be picking on me again". I just analyzed the seed and the box wrapping. I have the two maps printed out and in my inventory. The scanner lid is closed, I have the tweezers in my inventory and I can't put them on the worktable or where the microscope is, it doesn't seem to be an option. The microscope's light is turned off. I can't remove the sample from the microscope, again that doesn't seem to be an option either. The box wrapping is secured in a plastic bag in my inventory and I can't leave it on either tables.

I have no idea what to do, I've tried everything I can think of but nothing works. Nicole refuses to leave the lab. I've read the two walkthroughs on here, followed them through and neither address this problem. I also checked out the walkthrough that came with the game and there is no mention of leaving something as it was before I exit the lab. I'm about to give up on this game because I can not progress. So, this is my last hope. Any suggestions? Has anyone had this problem?

Maybe I am in the wrong place. I scanned my fingerprints and then tried to use the cards. Should I be using a different scanner because I can't turn the cards over in this one?

Hi sayra, to GameBoomers. Hmm, I'm not sure what your problem here might be, either. Would you like a saved game just past this point?

gatsbygirl, you're at the wrong machine. Where you're at currently is the database where you examine what you've scanned. The actual scanner is the machine just to the left of the server rack.

Sayra,

Tell us what is in your inventory please.

Thanks Rushes! After lookig at all of the walkthroughs, I finally got through this part. Now I am at the Sapper and I can't get the joystick to work so that I can manipulate the robot's arm. It won't move. I can't talk to him again because it says something about not having anything to say. Any ideas about what I might be doing wrong?

Are you click-hold-moving the joystick?

No,I wasn't and that helped. However, I can't get it to go right to the dial so that I can put the number combination in. The arm stops right before it or goes beyond it. It alsmost seems to freeze and I can't move it even with the click/hold movement.
