Hints

Hints from the classic games

Stuck in the game? The classic Magnetic Scrolls games included a built-in hint system which was based on cypheric hints in the game documentation. Those had to be fed to game and provided help with increasing accuracy (ok, mostly). Collected on this page you can find the deciphered hints. Use them only as a last resort! Do not underestimate the satisfaction of solving the games _without_ help. Please keep in mind that these hints were tailored for the classic way of playing the games - typing and guessing suitable commands. Some hints specifically try to help with accomplishing that, but have limited use when playing with the new interface of the remastered edition. Nevertheless, the hints might give a gentle push into the right direction in case you are lost.
