You can put a LOT of stuff in it, drop it, and no matter where you go it shows up on your inventory a few turns later. This is how to get all the tools into the little room. I think. I never did get very far in this game, actually... I no longer even have it, but I recently started playing again when I found a board which has a large number of old Infocom classics ONLINE... Which reminds me: I have a hint request of my own. I am also trying to play Suspended (one of my favorites) but I've long since lost the map I had and the transcript of the game which gave me lots of hints... anyway, could someone at LEAST help me and tell me where to get the ramp to put in that hallway - and maybe remind me how to fix Iris and if possible just send me a map? . <<<>>> (or tell me where to get one, whatever) -- |Ben Scott, professional goof-off and consultant at The Raster Image, Denver| |Internet bscott@nyx.cs.du.edu, FIDO 1:104/421.2 or Arvada 68K (303)424-9831| |"My brothers and sisters all hated me,'cause I was an only child!"-Weird Al| |"Do I detect the smell of burning martyr?" - Basil Fawlty | *AMIGA POWER* |
