This is a bare bones walkthru. There may be avenues other than the ones
I
have listed here; this is simply the path I took to finish the game.
The Tower Cells
--------------------
You wake up here with nothing in your inventory. Walk to the lower left
hand of your screen to the switch and turn off the siren if you wish.
Take some time to chat with your fellow inmates. You gain a bit of
background information on Dr. Morgan.
Walk into the second room and pick up the towel.
Go upstairs and look at the large angel statue and the lock in the base.
Stay on this level.
Walk to the far right side of the screen. Use the towel on the high
voltage wire to slide into the control tower. Open the door and step
inside.
Look at the TV and VCR. Hook up the wires in order from left to right:
red, yellow, black. Press the power button and then play.
The short circuit will open the safe. Read the file and take the key
above the cabinet.
Walk outside and use the control panel to extend the bridge.
Use the key on the lock in the base of the angel statue.
The Innocent Abandoned
-------------------------------
On this level, try to speak with all of the children in depth.
Talk to the two of the little kids playing on the sidewalk next to you.
They won't talk until you tell them your name. Walk over to the little
girl jumping rope on your left. A 3rd flashback will make you remember
that your name is Max. The rest of the kids will talk to you now.
Go into the church and read the files next to the door.
(Make note of the sign in front of the church)
Go into city hall and read the files there.
Go across the bridge and into the house next to the barn. Read the
diary
and newspaper you find there.
Return to the main part of town.
In the cemetery, the kid with the third arm will challenge you to a game
of hide and seek if you ask him why he is in the cemetery and about his
secret weapon. Take this challenge. Go into the shed here and take the
crowbar.
One kid is in the barrel next to the red herring building. Another is
in
the locked schoolhouse. Use the crowbar on the door. Ewww. Check the
church behind the front pew. Another is in the tree between city hall
and
the church. The last one is under the bed in the Driscoll house.
When you find all of them, talk to Dennis. He will tell you to look for
his secret weapon, Carol. Take the shovel next to the girl sitting by
the
statue. Return to the cemetery and dig up C. Driscoll's grave. Lumpy
will take Carol from you.
Talk with Dennis again and he will give you a key to the general store.
Unlock the door on the right. Read the files here. Take the empty gas
can.
Outside, ride the middle "spring pig". Take it.
Drop the pig in the gap in the bridge. Talk to Maria.
Open the gate to the pumpkin patch. The combination is 451 (remember
the
sign?)
Pick up the scythe. This begins an action sequence. The faster your
heart beats, the closer you are to being dead. Walk down the path and
click on the birds as they try to attack you.
When you get to the scarecrow, you must smash all the pulsating pumpkins
before you can kill it.
If you get killed, you start from the beginning, but everything you have
killed is still dead.
Look at the comet and generator. Open up the tractor and take the
jumper
cables. Open the barn door and have a nice chat with Mother.
Afterwards, take the wrench that is on the floor of the barn. Walk over
to the area between the barn and the pumpkin patch. Knock over the
wooden
plank and cross over.
Go to the water fountain by city hall. Use the wrench on the hose.
Take
the hose and walk all the way down to the edge of town. Walk to the
left
of the barrier and talk to the boy who is fishing. Then open the gas
tank
of the crashed car, use the hose and then the gas can on it to siphon
out
some fuel.
Walk back to the church and pick up one of the loose stones from the
garden. Throw the stone at the bell. The fishing boy will come in to
pray. You may now take his fishing pole.
Use it to fish out the lightning rod cross that has fallen into the
stream
by the intact bridge.
Go back to the barn. Use the lightning rod on the comet. Use the jump
cable on the generator and then connect it to the rod. Fuel up the
generator and power it up!
After you have toasted Mother, walk over to the intact bridge and speak
with Maria. She will lead you through the portal.
The Courtyard and Chapel
--------------------------------
Chat with everyone around here. Take note of the music and how each of
the patients is reacting to it. Talk to the hooded woman in front of
the
large double doors. Once you have finished talking, she will get up and
move to a different spot. Open the door and talk to a worshipping Norm.
Then speak with Preacher Bob, who will tell you that someone has stolen
a
holy cross. Walk over to the doctor's office all the way to the left.
Speak with the doc. Turn on the radio and listen to the news. Then
take
all the record off the table. Play "Belladonna in A Flat." The old man
in the tutu will begin to dance.
Walk over to the man and pick up the cross from the bench. Return it to
Bob, who will give you a broom as a reward.
Use this broom on the control panel outside the doc's office.
The purpose of this puzzle is to get all the water pressure to the
square
fountain in front of the church. There will be a gauge at the bottom
showing your progress. They are tagged by the shapes of the prospective
fountains they control.
Once you have the water pressure in the 2nd to last gauge to its highest
level, pull the chain and go to the big fountain. Look at the shape at
the bottom and talk to it.
The Circus of Fools
------------------------
Talk to the man laying at your feet. He will give you a pass to the
Squid
Squash. Then look through the binoculars and note the house across the
way.
Walk down the wooden path and into the hut on youLeave the study and
walk
up to the strange contraption. To power it up, use the pipe key on the
pipes on the upper right.
The object of this puzzle is to open up all the clasps so the stone will
drop into the hole. Good luck. :)
Once done, the door to the lab will open.
Take in the carnage, then play the tape machine on the desk.
Look at each of the chalkboards. Click the first letter of each
sentence.
Unscramble the letters so they read
SALVATION
THE YOUTH
KEY HIDES TO
Go over the voice lock and say: "YOUTH HIDES THE KEY TO SALVATION"
Walk into the lab. Be shocked and amazed.
The Hive
-----------
This game is getting really weird.
Take the ID harness off the dead drone.
Walk down to the hut down on your left. Touch the yellow orb and walk
through door.
Try to operate the control panel to your right. Looks like you'll need
more clearance.
Talk to the handsome young cyclops Gravin. Get the password for his
hut.
Take the pincher off the wall. Talk to the bug technician, and be sure
to
ask about the upgrade for your harness.
Leave the building and go down to the last hut. Enter with your new
password. Take the tools and the sledgehammer. Watch a little TV for
background info.
Walk up to the furnace room. Look at the patch on the pipe. Use the
sledgehammer on it. Pump the bellows. Take the arm from the
incinerated
drone. Look at the strange bug machine.
The object of this puzzle to match the shapes on the buttons with the
shapes generated by the combination red, green, or blue light and the
various levels of the bug's wing. Once you have matched all of them,
the
furnace will close.
Go back to the Gravin's hut. Speak with him about the furnace. Ask him
about upgrading your ID harness.
Go back and speak with Chik-Tok. Ask him to upgrade your ID again.
When
he asks you to verify your age, insert the incinerated bug's mechanical
arm into the scanner. Voila!
Go into the Queens chamber. Chat with the cyclops-bug. Use the pincher
on the bottles to take proof to the Gravin. Return to his hut. He will
take you into Gromna's hut.
Wait until he leaves, and then look at the chalkboard. The search his
pillow to find a key. Use this on the safe above his bed. Take the
sound
generator. Return to the Queen's chamber.
Use the sound generator on the oozing bug butt looking thing on the
right.
Talk to another cyclops-bug. Talk to the baby cyclops and listen to
their
song.
Go to the console on the left and try to recreate that sound.
Once you find yourself on the second level, talk to the female
cyclops-bug. Use the tools on the machine piece and go to the Great
Machine. Throw this part to the cyclops.
Return to the female cyclops-bug. On the far left, there is a rope.
Climb this to the third level. Watch the long winded public
announcement
and pry the second machine part off the queen. Jump through the portal
behind her.
Give the part to the cyclops.
The Morgue and Cemetery
--------------------------------
Look at the dead woman and have a pleasant conversation. Then look at
the
locked door.
I really couldn't tell you the point of this puzzle. You apparently
turn
the wheel on the top right until the gear reaches the top. Then you
either pull the lever under that left or right. Pulling it left will
bring the top left gear closer to the turning hinge thingy. You will
need
to repeat this several times, for both top and bottom. Just fiddle with
it until you get out. :)
Once out, walk past the boiler room and down into Dr. Morgan's office.
Read the papers on the fallen bookshelf. Take the bust, urn and
matches.
Look at the wall behind the fallen bookshelf. Throw the bust at it.
Again. Take the U pipe and turn on the gas.
Walk to the exit of the building, next to the two parallel pipes. Feel
them. Go into the boiler room and take the tools. Remove sections from
them both and replace them with the U pipe.
Return to the boiler room, work the control panel and fire up the
furnace!
Open the furnace door. Put body #7 onto the slab. Bake for 1 minute.
Open the door and collect the ashes with the urn. Don't forget the
glass
eye.
The morgue door is now defrosted. Open it up. Do you hear something?
Open up the top rightmost drawer. Talk to the old man. Ask about the
scratching.
Open all the other drawers and look at them by laying on the slabs. In
#7
you will notice some scratches. Use the matches to see them better.
Ask the old man about the scratches. Use the glass eye to decipher
them.
Walk out into the garden. Search for the old fallen, unreadable
tombstone. Use the ashes on it to read it.
Look for the moving tree. Talk to it. He will move aside and reveal a
statue. Take the prism from it.
Put it into the warm beam of light. The door to the little round
building
will open.
Another chat with Dr. Morgan. Once he is gone, look at the statue, the
globe, and the papers on the desk.
The papers here and the ones in his office reveal the pattern to input
into the Aztec Calendar.
The first is the sun over twin peaks.
The second in the rising sun.
The third is the sun over a semi circle curving up.
The fourth is an eye.
The fifth is a triangle.
The Lost Village
---------------------
Talk to the old woman who summoned you. Then leave the cave.
Make sure you talk to all the ghosts in the village. Ask their name and
station.
Walk past the water temple and up to the volcano. Speak with
Quetzalcoatl.
Knock over the statue to your right. Lava will flow down and make a
bridge to the water temple. Cross this bridge and look at the figures
on
the side of the temple and fiddle with them.
Walk to the hut. On the way, stop and speak with the ghost Tepictoc
guarding the totem in front of the wind temple. Ask him about water
temple. Keep talking to him until he mentions proving your intentions
by
delivering a necklace to his wife.
Walk into the village and speak with the old woman. Pick up the copper
bowel. Then find the cheiftan/mason. Ask him about the necklace and
his
missing daughter. Speak with his wife in the adjacent room.
In the room next to that, ask the weeping woman about her husband. Have
her explain the fisherman's creed.
Return to the Tepictoc and tell him about the necklace. He will let you
through.
Knock over the totem and cross over to the wind temple. Push aside the
boulders to find the missing daughter.
After returning her, go into the first room and ask her about the rock
and
the music. Go back to the wind temple. Look at the crystal and the
gongs. You need to ring the gongs in order from largest to smallest.
The
other gongs will keep ringing unless you enter in the wrong sequence.
The
vibration of the gongs ringing all at once will shatter the crystal.
Pick
up the wind totem.
Go to the water temple. Look at the figures on the side. They
symbolize
the fisherman's creed.
>From left to right, press 5, 3, 1, 2, 6, 4.
Enter the temple (if you go out accidentally, you will have to reenter
the
code.) Pick up the water totem.
Follow the path behind the jaguar temple to find the old witch doctor.
Speak with him and get information about the Pod of Might and the Rite
of
the Warrior. He will send you back to the mason.
Ask the mason about the warrior ritual. In turn, he will ask you to
name
the 6 warriors before you, in order from youngest to eldest. They are:
Xilonen, Ometoch, Tepictoc, Centeotl, Huitzilop, and Mixcoatl.
You will undergo the ritual to make you impervious to the elements.
Wade
through the lava and retrieve the pod from the tree. Give this to the
witch doctor.
After his sacrifice, talk to him once more about a mask. After he is
dead, collect his blood with the bowel. Walk back to his hut. Pick up
the heart and go to the jaguar temple. Make note of the carvings along
staircase.
Put the blood into the statue on the left and the heart into the one on
the right. Enter the temple.
Turn the dials along the back of the temple until they are in order of
the
carvings by the stair, from the bottom up.
They are the bull's head, the crescent moon, the infinity sign, the
face,
the star, the fish, and the circle with the plus sign in it.
Remove the jaguar totem.
Go to the place where the statue of Quetzalcoatl once stood. Put the
totems on the pedestal so that they correspond to the locations of the
temples in the village.
Go down into the hole.
The Maze
------------
Another puzzle. If you step into the pink electricity, you will be
transported back to the beginning. Watch for the patterns and time your
crossings. Make your way down to the control panel. Light up the first
and third circles. Pull the lever. A bridge will rise into place and a
block will get lifted out of your way. Look for the statue that is
holding its arms in the touchdown position. Push its arms down. Cross
the newly unblock path and make your way down to a lever. Pull it and
walk to the gate. Before going through the gate, lock it open by
pulling
the lever right next to it. Get the mask.
The Gauntlet
----------------
Read all of the tombstones until Jeddah's headless ghost appears. Go to
the pumpkins and listen to the melody. (Ring around the Rosy) Try to
recreate it. The pumpkins disappear and let you through. Get the skull
and give it to the ghost.
Go into your inventory and choose the comic book to become the cyclops.
Open the coffin. Get the angel head.
Choose the Aztec statue and cross the thorny path. Change back into the
cyclops and click on the carnival game. Note the color sequence.
Change into the Aztec warrior and click on the teeth flashing red,
yellow,
green, and blue (in that order).
Change into Sarah and climb up the clown's nose. Collect the wing and
climb down the nose again.
Continue down the path into the tower. Climb up the stairs and cross
the
spiderweb.
Choose the warrior character look at the panels on the floor. From top
to
bottom, step on in this order: the 2nd, 5th, 3rd, 1st, and 4th panel.
Look at the rock that comes into view.
Look at the impaled corpses and the wailing spirits above them. Click
on
each corpse, further impaling them until the collective screams shatter
the crystal. Take the other wing. Cross back over as Sarah and enter
the
hive chamber.
Look at the honeycombs and punch through them until you find an insect
pincher. Turn into the cyclops character and work the control panel.
Take the sound generator and use it on the maggots.
Open the grate and, as Sarah, climb into the hole.
As the warrior, climb the thorny path and cut the cord with the pincher.
Go back and collect the torso.
Go into the tower and assemble the angel.
Enter the portal that appears.
Morgan's Last Game
--------------------------
Last puzzle. The object is to navigate around the moving black goo to
get
to the statue holding the lighted orb. You have to accomplish this 3
times before the green fluid enters your veins. Again, look for the
patterns. Finish this puzzle and you're done! Sit back and enjoy the
closing movie.
