How can I get past the Venus flytrap?
- There are two ways. The more straightforward way is to kill it. The knowledge of how to kill it comes from the scrap of paper in Trent/Tiffany's cell. See the previous question.
- A second way to get past the flytrap is to trap it.
- Don't go on unless you've been to Cleveland.
- You can set a trap at the tree hole (Fork, of Sorts) using stuff you've seen in Cleveland.
- Put the trellis over the tree hole...
- ...and the leaves over the trellis.
- If the flytrap sees you setting the trap, it won't fall for it, and therefore won't fall into it. "Shake off" the flytrap by going to the clearing. Then return to the tree hole, set the trap, go to the jungle to attract the flytrap again, and finally return to the fork and wait a few turns.
Is the untangling cream important?
- Yes.
- Don't go on unless you have the odd machine.
- Don't go on unless you understand what the odd machine does.
- Have you seen any use for unangling cream?
- It's on Mars...
- It's in the Ruined Castle area...
- See the question about King Mitre.
How can I get out of the tree hole?
- There's no reason to ever get into the tree hole.
- But if you do, you can climb out by standing on the stool or by standing on Trent/Tiffany. If you don't have the stool, or if you're alone, you're stuck.
What is the can of stain for?
- Have you read what it says on the can?
- It's for staining those black circles black. Of course, it's possible that all the ones you've seen are already black.
- See the question about the white circle at the Oasis in the Mars section.
What can I give the salesman to get his machine?
- There are no clues in the story about this. You'll have to try everything you can find.
- OFFER THE FLASHLIGHT TO THE SALESMAN.
How does the odd machine work?
- Have you examined it?
- You can put one item at a time in its compartment.
- You can only turn it on while it's closed.
- It's a TEE remover. Think about that for a while.
- Try using the odd machine on a number of different items.
- The odd machine removes any "T" from the name of the thing you use it on.
- For example, open the odd machine. Put the basket in it. Close the machine. Turn it on. Open it. You'll find that the basket has been turned into a baske.
- You'll also find that you can't carry things around in a baske the way you could in a basket.
- The odd machine is a lot of fun, but it's also needed to solve one puzzle. You'll find out more when you get to that puzzle.
Can I get into the house?
- The doors are locked and you cannot unlock them.
- How would you normally get into someone's house?
- Knock on the door (either front or back).
How can I get the rubber hose out of the cage?
- Have you tried to bend the bars?
- You'll go ape solving this puzzle.
- WAIT a bit once you've gotten to the Laboratory.
- You end up switching identities with the gorilla of your sex, and can now easily get the rubber hose. But, unfortunately, you're now trapped in the cage and in the body of a gorilla! See the next question.
Egad! I'm stuck in the cage in the body of a gorilla!
- Have you tried to bend the bars as a gorilla?
- You need a little more energy...
- ...like you might get from a sugar rush...
- ...from eating the chocolate you were given in your cell!
- Before the mad scientist straps you down to the slab, give the chocolate to one of the gorillas, or just put it in the cage.
- Wait until the mad scientist transfers you to the body of the gorilla and leaves the room. (You can facilitate his leaving by getting erotic with your mate.) Now, eat the chocolate, bend the bars, and leave the cage with the rubber hose.
- You still need to get back into your own body, of course. How did the mad scientist cause the transfer?
- The red power switch, of course! Throw the switch and you'll be back in your own body.
- But don't forget to untie yourself first, or you'll be trapped on the slab when you get back in your own body!
Is the Vizicomm Booth important?
- Yes.
- It's broken and can't be repaired, so you can't make any calls. But there's something you can get in the booth.
- Push the coin return knob...
- ...then look in the coin return box.
- This ten marsmid coin will come in very handy.
How can I get off Venus?
- Using the black circle at the Rocky Clifftop.
- There's also a black circle beyond the flytrap.
