Title: Stuck at the gate, d'oh!
Post by: xeronimo on October 19, 2009, 08:53:58 pm
Ok, seems I'm stupid ...

I'm stuck at the second screen, the one with the gate to the city. I've got my blue 'hat' on but when I pull the thingie to call the guard, the guard still refuses to let me in. Seems I need the light bulb from the lamp nearby. But how do I get it?? I can climb the lamp post a little but I can't do anything there ... ?

Heeeeeeeeeeelp! ;)

Thanks.

see if you can do anything to the ladder rungs below you when you climb up the lamp.

as a general rule, when you are stumped, try clicking on everything you can think of to see if something happens.

Is it really that much easier to post a thread in this forum than check out the in-game walkthrough?  ;D

Seriously, if you can't be bothered by shooting a couple of spiders, all the walkthrough pages can be found online (http://baaka.freehostia.com/machinarium/index.htm).

This scene isn't THAT tricky ;)
