Title: Wrench in the book
Post by: Rkfan101 on May 13, 2014, 07:07:30 pm
So i know where all three wrenches having had to watch a walk through however I can't turn the pages on the book to get the third wrench, I'm using a galaxy s3 so that might be an issue, have tried restarting the game and it didn't help, any suggestions?

I've never played Machinarium on a touchscreen, so this is just a guess:
instead of "tapping" the book to activate the animation of turning pages you may need to tap~hold~swipe, like if you had a physical book open in front of you and were turning the pages with your index finger.  Tapping & holding is the same technique you'll eventually have to use to turn cranks, pedal gizmos, and press seeds later in the game.   ;)

Ya tried the tap hold swipe thing, and it's a no go he just puts the book away

Rkfan101,
This happens on iPad as well. What worked for the iOS version was to leave the book, do something else (like grab one of the other wrenches or walk around a little) and then walk back to it and try again. Hoping that works also for Android. Maybe? Hopefully?

Thanks Lamkin!  @Rkfan101, I was going to suggest that you chat up the Big Wrench Guy. (maybe he'll give you one of the three you need and you can move on with the game?)

I dont know whether it's still unanswered, but on the mobile version, there's an option to enable the curser, this gives you the ability to turn the pages.
