Hint Guide

Beginning

• Where do I go?
  

  It's up to you. Explore the island until you know what you need to do.

• What are Marker Switches?
  

  Those are the little switches you find around certain structures and landmarks. Count them up and put them in the fore chamber by the dock, like the note says.

• What is the Tower Rotation?
  

  The Tower is the big mountain behind the library. You can get a good view of it from the gear platform. To rotate it, use the map in the library.

• What happens when the line turns red (on the map in the library)?
  

  That means you have stumbled on to a clue. Go to the tower to get that clue. "How do I get into the library," you say? That you need to find out yourself. Hint, the door is in the library.

Mechanical Age

• Where are the red and blue pages?
  

  Check for hidden doors in the main rooms. Like other ages, each page is in each brother's room.

• What's the point of the elevator?
  

  Press the middle button and get out. You should now be in front of the tower controls, just like the imager in the Achenar's room. Be sure to note the sound for each direction.

Stoneship Age

• How do I get in these tunnels?
  

  You need to pump the water out. The pump should be easy to find.

• What's this piece of paper for?
  

  You need the contents to finish the game. Write it down exactly as you see it, so when you find the other half you'll be able to get the whole note.

• Which button do I press in the room between the tunnels?
  

  The button that represents the lighthouse. You need to use the telescope to find the degree. Then press the button at that same degree. A little math is required.

Channelwood Age

• How do I get these elevators to work?
  

  Go to the rocky island and play around with the controls. Then use the controls on the pipe to guide the power to the elevator.

• How do I use the elevator on the higher story and power it at the same time?
  

  Use the stairway next to it. A lever in one of the huts opens the door.

Selenitic Age

• How do I find the combination for the shed in the front?
  

  Turn the 5 sounds on and find them on the contraption at the middle island. Then press the bottom button. You need to find them perfectly. If you hear the sound, look at the arrows. If one of them blinks, press it until none of them blink.

• Where's the dripping water sound?
  

  It's right of the burning fire landmark.

• Where do I go in the track train?
  

  Use the sounds to guide you. Remember the Mechanical Age? Just go any direction, but if you don't hear a sound anymore, backtrack and go another way.

Ending(s)

• Which brother do I free?
  

  It's a hard choice. They both say don't touch the green book, but...

• Where do I find the missing page?
  

  Use the 2 pieces of the paper from Stoneship and Channelwood ages.

Rime Age

Only available in realMyst.

• In the Rime journal, where have you seen the device pictured in the back of the book?
  

  Try playing with the image viewer in the dockside chamber again. Particularly the topographical map. Try to walk around the image viewer. Go to the rocket ship area and go along the left side of the walkway. The Rime linking book is revealed above you.

• How do I open the door inside the hut?
  

  It's pretty cold in the room and the door looks frozen. Try turning on the furnace. If it won't turn on, maybe there's go gas running to it. Still not warm enough? Closing the door would be a good idea.
