Thats some helpful info, but I haven't been able to figure out how to get the screwdiver. I assume it is from the robot. What I have is the useless black box, metal thing, toilet paper ROLL, pillow, and the melted green cup. I have got the water overflowing into the main room. I though that would electricute the robot, but it didn't soooooo all my other attempts have failed and I need a hint if someone has one. Thanx!

Rachel: You have to put the melted cup back, and get a fresh one. Put the pillow on the cammera....when the robot comes in, use the cup on the robot, and get the screwdriver from the robot.

Use the syringe on the sleeping guard and take his card.

To open the other door you:

Use the saw on the guard and use his hand on the door.

Go back to the room with the guard and you will now be able to take the magazine. Then give it to the caretaker.

Thank you, Peaceman!
Got through it finally - well, the game is not everybody's taste, I suggest, but it shows impressingly the will of the creator to go his own way.
Taking out the vomiting man, the cut-off hand and the magazine's consequences wouldn't hurt the entire message - but would make the creator a rich man in case of selling the game. Fortunately he seems to be one of the seldom species not being interested in money.
Respect! ;)

What items do you have?

If you have the water pistol:

Spoiler
You paint it black and you can just walk through the door.

If not:

Spoiler
Lower the crate that the storage guy was moving and open it. Take a water pistol and follow the step above.

Can't beat the laser door puzzle! What am I supposed to do with those buttons?
Have tools, primary stuff and mirror.
If key is to press buttons to make right color sequence, then I wonder why the game isn't commercial yet. This looks helluva similar to standard LucasArts copy protection... >:(

edit: Oh, already got it. Just didn't expect that to be sooo easy  ;) ...and missed one large hotspot...

I have the same situation and I don't seem to be understanding how to get past the first set of lasers.  I have the
Spoiler
square black box, metal bracket, inner toilet paper roll, empty cup,  screwdriver,  hammer, broken piece of mirror,  maintenance manual, and lens.
[close]
I need to somehow get into the back panel of that robot for some item i might need to be able to use the mirror? to reflect the lasers.  

I am trying to kill the backup lasers in the first prison cell at the beginning.  Am I overlooking something very simple?  :)  It must be a simple oversight here.

How enter this ****** torture room? I already have painted water pistol, but character says "i won't go there unarmed". Using pistol on doors don't work either.

I am having trouble opening the second panel on the robot and how do I get rid of the lasers? I keep on being told to aim the lasers at something but what? My inventory so far consists of the black box, empty cup, metal bracket, broken mirror, screwdriver, hammer, toilet roll. What do I still need?

Title: Re:Flashbax trouble

you need to block the basin withe the toilet paper and run the tap. This will electrocute the robot as it is on its way back.
