Title: Heart of Abraxas
Post by: desimaui on Thu 08/02/2007 05:04:21
Can I get some help with the above short game.
Spoiler
I can't figure out how to pick up the book that I knocked down from the shelf. I saw the pictures and remember some child hood photos but I cannot proceed until I pick up the book.

Thanks, do you know how to save this game? When I went back to replay it I realized I hadn't saved the game.

Ok now I can't even remember what I did to get the game going. All I have is him saying , "so dark, so dark" and I can't seem to find the hot spot now.
Help Please!

There is no save. It's short enough to play through in five minutes and there aren't any dead ends, so just play on through.

To get the ball rolling again:

Spoiler
Hit tab to bring up your inventory, then click your lighter anywhere in the darkness.

And here's a big spoiler, the puzzle after where you got lost before. Only look here if you can't beat the game.

Spoiler
use the handsaw on the chains, and pick up the resultant pile of rusty saw bits and iron. Rust plus iron shavings, in case you didn't know, is the recipe for thermite.

Spoiler
once you have knocked the book down, turn around and pick up the tennis ball that also fell of the shelf and rolled past you. Cut it open with the saw, then fill it with the shavings.

Spoiler
hurl the thermite bomb into the furnace.
