The posts in this thread answer your question.

Spoiler

The two guys don't want lithium, but a strong drink.
The lithium is for the warden that reads the book. Go to the previous page of posts in this thread

Ok...

Spoiler

I looked at (and used the brain) on the two brain charts in the room where you get drugged.

I talked to everybody until they repeated themselves.

I used the drug in Mitchell's office.

I used the brain on the panel behind the two guys that want cigarettes. Noah says the words are familiar to him but he forgot their meaning.

I looked at both pictures in Mitchell's and Knox's office, deducing that they knew each other.

I looked at the pcitures of the temporal lobe to get the computer's password.

And I'm still getting the bad ending. What am I missing?

[Zaphod1989]

Yeah I read that post right after I posted, finished the game now, thanks anyway

[Lufia]

Forgot that in my previous post:

I aslo have the message saying that some areas seem wrong for a sanitarium when I click on my eye gauge.

I have done pretty much the same as Lufia, but looking at all the stuff in the "madness" sequence in Mitchell's office, but still get the bad ending.

I'm stuck right near the beginning, after I knock out reynolds or w/e and put him in my cell, there's a bunch of communicator panels with other cells that give no responses and a reinforced glass office with security equipment inside... All I could figure out was to eat the food  :

[Monkeyman1138]

Simple, just move downwards from the screen with the security office.

I really, REALLY hate giving out hints to my games because I feel that ultimately it ruins the experience for the player (and the joy of you solving it for yourself).  Monkeyman, since you've been so persistent, read this ONLY if you have tried everything you can think of  (please don't look here if you want only small hints):

Spoiler

Noah will reclaim memories for the following:  Looking/thinking about both brain charts in the treatment lab, looking/thinking about the flickering overhead lights when they are on, looking/thinking about the sign on doctor fuchs door in the flickering room puzzle, looking/thinking about the plaque behind Burke and Hare, using the mind's eye drug in dr. west's office, looking at the picture that appears in dr. west's office when you use the drug and THEN looking at it in knox's office, studying all the diagrams in knox's office.  This will give you more than enough points.

I'm utterly stuck on the segment after Noah's cell, where you're bolted to a table. Aside from braining the charts, I have no idea what to do.

[Siforth]

This is a hard part
read only if your really stuck

I finished the game without help. The good ending. I did need a hint at the vending macine, guy with coffy ect. Good game.

DON'T PANIC

There is a bug in that even though I got the bad ending, I played it again From the begining and did the same exact things and got the good ending.

[Monkeyman1138]

Thanks, ProgZmax, I was missing the two in the flickering room.

[Monkeyman1138]

Turns out that when I do all those things to get the memories, my memory bar is almost full, but I cannot seem to fill it, and still get the "bad" ending, perhaps I have fallen afoul of a bug? In which case, does anyone have a savegame for in Knox's office, with a full memory bar?

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

My testers and I went through this game many, many times (and so have I) and we have never had a problem getting the best ending with the right amount of points.  Go back through, read the point locations carefully, and make SURE you have them all.  Just looking at something doesn't guarantee points, you have to think about it and sometimes corellate between more than one object. 

I just played through it again following the directions I gave you and got the best ending.  If you are patient and thorough you will get the best ending!

This presents me with a problem see.

Spoiler

I can't see any books. At all. I've sweeped through the room 4/5 times fine-toothedly and I can't see anything that is even remotely like a book.

[sthomannch]

Mike, explore a bit more

Spoiler

The book is on the sink. It is barely visible. Use full screen mode and then you should be able to spot it

[Lufia]

Thank you for your answer Prog, but...

Spoiler

I did this all (including the two in the corridor with the flickering lights) and still get the bad ending. Though I think I know where the problem is: I don't get the points for thinking about the two charts. I there a time  when I should do it? Because when I do it while I'm attached to the bed, the eye in the bar remains closed and I don't get anything. Should I try to progress in the game and only remember the charts when I go back for the Lithium, for example?

[close]

I'll try again and tell you.

[Monkeyman1138]

Same here, I just replayed through the entire game again,  making sure to look and think all of those points until you remember something, but I noticed  that sometimes the Memory bar does not progress once you get the memory. I think there might be a bug that depends on which order you get the memories, because I only ended up with an almost full bar again.

[Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens]

It's no bug, trust me on this .  The bar only shows progress after a certain amount of points have been accrued.  The chart doesn't give enough on it's own to increment it.

Spoiler

1.  Make sure you have downloaded the latest version of the game, version 1.2b.  If you are unsure, redownload it from the first link.

2.  Use Noah's look skill in conjunction with his thinking skill for everything; sometimes you may only figure out part of something so you'll need to look at it again.  Unless Noah EXPLICITLY says he's figured something out (the two charts in the treatment lab are an example where he will explicitly say he knows what they are), you've still got some digging to do.

Keep at it, and stop seeing phantom bugs!   You're making me nervous.
