Thank you Honza,

This is strange...
Spoiler
I guess the scissors like symbol of the buttons on the left side represents the north direction
and the other symbol of the buttons on the left side represents the south direction. is that right?
So guessing the east and west direction is a 50/50 chance
Do the buttons on the left side of the panel have a function or are they just there to show the N and S direction
and otherwise are just a red herring?
I am totally confused...

Thanks VampireWombat, Thanks Honza !
I still don't get it.....
Spoiler
There are two buttons on the left, I assume they show the N and S direction
Then there is the direction pad with N,S.E.W directions
Then there is the note showing 5 symbols, from my understanding it's S,N,E,W and N
Or S,N,W,E and N
Sliding the button in these directions does nothing....
Pressing the buttons on the left does nothing....
(It's not working)....

Help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance and a merry Xmas and happy holidays to all of you!

Wow Honza !
Great game , I never played the first version,
the voice acting is brilliant.
I am totally stuck with
Spoiler
the control panel. I guess it controls the position of the satellite dish
and it has something to do with the not, but nothing happens when I press
in N,S,E or W direction

This is another gem in the AGS collection, simply great  !

@Sakkeus,
savegames worked, but now I am totally stuck...
Spoiler
... near the end.i guess I have to fiddle with the fuse box,
but there is now way to open it, cannot find a suitable tool for the lock
Also, when using the mirror on the corner,there is no way to access
the items in my inventory

@Sakkeus,
I thought from here on it would be a cakewalk , but...
Spoiler
...figuring out the combination for the lock is a mystery to me.
I cleaned the lock with the spray and I thought I could find out the combination
by an acoustic sound, but to no avail.
Just a slight nudge would be highly appreciated.

The puzzles in the game are really well designed !!!

Thanks Sakkeus,
I hope I will make it, sometimes I am a bit too "trigger friendly"
and I accidentally fire without aiming ....
Spoiler 8 must be the solution , not easy though ...
EDIT : Is the order mandatory?

In fact, I just found that out.

Still running out of ammo.
Are the three shots on the microwave the correct approach?7
EDIT: Seems like the crane controls need two shots, correct?
So I always end up with one mole remaining....

Thanks for the help, this is a great game, I love its humour !

@Sakkeus :
What a great game !
I managed to get pretty far without needing a hint, but now I am totally stuck with....
Spoiler
... getting rid of the moles
I always run out of ammo, I think I need another strategy.
The one behind the blue barrels on the left side can only be killed by shooting
the microwave like object on top of the barrels by using 3 bullets, correct?
The one on the right always disappears when the cursor gets close to it (same with the
one behind the blue barrels)
Aiming at the objects nearby doesn't work...

@Shadow1000: I was stuck there, too

You're on the right track, but you can't get rid of the librarian
Take a very close look at the Hawi book
especially at the bottom of the right page !
(I'm quite sure it's the Hawi book)

Hi Shadow,
i don't have a savegame for this part of the game anymore,
so I try to do my best to help with from what I remember
Spoiler
I have to find the Hawi book recommended by the mystic but it's not in the library. The only book I haven't seen the title of is the one that the librarian is blocking but I don't know how to move him.

I have to find the Hawi book recommended by the mystic but it's not in the library. The only book I haven't seen the title of is the one that the librarian is blocking but I don't know how to move him.

I don't know how to open the mouth of the head
I believe you could just open the mouth, then push the tongue

I don't know how to get precious metals for the pimp
You will find it in the mouth, you need an item from the board in the kitchen to remove it

I think I need a recipe to use in the kitchen but that make be in the book I mentioned at first.
The Hawi book should be on the left side of the shelf's top row
I think I had to replace a book from the magician's room with one from the shelf, but not 100% sure anymore,
it had to be of a particular color
You don't have to get rid of the librarian !

I don't know how to look at the inscription next to the door
It will be accessible at a later point in the game

This is a really nice game well worth playing !

Thanks Lapsking,
I am afraid that this might be another bug :
Spoiler
I was always sure that I have to use the shears to cut off a page from
one of the books. Guess this would be the tinder I need.
The problem is: I have no book in my inventory and
cannot take another from the shelf in the magician's room nor can I
remove the book I placed in the library...
