I remember this puzzle giving me some trouble.
The game is being deliberately obtuse about the item you need and there is so much filler scenery, its hard to know what to examine closer. I seem to remember that the game gives you a hint about the existence of the key. Maybe if you have the right item with you when you walk into the room... I don't remember, but I did solve this one back in the day. Granted, I also made the game unwinnable with the same item we need... |

Time to try to get that key. First, though, let's get a better look at some of the other tools in the tool room.
>u Reactor Control Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. You notice that you feel a bit weak and slightly flushed, but you're not sure why. This is a plot point later. I'll explain more when it comes up further. >w Mech Corridor >s Mech Corridor South >sw Tool Room Sitting on the floor below the lowest shelf is a large glass flask. On an upper shelf is a metal bar, curved into a U-shape. There is a pair of wide-nosed pliers here. >examine bar I see nothing special about the curved metal bar. >examine pliers I see nothing special about the pair of wide-nosed pliers. About what I expected. Now to actually try and get the key. >ne Mech Corridor South Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >n Mech Corridor Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >n Mech Corridor North Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >n Corridor Junction There is a cardboard box here. The cardboard box contains: A cracked seventeen-centimeter fromitz board A good ninety-ohm bedistor A K-series megafuse A B-series megafuse Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >n Admin Corridor South Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >examine crack Lying at the bottom of the narrow crack, partly covered by layers of dust, is a shiny steel key! Floyd absent-mindedly oils one of his joints. >floyd, get key Floyd whines, "Enough talking! Let's play Hider-and-Seeker." Well, darn. I typed "examine crack" again because I wasn't sure if you could interact with the key before knowing it was there. Now to try using the pliers to get it out, although I'm not sure about how I would parse that. After going to the Tool Room, dropping off the laser, getting the pliers, and returning... >get key with pliers These are heavy-duty pliers, too large to reach into this narrow crack. Floyd rubs his head affectionately against your shoulder. Looks like we'll need something else. But what? I'll leave that for you to find out. Unexplored paths: None. Puzzles: Getting the key out of the crack. Maps Code:

Ok so the crack that the key is in must be fairly small, or at least smaller than wide nosed pliers. Of all the inventory items we have, which we've been told we have seen the item that will solve the puzzle, almost all of them can be easily ignored. Flasks, canteens, megafuses, etc. We already tried floyd and the pliers.
That leaves... |

Floyd follows you. Now to give it a try. I have a feeling that this'll be a guess-the-verb situation, though. :P >get key with bar With a spray of dust and a loud clank, a piece of metal leaps from the crevice and affixes itself to the magnet. It is a steel key! With a tug, you remove the key from the magnet. Or not. I guess I just have a habit of underestimating Infocom's parser, though. And yes, the bar is a magnet. I don't see why the game felt the need to obfuscate it, though. I mean, don't the other elements give enough of a sense that it's set in the 114th century without the protagonist apparently being too advanced to know what a horseshoe magnet is? Anyway, where could this key go? Hint: Look at past posts for where a normal key might be useful. Maps Code:

Taeryn has got it yet again! So, now to unlock that lock.
>s Corridor Junction There is a cardboard box here. The cardboard box contains: A cracked seventeen-centimeter fromitz board A good ninety-ohm bedistor A K-series megafuse A B-series megafuse Floyd follows you. >w You walk down the long, featureless hallway for a long time. Finally, you see some doorways ahead... Dorm Corridor Floyd follows you. A growl from your stomach warns that you're getting pretty hungry and thirsty. >w Mess Corridor Floyd follows you. >unlock padlock with key The padlock springs open. Floyd asks if you want to play Hucka-Bucka-Beanstalk. >remove padlock Oh, no. The key slips from your arms while taking the padlock and both tumble to the ground. I love the lack of enthusiasm here, especially because that's exactly how I feel - I certainly don't need the padlock, and I won't be needing the key now that I've got the door open. Anyway, let's see what lies within. >open door Opened. Floyd cranes his neck to see what you are doing. >n Storage West This is a small room obviously intended as a storage area. On a small shelf is a large, unopened tin can. It has a plain white label which reads "Spam and Egz." A heavy-duty extendable ladder is leaning against the rear wall. Well, I'm sure that at least one of these items will be useful, but I'll leave it to you to figure out what to do next. Maps Code:

Since it is an extendable ladder...
>extend ladder You can't extend the ladder in this tiny space! Guess we'll have to find somewhere else to do that. But where? And where might a ladder be useful, anyway? |

It's not cheating to say "all," but it's good to have a starting point.

Let's check out the other exits from this room before doing anything here. >e Admin Corridor North Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >n It is pitch black. You might be eaten by a grue. There is light to the south. Better get out of here, then! >s Admin Corridor North There is a multiple purpose robot here.

The left wall is covered with an enormous map, labelled "Kalamontee Kompleks", showing two installations connected by a long hallway. Near the upper part of this map is a red arrow saying "Yuu ar heer." The right wall is covered with a similar map, labelled "Lawanda Kompleks", showing two installations, one apparently buried deep underground. Floyd follows you.

Today's suggestions were to try out the new access cards. Now, while the mess hall one would seem to be higher priority, the elevator one isn't too far out of the way, so let's try that one first.

Of particular interest is a machine near the door. You should probably examine it more closely. Floyd follows you. Well, if you say so, Mr. Narrator. >examine machine This wall-mounted unit contains an octagonal niche beneath a spout. Above the spout is a button. The machine is labelled "Hii Prooteen Likwid Dispensur." "Octagonal"...hmmm, wasn't there something octagonal that might just be useful here? And should we go up or down from the elevator?

Our first priority should be restocking on food or food-like substance, so let's do that. Fortunately, the canteen is just across the hall, so...
>n Mess Hall The kitchen door slides quietly closed. Floyd follows you. >n Mess Corridor There is a padlock here. There is a key here. Floyd follows you. >n Storage West On a small shelf is a large, unopened tin can. It has a plain white label which reads "Spam and Egz." There is a canteen here. There is a survival kit here. Floyd follows you. >get canteen Taken. >s Mess Corridor There is a padlock here. There is a key here. Floyd follows you. >s Mess Hall Floyd follows you. >slide kitchen card through slot The kitchen door quietly slides open. >s Kitchen Floyd follows you. >put canteen in niche The canteen fits snugly into the octagonal niche, its mouth resting just below the spout of the machine. >push button A thick, brown liquid spills over the closed canteen, dribbles down the side of the machine, and forms a puddle on the floor which quickly dries up. Whoops. >open canteen Opened. >push button The canteen fills almost to the brim with a brown liquid. >get canteen Taken. Floyd chants the death scene from "Carmen". This machine will be our food source for the remainder of the game, so we'll be coming back here pretty frequently. Now to check out the desk in the large office. >n Mess Hall The kitchen door slides quietly closed. Floyd bounces into the room. "Hey, wait for Floyd!" he yells, smiling broadly. >n Mess Corridor There is a padlock here. There is a key here. >e Dorm Corridor Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >e You walk down the long, featureless hallway for a long time. Finally, you see an intersection ahead... Corridor Junction There is a towel here. There is an oil can here. There is a curved metal bar here. There is a pair of wide-nosed pliers here. There is a cardboard box here. The cardboard box contains: A cracked seventeen-centimeter fromitz board A good ninety-ohm bedistor A K-series megafuse A B-series megafuse A growl from your stomach warns that you're getting pretty hungry and thirsty. Although we have a renewable food source now, I'm not sure if each trip to the machine grants multiple "meals," so I'll hold off on drinking for now. Anyway, on to the large office. >n Admin Corridor South >n Admin Corridor Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >n You slowly make your way across the swaying ladder. You can see sharp, pointy rocks at the bottom of the rift, far below... Admin Corridor North >w Small Office Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. >w Large Office >search desk The desk has a drawer which is currently closed. Which, of course, means... >open drawer Opening the large desk reveals a shuttle access card. Yoink! >get shuttle card Taken. Floyd rushes into the room and barrels into you. "Oops, sorry," he says. "Floyd not looking at where he was going to." And now to try out the upper elevator! >e Elevator Lobby Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. (snip wrestling with parser because I forgot that the blue door was already open and that it was at the north end of the lobby) >n Upper Elevator Floyd follows you. Since down was the first direction suggested, let's go that way first. >press down button Nothing happens. Floyd whistles tunelessly. Guess this elevator is already at the bottom of the shaft, so maybe we can go... >press up button The elevator door slides shut. After a moment, you feel a sensation of vertical movement. And now, to wait. >z Time passes... Floyd chants the death scene from "Carmen". >z Time passes... The elevator door slides open. Floyd produces a crayon from one of his compartments and scrawls his name on the wall. What could lie on this floor? >s Tower Core This is a small, circular room. A sliding door leads north, and a spiral staircase heads upwards. Other exits lie to the northeast and southwest. Floyd follows you. Looks like another decision point. Where to from here? Unexplored paths: Northeast from Tower Core. Southwest from Tower Core. Up from Tower Core. Maps Kalamontee Complex 1F Code:
