As the glass is sucked away you discover what gave the mirror its reflectivity: A piece of reflective foil is hanging on the wall where the mirror once was. The detector is quietly beeping.

File Room This is the room where octuplet copies of forms are stored.

Looks like we should take that twenty-prong fromitz board and hook it up to the twenty-ohm bedistor, or maybe the opposite if that's how it works.

Also, sorry about not hooking up the bedistor and fromitz board, but if the electrical components in Planetfall are any indication, you would have to insert them into other devices, rather than hooking them up to each other.

Just a warning, this is about where a REAL dick move is coming up. There's a timed sequence in the near future, but a certain random event WILL occur shortly. If the two coincide, the game becomes unwinnable. Again, just a heads up, sorry if this is a bad post.

I think I know what you're talking about, and don't worry - it's not a bad post, seeing as this is only a semi-blind LP for me. If the events in question are what I think they are, I'll point them out when they come up. Anyway, the item for the slot isn't the validation stamp, but something that we're carrying and that has been associated with Shady Dan in the log tape. As another hint, think about why the village was sealed off. Until next time!

AH. Wasn't it about Dan forging higher ranked ID cards? Maybe we need to "Promote" ourselves to Admiral for a few moments, hur hur hur!

They have a remiss security system if we can forge our ID card so easily. Also, "HyperAdmiral"? They must have run out of ranks in the patrol.

Floyd and Plato discuss their favorite battery recharging techniques. About what I expected. Anyway, where might the information from the paper be useful? Hmmm...

Despite the current solitude, you can almost hear the tinny music, the loud voices, the fistfights. Openings lead west and northwest, and to the east is a partially disguised exit.

Well well, now we've come to a really interesting part of the game. From the clues we've gotten so far, the dots in the alien ship has no visual feature at all, and the scientists are checking for "nonvisual quality" of the dots to decipher it. And now, they've come up with the list of "taste-word" pairs. What should we do? Let's think Sci-Fi-ish way.
By the way, I wonder how they throw the dice in zero-gravity. |

South Junction You jump half a meter off the floor when a voice begins speaking behind you. You relax when you see that it is merely Plato. But you get somewhat nervous again when you realize that he is aiming a stun ray right at your chest! "In case it isn't apparent," Plato is saying, "your rather pathetic, useless life is about to come to an unheralded close." He presses the trigger, and an instant numbness envelops you. As you crumple into a heap, Floyd dashes to your side, his face a mask of concern. Uh-oh...looks like cred is about to get real. Since we're stunned, might as well just... >wait Time passes...

The war had raged for countless millenia before the Zeenaks devised an ultimate weapon, a device that would be launched into Hunji space. There, via methods beyond your comprehension, it would influence all the machines within a certain range to turn against their Hunji creators." Floyd's head is swivelling back and forth between you and Plato with a look of miserable confusion. Since there's nothing else we can do, let's keep waiting to find out what's going on, although we've already got a pretty good idea from the notes. >wait Time passes...

Once all the Hunji in the area were eliminated, the pyramid would influence the Hunji machinery to build a factory for constructing and sending forth replicas of the pyramid; these replicas would enter new Hunji regions, kill everyone, and create more replicas. Thus, the Hunji would be destroyed by their own machines in a matter of weeks! "Somehow, the Zeenak pyramid never made it into Hunji space. Instead, this ultimate weapon drifted across the intergalactic gulf and was picked up by an outpost of humanity -- this very station!" Floyd is dashing back and forth between you and Plato, whimpering with fear. >z Time passes... "As you've certainly surmised, the pyramid has engineered the deaths of everyone on this station. You're still alive, of course, but that condition is very temporary. The building of replicas is now underway, and soon a hundred copies of this death-pyramid will be shooting silently toward every corner of human-occupied space! Well, I hope I made the last moments of your life a bit more interesting." He raises the stun ray. Floyd, nearly in tears, his jaw quivering, wails, "Please oh please don't hurt Floyd's friend!"

If this were Resident Evil, I'd totally say there's some obscure puzzle dealing with the roulette wheel. But it's not. But it's all I can think of.

And Plato's line has confirmed what we have suspected from the various clues. What we should do is clear now... destroy the alien pyramid! As for how to save yourself, well, aren't robots made to help human? Plato is completely crazed by the pyramid, but Floyd isn't. Try asking Floyd for help. Anyway, this is where the game starts to get really intense. We realize we are in the brink of collapse of civilization as well as personal death, and we must stop it from happening, urgently. We must solve many problems with Sci-Fi and scientific way of thinking, until the story ends in a moving conclusion. That's the reason Stationfall is one of my favorite Infocom game.

>w.nw.n.w.w.w.sw.nw.d.nw.in. Saloon Grocery A small, translucent plastic bag is sitting on one of the shelves. Floyd bounds into the room. "Floyd here now!" he cries. You notice that Plato has also roamed into view behind Floyd, once again absorbed in his reading. Broadway Floyd and Plato follow you. Makeshift Connector Floyd and Plato follow you. As you cross the boundary of the Command Module, the station's artificial gravity once again tugs you against the deck. East Connection Floyd and Plato follow you. East Junction Floyd and Plato follow you. South Junction You jump half a meter off the floor when a voice begins speaking behind you. You relax when you see that it is merely Plato. But you get somewhat nervous again when you realize that he is aiming a stun ray right at your chest! "In case it isn't apparent," Plato is saying, "your rather pathetic, useless life is about to come to an unheralded close." He presses the trigger, and an instant numbness envelops you. As you crumple into a heap, Floyd dashes to your side, his face a mask of concern. >floyd, help me Floyd waves his hands helplessly. "Yes... I mean no... I mean oh no oh help me please. Floyd in quandry..." "Shortly, I shall shoot again, and paralyze your cardiac muscle. Naturally, this is fatal. But before I do, human, perhaps it will interest you to discover the reason for your demise, and why the rest of your worthless race will soon follow. "You see, eons ago, two races in another galaxy, the Zeenaks and the Hunji, were involved in an interstellar war. The war had raged for countless millenia before the Zeenaks devised an ultimate weapon, a device that would be launched into Hunji space. There, via methods beyond your comprehension, it would influence all the machines within a certain range to turn against their Hunji creators." Floyd's head is swivelling back and forth between you and Plato with a look of miserable confusion. And now, we wait. It's the same story from last time, but at the end... >z Time passes... Plato takes aim with the stun gun. His hand begins to depress the trigger. Floyd suddenly leaps at the gun, knocking it out of Plato's hands! The gun skitters across the floor. Plato and Floyd both chase it, but Plato is a step faster. He leaps on top of it, rupturing the gun's power pack. The gun explodes, and Plato is blown apart! Floyd crumples to the deck, shaking all over. Tears of oil stream down his face. Pins and needles begin prickling in your extremities, and soon spread all over your body. Within a few seconds, all your muscular control has returned. Quote:

"Floyd here now!" he cries.

Let's see...that would translate as: Brethren Hunji Sabotage failed however I have shined light upon the Zeenak weapon's weakness element 78! Turn back the evil radiations! Air is souring however So, the pyramid is weak to "element 78." A quick look at the periodic table reveals that the element with atomic number 78 is platinum, which we just happen to have! Now we just need to get to the thing somehow. First, though, there was sort of a suggestion for something to do back in the casino, so let's do it. Quote:

Wow, right when I posted I missed the big revelations in the plot. I guess we should check out those new exits, then get the platinum and try to destroy the pyramid with it.
Also, what happens if you shoot Plato with the zapgun before that showdown? |

>shoot plato (with the fusor-beam zapgun) Plato jerks out of the way and moves cautiously to the far corner of the room. "I assure you that such antagonistic behavior is uncalled for and unappreciated." Plato helps polish a hard-to-reach spot on Floyd's back. And now we have an answer. Real update coming later! |

And here's the real update. First, the northern exit.
>n Opium Den This is a tiny room, smelling strongly of various synthesized opium variants. There's a sign on the wall and a door to the south. Floyd follows you. Might as well see what the sign says. >read sign The sign is from the government's latest anti-drug crusade. It depicts the president of the Third Galactic Union, her hands crossed across her chest in a defiant pose, with the caption, "Drugs are a no-no!" You notice that someone has drawn a mustache on her. Floyd boasts about the time he helped someone find a lost paper clip. Nothing in here but flavor, unfortunately. Maybe there's something in the other room, though? >s.u. Casino You can see a pair of dice floating here. Floyd follows you. Flophouse You've always wondered what a back-room zero-gee space village bordello was like. Well, now you know. Next to the nearest bed is a locker. The exit leads down. Floyd follows you. And where there's a locker... >open locker Opening the locker reveals a space suit. Floyd mumbles about a mysterious future in which humans will have to take orders from robots. I think that the pyramid might be getting to Floyd...but that space suit might be useful. Let's take it! >take space suit You're juggling just about as much stuff as you can manage. After getting rid of some useless junk, that is. Specifically, the note, diary, stamp, nanofilm spool, and drill, if you're wondering. I'm also dropping off the jammer and spray can here, although I will be using them in the future. And now we've got a space suit. I have a feeling that you know what to do with this, but I'll leave that for the next update. Inventory:
