South again and get the Decoder and nylon Rope. Go West and pick up the Salami and the Wine. Go North and get the Book. If you remember what is in the Book you can leave it here as it is of no further use to you. Go North and get the Suit. Open the Locker and get the Key. Now go East, Down and Down again and drop the Key in the Hall. Go Up and enter the Transporter. ie, Go Transporter. Beam me down Scotty. or should I just say, Beam Down. Please note, this is a good time to save the Game. Typing Save does not work unfortunately. You must type Quit and then follow the instructions given on the screen. Head North and North again to the Baggage area. Get the Blaster, Scalpel, Decoder, Rope, Wine and the Salami. Now go South and shoot Hare Krishna. Go West and read the Graffitti on the wall. If you cannot read the Martian writing try using the Decoder. Remember the word "FPONK" as it will save you some time later. Now head East until you reach the holy Temple. As the Priest won't let you take anything, just head North. At the South Bank of the Canal, you can drink the Wine. Go East, it does not get you anywhere but you soon get the feeling that you will have to go somewhere soon. Head South and West back to the Rest Room and go Toilet. This is the time to say FPONK. It will save you the walk back. Sorry, there is no Bridge. You will have to Swim Canal. Head North to the petrified Forest and Save the Game. During the Game, you will pass this Room many times, so I suggest that you make this Room the collecting point for all the Objects that you will find throughout the Planet. Drop the Salami, Scalpel, nylon Rope and the Decoder here. Now it is time to go exploring the Planet for the Treasures. Go North and shoot the Sandworm then head North and West.

Tie the Rope to the Hook and then throw the Hook. Climb up the Rope and have a Look. Take the Sunship and climb down the Rope then drop the Sunship. Take the Hammer, go East and climb the Ridge. Travel South until you find the Matches and the First Aid Kit. Go East to the dirt path and go Down into the Box Canyon. Now you can go East and enter the Hut. Break the Orb and pick up the Silver Trumpet. Examine the Trumpet and then read the Formula. Either jot down the Formula now, or read it later. Go West but don't bother going Up from here as it's a dead end. Return to the Forest which is West, Up, West, Down and West. Open the First Aid Kit by cutting the Tape with the Scalpel.

You can now go East and examine the Cliff. Oh dear, more Figures, better get the Pencil out again. There is a Net here but you will have to pick it up later. OK Top-Gun, it's time to Fly the Sunship.
