TimeLapse - a few early hints @~These hints were compiled as a result of calls received about it @~since last issue. The answers were taken from a solution @~obtained from the Internet. To light the lamp: Click on the lamp to get a close up and follow the instructions, and remember that the pump has to be activated by actually moving the hand icon up and down. The match has to be grabbed and moved over the box to light it, and then it has to be applied to the mantle. When you've done, the lamp will be lit and you can proceed. What to do with the stone faces on Easter Island: Look at the statues on the right. Turn left and advance. Click on the stone face and there will be an outflow of lava: a mask will appear on it. Examine the glyphs on the eyes of the stone face. Click on the stone bowl and water will cool the mask. Take it. Turn around and go to the statues. Put the mask on the hand directly below the symbol which corresponds to the glyph. If you make a mistake, the mask will disintegrate and you have to start again. Go back to the stone face. Change the glyph by clicking on the left or right eye. Again, click on the bowl to cool the mask and retrieve it. Back to the statues and place the new mask on the hand under the correct symbol. Do this till you have all six in position, turn to the left and you will see a face with glowing eyes on the rock in front. Click on it and you'll be through to the time machine. To beat the crocodile: When the croc moves his head to the left, point the spear at a spot on his neck, by the base of his lower jaw. While his head is turned to the left, click on the spear to stab him in that spot. There is no point in trying to stab him anywhere else, so persist; when you hit the right bunch of pixels, he will disappear. To find the key for the locked chest in the Temple: Go to the room to the left of the circular altar and examine everything. If you click on the statue of Annubis, he'll tell you to "find the tablet". In one of the baskets, you'll find a mirror. Step back and look at the wall with the mirror to read a message. Now go to the bottom of the room and slide the mirror over the vessels. On the right hand side you will see an elaborate key. With the mirror over it, grab it. - o -
