These chips go in the inner circuit, the four that are close together forming a square: XD773956PELT9RJ X9773959PEET9RJ XDD73912PEET9RJ XDD37916PEET99J Here is the answer, assuming your chips are lettered from the top down: Row 1: K D Row 2: E H M P F Row 3: A J G O N Row 4: I L Row 5: B C HOW DO I OPEN THE DOOR WITH THE VOICE LOCK?

Listen to the tape and find the words that will make the correct sentence. Quantitize the tape to break the words apart. Select and copy the correct words in the correct order.

Well maybe at this point you do, but that won't help to solve the puzzle. If the monkey does anything other than scream, you are on the right track. "Hunger, pain, etc" is NOT the correct answer. Move the first slider down about 1/4. Move the second slider down about 3/4 Move the third slider down about 1/2 The correct sentence is: "She can kill others like me without touching them in cyberspace."

However, here are all of the things you should look at or take, and hints for all Act 3 puzzles. But remember that there is more to do in Act 3 (places to go and people to talk to) than what is listed here. Magnotta's Apartment Disarm the door lock scan the WAC into your database. HOW DO I DISARM THE DOOR LOCK? The lock has 8 buttons. The code will contain 6 digits. Look at the circuit box to the left of the door. There are 6 circuits. What do they all have in common? Divide the number on each circuit by 4. The answer will be the code to enter into the door lock. (NOTE: The code is different each time you play the game, so the actual answer cannot be given here. It is also possible that in your game the numbers may all be divisible by a number other than 4). You now have more of Catherine's journal to read. You can also now read the remainder of the first part of her journal. It has completely decrypted. Cyberspace Look at the new book in Falconetti's Well (there are several pages). Solve the Book Puzzle and get the audio disc. Go to the Wofford Well and talk to Hamilton Wofford. HOW DO I SOLVE THE BOOK PUZZLE IN FALCONETTI'S WELL?

HOW DO I WIN THE CHESS GAME? This game has special rules. You'll need to figure them out. It may take a while. It may take quite a while... Here are some hints: The object of the game is for you to get the computer's king before it gets yours. This is NOT a chess game. Your two knights (2 in gold) are unusable until all of your pawns (cute little guys) are gone. It is virtually impossible to win without using your knights. Do the best you can with your pawns, but basically - get rid of them. When pawns attack or reach the opposite side of the board they become fat men. They still behave as pawns, except they now can attack computer's knights. Having them on the board, however, still makes your knights useless. Pawns move: 1 square, any direction. Pawns can not attack computer's knights. But they can attack computer's pawns and dragons. Knights move: 1 or 2 squares, any direction, including diagonally. Kings move: 1 square, not diagonally. Can not go past grated row. The computer's pieces do not follow the same rules that yours do. The computer's knights are active from the beginning of the game. The computer's strategy seems to be to go directly for your knights and king so watch out! When the computer's knights transform to big mean-looking guys, they can bump each other off of a square in order to occupy it. In short(ha): Try to keep both of your knights and get rid of all your pawns so that your knights are useable. Use your knights to get the computer's king. Watch out for your king. For your first move, move your king one square left. This essentially forces the computer to move first. (NOTE: This is only a summary of the chess game that will enable you to win it. If you are interested in a complete set of rules, contact Take 2 Software). I DID ALL THIS I STILL CAN'T WIN I HATE THIS PUZZLE AND I HATE CHESS AND I CAN'T STAND IT ANY MORE THIS IS GIVING ME SUCH A HEADACHE. type the word "aspirin" on your keyboard at the beginning of the chess game.

Divide the board into four quarters: top right, bottom right, top left, bottom left. Each quarter will have a different movement pattern.
