Sacred Mirror of Kofun - Hints and Tips

The Antares
-----------
Sometimes, no one is there when I go to the Intercom. Where is
everyone?

     At times it will be up to you to take all that you know and
     find the next clue. Yet, where are the others? Can you really
     trust them?

What is the Album good for?

     Take some notes on what you see and hear. They will prove to
     be worth their weight in gold.

Some of the items in data storage don't give any keywords when
analyzed. Why is that?


     In some cases it's hard to make sense of incoming information
     immediately. However, anything that is not used shortly after
     it is received will be needed later.

What is Disconnect?

     Disconnect shuts off E.D.W.A.R.D.. This is information that
     only Professor Sinus knows and can use. If you can guess the
     code in the right place, there is a happy little surprise
     waiting for you.

Why can't I leave the Truk close-up map in the Autopilot?

     Once you've decided to search for John Braddy instead of
     going to Palau at the beginning of the game, E.D.W.A.R.D.
     keeps the Antares there for that mission. And besides, you
     never know if one of the sites will be good enough for the
     Poseidon station.


Some of the puzzles are extremely tough, and I can't seem to find
the information I need to solve them. What can I do?

     Don't panic! Pay close attention to what you've seen and
     heard.  All the information you need is just a few clicks
     away. Be diligent; hard work and luck will make you a winner
     here. Also, remember John Braddy has subtly hidden clues as
     to his whereabouts. He loves complicated brain teasers and
     mind games, but then again, everyone on board the Antares
     enjoys playing them.

How do I know how to fix E.D.W.A.R.D. when he shuts down?

     There is a clue, and if you listen closely, you'll figure it
     out when you're in Sinus's cabin.

Does the overhead display on the bridge do anything?

     No.

Where can I find information on the Antares?

     In your (Chris Young's) cabin, you will find a book that has
     all the information you will need.

What does the bioanalysis do?

     It sorts out photographed species into common, remarkable,
     and rare categories for Dr. Capucci to rate in order to
     determine if the site is appropriate for the Poseidon
     station.

How do I know when to go to the intercom?

     It is a good idea to periodically check in with your
     shipmates to get and process information. They are there for
     the mission's benefit.

How do I know when to go talk to E.D.W.A.R.D.?

     He has some great ideas, and sometimes he's in the mood to
     share them. You never know when you will get a gem of advice.

Where can I find more information on the crew?

     In data storage, there is a short biography on each crew
     member.
