Tex Murphy: Overseer Hints
Now the walls are electrified. Help!
1 of 5: Yep, you should know this from the alarm sheet you found in Gideon's bedroom. During the test sequence, the walls become charged.
2 of 5: But during this sixteen-step test sequence, some parts of the floor will be alternately safe. You have to jump from safe spot to safe spot according to the test sequence diagram.
3 of 5: The floor parts that are shadowed are safe -- the highlighted ones are a one-way path to sudden death.
4 of 5: Closely examine the instruction sheet and once you know your strategy, activate the test sequence, jump off the wall, and try to make your way to the exit, which is across the balcony.
5 of 5: In my experience, navigation through this maze is easiest by using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
