Anachronox Hints
How do I get to the ticket machine?
1 of 4: Grumpos will tell you what to do here.
2 of 4: He suggests that he could "yammer" the customer away from the machine.
3 of 4: Yammer is Grumpos's WorldSkill.
4 of 4: Switch your primary character to Grumpos, and assuming you're using the default settings, CONTROL-click on the man in your way. This will bring up a mini-game that you must win to yammer the man off the machine successfully. The game will tell you how to play the mini-game -- just follow the instructions and keep trying until you get it right.
