Anachronox Hints
How do I get into the Tower of Grand Mysterium?
1 of 14: They won't let anyone inside the Tower.
2 of 14: However, they do let items in.
3 of 14: Go all the way to the "far end" of the Entertainment District and look around there. (Most of the district is just a single path, so just keep walking from the Platform Area, and you should reach the end shortly after you pass the Tower.)
4 of 14: A robot is getting ready to deliver some cargo into the Tower.
5 of 14: Maybe you could sneak your way into the Tower that way.
6 of 14: Hmm ... "he" won't let you anywhere near the cargo container, though.
7 of 14: That's because he doesn't have anything better to do than watch you.
8 of 14: Talk to him to see why he's waiting around like that.
9 of 14: He needs a delivery slip before he can move any cargo.
10 of 14: Give the delivery slip to the robot, and he'll be standing on the elevator, moving cargo.
11 of 14: You can get him out of the way now.
12 of 14: Use the elevator controls at ground level to move the elevator down, away from the cargo container.
13 of 14: You can now go up the ramp and get in the container yourself. A short cut-scene later, and you'll be just outside the back door to the Tower.
14 of 14: All you have to do is walk right through that back door.
