Anachronox Hints

How can I get off this ship?

  • 1 of 3: First, you need to make your way past the lone green security door into another section of the ship.
  • 2 of 3: Just go a few more rooms in the next section, and you'll be facing Rictus.
  • 3 of 3: After you've "defeated" Rictus, you'll be thrown into the brig.  Make your way into El Puno's cell, and you'll leave this ship in the cut-scene that follows.
