Bioshock Hints
Supply Tips
1 of 8: Near the door you came in through are two slot machines. You can insert $10 into either one and hope that you win more.
2 of 8: Of course, the way to do this is to quicksave before you try, then quicksave after every win and quickrestore after every loss until you've got $500.
3 of 8: The nearby "Epstein the Swami" fortune-telling machine is completely useless, so don't waste any time or money on it. (The stupid thing will even charge twice what it says it will!)
4 of 8: Just around the corner from the slot machines, look on the floor for a first aid kit.
5 of 8: You can get two more first aid kits by smashing the left window of the apothecary shop, but doing so will start up a security alarm and get some bots after you.
6 of 8: If you have the Natural Camouflage tonic (see the Research Tips), you can smash one of the apothecary windows, immediately stop moving in order to go invisible, and then wait out the security alarm. You can then smash the other window and claim the items from both.
7 of 8: If you need an EVE hypo but don't want to break a window to get one, look for one on the floor next to a corpse a ways south of the apothecary.
8 of 8: Examine the wall directly above that corpse to find an automatic hack tool way up high that you can pull in with Telekinesis.
