Ceville Hints

How can I damage the logging machine for good?

  • 1 of 7: The first hint is given by the dwarf himself: There are special demonstrations, which they sell tickets for.
  • 2 of 7: Show a ticket to the dwarf at the logging machine.
  • 3 of 7: Now that he is distracted, use Otto on the patched cable to stop the machine.
  • 4 of 7: Take the rag.
  • 5 of 7: Once again you need a demonstration to let Otto cut the cable.
  • 6 of 7: Then ask for a third demonstration, to let the dwarf see that the motor won't work anymore.
  • 7 of 7: Comment by the author: Does anyone know why an electric motor (it stops as soon as Otto cuts the cable, so it's not just needed as starter) needs an exhaust pipe (like a gasoline- or diesel-driven motor)?
