Complete Waste of Time Hints

Little Nudges

  • The maze spells:
    MEAT
    HEAD
    GRINDER

    The first thing to happen once you get in the maze is you will go off the track and fall into the sea.  A Space Bar sign will appear.  When it stops swinging, push the space bar on your key board.  You will now be on a lift going up which will take you to the bottom left leg of the "M" in MEAT.  You are trying to get to the lower right leg of the last "R" in GRINDER.

    Use your compass as your guide.
    Blue: up
    Yellow: down
    Red: from right to left
    Green: from left to right

    Here are the lifts, all of which you take down:

    1) Bottom left of the E in MEAT.  Take this lift down to the middle left of the H in HEAD.  To find this lift, you have to go up the E and back down.

    2) Top left arm of the T.  Take this lift down to the top arm of the E in HEAD.

    3) Bottom right of the D.  Take this lift down to the middle of the G.  To find this lift, you must go up the right side of the D, turn around, and go back to the right corner.

    When you are stuck in deja vu in the loops of the R's, turn around as you are travelling right to left, which is the bottom of the loop.
