The Dig Hints
How do I get out of this place?
1 of 14: As Brink suggests, you may want to go down in order to get up.
2 of 14: All you need to do is find an appropriate place to dig.
3 of 14: If you explore the area, you may eventually find such a place.
4 of 14: There's something in the area that will point you in the right direction.
5 of 14: Have you been on the alien ship yet?
6 of 14: There's a loose wire in there.
7 of 14: Take it.
8 of 14: Some kind of strange lights appear on the ship when you do. Those lights will show you where to go.
9 of 14: Just keep walking until you see them again.
10 of 14: Go back to the platform, and the lights should reappear.
11 of 14: Why don't you see what's at the spot that the lights are pointing out?
12 of 14: Or, more accurately, what's underneath?
13 of 14: Use the shovel on the spot, and you'll be able to get inside a new building.
14 of 14: Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do to prevent Brink from dying.
