Discworld II Hints
How do I get the genie's bottle?
1 of 16: Try taking it, and then ask Mrs. Cake about it. (If she's not making any sense, go through all of the dialogue options once, and then try talking to her again.)
2 of 16: She wants some ectoplasm.
3 of 16: Ectoplasm comes from spirits.
4 of 16: Seen any spirits around here?
5 of 16: Like the fool and Chucky at the Fools' Guild?
6 of 16: If you talk to them you'll realize that that they can't leave the Guild.
7 of 16: Or at least the bricks that made up the Guild.
8 of 16: The good thing is that you can take the bricks with you.
9 of 16: Pick up one of the loose bricks off the ground, and use it on the fool and Chucky to take them with you.
10 of 16: But ectoplasm only comes from ringing out spirits.
11 of 16: Like in the laundry.
12 of 16: Or something else that spins.
13 of 16: Like a giant drink mixer.
14 of 16: Or the magic accelerator at Unseen University (in the High Energy Facility).
15 of 16: Use the haunted brick on the accelerator for your ectoplasm.
16 of 16: Give the ectoplasm to Mrs. Cake, and you can take the bottle.
