Dark Side of the Moon Hints
How do I get rid of this thing?
1 of 11: If you come back down from the upper level, the scorpicine will attack once again.
2 of 11: You'll need to approach this problem from above.
3 of 11: Look around and see what you have at your disposal.
4 of 11: In keeping with some other semicomical moments in the game, wouldn't it be nice to just drop a big rock on the scorpicine's head?
5 of 11: Unfortunately, there's no big rocks around... at least, none you can move.
6 of 11: You're smarter than the scorpicine, though. Plus you understand the principles of leverage.
7 of 11: If you could find something to use as a lever, you might be able to unloose one of the big rocks, and dump it on the scorpicine.
8 of 11: Search around the upper level for a long, thin piece that looks like it could be used as a lever; add it to your inventory.
9 of 11: Now find a rock that looks like it could be in the right position, and has a little "give" to it.
10 of 11: There's one rock that almost moves if you touch it, but apparently needs a little more help.
11 of 11: Use your lever, and the rock will drop over the edge, near the scorpicine.
