Flight of the Amazon Queen Hints
General Tips
In general, it's much quicker to use the keyboard shortcuts than the action icons. Use O for open, C for close, M for move, G for give, L for look at, P for pick up, T for talk to, and U for use.
To look at an object in your inventory, left click on it. To perform the default action on any object (which is listed when you move the mouse over the object), right click.
To save, load, or quit a game, either press F5 or click on the journal in your inventory.
There are several times when you'll need to cover a lot of ground, and Joe's slow walking will become annoying. Press Ctrl+F to put the game into fast mode. Be sure to press Ctrl+F again to reset to normal before entering any new locations or performing any actions.
(Note: these tips work on the ScummVM port. They may or may not work on the original game.)
There are a couple exits which may not be immediately obvious.
