Grim Fandango Hints
How do I get Glottis back his heart?
1 of 11: It landed to your right as you're facing Glottis. Why not just go and get it?
2 of 11: Okay, so a spider put it in its web. I guess that makes this puzzle just a little more difficult.
3 of 11: Maybe you could just take it.
4 of 11: Hmm ... the web seems to be too springy.
5 of 11: Try to cut the heart free.
6 of 11: Use your scythe on the web and see if that will work.
7 of 11: Guess not. The spiders are too fast at repairing the web.
8 of 11: See if there's some way that you can use the web's strength to your advantage.
9 of 11: Do you think you could turn the web into a giant sling shot?
10 of 11: All you would need is something that would let you grip onto the web and stretch it.
11 of 11: Use your scythe on the bone, and the heart will go flying back toward Glottis. You can now just pick up the heart and use it on Glottis.
