Half-Life: Blue Shift Hints
What do I do in the room with two floating green barrels?
1 of 6: Watch out for the barnacles stuck to the ceiling, for one thing.
2 of 6: Drop down into the water.
3 of 6: Looking around, you'll find a broken grate you can go through to get to the Flow Control valve wheel.
4 of 6: Turn it to raise the local water level.
5 of 6: Now you can jump up on a green barrel, and from there to the walkway around the side of the room.
6 of 6: Grab the shotgun and ammo from near the dead guard, then continue on to the broken catwalk room.
