The Hand of Fate Hints
How do I use the water wheel?
1 of 9: Have you looked at it closely?
2 of 9: Then you might have noticed that a stick is jammed in the wheel.
3 of 9: Click on it to pry it out and the wheel will start running. (Look on the far right side of the screen for the stick).
4 of 9: Now that the wheel is running, you'll notice that the hand starts slamming itself down on the ground.
5 of 9: The hand can probably crush anything that you put underneath it.
6 of 9: Some items are meant to be crushed -- you'll know what those are when you read other hints. If you see a message like "It was smashed", then you know that you've crushed an item that you didn't need to.
7 of 9: To retrieve those items that you were supposed to crush, you need a fairly large scooping device/container.
8 of 9: The farmer has one that you can use.
9 of 9: Take his dragon's water dish and use that on the space underneath the hand to get what you need.
