Machinarium Hints
How can I make a mine cart stop to get some wheels?
1 of 8: You're going to need to cause a little accident here.
2 of 8: And to do so, you're going to need to find a way to grab that yellow chock that's hanging up at the top of the screen. See it?
3 of 8: Have you fiddled with the control panel below the little silo yet? You can shrink yourself, as well as grow, and get down there to reach it.
4 of 8: Fiddle with the controls and eventually you'll work out how to get a pipe extended out to the yellow chock.
5 of 8: Set the left control to 2, and the right one to A, and then push the red button.
6 of 8: You can now climb the stairs and extend your body to hook onto the pipe, and shimmy along it to the far right to grab the chock.
7 of 8: Now, use the chock with the tracks and pull the lever remotely to make a cart crash.
