Machinarium Hints
How can I lure the pet out?
1 of 13: You're going to need to feed him. He's a robot, what do robots like?
2 of 13: Oil!
3 of 13: See the buoy in the water? That's got an oil symbol on it, and a little tap too -- looks like we could get it to squirt oil somehow if we could control it.
4 of 13: To do that, you're going to need to find your way up to the platform on the upper-left overlooking the water.
5 of 13: See that ladder leading up to it? The ladder that begins halfway up the wall? You need a boost to get up there.
6 of 13: Those red crates are perfect.
7 of 13: Well actually, one would be perfect, because two are too high to climb.
8 of 13: Push the crates to the left, onto the screen with the pink robot.
9 of 13: See that magnet at the top, next to the stairs?
10 of 13: Push the crates under it, and then use the control panel at the top of the stairs to turn it on.
