Machinarium Hints
How can I get across the drawbridge?
1 of 12: Check out how the guard got past.
2 of 12: He pulled that pulley, and the other guy saw him, and let him in.
3 of 12: I guess he's only going to let another guard through though.
4 of 12: The fact that he's a guard was indicated by something -- something both the guy in the tower and the guy crossing the bridge had.
5 of 12: Something they were wearing, specifically.
6 of 12: That rather specific blue cone-shaped hat with the flashing light on top.
7 of 12: You're going to need to cook up one of those for yourself.
8 of 12: You'll need a cone, which is light blue in color, and a light for the top.
9 of 12: The cone itself can be found easily -- there are some orange and white traffic cones right there. Grab one!
