The Martian Chronicles Hints
The Tool Kit
You can grab a helmet, a scanner, a data recorder at the Tool Kit. The helmet gives you a heads up display. The scanner helps you to see through Martian illusions, and read Martian writing. The data recorder will take snapshots of your travels, but you must come back to the Tool Kit to view them.
If you play at the harder levels, be careful what items you take, as they take energy to run. You can get an energy recharge from the toolkit, if you really need one. Recharging energy is the most time consuming activity, and you are working against a deadline.
You can also analyze and assemble your crystal fragments in the Tool Kit. This is very important.
