The Mystery of the Nautilus Hints
How do I attach the rope to the laser?
1 of 6: This is kind of a nebulous action.
2 of 6: Look around the area of the laser, noticing where the cursor icon changes.
3 of 6: Note the cursor when you are looking at the periodic table of the elements at the end of the room.
4 of 6: Click there with the rope. It will attach itself to the laser device.
5 of 6: Look carefully at the other end of the rope, and see where it goes.
6 of 6: Note that the far end of the rope goes out the vent near the top of the wall, into the Grand Corridor.
