Zork Nemesis Hints

How do I make the iron symbol?

  • 1 of 11: The place for making the iron is accessible only by tank.
  • 2 of 11: Take a look at the mold-making machine on the top floor of this complex.
  • 3 of 11: You can build up a mold by selecting parts of symbols -- click on a symbol piece on the left side, and then click on one of the four quadrants of the mold target.  Do this for all four quadrants, and you have a mold pattern.
  • 4 of 11: Then pull the lever to make the mold itself.
  • 5 of 11: The forge where you make the iron symbol is down a level -- use the elevator to reach it.
  • 6 of 11: As the voice reminds you, this is a dangerous place to be.  But there's nothing you can do to make it safer (besides hurrying).
  • 7 of 11: There was a book on casting iron in Kaine's room that should tell you the basics.
  • 8 of 11: First, take your mold to the equipment at the far end of the forge.
  • 9 of 11: Now, you need to find the right temperature for the iron.
  • 10 of 11: Once you have that, you're ready to cool the iron in the mold.
  • 11 of 11: Press the "arm" button on the panel just next to where you put the mold, and then press the "fan" button.  You now have the magical piece of iron you need.
