Zork Nemesis Hints
What am I supposed to do in the tower?
1 of 21: Look at the paintings on the wall.
2 of 21: They show you periods from Zork's history.
3 of 21: But the paintings are more than pure information.
4 of 21: Because you're going to be experiencing some of that history.
5 of 21: Click on the hourglass in the center of the room.
6 of 21: And then sit in the chair that's revealed when you do.
7 of 21: Notice that you can rotate once you're in the chair.
8 of 21: Try spinning around a few times to see what happens.
9 of 21: Every time you spin counterclockwise, you go back in time, and every time you spin clockwise, you go forward.
10 of 21: Look out the window to see what time you're in.
11 of 21: You might also find some useful objects out there.
12 of 21: One of them will give you water.
13 of 21: There's an icicle in the window of the Glacier Epozz (the earliest).
14 of 21: If only you had some way of taking it...
15 of 21: Try cutting it.
16 of 21: Use the saw from the time of the temple's construction.
17 of 21: Now the icicle will fall into the bowl. All you need next is some way to make it melt.
18 of 21: Things melt faster when they're really hot.
19 of 21: One of the eras seems especially hot.
20 of 21: Rotate into the Volcano Epozz, and the icicle will melt.
21 of 21: You can then look into the water in the bowl, and you'll be taken to the altar when you click on it.
