Zork Nemesis Hints
How do I move those backdrops?
1 of 8: Take a look at the little control booth backstage.
2 of 8: Do the pictures on the clipboard in the booth look familiar?
3 of 8: They match the backdrops.
4 of 8: The first picture corresponds to the first button on the control panel (which is currently broken), the second picture goes to the second button, etc.
5 of 8: Notice that the backdrop in the second picture is currently visible through the hole.
6 of 8: So if you press the second button, that backdrop will move out of the way.
7 of 8: Keep doing this, and you will eventually be able to get through the hole.
