Nightlong Hints
I can't open the door to the bookstore.
1 of 15: Have you heard the recorded message at the Sphinx?
2 of 15: If not, try to enter the Sphinx and you'll hear it.
Note: for some reason or other (a programming error, I suspect) this puzzle cannot be solved unless you've heard the message.
3 of 15: It's not possible to enter from the zoo -- but there is another way in.
4 of 15: Think of a door you found that wouldn't open.
5 of 15: Do you remember the door somewhere with a seized up hasp?
6 of 15: Yes, you'll have to return to the maintenance room on the platforms.
7 of 15: Make sure you've got something with you to fix the hasp.
8 of 15: Maybe you should have one quick drink at the bar in the zoo before you set out for the maintenance room.
9 of 15: I said one drink -- don't go and get "oiled" at the bar!
10 of 15: There's nothing like a drop of oil to fix a seized up hasp.
