Nine: The Last Resort Hints
Thurston's Outlandish Organ
The pipe organ in the Lobby will be a central part of the game. You will be returning here often and will need to become very familiar with the keyboard. I highly recommend drawing out a replica of the keyboard NOW, at the start of the game, and start filling in the symbols that correspond to each of the notes as you learn them. You can also try "Alt-Print Screen", then PASTE into a Word document to get a printable picture of the keyboard (or anything else from the game.) IMPORTANT: Unless you have a photographic memory, YOU WILL NEED A SKETCH OF THE KEYBOARD with each note deciphered according to Thurston Last's ideology to ultimately win at Endgame. You can start filling in the matching notes and symbols using the music book and sheet music that is located on the shelf of the organ just above the keyboard. You will encounter additional clues about the notes and symbols throughout the game.
Oh, and if you are musically inclined, forget about the normal names for the notes (C, C-sharp, B, B-flat, etc.); this traditional nomenclature has no meaning in the Last Resort!
