Physicus Hints
How do I make the telescope work?
1 of 11: You can look through it now, but everything is fuzzy.
2 of 11: The lens must be wrong.
3 of 11: Take the lens out and scan it.
4 of 11: Look through it again.
5 of 11: Still not quite right. You can put a different lens in it, if you have one.
6 of 11: Open the lens holder and scan in the new lens. Click on the hinged lid to place the lens.
7 of 11: Once it's clear, look around until you see the back of a door with the first letter of a code.
8 of 11: Moving the view is strange; think of it as dragging the place you want to see into the center of the window. So if you want to scan left, drag the hand cursor from left to right.
9 of 11: It's almost all the way at the lower left.
10 of 11: Remember this when you find the door in the courtyard off the Town Square.
11 of 11: It's an F. You see it backwards because it's the back of the door.
