Physicus Hints
General Tips
If you have the hard disk space, I highly recommend the full installation so you won't have to swap CDs every time you want to read your laptop.
Physicus does not support autorun, so you will have to run it yourself. It will only run from CD 1.
Stop in every scene and see if you can go left, right, up, down, back, or around to the left or right. There might be a whole area you missed because you didn't realize you could go left.
During most puzzles, a link will be shown at the upper right to the section on the laptop that might be helpful. Read it; these links are really very interesting.
Your cursor turns into a box with a green line if you can pick something up (scan it). A box with a red line means you can put something down there.
To place something, find it on the display at lower right using the arrows. Click on its picture, then drag the created object to where you want it.
