Safecracker: The Ultimate Puzzle Adventure Hints
How do I get the key from this puzzle?
1 of 4: It looks like you can just reach down and pick it up, but no; there's apparently a glass plate over all of it except for that bit that sticks out at the right. You need to get the piece with the key in it into that box.
2 of 4: So you'll need to clear a path for the key piece. To do that, pick up (that is, left-click on) the little round thing at the left to find out it's a magnet. Use the magnet to drag the pieces around under the glass.
3 of 4: There's no question that this is a royal pain in the neck, at least for people like me. Just when it feels like I'm about to get it, I find myself apparently completely blocked in and unable to do anything except put the pieces back where they just came from. Yargh! But it can be done, I promise, and here's one way.
