Safecracker: The Ultimate Puzzle Adventure Hints
How do I work this hot water heater?
1 of 6: It's not a heater; it's more of a pump. With a piece missing.
2 of 6: Find the missing piston in a safe in The Small Sitting Room and put it in place.
3 of 6: Now look at the controls on the water tank. See the little triangle?
4 of 6: That triangle shows the water level you need. You do this by sending the water back and forth between the three pistons.
5 of 6: A little experimentation will show you how this works. There are many ways to get to the right level, but here's one:
6 of 6: The left piston holds 3, the middle piston holds 5, and the right piston holds 8. Send the water from 8 to 5, from 5 to 3, from 3 to 8, from 5 to 3, from 8 to 5, and from 5 to 3.
