Space Quest IV Hints
These three rings are no circus! What should I do?
1 of 10: They seem to work by sending deadly beams at you.
2 of 10: The rings rotate if you type some numbers at the console.
3 of 10: Can you see what's going on?
4 of 10: Maybe you could see better if the air was cloudier.
5 of 10: Did you get the stogie from the Monolith Manager?
6 of 10: Did you get the matches from the bar in SQI?
7 of 10: Light up, cough up a lung, and you'll see the beams.
8 of 10: The console will accept some numbers, to a certain degree.
9 of 10: They are the number of degrees to turn the ring.
10 of 10: To be safe, turn them all until they are straight up and down.
