Space Quest V: The Next Mutation Hints
How do I rescue Cliffy?
1 of 9: You have something in the pod bay that's made for rescues.
2 of 9: It's the EVA. You'll need to use it to rescue him.
3 of 9: First of all, start by rotating the pod with the control unit and hopping in.
4 of 9: The controls are really pretty easy. Move the cursor around and the arrow will show you what you're about to do.
5 of 9: Cliffy is the red dot on the radar screen. Start by flying to him.
6 of 9: Once you're close enough, you'll get a "Target in range" message.
7 of 9: So now's the time to use the claw to grab him.
8 of 9: Move the arm forward, hit CLAW to open the claw and CLAW again to close it.
9 of 9: You can now fly back to the Eureka and get your points for a job well done.
