Sanitarium Hints
I'm having trouble with the morgue door!
1 of 5: Your objective is to get the left gears to join up. Once they are connected, turning the center hand wheel will open the door.
2 of 5: The top right wheel moves the gear in the arched window. The arrows indicate which one you are working with -- the top or bottom gear. The little switches under each saw-toothed mechanism reset it.
3 of 5: Once you have set the direction (left for top; right for bottom), turn the top right wheel three times. Watch what happens to the gears at the very left side.
