Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure Hints
What is my overall goal in the Tesla Institute?
1 of 3: You're here to get the frequencies for the Spirit Radio. Mantus said they were "on the cloud." All the in-house computers were destroyed by Slade's attack, but there's still a satellite out in orbit that might have backups.
2 of 3: What you're doing in general is trying to reestablish contact with that satellite and download its information. To do that, you need to first restore power to the entire facility by restarting its nuclear reactor, the Titan (don't try this at home, kids!). Once that's done, you'll head for the Communications department to try to talk to the satellite.
3 of 3: You're also going to be trying like crazy to survive. This is a very dangerous environment with unexpected hazards everywhere. Move with extreme caution, and save frequently (and with unique names). And gather every extra point you can find -- you'll need it.
