Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure Hints
How do I follow up on the picture I got from Archie?
1 of 10: Along with a huge data dump, Archie also gives you a picture of Margaret Leonard. Try showing it around town to see if anyone knows her.
2 of 10: The important people here are Clint and Rook, and you have to talk to Clint first.
3 of 10: Clint says Margaret had an apartment at the Ritz, but he doesn't have a key.
4 of 10: Rook gives you a book that Margaret said to give you "if anything happened." Huh?
5 of 10: Look at the book in inventory to find that it has a puzzle inside. Can you figure out what's wanted here?
6 of 10: One of the rows of numbers is complete; add it up.
7 of 10: The goal is to make every row and column add up to 15. This is easier than it sounds; the numbers can repeat, and several of them are missing a single number.
8 of 10: The final array is --
9 of 10: 1 5 6 3 4 8 1 2 9 1 2 3 1 1 6 7
10 of 10: When you enter the numbers correctly, you get the "Margaret Leonard Key." Take that to the Ritz's second floor and use it to get into apartment 2A.
