Uru: Ages Beyond Myst Hints

How do I talk to the man at the trailer?

  • 1 of 3: Most of the times I walked up to him, my cursor changed to indicate that I could click on him, but clicking didn't do anything.  I think this may be the result of a bug, and if that happens to you, you're not missing any puzzles or anything like that.
  • 2 of 3: I found that he would sometimes talk to me I walked close, even without any prompting.  Just getting near enough will get him to start talking on his own accord -- or at least that's how it worked for me.
  • 3 of 3: The man basically acts as an in-game hint system for the desert -- he will give you little tips every once in awhile about what to do next.  But as far as I know, nothing he says is any big secret.  And he won't give you hints for everything you may get stuck on, so you may prefer just to stick to these hints.
