16. At party: Open handbag. Look at Arthur. Drop plate. Get jacket fluff. Put fluff in handbag. Get plate. Seek out Phil for your return trip.

The Incredible Hulk
1. Tip chair. Read sign. Take gem. Take fan. Take mirror. Look mirror if you ever wonder which of you is you.
2. Push button (only once for full game). Bite lip. Go tunnel. Get gem.
3. Lift dome. Get gem. Dig. Go hole. Dig. Get gem. Up.
4. Like the sign says, drop your gems here. Don't go north from here for a while. The other three directions are random, so keep trying until you get the one you want.
5. At the Chief Examiner's desk, look desk. Take gem. Go door.
6. Get gem. Lift dome. Get gem. Dig. Go hole. Dig until you find something. Get ge. Up. Wave fan. At mesh. Go dome. W. Take wax.
7. Get gem. Move away from ants as you only get one move until you are ready. Go back and lift dome. Take gem. Dig. Go hole. Dig until you find something. Take gem. Up.
8. Take two gems. Look baseboard. Look outlet. Plug outlet. With wax. Bite lip. Ask Dr. (three times until he leaves). Take gem. Take wax.
9. Remember nightmare. Go dome. As the Hulk, pull ring. (Don't go down if you wish to win the game.)

11. Plug ears. With wax. Go to the ant hill. Hold nose. Close eyes. Take ants. North. Remember nightmare. North. Go crack. Open eyes. Take gem. Take bio on the way out.

Infidel
1. After getting up, collect all objects at the fire pit, work tent, and supply tent. Break lock on chest with ax. Remove and drop lock. Open chest. Get map and beef. At the Nile, drop knapsack. Open, fill, and close canteen. When you get hungry, have water close at hand. The knapsack can carry many objects, obviating an inventory management problem, but at the cost of having to drop them to get at any of the contents, and, perhaps, forgetting to pick them up again.
2. Open crate that the plane dropped. Get navigation box. Push button to get your latitude and longitude. Use the box to find the location marked on the map that came with your game. Dig with the shovel until you uncover top of pyramid. Unfold the map and put the cube in the hole. Check the hieroglyphics.
3. Get torch. Open jar and dip torch in it. Drop knap and get matchbook. Take match and close matchbook. Light torch with match. Close and take jar. (Torch may require this procedure during game; extinguish it before dipping.) Tie rope to altar. Take and throw rope to north. Take knap. Go either north or down.
4. Move statue. Take head and gold cluster. Roll statue northeast (for example), drop the head (to match your weight on the floor). Go southwest to the room of Isis and get emerald cluster. Get the head and roll statue into another diagonal corner, moving in the opposite direction until you've gotten all four jeweled clusters. Note the hieroglyphics in each room; they differ but slightly, offering a clue to their decipherment. (Hint: a "direction" and name appear in each.)
5. Compare the scroll hieroglyphics to those in one of the cube rooms; note what may well be the numbers one through nine.
6. Examine slot and remove shim. Put torch in knothole. Now it's safe to drop all. Lift mast. Get all. Go up and get beam (mast), noting its hieroglyph.
7. Examine the dead adventurer for the (poison) ring. Save the game and wear ring. Deciphering the chamber or the silver or gold room hieroglyphics here would give away too much! Be content by getting the gold and silver chalices.
8. Take and drop first, third, then fifth brick, just like the scroll "tells" you to do.
9. Break plaster with ax.
10. Place mast in the niches, like the hieroglyphics there tell you to do. Stand on the beam. Break plaster with ax. Open door.
11. You need the mast again. Put the mast between the rocks. Open door.
12. Put the jeweled clusters in their appropriate corners to match up with the god's rooms in which they were initially found, diamond in first, ruby in second, emerald in third, and opal in fourth. Be sure to take your knapsack. Lift slab. Get book and spatula. Read book, noting its hieroglyph. Open book with spatula for a little more easy reading! Take beam when you've left.
13. Put the beam under the timber. Examine the door and break the seal with the ax. Open door.
14. Put the gold and silver chalices on the two empty discs on the left and on the right. Pour water into the silver chalice, or as an alternate, put the cigarette pack in the silver chalice. This will balance the scales, and permit you to get the scarab. Note its hieroglyph.
15. Place the book in the large recess of the queen's sarcophagus, and the scarab in the small recess. (This is a direct translation of the hieroglyphics in the book.) Turn the gods in the order implied by the number of "@" in each of their names, that is, Neith, Selkis, Isis, and Nephthys. When you now move the lid, you have won 400 points but lost something else. Yes, this is the end, there is no other way of getting a perfect score, and no way of avoiding this ending. You can, however, by using the beam to cross the pit, get out of the pyramid with 395 points.

14. Fill. Give bowl to woodcutters. Get fiddle.
15. Plant magic beans. Climb beans stalk. Alternately, use the key to open the cave door. Save the game, as the climb is sort of tough to accomplish the first time.

18. Jump in water. Dive.

A Mind Forever Voyaging
Note: I played this game on a gamma test version, thus there may well be some difference between this solution and the version of the game you play.
You are the first sentient computer, awakened from a simulation mode that you've been in for some twenty years to learn that you are a computer called PRISM. The leader of the complex is Abe Perelman, who is the only human that you will deal with. You are told that you are now ready to begin a project to simulate what the country would be like if a certain socio-economic plan is implemented. There are not too many puzzles as such in A Mind Forever Voyaging, hence this solution is in narrative form rather than step by step as with most games.
The game has three parts and an Epilog. Part I is an introduction in which you go on your first simulation. In Parts I and II, the name of the game is to explore and record. Before you leave, Perelman's associates will give you a list of the things you are to accomplish. Basically, you need to visit various locations, record what you observe there, and bring the record back to Perelman, When you successfully return the information that Perelman needs, you are sent on the next part. There is much text associated with the extensive map of Rockvil during the periods of 2041, 2051, 2061, 2071, and 2081. Initially, however, you can only venture to 2041.
There are four mode which you may enter or go to:
Communications mode:
You may see, hear, or speak in this mode.
1. PRISM project control center (PPCC)
2. research center rooftop (RCRO)
3. Dr. Perelman's office (PEOF)
4. PRISM facility cafeteria (PCAF)
5. maintenance core (MACO)
6. World News Network feed (WNNF)
Library mode:
Follow the instructions.
Interface mode:
Interrogate and direct other interface devices, such as the HVAC. Data is found in the library mode. The ventilation must be turned off in the maintenance core when the saboteurs enter.
Simulation mode:
Enter you security clearance wheel, and be sure to do the following:
1. Eat a meal in either restaurant.
2. Buy a newspaper at Bodanski Square.
3. Ride public transportation at any tube station.
4. Talk to a government official at the city hall.
5. Buy some clothes at Dunbars.
6. Go to a movie at the cinema.
Try to accomplish these tasks in each of the simulation periods. In later simulations, some tasks cannot be accomplished and there will be new events for you to record, such as the police raid in the dorm, the general decay of the neighborhood, and the skycar factory output.
"Abort" will get you out at any time. Since you alone can see what happens, it is necessary to use the recorder. Be sure to turn off the recorder (record off) as soon as you've recorded what you want, as the buffer isn't overly large. If your buffer is full, return to Perelman. You may need to sleep while awaiting his arrival. The recorder may also be used in communications mode.
Part II continues and builds new simulation periods through 2081. You can return to an earlier simulation period if you wish, but there is little reason to. The later periods are dependent on you success in the earlier periods; you can't get to 2061, for example, until you have gathered enough data from 2041 and 2051. In some of the later simulation periods, there are a few things that you won't be able to do, like buy a newspaper or ride in the tube, and you can record this fact. More significant things to record include the police raid in the dorm at Rockvil University, the decay of the city overall, such as is found at some of the parks, or the fact that buildings you say in earlier periods are gone. Turn your recorder on, and type look, and then turn record off. Your son, Mitch, goes off to join the Church of God's Word, making Jill, your wife, your wife, very despondent. You may have to replay certain parts from a saved-game position in order to capture action sequences on your recorder. Check Rockvil Stadium, where the Christians and the Lions are at it again in the form of Criminals and Robots.
Part III, in 2031, is more of a puzzle phaze. Go to PEOF, from the communications mode. Wait for Perelman and Senator Ryder to appear. Turn the recorder on to record their heated conversation. Later, some individuals dressed as PRISM personnel enter the maintenance core, intent of sabotaging one of your cooking systems. Foil this attempt by entering communications mode, go to MACO, from the communication mode. When they enter the room, enter interface mode and enter HVAC, status. You are given a description of the areas that it controls in the PRISM facility. HVAC, turn off ventilation in the sector that represents the maintenance core. The third puzzle requires that you wait for the World News Network Feed Interface coming on-line. Enter feed, send record (of the Perelman/Ryder confrontation).
After Part III the game is essentially over, and you enter the Epilog. There are no puzzles here, so when Perelman tells you that your final simulation for 2091 is ready, type enter simulation. Continue to type l and enjoy the text. The simulation starts in your house. You have a few moves to look around until Jill tells you that the skycab has arrived. You will fly to the spaceport and the ending of the game.

9. Be at the fireplace at 10:53. When Marston drops the paper into the fireplace, take paper.
10. Show trust to Michael and Marston. Ask Michael and Marston about trust. OK, so you don't get much of a reaction.

Suspended
1. To minimize casualties, send a robot to weather control, turn second dial to zero.
2. Repair iris. Have Waldo wear the extension from middle supply. Open the maintenance panel, replace the rough device with the rough object in the basket, and close the panel.
3. Repair the machine in the main supply by taking out the bubbly and the disfigured devices. Put the red object (from the basket) in the red socket, and the yellow object in the yellow socket.
4. Get the first replacement cable in the main supply by pushing button on machine, taking the fuse, then taking the cable. Be sure to put the fuse in the machine again, and to write down the possible computer reset code.
5. Get beyond the hallway junction by getting the ramp from sub supply and putting it on the step. Carefully check out the sub supply for other objects, even though you don't need them.
6. After getting to the sloping corridor, take the ramp and go to the small supply. Drop and stand on the ramp to get the cutting tool. Pick up the ramp again, and go to the hallway end. Get in, then get out and get the TV camera in the biology laboratory. The vehicle from the hallway end won't run for all robots, and some can't get into it.
7. The "talking mechanisms" can be slowed down considerably by having Auda follow them to the sleeping chamber, taking the bag and going to maintenance access. The humans will follow and fix the acid leak that kills off your robots.
8. Get the second replacement cable in gamma repair. Have Sensa look at the large object and then turn the flow switch. She needs the help of another robot, so "both Sensa and xxx, move Fred," then name ascribed him by Poet.
9. In either channel, plug the TV camera in and point it at different objects to get the lay of the cables and their reset codes for the FC. It is a good idea to save the game before playing around with the cables, for several reasons.
10. In the primary channel, replace the red four-inch cable with the red twelve-inch cable from Fred.
11. In the secondary channel, replace the orange nine-inch cable with the orange fourteen-inch cable from the machine in main supply. Poet can't tell which is the bad one, so the way to find out is to take them out one at a time. The one that doesn't kill your robot is the bad one!

Witness

5. Several key objects to look at or analyze appear at one location. Be sure to check out the clock.
6. While your Colt can (but needn't be) used, some significant changes can be wrought with the appropriate use of the handcuffs. (Handcuff her!)
7. Look around for a place to hide. Check the sofa and wait.

2. Drink water. (Check your starting inventory.)

4. Kill troll. Again, until he's done in. Leave his axe. Drop all but lamp.
5. Get painting. Exit studio into kitchen. (Can carry only two objects from studio.) Start putting treasures into trophy case, but carry the egg so that thief may steal it (so be sure to get it!)
6. With rope and lamp, tie rope to rail. Climb rope. Get torch. Turn off lamp (conserve it wherever possible). Should thief steal torch before you get the diamond, go to steps 19 through 21. Otherwise, its's advantageous to have thief steal you blind! Leave bell, book and candle for now.
7. Get coffin. Pray (at altar). Trap door will now stay open rather than locking shut on entry. In clearing or behind house, open coffin. Get sceptre.
8. Wave sceptre. Get pot of gold. Add gold, coffin and sceptre to the trophy case.
9. Get all (wrench, screwdriver and tube of gunk). Push yellow button to enable the console in the lobby. The brown button disables it. Pushing the blue button will flood the joint, but gives you a few moves to get out.
10. Turn bolt with wrench, opening sluice gates. Drop wrench.
11. Inflate bolt (with pump). (When getting pump, it's easier for now if you leave the trunk and, especially, the trident.) Launch. Wait or look until you drift south to buoy. Get buoy. Land. Open buoy. Get emerald. Don't push you luck by going further south; it's a long way down! The sceptre and trident are tough on rubber boats , but the tube of gunk can repair boat.
12. Dig sand with shovel until you find scarab. Drop shovel. Either walk over solid rainbow or carry boat to sandy beach. Launch. West (to white cliffs). Park emerald and scarab in the trophy case. Head back for more with the lamp, torch and matches. Temporarily drop off screwdriver.
13. Echo. Get platinum. Both platinum and coffin are especially heavy, so that you can carry relatively fewer objects.
14. With bell, book and candle from altar area, drop candles, if lit. Ring bell. Hold candle (light candle with match, if necessary). Read book. Get crystal skull. Leave bell, book, candle and matches. (Use only the matches to relight candles. Save game and try light candles with torch or lamp.)
15. With lamp, torch and screwdriver, drop (or just hold) garlic in bat room. Leave jade figurine for now.
16. Put screwdriver and torch in basket. Light lamp. Don't check out the gas room with the torch! Run down and get coal. Add it to basket. Lower basket.
17. Drop all. You can now go west from the timber room.
18. Open machine. Put coal in machine. Close machine. Turn switch with screwdriver. Get diamond. Reload basket with everything except screwdriver. Pick up bracelet, jade figurine, and basket goodies. Slide down to cellar and stow the treasures.
19. With lamp, nasty knife (or sword), food, water and key, get coins. (save game and try throwing rusty knife.) Feed cyclops the sandwich in the brown bag. Give water to cyclops. A less elegant but more effective approach is to say ODYSSEUS. (Read the prayer book, and note that the first letters of each line put together spell out ODYSSEUS.)
20. Key may be used to unlock grate from inside. Note nice touch if you have or haven't moved leaves, which may also be burned or counted.
21. Carrying lamp, nasty knife (or sword), the jeweled egg (if it hasn't been stolen already), and all the treasures that you can, confront thief in his storeroom. Give him each of the treasures to load and slow him down. Kill thief. Again, until he's vanquished. Should you ever try to polish him off elsewhere, earlier in the game, save the game first, as your chances of success are slim, but there.
22. With the clockwork canary (that was in the jeweled egg opened by the thief's nimble fingers), climb tree. Wind clockwork. Mother song bird will come and drop a brass bauble, the last of the needed points.
23. Return all treasures to the case. If all fifteen are stored, an ancient parchment will appear. With it, a secret path can be found, and the beginnings of Zork II are revealed.
