If you are on the Bulletin Board ready to agree to an assassination, click on the Hang Up button and not the Telephone icon once you've agreed. If you don't, your target won't be there when you reach your destination and you'll fail the mission.

Helping hand

Steve Bradley offers words of hope, encouragement and consolation to confused gamers.


In pursuit of Leisure

I've been stuck on Leisure Suit Larry 2 and I'm frustrated. I'm at the top of a mountain and there is a green lift but it's operated from within. No matter what I do, it's wrong. I've got sand, matches, hair rejuvenator and a sick bag in my inventory, so what do I do?
Adam Kemp, Broxbourne, Herts

At the top of the volcano, head straight past the elevator towards the crevice. Have you got a bottle? Come on, Adam, you need a bottle. Put the sick bag in the bottle, light the sick bag and chuck it into the crevice - the elevator door will now open for some bizarre reason.

Gun food

I'm writing to ask if you can offer assistance on Cannon Fodder. I can get to the first phase of Mission Eight and then things go badly wrong. Help.
Christopher Peters, Clacton, Essex

The enemy troops come thick and fast so exterminate with haste. Then switch to rockets and head for the two huts. Hide behind the trees on the other side of the river and shoot the first few soldiers then rush in and take out the sniper. There is a mine between the bridges - blow it up, but beware of the booby-trapped bridges for they're spiked.

Now rocket the huts and head back to the top right of the screen and blast the soldiers. Beware though, because the approach is also booby-trapped - grenades are so choice, as Ferris Bueller might have pointed out.

Interestingly, this information was cribbed from Cam Winstanley's Cannon Fodder playing guide, now reprinted and exclusively available in our mail order pages (page 132). And Amiga Power's.

Going ape

In Monkey Island 2, I've found the fourth map piece in the cottage and I know how to get it, I have to beat the old guy in a drinking competition. Unfortunately, I don't know what to do, and all I get from the old chap is, "my grog has gone a funny colour." What's going on?
S Moran, Bicester, Oxon

When Captain Rum brings you the grog (the strong stuff), chuck it over the nearest tree and replace it with near-grog (low in alcohol). Sit down, and when Rum returns, confidently neck the almost-but-not-quite-grog and wait until Rum passes out.

When he's unconscious, put the mirror in the frame, then go outside and use the telescope on the statue. A ray of light will bounce off the mirror and shine on a brick in the wall. Pick up the telescope, go inside, pick up the mirror, then push the selected brick. You will fall in the cellar - there's a skeleton with the piece of map. Pick it up. Not the skeleton, the map.

Simple but effective

I've been playing Sim City 2000 for quite a while now and a helping hand would come in handy. Have you got any cheats?
George McGill, Kilmarnock

No George, but Manual Kasper from Arbon in Switzerland reckons that if you type in `porntipsguzzardo' you'll receive $500,000.

We'll send you The Bill

I'm having trouble with Police Quest 2. I get a call on the radio to go to Cotton Cove. Then I get killed.
Craig Gibbard, Wickford, Essex

So you're on your way to the cove. Your partner gives you a message about a bet. When the message You're On, appears press Enter. Get out of the patrol car, question the jogger then head left ensuring your firearm is at the ready. When Bains turns up, kill him then head up the screen before you're run over.

Be still, my cheating heart

It's been killing me for ages so I can't hold it any longer. Can you please tell me if there's a cheat that gives you loads of money, all the rides, shops and features on Theme Park for the A500.
P Neilson, Birmingham

Sorry, P No. But Christopher Lower form Derby reckons that, in the A1200 version, if you put in your nickname as Mick and then start the game, then exit, and then continue the game again and press Z, you get park features, X for rides, I for shops and press and hold C for cash - about 50K per second.

Operation cheat

I'm completely stuck on Operation Stealth. I've eventually managed to reach the part where I am in the office after the four maze puzzles, but now I haven't got a clue about what to do.
Neil Ruttley, Spalding, Lincs

You're in the office, right? Operate the arm of the statue, which should reveal a safe. Use the box on the safe and Operate it to turn it on. The red light indicates the number order for the code box. For example, if the box shows a seven and the red light is on the far right, then seven is the fourth number. Operate the button to enter the numbers, Operate the box and Take it. The safe opens and reveals some documents. That's enough for now.
