Don’t go on until you have actually found a holographic control in the Mechanical Age.The graphic in the control looks a lot like the Fortress doesn’t it?This is a way of practicing for rotating the Fortress, later.Have you experimented with the two levers?The Fortress seems to move using magnetic attraction and repulsion......with the four red objects being the magnets.Practice with the levers and, in particular, with their timing to learn the exact sequence and timing needed to move the Fortress reliably.Warning: the next clue gives the exact solution to this question.To move the Fortress 90°, push the left lever, and then hold the right lever for about 10 seconds and then release it. Wait a further 5 seconds, and then set the left lever to its original position.</text>

<text>Don’t go on until you have opened the Rocket Ship.The Rocket Ship needs a code to operate.It’s a musical code.Don’t continue until you have read all the books in the Library.One of the books contains a picture of a piano keyboard. Write the picture in your Myst book.Now play those keys in order on the organ in the Rocket Ship.To get the tone right, set one tone at a time. Play the appropriate key on the organ, and then match that tone on the Rocket’s panel.When all tones have been entered correctly, the entire tune plays in sequence (recognise this tune?).Pull the lever to activate the Rocket.The Rocket Ship takes you to the Selenitic Age.</text>

<text>Don’t go on until you have found a smaller version of the Giant Cog elsewhere on the island.The smaller cog is in front of the Tumbler puzzle in the Clock Tower.To solve the puzzle, you need to make the tumblers match the numbers from the Tower Rotation code.This puzzle can be completed in eight moves.Once you have matched the tumblers, the Giant Cog opens.You use the Giant Cog to get to the Mechanical Age.</text>

<text>Don’t go on until you have found another submerged ship.There are two puzzles you need to solve here.Don’t go on until you have read the books in the Library.One of the books describes eight constellations in the night sky.But it’s always daytime on Myst Island.Except for one location.Don’t go on until you have the Tower Rotation code for the Dock.The code is three dates. Have you found anything on Myst Island that could use dates?Enter each of the dates into the Observatory computer and note which constellation they match.Don’t go on until you’ve found objects on Myst Island with similar pictures to the constellations from the Library.Turn on the posts below the Library that correspond to the constellations you drew.The small model ship in the pool is no longer submerged, and neither is the large one at the Dock!The Ship takes you to the Stoneship Age.</text>

<text>Have you viewed the secret message in the forechamber?Have you turned on all the marker switches?Have you played with the paintings in the Library?Have you played with the map in the Library?Press on the tower icon on the map until the beam lines up with an object. (Let go when the beam turns red.)Then go through the secret entrance and ride the elevator to the Tower. One ladder shows you the ‘exit-point’ to an Age, and the other shows one or two codes you will need to solve the puzzles that will get you there.Use the map in the Library to line up the beam on each marker switch and, for each one, go to the tower and write down its codes.This may be a good time to turn on “Zip” mode, to relieve the tedium.</text>
