Countdown 1

Due to seemingly endless questions I decided to write this. Use at your own
discretion: if you blow up your computer or the joy of gaming I refuse
any liability. Also, I give you almost the minimum trouble-solution, not
the max. score one.
And, this game is sorta tricky: you must save often, after each room in the
sanctuary and in every possible place when out. That way you don't have to
start too far again.In the asylum second and third floor, always walk counter-
clockwise, as that is the way the guards go and you reduce the risk of bumping
into them that way.

Start at your cell: look your medical record, get cup, use cup on bug, get
key. Talk to window, offer bug to nirva, talk to him until you know the name
of doctor.
Wait until you get food, get knife, use knife on window. go window, open
window to your right, enter.
Open door, enter hallway, enter closet on the other side of the hallway,
get blanket and scissors. exit closet, enter barney's cell (bottom door on
the eastern wall) give blanket to barney and talk to him. you get names.exit,
