- Well, I've managed to finish levels 1->3 on my own, but the cauldron
- room on 4 really has me stumped.
-
- Spoilers...
-
-
-
- I can plug the hole in the floor with that hanging spiky thing. I can
- shoot the block of ice and catch the gem. I can turn the furnace on
- and off, and move it back and forth.
-
- I think I should put something burnable in the furnace to melt the
- ice. However, the only other objects in that level seem to be the table
- and bookcase in the library. The bookcase, I can only slide back and
- forth. The table also slides back and forth. I can shoot the legs
- off the table one at a time, but I can't catch them. Once the legs
- are gone, there doesn't seem to be anything to do with tabletop.
-
- It's weird, because the game makes a "happy noise" when you shoot off
- the left table leg.
-
- With the acid pit being the only thing separating the furnace room and
- library, maybe I can shoot the table over. No. I know! I'll
- hypnotise all those bats, and they can CARRY the table over. No.
- I'll clean up the tails of the dead fish, and throw THOSE in the
- furnace. No... I'll drain my plane of the leftover gasoline, and put
- THAT in the furnace! No.... I'll grab that flamethrower on the steps
- near the beginning of the level, and use IT to blast the ice!
-
- Ok, this is bugging me a bit. I admit it.
-
- Give me a GENTLE hint. There is obviously something I haven't noticed
- on this level. Just let me know what that is. Don't give away the
- farm, here.
