DR LUTZ AND THE TIME TRAVEL MACHINE WALKTHROUGH

The Present
Read the intro to learn that Dr Lutz wants to go back in time, so he can 
learn why the dinosaurs really died out.  He just has to fix his Time 
Machine first.  He needs to find his wrench to fix the wires, and a 
diamond to power it. 

Look at books in the bookcase, and look at toolbox in the bookcase.  
It's just a pity that you don't keep your wrench in the toolbox.  But where 
could it be?  Look at safe on the right, and try to open it.  It seems that 
you need a 6-digit code.  Oh dear.  Look at flower pot, but you can't 
remember what you planted in it.

Look at fridge, and use fridge to open it.  Take BOTTLE OF WATER 
and also take TOAST WITH JAM as well.  Use fridge again to close it.

Look at TOAST WITH JAM in your inventory to get some WRAPPING 
PAPER.  Now look at WRAPPING PAPER to get a clue - 'In the first 
row go to the ninth then back to the seventh and then run to the forth'.  
Maybe it's something to do with the books?  Use WRAPPING PAPER 
on the books to get another clue - 'Pour the source of life over the life-
less ground'.  Now we all know that water is the source of life, and the 
flowerpot seems to contain lifeless ground.  Use BOTTLE OF WATER 
with the flowerpot, and you will get a code for the safe.  Use CODE with 
the safe, and you will finally get the diamond needed to power your Time Machine.  Use DIAMOND  in the Time Machine (not the engine). 

We found the diamond, but we still need to find a wrench to fix the wires.  
All this hard work is making me hungry!  Look at white rope that is 
hanging through the window, and use the rope to pull it.  The rope is 
used to request snacks from your family.  Unfortunately, your request is 
refused.  Use rope again, and this time a basket is lowered down.  

Look at basket, and take basket to get an APPLE and a SANDWICH.  
Look at empty basket to find your WRENCH.  Yippee!  Now you are all 
set.  Just use WRENCH on the engine of your Time Machine, and then 
use Time Machine itself.  Isn't this exciting?  You can finally travel to the 
past, and... and... 

The Past
What happened?  You only travelled back 80 years.  How disappointing!  
Your Time Machine needs to be repaired, so you need to find some oil 
and some more wire.  There just happens to be a big barrel of oil here.  
Try to use the barrel.  Oh dear, the tap is damaged.  You need to find 
another way to get to that oil.  Let's explore the area.  Use door on the 
left, and go upstairs. 

Talk to the kid about everything to learn that he has lost his yo-yo.  You 
also learn that the trunk in the basement is locked, and only his uncle 
knew the combination to open it.  Head right, and enter the kitchen.  Look 
at PITCHER in the display cabinet, and take PITCHER.  Now leave the 
kitchen, and continue upstairs.  Use door on right, and enter the boy's 
bedroom.  Have a look around if you want.  When you are ready, look 
at PLAYING CARDS lying on top of the desk of drawers.  Take 
PLAYING CARD, and look at it in your inventory to learn that it is flexible 
yet strong.  Look at green folding screen, and then look at 'area behind 
the screen' to find a YO-YO.  Now leave the room.  

Look at door on the left, and try to open it.  Oh dear, it's locked.  Never 
mind, just use the PLAYING CARD on the door to open the lock.  Now 
enter parent's bedroom.  Look at all the photos on the wall to see the 
boy's uncle.  Notice that he has 2 dogs, 1 horse, and 3 cats.  I guess he 
liked animals.  Leave the bedroom, and head back downstairs. 

Use YO-YO on the kid, and he gives you a SHORT STICK in return.  
Continue down to the basement, and look at the big trunk.  Remember 
that only the boy's uncle knew the combination.  We saw his photos up-
stairs, with all the animals - 2 dogs, 1 horse, 3 cats.  You have think back-
wards with these photos - 3 cats, 1 horse, 2 dogs.  Use trunk, and 
enter 312.  The trunk opens, and you get some BLUE CHALK and 
some WIRE.  Use WIRE on the engine of your Time Machine. 

Now you just need to find some oil.  Leave the basement, and make 
your way back up to the kid's bedroom.  Look for LOOSE BOARD in 
the floor, and the use LOOSE BOARD to remove it.  Look at the newly 
revealed 'Gap in the floor' to see some cheese.  If only you could reach 
it.  Use SHORT STICK with CHEESE to pick it up.  Exit the close-up, 
and return to the basement.  Look at rat hole on the right to learn that the 
rat is hungry.  Use TOAST WITH JAM with the rat hole, then use 
SANDWICH with the rat hole.  Finally, use CHEESE with the rat hole.  
The rat will quickly devour it all.  Wait for a while, and the rat will leave a 
DRILL in his rat hole.  Take DRILL, and use it with SHORT STICK to 
make DRILL WITH HANDLE.  Use DRILL WITH HANDLE on oil 
barrel to get PITCHER WITH OIL.  Just what we needed. 

Use PITCHER WITH OIL with the engine on your Time Machine to fill it 
up.  Now use Time Machine, and away we go...

The Future
Somehow, you have ended up in the future.  Will you EVER get to see 
the dinosaurs?  First thing's first - you need to turn of that annoying alarm.  
Look at screen above the replicator to see that it is flashing red & yellow.  
Look at the 3 coloured levers on the wall.  Maybe they control the alarm.  
Leave Blue Lever in the 'Up' position.  Use Yellow Lever twice, to put it 
in the 'Down' position.  Now use Red Lever once to put it in 'Middle' 
position.  If you have done this correctly, the screen will now be flashing 
blue & yellow.  Put all 3 levers to 'Down' position, and the alarm will turn 
off.  Phew!

Unfortunately, your Time Machine needs repaired again.  You need to 
replace the base unit that held the diamond in place, and you also need 
some water for the radiator.  

Let's get some water first.  Look at Water Tank on the right, and try to 
use the tank lid.  There is a lever that opens the Water Tank, but you 
can't get enough leverage to operate it.  Now look at big blue switch on 
the left to see that it controls the air vent, and then use the switch.  Notice 
that the air direction changed for a short time.  That's handy to know.  
Use APPLE with hole next to door on the left.  Now use big blue switch 
again, and watch the APPLE hit the lever and open Water Tank.  Hurrah.  
Use EMPTY BOTTLE with Water Tank, and then use BOTTLE OF 
WATER with the engine in your Time Machine.  

Now to replace the base unit that holds the diamond in place.  Look at 
the Replicator (Unknown Device) on the right to learn how it works.  Take 
BALL from underneath the Water Tank, and use BALL with the 
Replicator.  Use WRAPPING PAPER in the Time Machine, and use 
BLUE CHALK on the Time Machine to get a blueprint.  Now use 
ROUGH SKETCH on the Replicator, and then use Replicator to create 
a new base for the diamond.  Use PIECE OF MACHINE on your Time 
Machine to repair it, and then use DIAMOND with Time Machine to 
power it.  Finally, use the Time Machine itself.  Surely this time it will 
work properly? 

Now sit back and watch the ending.
