Buried in Time is the 2nd installment of this game. It is as vast a
leap beyond the 1st game as the pentium is to the original PC. The
graphics are superb, the interface is easy to use, and the puzzles are
challenging, yet logical (with one possible exception). There are many
items in each time zone that work, even if they are not needed in the
final solution. These add to the rich detail of the game. In addition,
there is a lot of interesting historical information, assuming it's
true, delivered in an entertaining way. I did have a couple of minor
complaints - a couple of the reasons for dying are obsure or misleading,
and some of the items you need to use will not work/move until you have
other items that need to be combined with it thus making it difficult to
determine if you can't use that item at all or just until you combine it
with some other item(s). All things considered, I'd rate this as one
of the better adventure games I've played in a long time. The graphics
alone make this game well worth getting. They are even better than
those in Myst due to their rich textures and attention to details.
Hints
As with any adventure game, examine everything. Read everything
that can be read since you get research points and these items provide
many hints. Finding Arthur 1st is helpful as he provides many hints
along the way, but most puzzles are logical enough that he is not really
necessary right away. The time zones are small enough that you don't
need to do any mapping. Be aware that many of the items needed to solve
any time zone are found in one or more of the other time zones. Also,
the order in which you solve puzzles is not important. However, if you
want hints, find Arthur right away. Even though the game says that you
can leave a time zone, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have all
that you need from that time zone. Finally, be sure to save often.
Note: I was able to finish the game by solving 19 out of 20 puzzles. I
have no idea what the 20th puzzle is. I do know that I used all my
inventory items except the metal bar and the remote control and never
found the batteries for the remote. Do these items have any use?
Gage's Residence
================
- talking to yourself can be very informative
- who said that you never learn anything useful from tv
- sometimes the commericals are better than the programs
- what do you suppose that machine in the kitchen is for
- you might want to listen to Geno now - the experience may be useful
in the future
- I hope you can speak and read all languages, you're going to need to
Chichen Itza
============
- what day do you think it is
- did you know that copper has a low melting point
- what do you think would impress a war god
- you'll be able to advance only if you use your head
- what do you think would impress a rain god
- if you can't climb the ladder to success, get down to basics
- what do you think would impress a wealth god
- why do you suppose the dead land offering slot looks different
- I hope you have the heart to make a blood sacrifice
- you've seen some of those words on the coffer somewhere before
Chateau Gaillard
================
- the jumpsuit is impervious to all environments
- you'll need to grapple with a solution to scale the tower walls
- remember, out of sight, out of danger
- the study contains most of the clues you need for this time zone
- the key to solving this time time is getting down to the bottom of
the problem
DiVinci Studio
==============
- what do you think those metal tracks in the tower well are for
- these inventions ought to come with a set of instructions
- I wonder how DiVinci would attack the problem of getting into a
locked tower. Hmmm, if this was a castle...
- when you find this evidence, you'll be seeing things in a different
light
- I never knew that DiVinci was so interested in anatomy
Farnstein's Lab
===============
- did you read Gage's personal log
- who is that talking? A Interesting question
- no matter how much oxygen you have, it will take all of it just to
enter the Biomass Processing chamber

- what good is an empty water container
Missle Silo
===========
- what could that password be? What do you know about her interests?
- the 1st thing you need to do is get the lights back on
- now, how do you get out of here - didn't agent 3 do something that
might give you a clue
- don't blink or you'll miss the transport code
- wasn't there something new in the news
- INN is truly interactive
- strong Windows users may be able to find the alien prefix codes, but
for most, you'll be seeing red until someone helps you along
Alien Residence
===============
- that control panel must do something, but without a course in alien
technology, you're better off to just go exploring
- there seem to be 3 transporter pods. It's up to you to decipher
which one does what
- there may be aliens here, but you can hide in plain sight
- if the alien went that-a-way, which way do you think you should go
- it is just like the phone company says - let your fingers do the
walking
- you've found the historical artifacts, but you'll need to be very
powerful to get them out of those pods
- figuring out which pod to open 1st will give you an edge
- you have the artifacts and are trying to escape, but you have been
spotted. Stop the aliens before they cut your life short
- you've be caught at the last second and if you don't find a way to
interfere with the transport, you are dead
- you'll only be safe when the alien doesn't have a leg to stand on
Detailed Solutions
This walkthru will get you to the end of the game, but ignores
most of the interesting, although unneeded, steps along the way. It
won't tell you what to read (for the most part), or items that can be
activated if they are not necessary for the final solution. Also be
aware that you get research points that aren't considered here.
