Space Quest IV: Roger Wilco and the Time Rippers COMPLETE SOLVE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Brought to You by STAR-LINK NETWORK BBS (718) 972-6099 9 Phone Lines / 3.0 Gigabytes 80,000+ Files for PC's / USAToday / 130 Conferences ============================================================================= The Streets of Xenon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Problem: What do I do with pink rabbit? Hint: You need to snare the hare -- you'll need his battery later. You'll find a rope one screen east of the starting screen. Pick it up and walk between the two large red columns in the upper right side of the screen. Choose the rope from the inventory window, and click the ROPE icon on the ground to use it. When the bunny walks into the noose, click the HAND on the rope to catch him. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What am I supposed to do with the rope? Hint: Use the rope to catch the rabbit. Pick it up and walk between the two large red columns in the upper right side of the screen. Choose the rope from the inventory window, and click the ROPE icon on the ground to use it. When the bunny walks into the noose, click the HAND on the rope to catch him. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What do I do with the skimmer? Hint: Search the skimmer by clicking the HAND icon on it. Open the glove box and click the EYE on the object inside. It's a Pocket Pal terminal! Click the HAND to take it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What should I do with the tank and the unstable ordnance? Hint: You can't do anything with the tank itself, but you can take the "unstable ordnance" from inside. I don't suggest it, though, it is unstable! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I avoid the cyborg and the Security Droid? Hint: The cyborg is really fairly harmless, and blind as a bat. Just stay out of his way, and he'll leave you alone. If he gets near you, he'll shriek to alert the Security Droid. There's no escape from the Security Droid. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What about this Dome? Hint: The dome is Sequel Police headquarters, among other things. You can't get to the dome on foot. Later a ship will land, and you can catch a ride up there. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: Where else can I go? Hint: You can't get into any of the buildings on the street. If you've done everything you can on the street, it's time to go underground. On the northeast corner of the intersection is a sewer grate. Click the HAND icon on the grate to open it. ============================================================================= Under Xenon or in the Dome ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Problem: What do I need from the Sanitation office? Hint: Click the HAND icon on the desk blotter for an important message. Don't forget to take the empty jar from the desktop! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I get out of the Sanitation office? Hint: On the left side of the room is a door with a wheel on it. Click the HAND icon on the wheel to open the door, then click the WALK icon on the doorway to walk out. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What should I do in the sewer? Hint: If you took the jar from the Sanitation office, use it to scoop up some of the green slime. Choose the jar from the inventory window, and walk around the sewer until the slime oozes out of one of the grates. Quickly click the JAR icon on the slime, then get away fast! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I get out of the sewer? Hint: There's a ladder halfway down the west side of the sewer. Click the hand on it to climb up. When you're looking out at the street from under the manhole cover, wait for the spaceship to land and the Sequel Police to disperse before clicking the WALK icon on the street to exit your hiding place. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What about this spaceship? Hint: The spaceship is the Sequel Police shuttle to and from the dome. If you're quick, you can sneak aboard and get a ride up there. Wait in the manhole until the Sequel Police disperse, then walk to the ship. Click the HAND icon on the open area just below the leg of the ship to get inside the landing gear compartment. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How can I open the door in the landing bay? Hint: You can open the lock by pouring the green slime on it, but you won't be able to get any further until later in the game. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I avoid getting shot by the Sequel Police? Hint: You need to steal a timepod from this area, but you're going to have to be sneaky about it. Wait for the second pod to land, and for the pilot to get out and walk up-screen. Quickly click the HAND icon on the pod to get in. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: I'm in the timepod, but I don't know what to do! Hint: The first thing you'll need is the User Identity Verification Pirate Protection Program code. The U.I.V.P.P.P. is located in Space Piston Magazine, in the Timebuster 2000SUX Road Test article by Y. Hugh Iotta. Next, make a note of the symbols on the little screen above the keypad -- those are the Xenon coordinates, and you'll have to come back here later. Now punch in six digits and press ENTER. Punch in six more and you're on your way. ============================================================================= Estros ~~~~~~ Problem: How do I avoid the Sequel Police? Hint: The best way to avoid the Sequel Police is to exit your pod and walk immediately to the far West side of the butte. After a large, formidable shadow passes over the ground, walk back to the pod and take the stairway down. There's a pterodactyl just waiting to give you a lift. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What should I do in the nest? Hint: You need to search the Sequel Policeman's body. Click the HAND icon on the body. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How can I escape the nest? Hint: To escape, click the WALK icon on the hole in the bottom right side of the nest. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: Help! I've been captured by the Latex Babes! Hint: These are the famed Latex Babes of Estros. You leave one of them at the altar in a future game, and they never forget a grudge. I'm afraid there's no way out of this one, you'll have to go with them. Click the WALK icon on the hatch to get in the sub. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How can I get rid of the Sea Slug? Hint: When the slug's slimy tentacles are wrapped around your legs, click the HAND icon on the button on the arm of the chair. See those air tanks to the right of your chair? lick the HAND icon on the air tank nearest you. As quickly as you can, choose the air tank from your inventory window, and click the TANK icon on the slug's mouth. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Galaxy Galleria Mall ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Problem: I just arrived at the mall. What do I do? Hint: First pick up the AutoBucks card the Latex Babes dropped. Next, you'll need some new clothes. From the top of the escalator, go West on the walkway. Stop at the Big and Tall Alien store and talk to the clerk. He's got just what you need. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: I need some more money. Hint: If you're dressed properly, go to Monolith Burger and talk to the manager. He'll give you a job. Save your game at this point, and earn as much money as you can. If you get fired, don't restore, just go back in and get hired again. You need to earn at least $26.00. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How can I use the AutoBucks card? Hint: You'll need a clever disguise. Visit the Women's Clothing Store, and talk to the clerk -- if you have enough money, he can help you. When you're all dressed up, go back to the AutoBucks machine and Clean House. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What should I do at the woman's clothing store? Hint: If you have enough money, you can buy a clever disguise here to fool the AutoBucks machine. Talk to the clerk, and he'll give you everything you need. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What should I buy at the software store? Hint: Look in the bargain bin. There are lots of fun things to see here, but the only thing you need is the Space Quest IV hint book. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What hints do I need from the hint book? Hint: There are two hints you'll need to complete the game. One is under the question about the "stupid timepod", the other is under the question about the Super Computer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What do I do in the arcade? Hint: Until you're finished at the mall, I don't advise wandering around the arcade. You can play Ms. Astro Chicken, it's the first game on the left side of the room. Be sure to approach it from the left, and click the HAND icon on it. When you've done everything you can here, come back and have a look around. Walk to the right, rear of the arcade, and wait for the Sequel Police. When they come, get out as fast as you can. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What should I buy at Radio Shock? Hint: The item you need to buy from Radio Shock is the PocketPal terminal adaptor plug. There are several different plugs available, so before you buy one, you should know which one you'll need. To find out, you have to get inside the dome on Xenon and look carefully at the Super Computer terminal. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What can I do at Monolith Burger? Hint: The manager at Monolith Burger would just love to give you a job. To earn a few extra Buckazoids, take him up on his offer. You'll need to earn at least $26.00. If you get fired, don't restore, just go back in and get hired again. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What do I need to do before leaving the Galaxy Galleria Mall? Hint: Before you leave the Galaxy Galleria mall, you should buy a new Generic Space Hero suit from the Big & Tall men's clothing store, get a job at Monolith Burger and earn $26.00, buy the Space Quest IV hint book from the bargain bin at the software store, buy a clever disguise from the women's clothing store, and use the AutoBucks card to clean out Zondra's account. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: I've done everything at the mall, but I can't get any further! Hint: If you've done all you can at the mall, it's time to visit the arcade. Walk to the right, rear of the arcade, and wait for the Sequel Police to arrive. When they come, get out as fast as you can by clicking the WALK icon on the bottom right side of the screen. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I escape the Sequel Police? Hint: Go to Skate-O-Rama and "swim" in the zero-gravity area, being careful to avoid laser blasts from Sequel Police weapons. The best way to ditch them is to start at the East entrance of Skate-O-Rama, swim up, across the top, and down to exit on the West side. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: I've ditched the Sequel Police, what do I do next? Hint: The next thing you need to do is swipe the timepod the Sequel Police came in. When you exit Skate-O-Rama, head for the arcade. Click the HAND icon on the timepod to enter it. Your next stop is Ulence Flats; use the code found in the Space Quest IV hint book to get you there. It's under the question about the Stupid Timepod. ============================================================================= Ulence Flats ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Problem: I've just arrived at Ulence Flats. What do I do? Hint: Gee, isn't this place familiar? Well, Droids-B-Us is closed, and so is Tiny's. The only place you need to go is the bar. Be careful though, the place has really gone downhill since you were here last. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I deal with the Monochrome Boys? Hint: There's nothing you can do about the Monochrome Boys, except to get back at them for what they did to you, and get them out of the way for a few minutes. When they throw you outside, click the HAND icon on their motorcycles. If you've already done this, go about your business quickly and get off this planet. You're in big trouble if they catch you now. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: I've dealt with the Monochrome Boys. What do I do next? Hint: Now that the Monochrome Boys are out of the way for a while, go back into the bar and get the book of matches off the counter. That's all you need from here. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How can I leave Ulence Flats? Hint: Get back in your timepod and enter the coordinates for Xenon. They were on the screen when you first stole the pod -- I hope you wrote them down! ============================================================================= The Second Trip to Xenon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Problem: How do I open the locked door? Hint: Pour the jar of slime on the lock to dissolve it, then click the HAND icon on the door to open it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: I keep getting zapped by lasers in the tunnel! How can I get through? Hint: The items you'll need to get through this tunnel are a book of matches, and an old cigar butt. choose the matches from your inventory window. Click the MATCHES icon on the cigar butt. Now select the cigar butt from the window. Click on OK. Click the EYE icon on the keypad to get a close up view. Now look at the angles of each set of laseR beams. The object is to enter the correct rotation angle for each set, in order to place each in a straight up and down position. With this accomplished, you can walk through the tunnel unmolested. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What are the correct rotation angles for the lasers? Hint: With the beams in the initial position (before you made any attempts to adjust them), and the flashing bar in the top window, press 156 on the keypad, and press ENTER. The second set of beams can be adjusted from the initial position by entering 024 into the keypad. To adjust the last set of beams from the initial position, enter 108 into the keypad. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What do I do once I have made it through the tunnel? Hint: Now you're inside the Super Computer. If this is your first visit to this location, you need to get in and get out as fast as you can. You should be on a walkway. At intervals along this walkway are little boxes. These are terminals for the Super Computer. Click the EYE icon on the first terminal you see, and take a good look at the close-up view. You'll need to buy the PocketPal adaptor plug from Radio Shock that looks like the plug you see here. If you've already been here once, and have the correct plug, proceed to the hint section titled "Inside the Super Computer". --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I avoid the droid? Hint: If this is your first visit to this location, you can only avoid the Security Droids by getting in and out of this area as fast as you can. If you've already looked at the terminal, exit the area the way you came in. If you haven't, return to the previous menu and press 4 for a hint. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: Where do I go from Xenon? Hint: If you've been inside the Super Computer and taken note of the shape of the terminal plug, you need to return to the Galaxy Galleria Mall, and buy the correct adaptor from Radio Shock. The correct coordinates were on the timepod screen before you left the arcade. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Inside The Super Computer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Problem: What is my objective here? Hint: Once inside the Super Computer, you need to use your PocketPal to access the Super Computer. This way, you can monitor the movements of the Security Droids and avoid them as you explore. Your goals are to get to the Programming Chamber and start the formatting sequence that will erase Vohaul from the Super Computer, and to rescue your son, Roger Jr. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I use the Pocket Pal? Hint: Choose the PocketPal terminal from the inventory window, then click the POCKETPAL icon on one of the terminals along the walkway. You should now see an overhead view of the area. The flashing grey rectangle represents you, the flashing blue or green octagon represents a Security Droid. Click on the POWER button to exit this view, and continue along the walkway, avoiding the path of the droid. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: My Pocket Pal won't work! Hint: You may have one of two problems. First, you need the battery from the bunny. From the inventory window, click the EYE icon on the bunny, then click the HAND icon on the battery. Now select the battery, and click the BATTERY icon on the PocketPal. If you've done this, and the PocketPal still won't work, you either need to get an adaptor plug from Radio Shock, or to exchange the plug you have for the correct one. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: Where is the programming chamber? Hint: From the tunnel door, walk one screen North, then one screen West. Take the left stairway down to the next screen, wait for the droid to appear on the right, then walk North again to the top of the stairway. From here walk one screen East, one South, and then proceed west to the programming chamber. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I get inside the programming chamber? Hint: The correct code can be found in the Space Quest IV hint book, under the question "I'm in a room outside the Programming Chamber. . ." --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: What should I do in the programming chamber? Hint: There are several icons on the screen, but only two are useful to you; the DROID icon, and the BRAIN icon. First, point the icon at the DROID icon, click the mouse button, drag the icon to the toilet, and release the mouse button. This will disable the Security Droids and make it easier for you to get around inside the Super Computer. Next, point the icon at the BRAIN icon, click the mouse button, drag the icon to the toilet, and release the mouse button. This will initiate the formatting sequence that will destroy Vohaul. The counter at the bottom left side of the screen tells you how much time you have to rescue Roger Jr. Whatever you do, DON'T put the SQ4 icon into the toilet!! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: Where is Roger Jr.? Hint: From the Programming Chamber, walk three screens East, one screen North, then one screen West to the stairway. Take either stairway down, and proceed West to the glass elevator. Arriving at level 3, walk one screen North, one screen East, then North into Vohaul's chamber. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Problem: How do I rescue Roger Jr.? Hint: You can only rescue Roger Jr. if you have initiated the formatting sequence. If you have done this, walk toward the edge of the platform, and a bridge will extend to Roger Jr.'s platform. Walk across the bridge. Use the mouse or Arrow keys to fight Roger Jr, and force him back into the beam. When he's caught in the beam again, climb down the ladder on the left side of the platform. When you come back up, the disk will be in your inventory. Click the DISK icon on the disk drive, and a menu will appear. Click on BEAM UPLOAD to upload Vohaul into the Super Computer. Click on DISK UPLOAD to upload Roger Jr. into the Super Computer. Click on Roger Jr.'s name, then on BEAM DOWNLOAD. Roger Jr. will be downloaded into his body, and Vohaul will be formatted. ============================================================================= Call STAR-LINK NETWORK BBS - (718) 972-6099 - CALL NOW!!
