Title: Help Lara
Post by Lara on 20.11.2007 at 06:12:44
Hi all,

The 9-page thread scares me a bit so I started a new one.

So, I hate room 31296 (after save point 3) as I really can't figure out how to get to the right mirror image. Also, once I go down the pole in room 31298 I can't get out again.

The only thing I can do at the moment is go through the multi-coloured doors at the bottom at the ship and explore the engine. Any suggestions on how to get to the right mirror image?

Thanks!!!  :D

Hi Lara.
1. You cannot go to the right part of 31296.
2. Yes, you can go up again after going down the pole - but in a different room.

Thanks Brell,

Can I get back to where the pole starts without running around the bowels of the ship? And I don't like that there is a purple key in the right side of room 31236, a complete misnomer.

:).

a) Yes, you can.
b) Remember, this room is a room ....  and it's mirror image.  Perhaps you should go through the 9 pages thread  ;)

Sorry to be boring, but I get frustrated with MM games when I can't see any logical way forward. What number room gets me back up to the level of the pole? I'm going round and round in circles in this section and it's not making me happy. These things make me bored and so I bugger off and play a different mansion.

Have you been through Psychotronic's cabin yet? I mean the mirror room.

I have been through the mirror room a number of times.

OK, so youv'e been through that room, coming in from the bottom and going up to the next room above at the top.  Don't you find it strange that there seems to be nothing in the room above?

Hello and Merry Christmas! I need to find out how to get onto the bottom level of room 30503 so I can proceed to the left. I have been to the top and have 4 yellow and 1 blue key. I understand how to end the game from here, but I want to go back to the room with the broken ladder and red and yellow doors. How do I get there from here?

Thanks! Nancy

Nancygevans, can you give a description of that room?  I don't have a copy of MM or the mansions, so I need more info to be (hopefully) able to help you.

It is the blue tiled room 2 levels directly above the end of the ladder maze, with a save pedestal. I haven't been able to access the bottom level and go left, which is where a lot of the rooms I haven't been to are. Maybe the access is from the other side of the hidden rooms, earlier in the game? If so, can you tell me where to get in?

Thanks, Nancy

Hi Nancygevans.  Yes, you have to use another entrance to those "hidden" rooms.  From where you are now it is propably best to find your way to the aft of ship and from there go back to the fore.  The way to the "hidden" rooms is through my cabin, but you have to have a certain key with you.

Two notices:
1. When I was building the ship I wanted to have a quick entrance to the "hidden" rooms from the room you are in now, but Freddy, my main beta tester of this mansion, talked me out of it.
2. When I first released TPI the way from the aft back to the bridge area was not included, but I got so many complaints that I decided to change that.

Perhaps, when I can, I will change this back:  a) open the way from the blue room that Nancegevans is in to he "hidden" rooms and b) close again the way from the aft to the bridge since it wnðt be needed any more.

Thanks Brell and Merry Christmas! I'll give it a try.

OK I found the way into the hidden rooms but I am lacking the purple key I need there. I figured out it's the one in the right side of the mirrored rooms, but I can't get to it. Please give me a hint how to access the right side of the mirrored rooms.

Thanks, great mansion!
Nancy

Nancy,

In an earlier post in this thread Brell says:
   "1. You cannot go to the right part of 31296."

You need to find the purple key on the left mirror side. :-/

Thanks! I guess I'm barking up the wrong tree. But I am one purple key short when I go to the hidden rooms. Maybe I'm using them in the wrong order.

P.S. I did find the left purple key.
