BACK TO SKOOL

When Einstein tries to tell on you, make sure you are sitting next to him and then keep your finger on the S key till its time for your next lesson. He will keep falling off his chair and won't get a chance to utter a word. In the Blue room, turn around and face the door, then press C. The screen scrolls, and if you keep pressing C you can watch the girls school. One problem with doing this it that you can't see yourself and you have to guess your way down to the playground door. Only when you get to the Girls school do you reappear.

CONTACT SAM CRUISE

A game that often causes many cries for help! Here is the solution:

From the start, go to the top of the Hotel Royale. Find the body and answer the telephone. Get the key from No.31 and ring up 7337 twice. After that ring 7162. Go to No.15 and pick up the ringing telephone twice. Pick up another key. Ring 7162 until you are told about the fat man having two keys. Go to the top of the building which is to the left of No.19. Jump onto the side of the wall and then carefully climb down the fire escape. When you get to the bottom, wait until the fat man gets underneath (he's the compulent geezer dressed in white) and jump on him. Having knocked him over, walk on a bit and you'll find another key. Now head towards the green room which is the furthest to the right in the Hotel Royale. To get past the gangster go into room 27, cross the roof, go across the police station roof and onto the roof of No.31 and continue until you get to the Hotel. Once you're in the green room change your disguise to that of a nun. Now answer the telephone. Next go left to the building with the catwalk (it's next to No.74). Go onto the roof and jump onto the edge of the building. When the guard is at the far side, jump onto him and knock him over. Run past him into No.74 where you will pick up another key. You should now have all four keys. The next task is to get a grappling hook from No.74. To do is, get picked up by the gangster inside No.74 and you'll be able to pick up the grappling hook before he gets back, as long as the police don't recognize you. With the grappling hook in your possession go to the top right hand corner of the building next to the fire escape. Face right and press C and you'll throw the grappling hook. If you were wondering how to get past the gangster in front of the police station heres how. Make him follow you as far left as possible, go to the top of No.31 and jump off the roof. If your calculations are correct you'll knock the gangster over as you land and you can then run past him. Jump onto the side of the wall and cross the rope. Once across, press down and you'll enter a room where you'll find a safe with 4 locks. Pick up the budgie and then drop onto the top of No.19. Press the fuse and keep going down and get out as fast as possible. With the budgie in your possession, head towards your apartment. Ring up Lana (7162), and when she is half way up the stairs telephone the police (999). As long as you are wearing a blue disguise she'll be put in jail - otherwise you'll be shot. The case is now solved - but beware, the mob are after you.
