Hi guys!

My first post in aeons bow

Im having trouble with the tower and have struck a bug in the past where my pedastal disappeared and i hung unable to move over a hole so I reloaded a saved game and played again. Now, my slate is on the weighted pad and the game won't let me go near it. I can only walk around the other side of the tower after we descend. Is this right or another bug? I can't pick the tablet up and the Bahro dont come and get it??
any suggestions? Smash

Go back to the saved game and keep the slate with you, when you go on the scale.

Since this is a counterweight problem, you need to raise the tower above the walkway so that when you link in, it will sink to the level of the walkway. If you don't do the sums correctly, you will be too heavy for the tower and it will sink to the lowest level.

You need to weigh yourself and the slate on the machine to the left of the tower. I got a total of 7 rings (2 x 3 +1).

Recall that to balance the tower so it is level with the walkway requires 9 rings and you weigh 7 rings so you need to set a total of 16 rings (9 + 7). I got this total by opening both 4 ring eyes, both 3 ring eyes and both 1 ring eyes. Press the golden button and up goes the tower.

To get to the top of the tower, head back to the cage, link to the bubble and from there back to the tower. Wait for the tower to gently sink and step off onto the walkway.

I am having the same difficuties as bohemianjangle and being a little dim witted - how do you get to saved games since it seems to be an "autosave?"

mystlover,

On page 8 of the user manual it states "To bring up the Settings and Options controls, just move the mouse to the top right of the screen. If the screen is locked onto the mouse, right-click to unlock it. Or, if you don't have a right mouse button, press the Esc key to unlock your mouse, allowing you to move your mouse to the top right of the screen. You'll notice that a few icons pop down."

Click on the square with an "X" in it. That takes you to the Main Menu, from which you can load a saved game.
