In the ice age I am unable to get the creatures to warm the pond when I drop the tablet. I have turned all six areas to the right. I drop the tablet with the heat sign in the front center of the frozen pond. I walk back and watch the creature take the tablet. I go to the big pipes with the blue dots and can do nothing there is no heat or steam anywhere. The creature takes the tablet back to the pedastal by the tree. I have tried everything and am very discouraged can anyone help!

I do beleive your valve settings are wrong. Choose one and try all positions drop slate and check the pond, if you do not want a big spoiler.

I suggest you make a save with your symbol(after backing out of the cut-in scene) if you do not like to re-draw everytime.

If you have found something special inside the hut and if you know how, take a print screenshot and with this see if you can find a way to figure out a path to the other side of the pond.

Just a bit more help for you on this one. Looking at the map will give you help directly with the valve positions after melting the pond. But you must hurry - not much time.
