GENERAL TIPS

- Whenever you see a sparkly area click on it, since it is an area you need to interact with.
- When you see small glints appear in the scene, it means that you need to take a closer look at that area. There may be something hiding in that spot.
- You will collect several inventory items along the way. Some will be used right away and others will be used much later in the game.
- Inventory items go at the bottom of the screen; when the inventory gets full, use the arrows on each corner to scroll through all your items.

- From the Main Menu you can access the options for the game, change players, and look at credits and extras.
Navigation and Cursors
- Use the arrows in the scene to navigate the Painted Tower. In most scenes you can move in more than one direction, so experiment placing your cursor in different areas.
- The hand allows you to pick up an item in the scene. The items you pick up with the hand cursor will go into your inventory.
- A jigsaw piece indicates that you need to use an inventory item in that spot.
- When you see a magnifying glass appear it means that you will be able to get a closer view of a portion of the scene. Often times you can pick up valuable inventory items in these close-up views.
