The Railway Station
You arrive at Blackfriars railway station. Walk along to the right of the
platform and talk to the paper boy. You cannot buy a paper just yet but
you now know he is selling the "Sporting Times". Leave the Station and
once outside talk to Mossop, your manservant, about how to get home.
He suggests a cab. Walk to the left and use the cab. A map of London
appears. Click on Piers house. Once outside Piers House enter to the left.
Piers House
Listen to the talking cat's story about the Gene Machine. Walk into Piers
lounge (I suppose it should be called a Drawing room). Pick up the cigar
case on the table next to the sofa. Pick up the old copy of the
"Sporting Times" on the sofa. Go to your inventory and search your wallet.
Do this until Piers says there is nothing more of use in his wallet.
A calling card, Club membership card and some money should now appear in
your inventory. By the front door to the house is a letter. Pick it up
and search the letter. Search the letter again and then read it. Walk to
the left and enter the room to the right of the stairs (Mossop's room).
Pick up the Syrup of Figs and the whisky. Go up the stairs and pick up
the key on the table next to Piers bed. Return to the lounge and enter

to get the deeds. On a table near the desk is a so called
"Worthless Artefact" pick this up.
Leave Piers house and take the taxi ( which incidentally is an abbreviation
of Taximeter Cabriolet). Go back to Blackfriars Station
Back at Blackfriars Station

Exit the house and walk to the left. The garden is through the archway.
Before going in to the garden pickup the catnip plant to the right of the
arch. In the garden move to the left to Mirabella. Listen to her
earbashing. Talk to her and ask if there is anything that would make
her happy. Go back in to the house and ask the maid to make Mirabella
some tea. Exit the house and use the cab to the docks.

membership card is not in your inventory. If necessary search your wallet
again).

the butler. Add the whisky to the snuff. Enter the club room. Talk to the

the syrup of figs to the port he is carrying. Talk to him to remind him
to take the port to the Earl. When the Earl has rushed to the toilet pick
up his calling card. Talk to the club members. Exit the club and take

Talk to the professor. Leave the RSI and go to the Professor's house in
Harrow.
Professor's House (Harrow)
Talk to the professor. He wants vitriol (concentrated sulphuric acid),
a remote controller and a ploughman's lunch (for the benefit of those who
are not British this is a meal of bread, cheese and pickles). Exit to
the left through the green doors. Pick up the remote controller to the
right of the statue and the vitriol to the left of the statue. Give the
remote controller and the vitriol to the professor and go in search of
the ploughman's lunch in Whitechapel.
Whitechapel
Go in to the pub and talk to the barman. When he asks why you are a
working man say "I really don't know" then "What does a real man drink?".
Pick up the scrumpy cider and drink it. Talk to the barman again and pick
up the ploughman's lunch. Take the cab back to the professor's house.
Professors House
Give the professor the ploughman's lunch. Talk to the professor and exhaust

Exit to the left through the lab to the space rocket. Click on the rocket
and move to it.
On the Space Rocket
Pick up the hammer, Spade and space suit. Hammer the oxygen pipe to the
right of where you found the hammer. Look at the porthole above Mossop.
There are 3 control levers. Set the right hand lever so that the pointer
on the gauge above no longer moves between 2 points but moves all the
way round in an anticlockwise direction. Now move the other 2 levers so
that the moon appears in the centre of the porthole. Piers will say
they are aligned correctly. Now click on the control panel below the
levers and put the oxygen pipe between them. Once you have landed on the
moon click on the door to exit.
On The Moon
Once outside the ship click on the moon surface and place the camera there.
You now have a photograph. Follow Robert over to the right and enter the
cave. Try to exit through the door next to the hole. You cannot get through.
Look through the hole. Click on Robert and take control of him
(he tend to wander off). Watch him enter the cave through the hole. The
remote control appears on the side of the screen. You need to move him
to the other side of the cave. The controls are RRR UUUU LL UUUUU RRRRR
as far as I remember. Walk across the bridge that Robert has created and
exit to the right.
In this new room dig the mineral area on the floor with the spade.
Search the hole produced to get the moon rock. Go back to the ship and talk to
the professor. Ask what you will collect the cheese with. The professor
gives you an "extractor". Click on the moon rock and click extract.
Return to the ship. When the professor says that you will run out of oxygen
use the vitriol on the moon rock. You now return from the moon. All that
for a photograph! Return to Piers House.

Harbourmaster and exhaust the possibilities. Give the "cigar" to the
Harbourmaster. Walk over to the right and exit past the labourers.
Board the ship.
On board the Ship
On boarding the ship your inventory is cleared out. Don't worry you don't
need these items anymore. Walk right and up the stairs to the bridge.
Talk to the captain and give him the world map. Talk to the captain again.
The ship does not steam for long until the engines break down. Exit the
bridge and walk to the right. Pick up the boathook next to the crate and go in
the door nearby. Walk to the door on the right and pick up the bagpipes and
a quill from the porcupine (search it). Leave this room and enter the door to
the left. There is a porthole in here that you cannot open yet. Go back
on to the deck. Walk to the right and enter the room near the winch
(Engine room). In the engine room pick up the oil can and screwdriver. Use the
quill on the gauge above the valve. Leave the engine room.
Talk to the sailor outside the engine room. Every time you talk to him he spits.
Look at the hole near the winch. Use the oil and then the boathook on the
winch. Talk to the spitting sailor again. Go back to the room with the
porthole and open it with the screwdriver. Take the porthole glass and
place it on the hole near the winch. Talk to the spitting sailor once more.
Pick up the expectoration on the glass. Go to outside the room where you
got the porthole glass. Look at the pipe there- it is leaking. Go back to
the engine room look at the valve and then use the expectoration on glass
on it. Go to the bow of the ship (the front). Try to take the Union Jack
(the flag). You cannot reach it. Ask Mossop to get the flag for you.
Return to the leaking pipe and use the flag on it. Go back to the engine
room again and look at the pressure gauge . Use the bagpipes on the boiler.
We are off again at last.
The Iceberg
Enter the ice cave and board Captain Nematodes submarine.

On the Island
Enter the jungle to the right. Keep going right until you reach the tribal
village. Talk to the chief. He want a gift. Leave the village and pick up
the ivy growing in the jungle just outside the village. Walk back to the
beach and pick up the rock just next to the jungle entrance. Go back in to
the jungle but this time go up the steps in the screen before the village
entrance. Continue up the path (nice view). At the top take the red berries
from the bush. Look at the water nearby. Use the rock with the ivy and then
the berries to make a trinket for the chief. Return to the village and give
the chief the trinket. Follow the guide to the serpent cave.
Serpent Cave
Once inside the serpent cave pick up the cutlass from the pirate skeleton.
Look at the floor panel. Go back to the area where the animals are climbing
on the ivy (just before the village). Use the cutlass on the ivy and pick
up the animal.
Return to the serpent cave and place the animal on the floor panel. Walk
through the trap to the next room. Attempt to cross the lava- you cannot.
Look at the plug in the ceiling. Go back to the lake above the village.
Move to the lake- Piers automatically puts on the diving suit. Keep walking
right until you find the plug. Pull the plug out and return to the lava room.
The lava has now cooled so that you can cross. Enter the next room.
Look at the crystals. Pick up the blue crystal from amongst them
(it appears as crystal rather than crystals). Walk in to the next room.
Look at the pedestals. Note the joke an the floor plaque at the entrance
to Atlantis "Atlantis twinned with Pompeii". Enter Atlantis.
Atlantis
Walk across to the right and use the oil on the attitude adjuster. Use the
attitude adjuster and descend. Walk through the archway. Enter the left
hand door and pick up the Atlantean rock (again for our non British friends
rock is a type of sweet sold at seaside resorts). Leave this room and enter
the right hand door. In this room look at the model and pick up all the
crystals from between the chairs. Return to the room with the lettered
pedestals and place the crystals on the pedestals in the order purple,
green, blue from left to right. Go back in to Atlantis to see Nematode.

You end up in a cage. Talk to the henchman and exhaust the possibilities.
Talk to the tentacle. Talk to the henchman again. Exit to the right. Pick
up a flare from the box on the floor. Use the flare. Use the switches on
the control panel. Talk to Dr. Dinsey. When Dinsey stands on the pedestal
tell Mossop to throw the switch. Return to the room wit the cages. Open the
cages using the switch near the left hand door. Exit to the left to the
