I got the other object, but still only 75 points.
Did you take the rock from pluto ? This gives you the other code.

Re: leotrope

I only got 70 points. Were the other five for visiting the other planets?

Yes, There are two more planets where you can land to obtain two more objects needed in the second part. They give you an extra code which you must enter at the beginning of part 2.

I saw that the game in 1996 was ...

I only got 75 points when I solved the game. What score did you have? I've no idea how to obtain the other 25 points. I did use all the objects inside the game.

Re: leotrope

I've completed Part I, but where is Part II?

Unfortunately I've got the same problem. I got the password to part 2 plus an extra password for collecting an object from one of the other planets but, when I want to load part 2 it loads part 1 again. Seems the tape image is incomplete or wrong ...

After the pod has been launched the game tells you're just outside a natural matter translator before it gives the room description. Don't know how to use it though :(

Re: leotrope

I also don't know how to increase my money to buy skins. I go through the green door and come across the translating fafool.I don't know what to do here.

These two questions are connected. Give the piece to the fafool.

Anything to do at the fungus wall?
I didn't do anything at the wall. I ...

Re: leotrope

I see something yellow in the grass. But how to get it?

This is one of the problems which took me some time before I solved it as well. The birds are just scenery. SEARCH GRASS will give you a hint on how to do it. You have to type SEARCH GRASS THOROUGHLY.

I know the answer to your other ...

Re: leotrope

I had not tried 3-word commands. I found gloves there, and the box. Is that where you found the ticket you spoke about?
No, the ticket is outside your house. You can locate it with the membrane (without the membrane you don't get the message) and then you have to use another 3-word command.

Re: leotrope

I just found the manual. I did search the pod before, but it appears you can only find the manual after the pod has been launched. Unfortunately I don't know how to use the commands from the manual. It seems to me you have to use the command MATTER first and then SUN to travel towards the earth, but ...

Re: leotrope

take your own advice and combine the two, i.e. search/look /examine where you are, i.e. the pod, the balloon, the drawer.

I will keep trying but I guess I need some more help here. As far as I know I tried all the possibilities in these these locations but did not find a manual.

Re: leotrope

I'm a bit further although I still don't know how to move the pod nor did I find the manual. I'm trying to use the ladder to climb into the hole of the ceiling in the study but can't find the right command.

This game uses complex commands to investigate a room. For instance it did take some time ...

I just found the drawer when I realized that EXAMINE , SEARCH and LOOK give different responses in this game. Didn't find the manual until now though.
