General Hints

• That Mick fellow you may have heard about? Nobody knows who he is or what he's up to. You're just going to have to wait until he shows himself. Who knows, he might even be hiding in plain sight.
• Your dentist may cringe, but indulging in your sweet tooth can give you an extra burst of energy when you need it.
• A warm cup of coffee on a cold night can let you keep going longer.
• The gumball machine in the pizza place is a cheap source of sugar. You get what you pay for, though.
• Plus time per turn is bad. Minus time per turn is good. There's a difference between taking more time to do things and having more time to do things.
• There's a link at the top of the page to your journal. Yes, you keep a journal, even if you didn't know it. It's got some useful reminders about the quests you're on and the things you're up to.
• Coffee is convenient, but there are much better options if you can find them.
• Not all vehicles are the same. There's a reason why skateboarders don't go much further than the neighborhood.
• Watch out if you get beaten up. Some of the side effects can be painful. Thankfully the University Hospital can patch up most of them.
• There are usually other heroes hanging out in chat. Introduce yourself, and you might get some help out of it.
• If you want to be able to explore more of the city, first get yourself some transportation. Second, visit the garage in your hideout to make use of it.
• When in danger or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout. Or check your journal. Probably try the journal first.
• Gambling is not a likely way to get ahead.
• I know most people don't read game manuals, but this one actually provides valuable information. You may find it worth reading. There are links on the top of the page when you're logged in, and links on the login page.
• You don't always need to go to sleep when you're tired. Coffee and candy, anyone?
• It's a good idea to check in with old friends now and then. They may occasionally have helpful suggestions for you.
• Rumor has it heroes who want to get around in style should build their own jetpack. Yes, a jetpack! I knew a guy who had one. He mentioned something about PDA, a pair of tights, some sort of tube, lots of metals, a few codes to process all that stuff...man, it was complicated...oh, and some of that stuff he even had to weld together. Quality stuff man.

Hints for Trouble in the Galleria

• Brass is too soft to take on steel. Finding like will help you defeat like.
• Some of the folks in the Galleria Mall are more chatty--or more helpful--than others.
• The Cannonball tavern is full of trouble, but you get things done by being where the action is.
• Something hidden once can be hidden a second time, if need be. The friendly folks at the Galleria won't mind helping twice.
• That Steele guy sure goes by a lot of names. I wonder which one is most likely to indicate you know him personally?

Hints for Go Fish

• The depths of Porcelain Bay are large and murky. It may take time to find what you seek.
• The Troutmaster is susceptible to anything that would harm a fish.
• Weigh your choices carefully. If you choose wealth over strategic advantage, expect a tougher fight.

Notes

• Hints are given by the hint givers.
