The Gamescreen

Well, the upper part of the screen is the actual gamescreen, here you see all the action happening, just like in a movie, you see what Joe is doing, or what else is happening. In the lower quarter of the screen there are the buttons you can use to influence what's happening in the game.

On the left there are the actionbuttons and on the right is your inventory.



The actionbuttons are as follows:

• Open
• Close
• Move
• Give
• Look at
• Take
• Talk to
• Use
  
  after this there is your
• Inventory
  Once you collected more than 4 items you have to scroll through your inventory by using the arrow buttons.

You have to use your mouse to click on a action button to build little sentences that Joe will perform then. For example, you can tell Joe to pull the curtain in the back of the hotelroom open. And this is how you make it work:

    Click on the "Move" action button. Then click on the Curtain cord.

   Joe pulls the cord and the curtains open.

You can also build sentence with the items in your inventory, e.g.:

   Use sheet-rope on radiator.

Then Joe will think of a way he can use these two things together.
