Jet-Blue

solution

At 04:35 hours today Tuesday 4th March, Mission control lost radio contact with Jet-Blue. Shortly thereafter at 04:36, the computer link between Jet-Blue and mission control failed. At 4:40 Long range radar scans showed the space craft enter Yaanek's atmosphere in an uncontrolled descent. No further contact has been made with Jet-Blue's crew, and early assessment indicates that the spacecraft may have broken up in an uncontrolled re-entry.

And everything changes...

[airlock corridor]

(If you're in a rush, just go directly south to Central Park, then all the way west to robot quarters instead of exploring the ship.)

Dr. Tippit seems upset. He won't let you into his quarters.

You can't enter Dian's quarters either.

There's nothing important to do in the kitchen, but you might be amused by it.

You can't use the bathroom either, but after reading the instructions, would you really want to?

>x chambers. x people. x panel. s.

[Centre of cryo hold]

The chambers here are just like the chambers in the north end. And there's more chambers that are just the same in the west and east ends of the hold. The shoe is the only unusual object in the hold.

You can't get past the laser. Yet.

Note: The command "examine computer" won't work. The term "unit" only refers to the wall unit but not the air conditioning unit.

Your motivation here seems to be wanting to turn off the lasers blocking passage south from the cryo hold.

You have a choice. If you let Dian stay, the game will end when you push the button. You and Dian will both die, of course, if you let her stay.

>dian, go.

>yes.

DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE DEJA VU. THE GAME HAS NOT RESTARTED.

It's a nice puzzle in theory, but the code is as weak as codes get. But to elaborate, if the code is "IT" but "I" is 9 and "T" is 20, then the real lock code is 920.

>set lock to 920. s.

[twelve]

Exploring the twelve numbered rooms reveals that they're all mostly empty, but all have the same red and blue buttons. The major exception is room "six".

>x red button. x blue button.

>se. se. se. sw. sw. sw.

[six]

Pushing a red button in any room disables all the other red button, and likewise with the blue buttons. Pushing the green button resets them all, as it says, so you can try again if you make a mistake.

>x green button. x inscription. x door.

The "other face" is your watch. H means Hours. M means Minutes. Get it?

Note the secret prize command. Restore the game to the first save position, go to the appropriate location and use it. Try not to take the prize information revealed too seriously.
