Hints
Where are you stuck?
Every problem in the game has its own page, explained on its own: a nudge first, then a stronger one, and the answer only when you ask for it. Nothing on this page gives anything away.
I'm stuck at...
Pick the place you're in. Each place lists only its own problems, by neutral titles.

Other ways in
I found...
Something in your inventory and no idea what it's for? Look it up by the name the game gave it.
Who is this?
Everyone on the lot wants something first. A hint about what, for each of them.
How does the game work?
The rules, no puzzles: the three-item inventory, energy and lives, lifts, platforms, speech.
The Oscars ★
The endgame, behind its own warning. Only once you've found the film script.
