There are 6 circuits.
What do they all have in common?
Divide the number on each circuit by 4.
The answer will be the code to enter into the door lock.
(NOTE: The code is different each time you play the game, so
the actual answer
can not be given here. It is also possible that in your game
the numbers may
all be divisible by a number other than 4).
You now have more of Catherine's journal to read.
You can also now read the remainder of the first part of her journal. It has

HOW DO I GET WEAPON ONE?
HOW DO I WIN THE CHESS GAME?
This game has special rules.
You'll need to figure them out. It may take a while. It may
take quite a while...
Here are some hints:
Your two knights (2 in gold) are unusable until all of your
pawns (cute little guys) are gone.
It is virtually impossible to win without using your knights.
Do the best you can with your pawns, but basically - get rid
of them.
When pawns attack or reach the opposite side of the board they
become fat men.
They still behave as pawns, except they now can attack
computer's knights.
Having them on the board, however, still makes your knights
useless.
Pawns move: 1 square in any direction. Pawns can not attack
computer's knights.
But they can attack computer's pawns and dragons.
Knights move: 1 or 2 squares in any direction, including
diagonally.
Kings move: 1 square but not diagonally. Can not go past
grated row.
The computer's pieces do not follow the same rules that yours
do.
The computer's knights are active from the beginning of the
game.
The computer's strategy seems to be to go directly for your
king. Watch out!
When the computer's knights transform to big mean-looking
guys, they can
bump each other off of a square in order to occupy it.
In short (ha): Try to keep both of your knights and get rid of
all your pawns
so that your knights are useable.
Use your knights to get the computer's king.
Watch out for your king.
For your first move, move your king one square
left.
This essentially forces the computer to move
first.
(NOTE: This is only a summary of the chess game that will
enable you to win it.
If you are interested in a complete set of rules, contact Take
2 Software).
COMBAT: WEAPON TWO
The blue eye is the target to hit.
Don't forget to use your shield when it gets too close.
COMBAT: WEAPON THREE

WHAT IS BERMAN WELL PASSWORD?

WHAT DO I DO WITH THE BAR CODES IN THE BERMAN WELL?

You have only three chances.
Divide the board into four quarters: top right, bottom right,
top left, bottom left. Each quarter will have a different
movement pattern.
Locate where the three matching numbers are and how they move
within their quarters.
(NOTE - exact solution varies from game to game).
Go back to Kane's well and ask about the anti-viral software.
Go to the anti-viral well.
Cross over to the rotating creature to receive the anti-viral
software.
WHAT IS PASSWORD FOR ANTI-VIRAL WELL?

password: exterminator
HOW DO I GET ACROSS THE SQUARES IN THE ANTI-VIRAL WELL?
You can move only to any adjacent red or green square, but not
diagonally.
You must cross over to the square in front of the rotating
creature.
Move fairly quickly - squares gradually become replaced by
skulls.
You may have to backtrack at some point.
Try going to the left first.
