I am stuck after the clock door puzzle as I cannot get back to the moon picture room. I have been up and down ladders and round and round but cannot find any oval mechanism or cabinet.

Any help pleeese

girly,

Please verify that the clock room you mentioned is in the arrival building.

If so, the moon picture room is just outside of that room also at arrival building.
If you want to go to the moon room, you have to exit the arrival building, go down the rail path and enter the first opening at right.
Take the left path and enter the door at end.



E is clock room.
D is Moon picture room
F is moon room

I mean after I've been down the clock/hatch and done the symbol colour puzzle in the cabinet. I have to get back to the Moon Picture Room by going over the crossway and follow tunnel to right but I get confused with the revolving door and end up walking up and down ladders and getting nowhere. I can get down the ladder facing the chest and go down ladder at far end but tunnel doesn't lead me to Moon Room, I'm totally lost

You need to pound me on the head here. I can't pinpoint where you are.

Is this the color puzzle in the cabinet you mention?

Yes I've done that puzzle now it's getting back where I'm lost. Section from walkthrough below:




The Mission Room
Back up to the clock door and, across the crossways and follow the tunnel round to the right to the Revolving Door. Go through, turn round and press the button. Climb the ladder, rotate and down the ladder on the north side to face the chest. Rotate the door again and climb down the ladder at the far end. You will be able to follow the tunnel this time to the Moon Picture Room. If you closed the door before you left the last time you can get into the room on the west side. On the left is a button that opens something. Note the oval mechanism. Turn right. Open the cabinet and note the numbers painted backwards. If you can see them it's because you didn't close the cabinet in the Hydro Electric Station. Turn right and note the pattern of bars on the control panel. Do the sum and program the numbers into the control panel: 4,8,4.
When the door opens, go inside, close the switch on the right and listen to the next message from Kales. Turn left and press the button to collect the second piece of the 7 pointed star.

Ah - you're following Graham's walkthrough.

See if this helps. This is after you just finished that color puzzle.

From other walkthrough:
Exit through the door and out the manhole.
Now we can reach the moon room through another path other than the roll up door.
Go to the upper level rotating passage. Turn the opening to the left and climb down to the chest area. Press the button to make a passage to the other side. Go forward and down the ladder. Go forward to the end and see that the metal door is now open. Go forward until the end and up the ladder to the moon room.

If you have further question - please post.

BTW - this is based on your having done this part when you where in the moon room earlier -
Exit through the roll up door. Be sure to - turn around and pull the lever to close this door. This way, the other door is rolled up-open. Exit the cavern and go to the rail track outside.

After the above is when you opened the manhole and went down to do the colored puzzle above.

Thanks. How do I get to the upper level rotating passage. I've been going up the steps but at the top there is a ladder going down. Please guide me to the rotating passage upper level.

Let's say that you are now at the rail track by the manhole.
You enter that opening across the rail track.
Go right, climb up and right to face the rotating passage. (if closed - turn to make a passage to other side).
Go across to the other side. Press that button to turn that rotating passage to that other side and turn it again to get the ladder.
Climb up to the top of the rotating passage.

Now that you're at top of the rotating passage - turn that floor (top of rotating passage) so you access the ladder at left hole.

Climb down and be at chest area and the passage to the moon room.

Sorry for being a pain but still lost.

I am facing the chest, turn round go to ladder at end and down, follow passage and come to a room which is behind bars (is there where I'm supposed to be) so keep following passage and end up at a ladder going up which takes me to supposedly the moon room but no way out only to outside and that's supposed to be shut. There is a roller door in there which is closed and won't open.

I'm fed up (probably you too)

No - no problem. I'm just glad I got you pinpointed in the game.

I think that some of the rooms that should be opened in my wt is not opened in the other wt.

It might be best if you go back to a saved game prior to going down or read this part of the other wt and see if you have done some of the actions.

In this walkthrough - read the part that starts at To gain access to other rooms:
There are preparations to open doors so that you can go through places.

Keep me posted.

Hi Thanks for being patient.

I had a look at the walkthrough you suggested.

I've gone back to where I put the 2 blue segments into the panel in the moon picture room. Gone down ladder and unlatched door to see the colour dots.
Back up the tunnel and leave moon picture room and close door. Go back to the hatch with the clock face, go down and follow walkthrough. Come back up and this is where I get stuck.

I go into tunnel across the tracks. Turn right and then green floor goes left so follow this and it leads to building near the blue stairs. Turn right to enter building turn right to rotating door which has oval button and square button. Go through turn round press button 3 times until ladder appears, go up and in room with the 4 hatches in floor and red button wall. I cannot get the hatch on the right to open no matter how many times I press button. I don't think I am in right place but don't know. I have replayed this over and over but don't like to give in.

The wt states: Turn the opening to the left and climb down to the chest area.

Does the hatch on the left open?

You are in the right place that is the top of the rotating passage and the way to the chest area.

I cannot get the left hatch to open. I press button on wall and check to see if hatch is open but it doesn't.

This left opening should be opened already if you did a lot of things earlier in the game.
Have you seen the chest already? Or the lava pit?
Have you taken the first fragment already?

If so on any of the above - that ladder was used by you already.

I've been to chest and lava pit, got 2 blue segments and fitted them into Moon Picture Room.

When I climb up from hatch after doing colour symbol puzzle and go back into cave, turn right, follow path to building, turn right come to revolving doorway with oval and square buttons. Go through without revolving the door, turn round press red button to get ladder, go up ladder into room with hatches and red button on wall. The hatch I come up is the east hatch but the north (left) side is shut. I press button on wall and can hear something opening or closing but don't know what but I keep checking left hatch and it's still shut.

Just to clarify, when you say north is this by the compass when you are facing the floor of the rotating passage?

When I say left, is your left while facing the rotating passage.

Yes, when I come up the ladder and go stand outside the room so I can see the hatches the one I've come up is east (according to the compass arrow at bottom of screen) or top - and the one at the left is north according to the compass

After you climb up here - try pressing the red square button three times and see if you can go down the ladder.


I can't recall anything that affects this ladder at all.

One other thought - there is a cabinet on the wall at your right when you are facing the ladder going up to top level of the rotating passage. That cabinet has a lever - see what state that lever or that cabinet is at this point in your game.

When I'm up here there is no red square button, the only button is the one on the yellowy wall where the hatches are.

The lever in the cabinet at the bottom of ladder is up and won't move

The only red square button is at the bottom of the ladder before I go through to rotate it, then when I turn round there is one red button which I press to get ladder.

Press that one 3 times to see if you can turn the floor 3 times when you first climb up there - that is before touching that button. Keep us posted.

This is driving me crazy, I'm walking up and down passages and ladders in my sleep.
Thanks for sticking with me.

I have to press square red button before I go through door.

Press once I get ladder but can't get out at top.
Press twice door revolves so I can get through
Press 3 times door closes

Then I tried pressing oval button to get through passage and turning round and pressing again to get ladder but the outcome is still the same. I get to top and the other hatch stays closed even when pressing red button wall. What does this operate as I can hear something opening or closing. If I come out of room with hatches I am on a balcony looking down to outside and slightly further along there is a grilled door with a button which if I press the door goes down and comes back up if I press button again.

Girly Rhem can be very confusing and it is so easy to get turned around. Try reading the walkthru carefully. If you read from a point earlier then where you are stuck you might be able to go back and continue forward from there.
You could easily have pressed a button or closed a door that should not have been touched.
I hope this helps. I wish you luck. Don't give up. Rhem 2 is a great game.

Thanks. I've been back to go over things more than once and read walkthrough and I still get same conclusion. Maybe I should start over from beginning but am reluctant to do so - yet.

When you get to the top of the revolving passage, that is when you see if the hatch opens after you press the button at door frame 3 times. It should turn the floor 3 times.

I hope you are not confusing this button to the button at end of the passage that raises and drops the door of the room below

When I get to top of revolving passage the hatch isn't open, only the one I go up.

When I first get into building at bottom I come to revolving door which has oval button and red square button.
I press red square button once and get ladder which I can't get out at top
I press again to revolve door to make a way through
If I press it again door closes.

According to walkthrough I have to go through revolving door, turn round and press red button (on this side there is only oval button) to go up.

I'm not confusing it with the button which raises and lowers door at end of passage.

The floor at top with hatches has yellow walls and has a red button also on the wall.
