stilcho410: I see in the "Settings" menu that one can set the frequency of hints to "often" or whatever, but in what form do the hints take? Is there some keyboard shortcut to get a hint?

I started this game after the "Back to the Future" series, which had a clickable hint interface, but I see nothing like that here.

Micro-BIOS: They're part of the story. The characters around you give you hints of what is needed to do.
