Hints
A few problems solved. Information obtained from various
sources.

After getting the items out of the safe in the hotel room, I try and
leave the room, but I get blown away by one of the security guys.
What am I doing wrong ? I found the video screen (?), but I can't
make it do anything except open and close. PLEASE HELP !!!!

Put the smoke grenade into the slot near the door. Then you have
a stupid dexterity puzzle to try to run around with your night
goggles on. Can't help anymore as the game was passed on due
to being so poor !!!

I blasted my way through the door, drove the car away. Now I
am near this machine with a camera on a swinging arm and
another one that looks like ATM. When I approach ATM, the
swinging arm approaches me and nothing happens. I do not
knwo what to do next. Any suggestions?

Well if you're still back at the beginning (when you click on the
door does it say "I'll need something to open the door" or
something to that effect?) you need to get back into the car and
travel to the other location on the map (bottem right corner if I'm
not mistaken).

Reflector Puzzle at the Fusion Link

Move the first reflector so that it reflects the beam to the next
blue line, and then bounces off THAT line to the next, and to the
NEXT: all four get "buzzed".

The other two thingees don't need to be involved in your virtual
pool shot, although I imagine that they could be if you wanted to
make it complicated...just move 'em down to the right in a neat
triangle shape!

Lockbreaker Puzzle

Use the #4 Red and then the #4 Green.

Walkthrough

NOTE: TRY AND BEAT THE GAME BEFORE READING THIS.

This is the easiest way to beat Burn:Cycle and get the best ending.

IN SOFTECH:

Get communicator that is just left of the monitor

Now, turn left or right

Shoot the guard

Use the AutoMap to make a route out

ON THE SOFTECH ROOF:

Move forward once

Once Kris is killed, inspect bomb

Set to the most appropriate time (leave it for first time players) and then hit arm

Attach bomb onto the center of the door

Go back once. Twice and a Softech guard shoots you

Once bomb has blown up move to Kris's dead body.

Open her jacket and get the Lifter key and Cutter's credit card out of her jacket

Go to Lifter

Use key to get in

Once inside go to left monitor

Set a course for Urban Central, aka The City

Go to middle monitor

Hit Power, System, and then VTO

IN THE AIR:

This is a shooting scene.

Always shoot a little infront of the missle because your lasers take some time to hit the missles.

CITY-GET SOMETHING TO WORK WITH:

After escaping the missles, and finishing the cinema scene you'll land on a Lifter pad

Your fusion part is fried, open the panel that is on the far right and hit OPEN. Get the fusion part

out of there

Now, go right infront of the Sum Zero Bar

Turn around and go towards a sign that has a neon eye

Go into the Karma Bank Center

Go to the booth that the cinema showed you

Once inside give the machine your card and then solve the pieces puzzle. Always keep your eye

on the top piece so you can have a key to check all the other pieces by.

Once that is done you'll see the words "VIELLI" repeat over and over. You'll have some credits

to work with. VIELLI is a clue.

CITY-FINDING ZIP:

Go into the Sum Zero Bar.

Turn around and go forwards once, then turn and go into the Pyschic Roulette Room

Go to the Pyschic Roulette machine. Insert credit card and play

You can wait for symbols to come up. Listen to the rules that the announcer gives you.

Once beating one game in Pyschic Roulette, the ASCII Televerse Kiosk appears. Get it's

Televerse coordinates.

Go to the bar and pick your prize. The one that is the second one from the left (The Nuero

Implant GOLD) is the one that you have to get.

Now, turn around and go forward once. Turn, right and you'll see Zip sleeping (actually

electronically rushing).

Go to the booth. Click on the button that is near the center.

At the TV logo insert your credit card.

Go to the Incoming Mail, the news just wastes time.

After going to the Incoming Mail, use the custom software

After contacting Zip, exit the TV.

Go forwards and talk to Zip

First, you'll want to bribe him. Get the decoder and patch

Then, talk to him again and give him the part. You'll find out that you need to get cash. The

Hotel has cash....but if you go there you're killed by a Softech agent...if only I could get that

money.

CITY-GALA & THE HOTEL:

Once you've done your transaction with Zip, you'll want to go back.

Once you've went back once or twice you'll see a breif cinema.

Once Gala slits the agent's throat, she runs towards you and throws you a gun.

Shot the two agents, simple.

After that there will be a breif cinema and Gala will give you a pager when you are ready to pay

her to help you.

Put on the patch. It gives you about 15 more minutes to operate with.

Go to the Hotel. When you see the man walking, stop (don't go forward again or you're dead).

Double click the pager and press the button.

Gala will come and knock out the guard. When you frisk him you find a pocket computer.

Now, insert the decoder. You'll want to search around and find the numbers that go in there.

But, incase you get frustrated and can't do it (I died the first few times because I couldn't find

them) the numbers are: 1965

Look at the video clues. Dealy is in this.....find the weak spot around back.

Go back there and enter the elevator

Once at the floor go around the hall.

Go in the door that is the last on the right.

You'll want to move over to the wall where the little mechanism is.

You'll need to defuse this.

Because the variations differ everytime you'll want to save your game first.

After defusing the bomb get the Nigerian Rand (moo-la), Purple Haze gas bomb, LockBreaker,

and the Visible Spectrum headset.

When you go back one Gala will give you the HoloBall, which will give you some more clues

about Cutter once you use the HoloScan at Doc's.

Now, you don't want to go out the door. If you do you'll get shot by a guard.

Instead click on the ventilation shaft that is on the right wall. Open it up and insert the Purple

Haze gas bomb. Walla. You now have your cover. If you don't have the Visible Spectrum

headset on you're dead.

Now, click on the bottom pointer and move it like the one on the top. Try to keep them touching.

You'll move along and get into the elevator.

Once in the elevator let go of the mouse and you're out of the Hotel.

After the cinema, go back to Zip and give him the money. You'll get yourself a new fusion part.

Go back to your ship and install it.

The Rad Haz piece pops up showing three little circular metal pieces.

You'll want to make the laser touch all of the pieces.

It is like a bent diagonal line. You'll want to tamper with it a little to make it perfect. If you get

Meltdown, just walk back and come on back. It's fine so don't worry.

Once you do that, Gala sticks you up. After taking getting her gun (this is cinema), Softech

agents start coming. After you and Gala are in the Lifter you'll have ANOTHER Lifter shooting

scene (last one)

Do the same as you did in the first scene. Aim infront and you're fine.

DOC'S PLACE:

Doc (hate to tell you) is playing you real bad! But, he will also help you and get you into the

Televerse

Once landed go to the door and put on the LockBreaker.

Hints for LockBreaker: Green 4- goes to Lock 5. All the others are just by making either a blue

or a red go into the correct Lock. Sometimes you'll have a Red 4, and then Blue 4. Try it. It's

probably the easiest puzzle. No other greens are used except for Green 4-Lock 5. Also, you can

use one piece for some. You don't have to make a tunnel (like in Pipe Dreams) but just have to

channel the energy to the right one.

Once inside, and after the cinema (which is kinda cheesy) you'll want to turn right and go to the

HoloScan.

Go to the thing that looks like a big metal tube first. Insert that green HoloBall.

Then, go back and go to the monitor.

Rotate the item until it becomes familiar.................

After you get the gun from Gala (this is her 5th gun!!!!!!) you'll get loaded into the Televerse.

Unfortuently, Doc's crappy software fragments you into 3 pieces. You'll need to get all 3 pieces

back.

IN THE TELEVERSE:

Once inside the Televerse go to Comport.

Then, go to Cortex-using the access code that the ASCII gave you.

Go back to Comport--meeting one of your pieces of code.

Then, go to Nirvana.

Enter the weird flying thing.

Search around until you find Dealy. Only access him, no others--it saves time. Then, go to the

Pulse.

Go back to Nirvana.

Now, turn left.

Go forward and meet Cyber Buddha.

The tree puzzle is simple. If you've already accessed Dealy it's almost complete.

Take all three pieces off the stem. But on the small and medium pieces.

Then, make the sound. Take Dealy's leaf. (if you get someone else (their sound) and take that

leaf you get an awesome death scene where the Cyber Buddha says "It's a Bitch".)

Go to the Pulse and go to Cortex.

Once there, you'll see Kris.

Pay attention to this scene so you can get one piece of code....a third eye....

Go to Cyber Buddha and put your cursor between his two eyes....a third eye....click and you

have Cyber Buddha's code.

Now, go to the Pulse and go to Comport.

You'll get another shooting scene (like the one in Softech...kinda....)

You need to shoot the balls that the hostile code is made from. Shoot it fast because you have

about 15 seconds before you've lost it. If you destroy it you get piece o' code 2.

Go back to Comport to find out your accounts cancelled.

Go to Cortex. You'll talk with Kris (and get ready for some hanky-panky) and you'll suck her

up (you'll find out...) and get the third piece of code.

Now, walk through the door of Cortex (you're a Construct, dufas!)

VIELLI & DEACTIVATING THE VIRUS:

Finally, you're in Cortex.

You'll find Vielli (the clue helped, huh?) and he'll tell you about Softech's new "immortality"

software. He then cooks up five anti-toxins to make the HARDEST puzzle of luck and some skill

in the game.

Be sure to clean your mouse before playing this. It's a maze. Hit the pockets of memory to get

some help. You won't need to access them all to regain your memories.

Get to the center and click.

The virus is deactivated...but there's still about 15 minutes of cinema scenes left!

Now, Vielli shows how you were betrayed by Doc. Then, you watch Gala kill Doc and then

Dealy blows off Gala's arm. Dealy (the best scene) then says (a small excerpt): Here's the deal

Cutter. For every minute you're in the Televerse with my software, I'm going to hack a limb of

that sack of shit you call a body. And don't worry when your dick's gonna go. By then, you

won't have a hand to stroke it."

Vielli (I'm not gonna give details because you need to see this for yourself) then has a plan.

Now, you're in Cortex: Real World.

Go over to the machine and go twice left and scan for Vielli's brain.

After getting it exit Cortex.

The cinema starts with your in the Hotel (you're instantly warped there).

Then, you have the scene with Dealy (and you shoot him and hit him in the heart).

Then, you have a quick shooting scene. Kill the two guards.

Now, a cinema plays.

Once it ends move up to the monitor and Vielli will greet you (on the monitor)

Watch the ending.

THE END
