Hot out of my inbox, so much so I've barely had time to open it, is news of Submachine 4: The Lab, from murtaugh, creator of the Submachine Series. Already I can see the sights and sounds are amazing, and I'm sure once we get into it, the point'n'click puzzles are going to be a killer once again. Now, excuse me, I need to go play, I suggest you join me, and in the meantime I'll leave you with murtaugh's game description:

Help! cant find the bloody gas handle any hints??

got wheel from <roof>
and put in <bathroom>
now what?

dang didn;t work, sorry..

got wheel from roof and put in bathroom

Argh! Does anyone else have this problem? Sometimes I'll pick something up from my inventory, then realise it's the wrong thing to use, but I'm then unable to put it back or do anything else except quit the game. : (

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)

I beat it, but I couldn't find the last secret. The walkthrough doesn't tell you where they are.

I've found 19 of the 21 secrets, but I can't for the life of me find the missing 2!

I followed the walkthrough, but got stuck at the point where you find the 4 rooms. I found 3, but couldn't find the 4th one. I couldn't for the life of me find the last pattern of switches...any help?

you mean the location with the 1, 0, -1 switch?

Where should the coordinates be used?

If you haven't got them

i used the hammer to bust a pipe in bathroom but can't do anything with it

Tek, there is a secret in the ancient location behind some crumbled stone. Use the hammer to get it. The last secret is in the rooms you reach after you completed the game.

Ah yes, one more secret in the four stone thingy after you pushed all the bells and lifted all the stones.

Anybody know if you can open the grates right next to the portal in the lab? You can finish the game without that but I wonder if it's possible.

after you've found all the secrets, there's a tube with a lock on it. I've tried all the items left in my inventory, but nothing happened. Is there anything there?

i only have 1 secret missing nd i'm curious about what appens if we found them all!! grrr

already found it

How do you get the rubber tube?

the last secret is at 728 and you use them there to...

got 22/21 secrets

You should spoiler that Xiq.

I got 13 of 14 pages & 19 secrets so far. So very very close. And I'm using no walkthrough or hints. This is my first time in this comments thread. This Sub is fairly easy compared to older Subs. But I enjoy it a lot. Excellent design...again. :o) And great ambiance/music!

Oh! And I love the fact that I can finally download all five Sub games! So friggin cool! :o)

nobody talking about this game why ?????

I completed the game and found all the secrets but does anyone know where im supposed to use them?

hey, so i put in the 728 code and went to the other room, now i cant get out, someone please help and tell me the code to get out
thanks

oh 728 nvm

i am only missing 1 secret...
where could it be?

yay! found it!


SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)

I only have 20 of the 21 secrets, I've completed the game other than that. I've got the three mentioned above, but am stuck on the last one. Anyone have a tip?

please help me, im stuck in the room and cant get out

yah I finished completely! If anyone needs to find any rooms heres all the codes.
