In a small room adjacent to the one with the machine, pieces of coal can be found scattered all over the floor. Once all three has been obtained, you just need to attach each wheel to the empty spuds on the machine, and they will fit in automatically. The final one is in the machinery room, at the entry door's left. The second one is right in front of the door of the same room. The first wheel is found in the room where you insert the rods, on a small table in the corner. Luckily, these can be found stowed away in different places in the Machine Room. Three cogwheels are missing from the machinery. The Flow Cycle Rod found in the Study fits into the circle hole, the Trinity Stream Rod found in the Storage fits in the triangle hole and finally, the Four-phase Amplitude Rod found in the Storage fits into the square hole. After having gathered all three rods from the Study and Storage, the machinery can be powered from here using them. The console has three holes and 'Tractatio Fluxus' written above. The solution to this puzzle is hinted in the note 'Elevator Machine Instructions'. A correct configuration to accomplish this is (from left to right): Down, down, up, up, up, down. The trick of stabilizing the steam pressure is to arrange the levers in an order that add up to 8 at the top and 8 at the bottom. You should find yourself facing a console with six levers with roman numerals above and below them.

These operations can be done in any order.

To activate the machinery you have to stabilize the steam pressure, insert the rods in the right holes, fill theīurner with coal and put the cogs on their place.

Activating the machinery AMFP critiques in turn an uncaring upper class that uses the poor like cogs in a wheel, as well as the lower class that files unthinkingly into factories.This section is needed but has not been written yet. The metaphor is rather hammered home, visually and textually. The overarching theme of A Machine for Pigs is about how industrialized society treats humans workers no better than pigs. Mandus realizes what a horrible mistake he has made and sacrifices himself to destroy the machine. Later in the game, these pigmen are released and throw London into chaos as they murder people and feed their bodies to the machine. The machine has already been at work creating monstrous human/pig hybrids. The purpose of the machine is to industrialize human sacrifice, in order to bring about a new mechanized god and save humanity from itself. Of course, not all is as it seems and Mandus discovers terrible truths about his past actions-he built the machine after an ill-fated trip to Mexico where he saw a horrible vision of the tragedies of the 21st century-as well as the terrible effects of colonialism on the Mexican people. The children are trapped in “the Machine,” which Mandus needs to restart. It is revealed the Mandus is a wealthy butcher whose giant factory has been sabotaged. As he explores his massive house, following the ghostly voices of his sons Edwin and Enoch, he begins to receive phone calls from someone who tells him that he must rescue the boys from a machine that Mandus built.Īs he explores the house and the grounds, Mandus finds his own old journal entries, as well as phonograph recordings and diaries from his children. A man named Oswald Mandus wakes up with no memory of who he is and what has happened. A Machine for Pigs takes place in London in 1899.
