Machinarium: General advice

The plot and purpose of the game. In this game you will find yourself in the city of robots - Machinarium. You will play for the robot Josef, on whose metal head a lot of trouble has fallen. First, he is mistakenly sent to a landfill and separated from his beloved girlfriend. When Josef manages to return, he learns that the power in the city has actually passed into the hands of a criminal gang. Moreover, his girlfriend was kidnapped and held hostage.

Control Josef to solve the tasks that appear on his way and collect the necessary items for inventory. During the game, you will need to help the inhabitants of the Machinarium, solve puzzles and play mini-games. Your main goal is to thwart the evil plans of the criminals and save Josef’s girlfriend.

Inventory management. To take an item into your inventory, you need to bring Josef close to him and click on the item itself. To use an item from the inventory, you need to click on it in the top drawer of the inventory and bring it to Josef. Be careful: Josef can only interact with objects that are within his reach at all times.

Controlling the hero’s body. Josef can change his height. Thus, he can reach for objects that are high, or conversely shrink to crawl into narrow and cramped places. To control the body of the robot, move the cursor over it. Pull to make Josef tall, or squeeze to make him small.

Hints. Use the hint if you have difficulty in the game. To do this, click the button with a light bulb in the upper right corner of the screen. So you will see a thought cloud with Josef, where the desired solution will be shown.
