CHAPTER 8: THE YOUKOL VILLAGE REVISITED
===========================================================
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE HIDDEN YOUKOL VILLAGE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SPIRIT WOMAN’S HUT
After sharing Han’s dreams, you wake up
back in the Spirit Woman’s hut, with Hans still dangling from the ceiling. Talk to her if you like, but she’s not very
helpful. Walk down, towards the door of
the hut.
Open the door and leave the hut. Watch the cut scene with Marson.
FROZEN YOUKOL VILLAGE
The Youkol village is still rather
confusing to navigate, so I’ll try to make things as easy as possible.
Outside the Spirit Woman’s hut, open
your Inventory, and use your mobile phone to call Oscar, who’s still on the
train. Oscar seems rather concerned
about ‘little furry creatures’ who might attack the train. You should head back there, to see what’s
going on. Walk straight down to the next
screen.
Walk left 2 screens.
Cross over the bone bridge, and take the
upper left path to the next screen.
You can see the rail tracks above
you. However, your train is not there,
because it still back at the outskirts of the village. Cross over the bridge under the rail
tracks.
Head down, and follow the path along,
until you see a ladder made from mammoth bones.
Climb up the bone ladder.
The rail tracks are running parallel to
you. Climb up the stairs, so you are
above the rail tracks.
Head right a few steps, and climb down
the other end of the stairs.
Go down to the next screen.
Follow the path up to the next
screen.
You’re next to the rail tracks
again. And you can see a chain lying on
the rail tracks. Continue down to the
next screen.
There are 2 Youkols here, in warm coats
- could these be the ‘little furry creatures’ that Oscar mentioned when
you called him? Talk to the Youkols and
work through the dialogue with them.
They seem to be scared of something.
Are they talking your train (took toot)?
And Oscar (nanook metaal)? You
can see your train in the distance, so when you’ve finished talking to the
Youkols, head up to the train.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WILDERNESS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WILDERNESS
The giant owl totem is still here,
marking the boundaries of the village.
Head down & left, towards the train.
There’s a large hook on a chain, lying
on the tracks in front of the train.
Try to lift it, but it’s too heavy for
you. You need some help. Unfortunately, the Youkols are afraid of
metal man Oscar, so they won’t help. You
need to convince them that Oscar is not dangerous. Head left to the next screen.
Climb into Oscar’s engine room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TRAIN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ENGINE ROOM
Talk to Oscar and work through all the
dialogue with him. Through dialogue, you
give him the YOUKAL MASK you got from the Spirit Woman’s hut, and you
convince him to wear it. Watch the short
cut scene.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WILDERNESS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WILDERNESS
Head up & right, and then follow the
rail tracks along, until you see the 2 Youkols again.
Talk to the Youkols and work through the
dialogue with them. They see Oscar in
the Youkol mask, and decide that he’s not a threat after all. So they agree to help you. Watch the cut scene, as they attach the hook
& chain to your train. However, even
though the chain is now attached, it is still loose - you need to tighten
it. Head up, and then left, so you can
see the front of your train.
Click on the front of your train to get
a close-up. Click on the winch to
tighten the train. Watch the cut scene,
to see the effects of the chain being tightened. Head down & right, and continue along,
until you see some wooden stairs going over the rail tracks in the Youkol
village.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE HIDDEN YOUKOL VILLAGE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE FROZEN VILLAGE
Climb up the stairs. The bridge is like a T-junction. Walk left a few steps, so you are halfway
over the bridge.
Follow the bridge down & right, to
the next screen.
Click on the levers under the horizontal
beam to see a close-up. The levers are
hard to spot, but they’re there.
Pull the lever on the right. Watch the cut scene, as your train is pulled
into the Youkol village.
Now you need to talk to Oscar again, to
find out what Hans meant by ‘open your heart’. Go down & left, back to the previous
screen.
Follow the bridge right, to the next screen.
Climb right down the stairs. If you look carefully in the upper right
area, you’ll see a bone ladder leading down.
Climb down the bone ladder.
Follow the path down & left.
The Youki enclosure is here. Head right to the next screen.
Go up to the next screen.
You can see the rail tracks above you,
as well as the stairs leading up to it.
You can also see your train now.
Climb up the stairs.
Climb up into the engine room of the
train.

THE TRAIN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ENGINE ROOM
It’s time to get to the bottom of Hans’s
cryptic message. Talk to Oscar, using
the following dialogue option.
- Heart
Oscar starts acting strangely. Watch the cut scene, as he leaves his beloved
train. It’s heartbreaking when he refers
to himself as ‘only an automaton’.
You automatically climb out of the engine room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE HIDDEN YOUKOL VILLAGE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE FROZEN VILLAGE
What is Oscar talking about? Climb back down the stairs.
You get a phone call from your old boss
Mr Marson. After you hang up on him,
head right to the next screen.
Cross over the small bridge on the
right, and continue right to the next screen.
Once again, go right to the next
screen.
You should see the long drumsticks that
are in front of the Spirit Woman’s hut.
Head up towards the long drumsticks.
Head up again, into the Spirit Woman’s
hut.
SPIRIT WOMAN’S HUT
Walk down to the other side of the
hut.
You’re met with a strange scene - Oscar
lying on the bed, with Hans hanging above him.
Now get ready for some very emotional scenes. I’m not ashamed to admit that I shed a tear
or two!
Click on Oscar in the bed, to see a
close-up of his heart.
The heart is set out like a clock, with
12 buttons in it. Number the buttons
from 1 to 12, with 12 being at the top, like a clock. If you remember the time that Hans’s father leaves
for the factory - 7.15 - then click on buttons 7 & 3, to open the
heart.
A kind of cross appears in the
centre. Click on buttons 12, 6, 3, and
9.
Take the VORALBERG KEY from
Oscar’s heart, then watch the incredibly emotional cut scene as Oscar
sacrifices himself for Hans. R.I.P.
Oscar. You will be missed! *SOB*
Hans still needs some time to rest &
recuperate, but while he’s doing that, you can get the train prepared for the
next part of your journey. When you’re
ready, walk down to the other end of the hut.
Open the door and leave the hut.
THE FROZEN VILLAGE
Walk down to the next screen.
Head left, and continue left, until you
reach the rail tracks with the train.
Climb up the stairs, to the rail
tracks.
Climb into the engine room of the
train.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TRAIN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ENGINE ROOM
It’s strange to be in the engine room
without Oscar. Look at the Control Panel
in the middle of the back wall, to see a close-up.
Now, there are several things you have
to do here, in order to get the train ready.
However, you can’t do anything without a key. So insert the VORALBERG KEY from
Oscar’s heart, into it’s slot at the top of the Control Panel, between the 2
gauges.
Look at the Control Panel. The various levers and switches control the
various functions of the train.
1. Operates
an extendable grabber snake
2. Up =
grabber snake extends from top
Down
= grabber snake extends from bottom
3. Turns
water into steam
4. Sucks up
liquids from below it
5. Collects
whatever is in front of it
6. Heats up
the boiler.
7. Releases
a jet of steam
Okay, first thing’s first. You need some coal for your engine. Pull Lever 2 ‘Up’. Pull Lever 1 ‘Up’. Flip Switch 5 up. Your coal gauge (top right) is now showing as
‘Full’.
You need some water. Pull Lever 2 ‘Down’. Pull Lever 1 ‘Down’. Flip Switch 4. The grabber snake gobbles up some water, and
your gauge (top left) is now showing as ‘Full’.
You need to melt the huge ice wall in
front of you, so that you can continue your journey. The best way to do that, is by using
steam. Turn Wheel 6. Turn Wheel 3.
Flip Switch 7. Watch the cut
scene, as a boiling hot jet of steam is released, melting the ice wall in front
of you.
Now leave the train via the exit on the
right.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE HIDDEN YOUKOL VILLAGE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE FROZEN VILLAGE
The train is all ready to leave. You just need to collect Hans now. You also need to let Youki out of the
enclosure. Climb down the stairs on the
right.
Go right, to the next screen.
Cross over the small bridge, and take
the top right path up to the next screen.
Walk up again, to the Chief Youkol who
is guarding the huge gate. It was
completely iced over before, but you managed to melt the ice.
Talk to the Chief Youkol and work
through all the dialogue with him. You
realise that, since Syberia is surrounded by water, you can’t continue your
journey by train. Chief Youkol agrees
that you can take the Ark. Head down
& left, to the next screen.
Go down & left, to the next
screen.
Cross left, over the bridge. Take the upper left path, back to the rail
tracks with the train. Remember, you
need to let Youki out of the enclosure.
Follow the path left & down to the next screen.
Head straight down, to the Youki enclosure.
At the Youki enclosure, click on the
gate at the front of the enclosure to see a close-up.
Click on the right edge of the gate to
open it. Youki excitedly bounds out the
enclosure, and far away. Exit the
close-up.
Go right, to the next screen.
Head up, back to the rail tracks. Go right to the next screen.
Cross right, over the small bone bridge. Continue right, and keep going right, until
you can see the long drumsticks belonging to the Spirit Woman in the distance.
Head up 2 times, so you are in the
Spirit Woman’s hut.
SPIRIT WOMAN’S HUT
Walk down to the other side of the
hut.
Hans has already left. Click on the Spirit Woman to say ‘Goodbye’
to her. Go back down to the other
side of the hut.
Open the door and leave the hut.
THE FROZEN VILLAGE
Go down to the next screen.
Head left, and continue left until
you’re back at the Chief Youkol standing in front of the gate.
You can see Youki standing on the bridge
leading to the Ark. Climb left, onto the
Ark (you won’t be able to do this, unless you have already said ‘Goodbye’ to
the Spirit Woman). Watch the cut scene
as you and Hans (*sob* poor Oscar!) continue your journey on the
Ark.
Continued In Chapter 9: Penguin Island…
