text: > look around
  Considering how important this place is for the future of all fishkind, you are stunned by how little has been done to make it look significant. A lick of paint, although distasteful for the fish licking it on, wouldn't have gone amiss. The only exit is southwest.
  There is some twisted metal, a stream accelerator, a hyperdriver, a travel pass, a new card and a tatty card and the device almost fills the room, looking like an aquarium filled with multi-coloured gravel here.

  > break the glass box with the Hyperdriver
  You hack the box to bits and break the hyperdriver in the process. The focus wheel falls to the floor.
  
  > join the focus wheel to the twisted metal
  This doesn't feel right to me. I thought we were involved in hi-tech science not surrealist sculpture! Still you're the boss. Stunning. A tingle of pure ecstasy runs down your spine, across the room and out of the window as you realise that you hold in your hands that most treasured of possessions - a food blender. Wow!

  The blender is the biggest you have seen in you're whole life. Well done. Now you've got it you might as well mix something until the world blows up. Which it undoubtedly will.

  Project notes
  For Project Members Eyes only:
  From - A. Roach
  Store notes: The Stream Regulator has been stolen. This is serious. The Project will fail if we don't replace it. At present, we haven't located any replacement components. Anyone who can find them will be a hero. Here's a list of what's needed:
  Filter.
  Photon bridge - Dr. Salmon worked on this, he may know its whereabouts. Focus wheel - stolen days ago.
  Tuned Crystal - There's an untuned one in the museum but they won't let us near it.
  We also need a case to keep everything stable.

  Store Room
  Even though Dr. Roach is very clean and tidy, the same cannot be said of the rest of the team. They've made this the messiest store room in the university. And it's always left for you to straighten things out. All the equipment and spares needed for The Project are usually stashed here, with a wallchart keeping track of what's in and out of stock. The only exit leads northwest.
  There is a protocopier here.
  
  > join the Filter to focus the wheel
  Well done! The focus wheel connects to the filter making a focus filter.
  
  > join the photon bridge to tuned Crystal
  Brilliant! The photon bridge and the tuned crystal seem to meld before your eyes leaving you with a crystal bridge.
  
  > join focus filter to the crystal bridge
  Ah, such dexterity. You have made the only crystal filter in fish world.
  
  > look at the crystal filter
  The crystal filter gathers energy from various sources which it filters and refines.
  
  > join the crystal filter to the case
  Congratulations! The two items fuse to form a stream regulator!
  
  > turn on Device
  Hey, I really dig you device.
  
  > examine Device
  Dr. Roach certainly knows how to build impressive machines - this one nearly fills the project room. It looks a bit like a huge aquarium, filled to the brim with multi-coloured gravel and, if you and Sir Playfair have anything to do with it, it's going to save Hydropolis from water evaporation. It almost fills the room, looking like an aquarium filled with multi-coloured gravel.
  It contains a stream regulator.

  It seems you have done all you need to do to save Hydropolis so you rest on your laurels for a while, then your laurels start to ache so you start filing your credentials when suddenly... Nothing happened. It's four o'clock, the Project has been activated and nothing happened. You did it! You saved Hydropolis! It's time for celebration, time to party! But professionals don't party; they leave that to the Dr. Roaches of this dimension. You return to Mission HQ, to a hero's de-briefing from Sir Playfair Panchax. "Absolutely splendid job, Agent 10," he chuffs, "a marvellous piece of work. One of your finest missions. As a reward, we at the Department, are allowing you three month's vacation with a goldfish of your choice." He winks. "And we guarantee no interruptions this time." You are warped off to a spacious, warm aquarium with all the pondweed, ant eggs and gravel you could want. And of course, the most beautiful creature in all the dimensions to spend time with. After three months of this kind of pleasure, you might not be up to another mission...
  
  Your score is 491 out of 501.
