KGB - THE FULL SOLUTION BY DANIEL PLATT ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is the complete solution to KGB released by Virgin Interactive Entertainment, as sent in to Amiga Format by myself. There is probably very little difference between this and the solution which Amiga Format printed (in issues AF90, AF91 and AF92). The reason there may be some changes is that not long after I sent the solution in, I had a bit of a problem with my hard drive and lost the original solution along with some other stuff. I've compared this with the one printed and it is almost the same. Just before you start reading the solution, there are a few things you need to know. Firstly, when you are talking to someone in the game and the solution says for example 3rd, 2nd 1st, then that means you should select the 3rd reply then the second and finally the first. If you don't quite understand what I've just said (and I'm not sure I do ;) then don't woory about it, it will become clear when you are playing the game. Secondly, there is a section in Chapter 4 where you have to go through the right door. The best thing to do is to save the game before you go through a door, and then if it is the wrong door just load the saved game and try again. Finally, if you want to try and make any sense of the plot and what happens, then have a pen and paper ready and make a note of every major thing you find out, as it will help you to understand what has happened at the end of the game. Right, enough of me rambling on, on with the solution..... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHAPTER 1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Exit room, enter upper left room (Vovlov's office), exit room, go to exit (lower right door), select Golitsin's office, say your name to militiaman, show him your ID, enter building, inspect desk, get matchbox & matches, inspect phone, get bug, inspect drawer (locked), inspect radio, get batteries, exit room, ask militiaman for the key to the drawer, enter room again, use key on drawer, get newspaper cutting and recorder, wait (Golitsin's sister will come), question her: ask some questions than tell her she may go - Irina will give you a tape, use batteries on recorder, use tape on recorder, inspect window, exit room, give small key to militiaman, go to department P, follow Vovlov to his office, tell him you obeyed his orders and interviewed Golitsin's sister, give him the casette, tell him you listened to the tape, answer 'Hollywood'.

About the author of the solution In case you haven't already found out, my name is Daniel Platt and at the time of writing (21st March 1997), I'm a 17 year old student doing my A-Levels in Liverpool, England. My preferred music artists are :- R.E.M., Beck, Ash, The Prodigy and some Oasis songs. I worked on completing the game between February to April 1995 (I lost interest after this for a while) and March 1996 to about August 1996. My current Amiga setup is : unexpanded A1200 with a 85MB hard drive Hopefully, if I manage to get to WOA in May in London, my setup after WOA will be A1200 with '030 accelerator, 8 or 16MB fast RAM (I haven't decided which yet) and a bloody big hard drive. For those wondering, it has been uploaded from a cybercafe (Internet cafe, whatever you want to call them). If, for some reason, you feel extremely grateful to me then an e-mail would be nice just to let me know that my effort has been appreciated. If you feel grateful to the extent that you want to send me something useful :) (cash, R.E.M. singles, any spare 1Gb hard drives or A4000's lying around), then e-mail me at daplatt@hotmail.com. I'm currently up to my eyeballs in studies etc. but I will try and reply to any mails you send. I hope you found this solution useful and that it may just stop you from going involuntarily bald.
