Introduction
============
This is the complete walkthru of the game noctropolis. I played this game many years ago,
and I enjoyed it a lot (esp. Stiletto). I haven't played the game for a long time and I
probably won't in the future either. How do I write this walkthru then, well it's mostly
based on the walkthru of Wout Delen (PcGameplay), who wrote a dutch walkthru for the game.
I just translated most parts and made some additions here and there to clarify some things.
If you have to say something, I'll give you a number. Pick the sentence wich matches the
number.
I urge you not to mail me with any questions you might have, since I probably can't solve
them anymore myself and I'm not going to replay the whole game.

desk (don't forget the papers in the corner (down/right). Take the magazine from the little

will ring. Open the front door and say this:
