NOTES
There's one illogical point in this adventure: when you want to read the company 
memo informing you that the lift engineer will be housed in the basement, you 
have to pass the dog beforehand by throwing a bone at him - but to get the bone 
you first need to visit the lift engineer!

Before killing the dwarf it's recommended to save the adventure (RAM SAVE) since 
it can happen that he kills you.

The only object that has no use is the bicycle clips.
