Are you encountered before the hero gets on the boat to Science Island?

OK. Are you encountered before you enter the laboratory (either one)?

OK ... so, after you get on the boat to Science Island, but before you enter either laboratory. So, you're on the island itself.
Are you the winching mechanism for picking up the boats?

Are you on a screen where the water is visible?

New Clue:
I am something that can be used.

Are you the thing (sorry, don't know what it is) - that the hero throws the rock at to make it pick up the boat?
(I assume Rath's question is the line thing? And not the "control panel" thing?)
If it's the same thing as Rath's question - no need for a new clue.
I've never played QFGV, or have ZERO memory (based on how bad it looks, I may have erased it from my mind). So I am taking stabs in the dark, based off Youtube videos.

Are you the 'control panel' thing that the hero uses to winch up the boat? 
(I've played lots of QfG5 and remember the scene vividly, but there are so many details and things about that scene!!!)

LOL. You literally asked the same question as me, Rath.

Did I? *confused* You don't throw a rock at the 'control panel', you jab at it with your finger.

You may be a little confused. The lever you through the rocks at releases a brake and lets you take a cable gondola from the dock to Science Island. There's a separate control on the island that lifts a different gondola out of the water.Tawmis wrote: ↑Thu Mar 10, 2022 2:22 am Are you the thing (sorry, don't know what it is) - that the hero throws the rock at to make it pick up the boat?

So no.

Original clue:
I'm something simple
Full of anachronisms
Get the reference?
New clue:
Rath is pretty close.

Are you the gondola-boat itself, perhaps? (You winch it up out of the water, and eventually turn it into a hot air balloon that you can steer!)

I don't move, but I cause something to happen.

I think I know this. Are you the 'control panel' thing at the entrance to Science Island? I'm thinking of the one where you have to solve five riddles about science before you can meet with Dr. Pretorius/Mobius.

I'm something simple - The control panel is really just a door lock.
Full of anachronisms - The riddles mention things like atoms and perpetual motion machines; things you do really hear about in a medieval fantasy setting.
Get the reference? - The riddles also contain references to Hitchhiker's Guide and Star Trek.
Your turn.
