Riven guide - Part 1
So, here we go then. Getting out of jail shouldn't be too much of a problem, so now is a good time to read the book you are carrying to fill in a bit of the background detail. The first machine you see is actually a telescope - don't waste time here as it can't be used... yet.

Other wise know as the Rotating room - the first puzzle. Press the knob four times, which rotates the room into the right posistion, now go back, turn left and pop down to the locked gate by the cliff. Can't get through? Examine it a bit more carefully -you can actually crawl underneath! Now you can acess the gate room and cross it to a smaller cave. Move the lever into a horizontal posistion ( this channels the Island's steam power to the telescope)
Turn around and press the door button twice, then push the lever on the left up- this opens another gate. Go across to this entrance, sneak through, turn around and push the lever on the left, then press the button on the right twice again -this opens up the cliff top entrance. Leave through here, turn around and press the knob on the right twice, now you can walk right through the gate room into the gold sphere!
This place is the central power source, distributing power to the five Riven Islands. Take the walkway to the right, outside. Turn the lever near the escaping steam to the left- this provides power to the bridge. Follow the path some more and turn the next lever. Don't worry about the other things, we'll get to them later...
Now walk back into the Gold sphere and gate room and continue across the bridge opposite the hillside entrance. Explore the two rooms off the winding cave, the equipment cannot be used but make sure you press the door opening lever by the porthole. Exit this room, and walk through the second room ( and the door you have just opened) out to the mag-lev. Press the blue button to summon the futuristic chariot, get in, press the left button to rotate it and push forward the power lever.

Enjoy the ride? Good. Turn to the right and go up the staircase, Where the road splits into three tracks, take the middle path (we'll come back to the others.) Continue along, then take the left hand path where the track splits again.
Go through the second gate and take the path to your right once you enter the village, carry on until you reach the stone buildings. Climb the ladders (knock at the locked door five times to annoy the resident!), then, when at the top of the cliff, pull the lever to lower the vehicle into the water -you need this later on.
Now go back to the stone staircase (yes, all the way at the other side of the island!) and go down the steps to the beach. See the animals? Local beasts known as Sunners! Explore the beach, then follow the stone path around to the wooden walkway and climb the ladder to the end. Climb down the next one, and hey presto!- you're in the submarine.
