The Loading Dock (Munch's Oddysee)
 

i'm stuck at the loading dock. the seer says something about finding a water main, does anyone know how i can get to it - there are too many enemies. i generally just don't know what i'm doing. how does munch get up to the remote control center for the crane? any help would be great, thanks.

If I remember correctly, the crane isn't used untile the end practically. This level is hard, with good reason. It's kind of a turning point on whether or not you get to play the last two levels.

Rather than reinventing (or more accurately, rewriting) the wheel, why do you check out the followin walkthrough for some suggestions:
