I don't know really know how to answer the question. If you're asking for just general hints to get your game going smoothly I'd suggest things like:
1. Talk to everybody you meet about all the available topics, and sometimes you should ask people about things that aren't an obvious topic. People may know more than they tell off-hand.
2. After leaving Land King Hall for the first time, stick to the trail, and explore a little bit around it.
3. Always read books. There are books everywhere in the game. Keep an eye out for bookshelves and explore the libraries.
4. Never use fetch on a city unless you've saved recently.
5. Don't kill people. There are a lot of people in the land of Cythera, and some of them you feel the urge to shoot with a bolt of lightning, but don't, because despite how unimportant they may seem at the time, they may be necessary later on.
6. Explore everything. The land, caves, holes, cities, houses, sewers.
7. There are a lot of puzzles and the like in Cythera so you really just have to try, try, try.
8. Lastly, if you get absolutely, positively, beyond-a-shadow-of-a-doubt, hopelessly stuck, I'd say that you can use Slayer's Guide to Cythera to get more hints to help you out. The site also has spoilers, though. Unfortunately, Mac Classics, the server of Slayer's Guide to Cythera, appears to be down right now, to say the least.
