There are many doors in the game. Can you be more specific as to which door in what area? Thank you.

I'm on Level 8 I think with the turtle and 4 symbols on the doors with one lit up and red arrows on the side. The sides are locked. I think the gong hammer is behind the doors. I would appreciate any help.

Have you tried the walkthrough (upper left corner)?

Copied from the walkthrough:

using the green arrows, scroll through the symbols until they match the ones on the door.
scroll through the top and side ones until they lock on place, one of the doors will be highlighted.
drag the small square at the center of the door to the block that's highlighted so it covers it.
the symbols will fall off and that part of the door will open.
continue to do this for the remaining three doors.

I have tried to open the doors for about 2 weeks. I think there is a glitch in the game. Is there anyway to bypass section 8? Or can you offer some other type of solution? I am really stuck! Help...I move the center tile over the lit panel and the arrow turns blue and sparkly but nothing happens. From what I understand a part of the panel should fall off but it doesn't.

It's possible there is a glitch. I would contact BFG and the problem and see if they have a solution. I suspect it will be "re install your game and start over." However, sometimes you can get a free credit out of the deal.

The panels won't open and I've tried everything. The tiles don't match but they turned yellow and now I can't change the small tile to match them and remove the large panel. Please help me. I don't want to redo the whole game.

Unfortunately it seems that this is virtually happening to everyone with the game. I have the same problem. I can get one symbol to turn green but now I have two miss-matched symbols which are yellow and can do absolutely nothing to get the scrolling to work.

Has anyone come across a fix or even a patch for this obvious programming error?
