Book Puzzle

  • If you’ve played the old sliding puzzle of putting letters or numbers in order you’ll get the idea with this.
  • The basic idea is to use the empty square to move pieces around the board, the specific object being to simply take the four semi-circle pieces and make a full circle around the center, as noted in the screenshot. If you need an actual solution, note the following sequence, working on the basis that the squares are numbered in the typical order of left to right - 3-7-6-2-1-5-6-2-1-5-9-10-14-13-9-10-11-12-15-16-14-10-11-15.

Gate Puzzle

  • Place the three WOLF COINS to initiate a puzzle.
  • The object of the puzzle is to move the wolf heads to the coins of the same color.
  • See the screenshot for the final appearance.
  • The easiest way to solve this is in two stages.
  • You’ll note that the red and white areas have one resting place each, whereas black and green have two.
  • So better to reserve the two colors with the most resting space (black and green) for last when you’ll need the wiggle room.
  • So start by using the resting spaces, plus the spare spaces towards back and green, to swap the red and white pieces to their appropriate areas – this should be pretty easy to accomplish. That then leaves the black and green pieces to move.
  • There’s a little bit of tooing and froing involved, but the way to work it is this –
  • - Pack all the red and white pieces as far in to their respective areas as possible by using the spare spaces (circled in blue) to hold one of each piece. This will then leave the spaces circled in yellow empty to help in the transfer of the other two colors.
  • - Note that the two circles marked in red at either end are both accessible from the nearest holding space. This is a very useful way of maneuvering two different colored pieces around each other towards the end.
  • - The third useful tool to use is the intersection (marked in orange) because it presents you with a key way of also swapping colors around. How? Let’s say you’ve stashed a couple of the green pieces on the two vacant areas marked in yellow. You then move a couple of black pieces up towards their home base, passing the intersection. Well, once you’re past that intersection, one or both of the green pieces (depending on what stage you’re at) can exit from the holding areas marked in yellow and move down towards their green zone. The black pieces can then reverse back to the intersection and take their place in the yellow holding areas. It sounds a little convoluted, but this passing, swapping and reversing at the intersection is the key to eventually solving the puzzle.
  • This isn’t hard, just tedious, so use the points mentioned above and you’ll have it done in no time.
  • Once complete, go through the gate into – the cemetery!!
