[item]Roll the carpet back and place the PUZZLE BLOCKS on the area to initiate a puzzle.[/item]
[/LIST]
[gimg]/Grim-Tales-The-Wishes/images/46-chapter-1-Puzzle-blocks.jpg[/gimg][LIST]
[item]The aim is to remove all the blocks by placing matching cubes next to each other, which eliminates them. [/item]
[item]There are three levels presented – [/item]
[/LIST][NUMBERED]
[item]Level 1 - The trick to the first frame are the three purple cubes. Drop the lowest one between the two brown cubes. Drop the highest one to the spot where the previous one was. Next, drop the purple cube sitting on top of the green cube down on to the first purple cube – all three purple cubes should now disappear. The rest are easy to eliminate, starting with the brown cubes, then the green, and finally the aquamarine. See the screenshot for guidance.[/item]
[item]Level 2 – The key to solving this puzzle is straightforward – there’s five of each color, so at some point with each color, you have to eliminate three at one time. Getting rid of the last two is then dead easy. To make three disappear at the same time, drop two to the very bottom, making sure that they don’t touch each other, and line them up so that one sits directly underneath a wooden block that still has a cube of the same color sitting above it. The other colored cube will be set up underneath a neighboring wooden block, leaving a gap directly between the two for the other colored cube to fall into, making three in a row – the instant you drop the third cube into place, all three will disappear. Then it’s simply a case of dropping the remaining two cubes to the bottom and sliding them next to each other. The principle is exactly the same for the brown cubes. [/item]
[item]Level 3 – The key to the third level are the brown blocks, which are odd in number. This means that three have to be eliminated at the same time. The other colors, being even, can be eliminated pair by pair until they’re gone. The way to get the ball rolling is to move the two top brown cubes towards the centre until they each sit either side and above of the brown cube in the middle of the row second from top. Then move one of the two top cubes so that it sits on top of the brown one, meaning all three will be touching – all three should disappear. Once done it simple becomes a case of eliminating the remainder by pairs, taking care not to let another color get trapped between two others, especially along the bottom. [/item]
[/NUMBERED][LIST]
[item]Once complete, take the proffered QUILL and return to the living room. [/item]
[/LIST]
[gimg]/Grim-Tales-The-Wishes/images/47-chapter-1-children-frame.jpg[/gimg][LIST]
[item]Take CHILD’S DRAWING from inventory and place it in the appropriate frame on the wall, then use the QUILL on it. [/item]
[item]Watch the clip as it whisks you away to the next section of the adventure. [/item]
