I'm not sure if this is the puzzle you mean, but click on this screenshot and see if that is the solution that you need. Thanks, Margie B

Thanks, Margie, but that is not it. It is the grid one at Dave's dive.

dlst,
I don't have a screenshot, but the trick to that one is to take the one of them, I think it was the blue one, and connect it without ever touching any of the outside edges. It just squiggles around from the left under the red one and zig zags over to its other one. Then you can take the green one one way around the grid and I think you take the yellow one the other way. But the main point is that the blue one has to stay completely inside so there are paths open for the other two. See if that helps any. Good luck!

I think will wait for a walkthrough or something because I can't do the safe one, either. Where you have to move the locks to one side and the keys to the other. It's impossible! ARGGGG!

I figured out the safe after playing with the locks and keys for a long time but the grid with the colored lines I can't figure out. ANYONE know?

BLUE L,U,U,U,L,L,L,L,D,D,D,R.
GREEN R,D,D,D,L,L,D,L,L,L.
YELLOW D,L,L,L,L,L,U,U,R,R,U,U,L,U.Good luck to everyone!

TRACE THE COLORED WIRES WITH YOUR MOUSE WHEN YOU GRT TO THE END OF THAT WIRE CONNET IT SO ON SO FORTH HOPE THIS HELPS
Hi, Annie, welcome to Gamezebo! The puzzle you're talking about is the one in the air compressor that comes pretty early on in the game, when you're trying to get an air tank filled so you can dive for pearls.
The one people have been having trouble with is also at the Dive Shop, but it occurs later and is inside the shop at night, where you have to fix a circuit box to turn on the lights in the shop. Both dive shop puzzles, but different solutions.

If you can get a screenshot of the puzzle I can give you a solution, but I've already gone past there in the game and I don't remember it off the top of my head.

Anyone figured out the arrows? I can't figure out how to get past them on the island.
Also, I'm wondering how long this game is. I don't want to buy it and have it be over too quickly. It's a lot of fun. How many chapters is it? Anyone know yet?

Stuck trying to find the code for the viewfinder..............anyone willing to hlp me out please!
Send a Kudo Post a reply Quote & Reply -
Ruthannals, I think we get the code for the viewfinder from the guy in the tavern. We have to play tic tac toe with him and beat him 3 times. I am stuck at this point. I have only won 1 game. I have been trying for the last hour. I know this is a random game so I think I will have trouble with getting help. I am so frustrated at this point.

play tic tac toe with the innkeeper, who gives you the code for the mansion gate...then you need to open the safe. this will give you the code to the viewfinder
Send a Kudo Post a reply Quote & Reply -
If I remember correctly, you need to pick up the colored, shaped items on the screen and put them in the stone in front of the arrows. As you put the first one in, the stone rises to reveal the next one, etc.

spikes blocking the door have me stumped too. must have something to do with the hole on the floor on the left, but can't figure it out
Send a Kudo Post a reply Quote & Reply -
figured it out...start with the green spike in the hole closest to you. then put one of the diamonds on it....you can figure it out from there

I am still stuck playing tic tac toe. I read someone posted the code for the viewfinder as 7251. I tried this and nothing happens. The mansion door takes 3 numbers. Help please. I just cannot beat that guy. LOL

Hey Margie B, Just want to thank you for all your help and wish you, Gamezbo, and all the members a happy holiday.

Second question first: the game is pretty short. I don't remember the exact number of chapter, but it's about the same length as Alabama Smith, depending on how long it takes you to solve the puzzles. Much much shorter than Ravenhearst or Mushroom Age. Also shorter than Samantha Smith or Dr. Lynch.
OK, first question. There is a short stone column in the middle of the path. You can see one carved space in it, sort of a circle.
You need to find a jewel in the scene that fits that space. (It's a pink sun if I remember correctly.) The column will rise up a bit. You'll see another space. Find the jewel for it.
There are three jewels altogether. After that, the center column will block the arrows.
Then just click on the path further ahead and you'll be able to continue.

Sandy, it looks like tic tac toe at first glance, but it's actually a variation of the old board game Otello. The twist is that there are a couple of pieces torn out of the paper, so they're missing from the board. But you use the same blocking strategies.
The guy in the tavern will go fairly easy on you, but it's a matter of recognising the winning patterns.
Anytime he has two in a row with spaces on each side, he can make a 3 in a row score. However, he may be trying to make a 4 or 5 in a row score and keep working.
If he goes first, put your mark a Knight's move away from his (like a chess Knight).
You can generally win just by playing for 3 in a rows yourself and blocking anytime he goes for 4 or 5 in a row. He seems to try to play for 4s all the time, and you may be able to beat him with two 3's and blocking his chance for 4.
So he's playing for a complicated win and you can fairly often beat him by getting a couple of simple ones. I beat him a couple of times with scores like 7 to 5.
I hope that helps a little. Good luck!

I am stuck on the sailboat puzzle. Anyone know how to get to the finish line?
The red buoys are fixed. You can click on the green buoys and change the direction of the buoy arm. When the boat gets there, it will go in the direction of the arm. So you use the green buoys to steer the boat towards the next "bumper."
There are a lot of different ways to get to the island. Remember that you can change a buoy after the boat has passed it once so it will go a different direction the next time. That can fix any errors you've made.
When I did it, I had the boat go around to the right while I figured out how the buoys worked. That was near the bottom of the screen. Then sent it around to the left in the center, all the way over to the right (still in the center) and then up to the top of the screen and over to the island.
But as I said, there are a lot of ways, I think I just did that one because it took me awhile to figure out that the boat would to in the direction of the arm. (At first I thought the arm was what the boat bumped into, so it would block it, but it's not--it's a direction pointer.)
Good luck!

If I remember correctly (that's a slider with stones instead of wooden pieces, right?), the only way I found to solve that was to move one of the smallest squares into the space where the key had been, and even then it took awhile.
If I'm confused about which puzzle you're asking about, please forgive me, but I think that was the one.

Thanks robin9412 but it's the wooden pieces. I've tried and tried and just can't figure out how all the pieces move to get them out of the way of the arrow piece. Frustrating!

I'm also stuck on the safe puzzle where you must slide one set of blocks over to the other side. I can never work these out. Any advice?

Thanks for the reply, Robin. I think I'll wait until my Game Credit comes back around next month then. Not going to spend 15 dollars on a short game. Unless BFG brings it out soon, then I might be able to use my Game Credit there, it comes up sooner than Real Arcade does. Am I being cheap? Why, yes, I am.
I'll go test out the arrow thing, before my demo drops out. Thanks.
