Do you think 3 who feel like dummies will get an answer? I am stuck where you both are plus I can't get the Myan Temple puzzle finished because of the mirror pieces of the woman puzzle will not line up. I think it is perfect lining it up the eyes, nose, mouth, helmet, face contour, braid. What else is there? Please someone help us. Thanks in advance. Looking forward to a walkthru on this great game.

CHAPTER 1
Here are the pictures
Maya:Pyramid
* The tutorial will guide you through the first steps but I will write them on here as well in case you missed something.
*
* Pick up the feathers that are on the right side of the screen, on the stone carving.
*
* Then pick up the hammer rest of the hammer pieces that are scattered somewhere in the scene. They are highlighted in red in the screenshot.
*
* Grab the red crystal that is on the top left side. There is a big red gem on top, the crystal you need to pick up is the one that is on the pole, just below the large red gem.
*
* The crystal will activate the Repair Artifact so the hammer can go into the inventory box that is on the right side of the page.
*
* Grab the hammer from inventory and place it on the jug that is on the right side of the ground. Once the jug is broken you will find a piece of thebranch, click on the branch piece.
*
* Now collect the rest of the pieces that are highlighted in blue. and yellow to assemble the rest of the pieces.
*
* There will be one piece for the green stone that is not visible at the moment, other actions have to be performed first in order for it to be revealed.
*
* Take the branch from inventory and place it on the big head that is on the ground that is about to sneeze.
*
* *Make sure that you put the tip of the cursor on the nostril of the head or it will not take the branch*
*
* Once the statue sneezes, it will open its mouth and in it you will find the last piece of the green stone.Maya Pyramid B
* Place the stone on top of the structure on the right side.

*
* Take the knife and place it on the branch that is on top of the steps. Once the branch has been cut off you will see some symbols that are on fire in the sky.
*
* Take the stone tablet from the right side of the page and place it on the stone structure that is on the right, below the carved face ( not the large stone head)
*
* Click on the stone tiles that you placed on the structure on the right and a pop-up window will appear.
*
* You have to duplicate the images you see in the sky by clicking the symbols that match it on the stone puzzle.Click on the tiles in the order that is shown above.
*
* The symbols are random so I cannot give you the exact tiles to click on but it's pretty easy.
*
* Once the correct tiles have been entered the stone carving will have a scroll in its mouth, click on it to go to the next scene.
*
Good Luck, Margie B -

ok I still cant get the top on the temple.It wont stay there.Ive looked at the screen shots,the top isnt on the tip of my cursor and I cant get it there no matter how I pick it up weird.

Hi Debm, when you are trying to place the piece on top, make sure that the area has a white outline around it and then click on it so it can stay on. Remember that you're not supposed to place the stone piece like you see on the screenshot, your cursor has to be in that area. Try the white outline thing and let me know if that helps. Margie

I just read your answer....left click on the top, one time, and you'll see a shadow of it on your cursor, then you can use the method I described above.

Thank you so much Margie your really precious to not only us here at gamezebo but Gameboomers also. You sure must have alot of energy to be in all the places you are at once and do all the games you do. Thank you from all of us.
Now I still am stuck at the Mayan Temple. I have one piece of a green stone tooth left. Where the 3 statues are I opened that secret opening but what goes in there? Also where are the drumsticks to play the drums? I have clicked on everything on this screen it seems and nothing new is coming up.
I think I Finished the Indo China screen there doesn't seem to be anything to do there.
I have no more clues left and really am stuck. Thanks in advance for whoever reads this help.

You can get extra hints........look in the hint area and click the bottom one. I'm not quite sure where you are in the game, but the extra hints will help you. When it gives you a screen you have to get 10 ? marks. You will then get two extra hints, just keep doing that when you are desperate for a hint!

Wow! They really make us work for those hints. LOL

Thank you I past that level and now I am in Greece. One thing though those star puzzles are not easy, one would have been enough with a timer but putting 3 or more isn't playing fair. LOL -
Hey Sherryah, I just left a tip over at Gameboomers for NYLady on how to get through the stars quickly.

can you help me in the english castle and the water taps -
Line the puzzle up starting with the outside rings and work inward. Use the temple structure on the left lower portion of the ring to start. The pieces will lock in place when correct. I started with the face outward and it didn't work until I went from the outside in.

TY Margie for your replies...I will check out your way. It must be that you have to do things in that order, since the only thing I had left was to place the top on and it would not stay...there was no white line. I had cut the branch beforehand in that level and saw no code, so maybe that's it. I'll try the level over again later today, thanks again!

Help! Everything was going good till I got to Africa now I'm stuck in the tent working on the wall hanging that you have to swap the tiles on. when the wallhanging drops I can't see the center to know where to swap the tiles. any advice?

Hi Silvercougar, that is well known glitch in the game, you need to update the copy that you have. If you bought it at Alawar, look in the forum and you'll get a link for the newest version. The Big Fish version is glitch free. Good Luck!

Margie B can you help? The Indo-China screen hint says the piece i'm looking for is hidden. The Maya-Walls screen hint says I have to find and solve the puzzle, however, the pieces inside the shield/mirror won't turn. Am I the only one having this problem?

I'm stuck in the Wild West in the saloon where you have to spin the wheel and make the numbers add up. I can't figure this part at all and I can't go any further until I complete it. Help, please.

Help, I'm stuck on the "Indian Reservation" i don't which colors to pick to paint the wing. thanks,,,

I started over and it was the same trouble. But I finally got it. If yours is like mine, all the items worked fine and your cursor held each item directly on right? But if you notice when we picked up the stone top, our cursor was WAY ahead of the stone top. But MargieB said we should see white lines, and the ONLY time I do is when I first pick up the stone top...so all I did after numerous failures, was to pick up the top, and click it right where you are...still in the right box of stuff in other words...and FINALLY it zoomed up to the top own it's own. Must be a glitch in certain games is all I know. Anyway, then like MargieB said, you cut the branch and the fire & code appears. Off to get stuck on some other level now...lol. Thanks again to MargieB for time spent.

Has anyone had problems with the 2nd page,where the girl is in a mirror that you turn the circles? I have turned and turned but nothing happens. I can not get the very outer edge to move. Does it move? something must be wrong. I hope someone can help. -
The outer edge of the mirror does not move. That is the edge that you have to line up with and match. Work your way from the outer circles to the inner circles.

Just turn each circle very slowly and the pieces will lock in automatically. Look at the screenshot that is in the walkthrough so you can see what the picture looks like. Click on the tips and tricks above this page and it will take you to the walkthrough, scroll down and you'll see the image of the girl. Once it's complete, it will disappear off the screen.
