Welcome to Gamezebo’s walkthrough for Echoes of the Past: Royal House of Stone.

General Tips

The Menu crown at the top-left corner of the screen to displays the game menu. Help displays a list of icons and descriptions. Options allows you to change the music and sound volume, and also to toggle between full screen mode. High Scores displays the names of the players that have completed the game in the quickest times. Main menu exits the current game and displays the main menu. Resume exits the game menu and continues the game.
Select the Magic Book below the Menu Crown to read notes and clues that are added as you play through the game.
Move the mouse cursor to the top of the game window and the inventory window will drop down, which displays all of the items that are currently being held.
The mirror at the top-right corner of the screen will display information and hints about locations in the game. In hidden object locations, the mirror will become a hint counter than can be clicked to identify hidden objects. Finding mirrors in the hidden object locations will increase the hint counter. Even if all hints have been used, wait one minute and an additional hint will be given.
There are two types of hidden object locations. In locations which display a list of objects that need to be found, the names of the hidden objects and the order in which they appear are random each time. In locations where a set of items need to be found (feathers, rings, etc.), the order is not random.
Clicking too many times in the wrong area on hidden object areas will cause the cursor to disappear for a few seconds.
When red text appears in the hidden object locations, this means that a puzzle has to be solved before the item with red text can be found.
There are various mini-games scattered throughout the main adventure. The Skip crown will become active at the top-right corner of the screen after 90 seconds have passed. Select this crown to skip the mini-game.
