hint
Runes of Eridu:
All those cryptic symbols from which to choose from... and if I
screw up three times, the puzzle is reset and I have to start all
over again. Maybe I should pause and reflect for a moment. (yes,
that was a clue) Those figures in the top area do look somewhat
familiar. Should be as easy as 1-2-3. H-m-m-m-m.
Hall of Hidden Links:
The object here is to determine what some of the objects have in
common. Like, say, the statue and the table, which each have four
legs. Or the brush and the hammer, which each have handles. Or
the quern, (which is used for grain) and the... Am I rambling?
Day and Night:
You are faced with 6 disks, 3 white and 3 black. The problem is
that they must get to the other side of the board via the little
slab of wood in the middle. No problem, but wait, the black ones
will eat the white ones if you leave more black on one side than
white. So it looks like you have to constantly make sure that
there are even amounts of black disks and white disks on either
side at all times. The first thing you should do is try to get
two black disks on the right side while the slab is on the left
side ready for passengers. This may require more than one trip,
and returning back and forth a few times, but I think you can do
it!
Hall of the Sun:
This one requires that you push all of the little balls of $@&%
into the little hole at the bottom of the game. Looks easy, and
it is, except for that group of little balls of $@&% at the
top. You can't back em up if they get pushed into the wall so you
have to be careful when pushing them around. Start by getting all
the balls in the centre top portion of the puzzle in the hole
first, then go to the balls in the centre lower portion. From
then it's a cake walk to clear the left room and the right room.
Step carefully!
Harmony of Hassuna:
This requires that you first find the five pieces of the puzzle
which are scattered throughout the structure. They are easy to
find though. The five pieces fit together to form a perfect
square. The small square piece is the upper left part of the
square. By clicking on the pieces, you can turn them until they
line up where you want them.
Girsu Gates:
This is the classic one where you arrange the tiles to form a
design. But there are four colours, so which object goes where?
Well, they are all round objects, and the first thing you should
do is look for the tops of the round objects. Some of them have
the tops and the bottoms of two different objects on the same
tile. Makes sense that these two coloured objects are stacked on
top of each other, no? Hint, the yellow object goes by itself on
the right side of the puzzle. OK, that's enough, go get 'em.
Parity of Jalam:
Now you get to play engineer. You are to get equal amounts of
water into each "field". A field consists of a groups
of four tubes, which are divided into units. There are three
groups in all. Don't worry about getting the individual tubes
equal, your job is to divide the water equally amongst the fields.
Hint: first count the total amount of units of water possible.
Divide this by 3, which is the number of fields. The resulting
number tells you how many units of water you need per field.
Court of Convergence and Utsavah:
This one's pretty easy, just slide the blocks around until the
design on them matches the design underneath. Really pretty
simple. Honest.
Values of Al-Jabara:
This one was a real brain-bender. You are shown symbols and need
to discover their numerical value, from 1 to 10. Two of them are
given to you (in easy mode) and the rest are, well, a guessing
game. First assign a letter to each symbol. Par example - The
round figure with no design make "a". The one that
looks sort of like a wagon wheel make "b". The pac-man
looking object make "c" and so on. Now notice that the
only object that doesn't have any other figures next to it. It
obviously is a number that can't be divided by any other number.
The only one I know of is the number one. Knowing that the pac-man
figure is one and you are given two other values, should make it
easy to figure this out. If you're still stuck, e-me for the
values of the numbers. Try it first though.
Ganj Dareh:
The object here is to flip the squares so that when you add the
columns, rows, and diagonal rows, they will all equal the same
number. If I give you the answer, it will not be a challenge for
you, but if you want the answer, simply delete every other letter
in the following word, and that is the number you need to make
all the rows, columns and diagonals equal.
Memory of Bandahm:
Let your kid do this one. Go get a coke or a beer, come back in
five minutes, and it'll be done. Simply flip the tiles to reveal
the design, drag them where you think they go, and if you're
correct, they will stay turned over. Doesn't take a team of wild
horses to figure this one out.
Hall of the Nightsky:
You are faced with a board on which are located several blocks
with designs on them. The idea here is to drop the blocks into
the corresponding slots at the side of the board. To get the
levers to move, just click on them. To move the blocks, drag them
where you want 'em. Pretty easy.
Turning of the Divasah:
This one would be hard to try to explain easily, but here goes.
What I did was to turn the first lever and jot down which tiles
it turned. Then I turned the second lever and noted which tiles
that one turned, etc. etc. There are several levers that turn
only one tile and the rest are linked and turn two tiles. Get
those which are linked to others to match, and then turn the
unlinked tiles to match those. The object here is to get the same
design all the way around the wheel. Doesn't matter which design,
just match 'em. Told you it would be hard to describe.
Wheels of Time:
Looking down on this puzzle you see a large wheel in the centre
surrounded by six smaller wheels with a round wooden apparatus in
the centre. To your left are no fewer than twelve levers, which
when clicked on, cause a white ball to be deposited on the wooden
apparatus. To your right is yet another handle, which when
clicked on causes the whole mess to turn, with wheels going in
different directions. Sheesh! What the...! Elementary my dear
Watsons and Watsonettes. The object here is to place all 12 of
the round balls on the small wheels in such a manner that the
large wheel can turn without the balls ever being directly
opposite any balls on the wheels next to it. O-o-o-o-k! Each
wheel can hold only two balls, pretty much destroying your theory
that you can put six balls on the first wheel and the other six
balls on any other wheel. About the only clue I can give on this
one is the fact that when completed, each wheel has it's limit of
two balls on it, and that the balls on each wheel are sitting
next to each other. (there are no spaces between the balls on any
of the wheels) Trust me, this can be done.
Horses of Asvah:
This was a pretty fun puzzle. You are shown a puzzle where each
of the nine squares have partial pictures of horses on them,
differently coloured. The object is to arrange all of the squares
so that the colours and directions of the horses line up with
each other on each of the squares. Looks pretty random until you
notice that at least one of the horses is heading in a different
direction than the other horses of that same colour. For example,
all of my red horses faced east and west except for the tail end
of one red horse which faced north. I realised that since this
was the tail end of a red horse, and that I didn't have the front
end of a red horse that headed north, this had to go somewhere on
the top of the puzzle. The next time I played the game from the
beginning, the same puzzle had two clues like this, the tail end
of a red north-bounder with no front end of a red north-bounder
and the front end of a blue east-bounder with no rear end of a
blue east- bounder to match it up with. This told me that the red
north-bounder had to go to the top of the puzzle and that the
blue east-bounder had to go to the left side of the puzzle. Make
sense? If you study your puzzle, you'll probably see what I'm
talking about.
Ruma Bowls:
Try to get all of the beans into the large bowl at the right. The
rules are simple. Choose any bowl to start. Both beans will be
removed from that bowl and one bean is put into each of the
following two bowls. Your next move must be from the bowl that
received your last bean. If your last bean lands in the big bowl,
you can choose any bowl for your next move. As your clue, in the
room of the Values of Al-Jabara, there is a drawing of this
puzzle on the wall as soon as you enter. One of the bowls is
coloured blue, I believe. This is your starting point.
Leap of the Locust:
Hopscotch is the name of the game here. I'll give you a pretty
good head start on the solution. Assume that the holes are
numbered 1-9 starting from the upper left hole and circling to
the left (counter- clockwise) Click on the following holes,
regardless of whether they are occupied or not. 6-4-3-5-7-8-6-4-2-1-3.
That should be a pretty good start.
Watery Chaos:
What you have to do here is arrange the tiles so that each design
on a tile pairs with the same design on the adjacent tile. Heres
a clue. In the group of 4 tiles to the left of the puzzle, the
centre designs are suns. The group of tiles in the centre of the
puzzle are 8-sided circular thing-a-ma-bobs.
Path to Utsavah:
You notice several squares with one, two, three, or four designs
on them and what appears to be your goal in the lower right
corner. Using the compass, choose a square you wish to go to.
Since your beginning square has one design, you can go only one
square right or down. If you choose to go down, you will land on
a square that has two designs, telling you that your next move
may be two squares down or right. (you can only go right since
you are on the far left edge of the playing board). Wherever you
land there are designs which tell you how many squares you next
move must be. Try to get to the goal. Hint, the example I just
gave you is the correct path. There are only nine moves to
complete the puzzle. Try working it backwards!
