The 11th Hour Hints

Solution

  • 1 of 6: Once you know the rules, a bit of educated trial and error is really the only solution here.
  • 2 of 6: What I'd recommend is just picking any keys, but make sure to obey the symmetry requirements.  It may help if you write down the numbers on a sheet of paper or something like that, since I think it's easier to view the symmetry without the graphics.
  • 3 of 6: As you get close to the total, you may have to make some adjustments.  Again, make sure that the keys form the proper shapes.  Just keep playing with the keys and try to close in on 81.
  • 4 of 6: Here's one of several solutions:
  • 5 of 6: On the top row, press the first, fourth, fifth, and sixth keys from the left.
  • 6 of 6: On the bottom row, press the first, sixth, and seventh keys from the left.
