The 11th Hour Hints

Solution

  • 1 of 7: This puzzle shouldn't be all that difficult, as long as you're fairly methodical.
  • 2 of 7: It might help if you drew some kind of rough sketch of what the puzzle is supposed to look like, so you can tell what piece is missing and where pieces should go.
  • 3 of 7: Just remember that the pieces will look slightly different depending on whether or not your flashlight is shining on them.
  • 4 of 7: Basically, you want to start by locating where the missing piece is.
  • 5 of 7: Then, from there, try to fill in the puzzle starting from the edge(s) (only one edge if one of the missing pieces is a corner).
  • 6 of 7: Just work on getting the two pieces in the same column adjacent to one another and then rotate the pieces until you've put a column in its place. By rotating, I just mean sliding one piece into a hole, and having all of the others follow in a circle.
  • 7 of 7: If you seem to get stuck by this method, restart and try it again.  Some configurations seem more easily solvable this way than others.
