Armed & Delirious Hints

MUST I waste my time playing darts?

  • 1 of 6: I'm afraid you must ... sooner or later!  Only when you get the configuration correct will the microwave oven door open and you can progress further.
  • 2 of 6: The dart board {BUY1} consists of three concentric multicolored circles. When you click any colored segment, its ring rotates and that segment arrives at the top.
    You have to obtain a prearranged "pattern".  To the best of my knowledge, there is no clue whatsoever in the game to assist you with this.  The inner circle contains 4 colored segments, the next ring contains 8, and the outside one 16.  So you have 4 x 8 x 16 = 512 permutations.

    If you do this systematically it shouldn't take too long.  If you are ~shockingly unlucky~ and have to go through ALL the combinations before you hit on the correct one, it still can't take longer than 30 to 45 minutes.

    If however you haven't got the interest or patience for this, the following Hints will give you the colors in succession.  The last Hint is a ~complete~ Spoiler.
  • 3 of 6: Center circle -- click on yellow.
  • 4 of 6: Middle ring -- click on blue.
  • 5 of 6: Outside ring -- click on the brown which is between the red and the gray segments.
  • 6 of 6: If you somehow know the "trick" the whole puzzle is VERY easy!  In each of the three cases, simply click on the adjoining segment (clockwise) to the initially uppermost one.
