Black Dahlia Hints

Special Puzzle Solution Codes

  • 1 of 5: I hope that the hints and solutions given in this file have been enough to help you solve all of the puzzles on your own.
  • 2 of 5: Remember that puzzles early in the game can be considered primers for what is to come.  The logic required in solving them may be helpful for later puzzles, where no solution code may exist.
  • 3 of 5: CAUTION!  Use these codes only as a last resort -- or if you are playing a second time and want to quickly move through the game.
  • 4 of 5: If you are really stuck on a puzzle and have become frustrated, even after trying my hints, using a solution code will get you moving again.
  • 5 of 5: Because there are so many, I have split them up into the same segments I assigned to divide the hints.
    To use the code, type the special word on your keyboard while you are viewing the puzzle. The codes can be typed in any manner - upper and lower case, all lower case or in all capital letters.  The puzzle will solve itself instantly.
