Black Dahlia Hints
How do I work the Museum Seal puzzle?
1 of 6: The seal has two stamps, one over the other. Swap their positions by rotating the rings on a handle.
2 of 6: The object is to replace the exposed silver quadrants with the hidden bronze ones to form the picture of the Landulph black eagle. (See the seals on the parchment in the case.)
3 of 6: Remember to left-click and hold while you drag the ring right or left.
4 of 6: Label the rings from 1 through 5 from top to bottom, the Number 5 ring being closest to you. Ring 1 rotates the inner seal pieces. The others move particular parts of the seal in and out, if they are in the right position to move.
5 of 6: Since there are no clues given to help solve this puzzle, the full solution is below.
