Black Dahlia Hints
What is the solution to the Crystal Spheres puzzle?
1 of 13: Press F1 to view the instructions. Jump from one planet to another in the proper order.
2 of 13: Cassie can help. (Press Esc or the World Map option to return to Cassie.) Tell her about the spheres and look at the astrology book she offers.
3 of 13: The order of the planets is important, but Jim did not write that in his notebook.
4 of 13: Have you reviewed the Police file on the torso killer?
5 of 13: Talk to Sullivan about the file. Then visit Merylo.
6 of 13: The evidence in their file has a connection to the planet order.
7 of 13: Find the missing evidence to get all the information you need.
8 of 13: Each newspaper has numbers visable in between the blood stains at the top. For instance, Item #3 shows the numbers 1 5. Compare these with the numerical assignments of each planet.
9 of 13: Saturn is assigned the number 15. It is the first place to select during your trance.
10 of 13: Once back in a trance, click on the planets in the order from the newspapers.
11 of 13: Ignore the colors of the astrological signs. The shapes of the astrological signs determine the planets, as well as the color of the planets themselves.
12 of 13: Click on the silver sphere to finish.
13 of 13: This is the order you should use: Saturn, Mars, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Earth.
