Black Dahlia Hints
Tell me how to fold the Invitation!
1 of 9: Notice that some of the designs on the invitation are outlined in yellow. These represent the panels on the door. When folded correctly, you will end up with a square showing all 8 panels in order. The game gives no indication that the puzzle is done correctly.
2 of 9: If you want to fold the invitation, try the following: (Note: Turn over does not mean flip over; the top should remain the top.) Start with the white side up; Thule awakens should be readable.
3 of 9: Fold the left column over (there are 4 columns).
4 of 9: Now turn it over (top staying the top) to the black side. Fold the bottom row up. You now have a 3 x 3 square. Still on the same side, fold the bottom right corner over, so that the 2 outlined shapes (trapezoids) fold over. Fold the left corner up along a diagonal running from the left down to the bottom right, so that the outlined triangles and trapezoids are in the bottom L and R quarters, respectively.
5 of 9: Turn to the other side. Fold the top left corner along a diagonal running from the lower left to the top right, so that the diamond is approximately in the center.
6 of 9: Turn over. Fold the left column so that the outlined wedge/triangle fold over.
7 of 9: Turn over. Fold over the top left triangle with the wedge.
8 of 9: Turn over. Fold on the crease between the 2 small yellow arrows to form a square. The diamond should be in the top left quadrant. The diamond and rest of the designs should form a circle on the square.
9 of 9: Reading clockwise beginning with the diamond is the answer to the Raven Room door puzzle.
