Black Mirror III Hints
How can I solve the burial mound location puzzle?
1 of 13: First, close the puzzle screen to get Darren to give you a hint.
2 of 13: He says that three underlined words should do it.
3 of 13: Bring the puzzle screen back up, then carefully read through the text for clues to the burial mounds' locations.
4 of 13: The first clue is in the very first sentence.
5 of 13: It says their group has been investigating the ground at sector 13, so click the pencil on that to underline it.
6 of 13: Read on to find more clues to the mounds' location and/or distinguishing features.
7 of 13: Check the last paragraph on the right-side page.
8 of 13: Notice its mention of marshland. That's a useful clue.
9 of 13: The underlining of the word "marshland" is a bit screwy. You need to click on the "land" part of it, and the underlining will be a bit off.
10 of 13: Also note the reference to animal bones. Those could be used to help locate the burial mounds within the marshland.
11 of 13: Click on "animal," "bones," or "from" to get that part underlined.
12 of 13: After you underline those three items, the puzzle screen should close, and Darren should make a separate comment on each item.
13 of 13: However, there's a glitch that prevents him from making a comment on sector 13. The only way to ever finish the puzzle is to enable additional game help (see the General Tips) and wait for the instant-solve lever to appear near the bottom right corner of the screen. After you solve the puzzle by hitting the lever, you can turn off additional game help if you want to.
