Dracula 3: The Path of the Dragon Hints
How can I solve this tile puzzle?
1 of 12: Click around to notice that each tile can be changed to blue-gray (which I'll just call blue), then black, and then back to white.
2 of 12: Use the numbers around the four sides of the tile board to figure out which tiles to change to which colors.
3 of 12: Notice that some of the numbers are black, and some are blue, corresponding to those tile colors.
4 of 12: All the numbers along the left side of the board are black, and they tell you how many black tiles are in each row.
5 of 12: Any number that appears to be two digits or more, like 11 or 1211, is really four separate one-digit numbers.
6 of 12: For instance, if a row were labeled 44, that means there are two sets of four consecutive black tiles in that row, with at least one non-black tile in between them.
7 of 12: Each row also has a certain number of blue tiles in it, and the blue numbers along the right side of the tile board will tell you how many for each row.
8 of 12: The columns work the same way, with the numbers across the top of the board telling you how many black tiles are in each column, and the numbers across the bottom of the board doing the same thing for blue tiles.
9 of 12: It's easiest to figure out the pattern you're trying to make by filling in all of the black tiles first. The blue tiles usually just form a sort of shadow of the black tile pattern.
10 of 12: This puzzle is random, but there are only seven different possibilities, and you can easily change which one you get.
12 of 12: Below are graphical solutions to all seven of the tile puzzle variations. I name the graphics using the numbers that go across the top of the puzzle's board so you can tell which graphic goes with the variation you've got.
