Faust: The Seven Games of the Soul Hints
Where can I find the herbs?
1 of 8: You should have heard two clues. One when you first enter the garden; the other when you gave Hannibal his strap.
2 of 8: Traveling through time is the only way to gather herbs from different seasons.
3 of 8: The time portal is by way of the garden table.
4 of 8: The twelve signs of the zodiac are in the center of the table with four trees around them. The trees depict the four seasons. (Going clockwise, beginning with the top left, they are: Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring.)
5 of 8: To activate the portal, press four astrological tiles in the proper order.
6 of 8: After the portal is active, press a tree to travel to that season. (The story seems to play out best if you choose Summer, then Autumn, then Winter, and back to Spring.)
7 of 8: Pick an herb from each season from the same vine.
8 of 8: When finished collecting the four herbs, return to your proper time by pressing the Spring tree.
