Faust: The Seven Games of the Soul Hints

"Make the radiant Sun shine ... " clue

  • 1 of 13: You received this clue from the waterwheel: "Make the radiant Sun shine in Glory upon Iris' rainbow.  Help is not far from the sailors."
  • 2 of 13: The rainbow was a focal point earlier in this episode.
  • 3 of 13: Go to the bedroom, where you can see both obvious and subtle changes.
  • 4 of 13: It is so dark.  Brighten it up!
  • 5 of 13: Near the bed, on the wall between it and the lamp, is a panel.  The left side is locked.  (The right side probably controls the satellite dish.)
  • 6 of 13: You have the means to unlock the left side now.
  • 7 of 13: Use your new gold key on the lower left side of the panel.  The control inside opens and closes a section of the roof.  In the roof's current position, the room is dark.
  • 8 of 13: Click on the red knob once to let the sun shine in!  Back away.
  • 9 of 13: Near the rainbow tapestry, something on a small window is stopping the beam. Touch the red-hot piece of lead (another prize for your treasure box).
  • 10 of 13: Survey the changes.  The beam now bounces off of the door across from the bed, but it is still going the wrong way.  Reflect upon it.
  • 11 of 13: Close examination of the door panel reveals two prongs meant to hold an object.
  • 12 of 13: Insert the pyramid-shaped mirror (prism) onto the prongs.
  • 13 of 13: Return to examine the rainbow.  Grab the glowing object and the note containing your next clue.
