The Forgotten I: It Begins Hints

What is the solution to the Stone Tile Puzzle?

  • 1 of 9: The symbols on the stones should look a little familiar if you have examined everything in the room.
  • 2 of 9: Did you examine the bowl of water?
  • 3 of 9: The stones should be pressed in the order shown around the bowl from bottom to top.  The "tiles" around the water bowl are not easy to see, but portions of their symbols can be made out if you look carefully.
  • 4 of 9: When you start, only one stone tile can be pushed in and will stay depressed. Try pressing in another one.  If you make a mistake, the puzzle will reset itself.
  • 5 of 9: It will help to number the tiles clockwise from 1 through 6 beginning with the very top stone.  Number 7 is in the middle.
  • 6 of 9: The first one you can push is the 4 stone followed by the center one, number 7.
  • 7 of 9: The third stone to depress is number 5 and so on.
  • 8 of 9: You should be able to get the rest on your own, but keep reading if you need more help.
  • 9 of 9: Using the numbering technique above, press them in this order: 4, 7, 5, 6, 3, 2, 1
