Gilbert Goodmate and the Mushroom of Phungoria Hints

How can I get into the second cave?

  • 1 of 8: There is a slider-puzzle there.  Solve it!
  • 2 of 8: Some players do not like slider-puzzles and especially "timed" ones.  But this is a particularly easy 3 x 3 slider.
  • 3 of 8: When you complete the puzzle, the wall will rumble and open.
  • 4 of 8: The light from the fully charged glow-in-the-dark pal gets weaker and goes out after 180 seconds so you then have to recharge it.  However, the puzzle does not "rearrange" itself each time -- you can continue from where you left off.  You can even save any configuration "in the middle" and load it back again as was!
  • 5 of 8: Read ahead if you want to know what the picture on the puzzle is.
  • 6 of 8: The final picture is simply a full-screen upright mushroom.
  • 7 of 8: Most folk should be able to solve this puzzle, if not the very first time then after no more than a few attempts.
  • 8 of 8: Enter the second (middle) cave.
