Jewels of the Oracle II -- Gems of Darkness Hints

Mazes Numerical

  • 1 of 7: The object of this puzzle is to move from the "start" position to the "end" position by clicking on intervening blocks.
  • 2 of 7: You cannot click on every block.
  • 3 of 7: Find out if there is a pattern to which blocks you are allowed to click on.
  • 4 of 7: Have you ever played hopscotch?
  • 5 of 7: The key is that you can only move horizontally or vertically the exact number of blocks that matches the number you are currently on.
  • 6 of 7: Avoid the "square of threes" in the middle of the puzzle.  This is a 3x3 square, where all corners show a "3".  There is no exit from this.
  • 7 of 7: As in all such puzzles, try mentally visualizing the reverse path.  That is, start from the end, and work backwards.
