Jewels of the Oracle II -- Gems of Darkness Hints

Arithmetic

  • 1 of 10: The object is to get all 6 pieces to match, and form a specific symbol.
  • 2 of 10: Play with the six pins to find out what each does.
  • 3 of 10: Note that each piece can be rotated clockwise or counter-clockwise, depending on where you press on the controlling pin.
  • 4 of 10: Most notably in the Easy mode, note how each pin controls one more wedge than the others.
  • 5 of 10: Using this information, get the sixth piece set first, then the fifth, then the fourth, and work backwards from there.
  • 6 of 10: When all six are correct, the handle on the right will produce the token that solves the puzzle.
  • 7 of 10: Three tokens are required to obtain a gem.
  • 8 of 10: In Easy mode, any three patterns can be used to obtain a token; in Hard mode, only three of the six possible patterns will result in a token.
  • 9 of 10: The clues for which three patterns to use in the Hard mode are located elsewhere in the game.
  • 10 of 10: Look in the Maze puzzle on Level 2, and the Logic Passage puzzle on Level 3 for these additional clues.
