Karma: Curse of the 12 Caves Hints
Rhythms in the Wind
1 of 16: Rhythms in the Wind is a puzzle of auditory recognition.
2 of 16: Have you ever played the game "Simon"?
3 of 16: Listen to the entire introduction.
4 of 16: The puzzle begins after you hear a gong strike.

10 of 16: Each puzzle segment you get incorrect adds a gargoyle.
11 of 16: Filling the column terminates the puzzle.
12 of 16: The puzzle will be solved when you have cleared the column of all gargoyles.
13 of 16: Try making some identification between the original six sounds and a simpler memory scheme -- such as numbering.

15 of 16: When puzzle segments are played, remember them by your numbering scheme (e.g., 1, 5, 2, 3).
16 of 16: The sequences are random, so there is no fixed solution. You'll have to listen carefully.
