Myst III: Exile Hints

How do the controls on the panel work?

  • 1 of 6: The left side of the console has a set of three levers that move left and right, and the right side has a lever that you can pull down.
  • 2 of 6: Look at the symbols next to the set of three levers for an idea about what they do.
  • 3 of 6: Pulling the levers moves the wheel under the metal channel.
  • 4 of 6: It only matters which lever you last clicked on.
  • 5 of 6: If you click on the top lever, the wheel moves to the left side of the channel.  The middle lever moves the wheel to the center of the channel.  The bottom lever moves the wheel to the right side.  When you click on a lever, it moves to the right to indicate that you clicked on it -- the other two levers will always be on the left.
  • 6 of 6: Pull down the lever on the right side of the console to start the puzzle.
