Nancy Drew 28: Ghost of Thornton Hall Hints

  • Number the tiles like this:

    1  2  3  4
    5  6  7  8
    9  10 11 12
    13 14 15 16

    The blank space starts at 16 and ends up at 10. Move the tiles in this order, which I've split into groups to make it easier to keep your place:

    15 - 11  - 12 - 16 -    15 - 14 - 13 - 9 - 5 - 1
    2 - 6 - 5 - 1 -         2 - 6 - 10 - 9 - 5
    6 - 10 - 14 - 13 -    9 - 10 - 11 - 12 - 8

    7 - 6 - 10 - 11 -     7 - 6 - 5 - 1 - 2
    6 - 7 - 3 - 2 -     6 - 5 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4
    8 - 7 - 6 - 10 -    11 - 12 - 8 - 7

    6 - 2 - 3 - 4 -     8 - 12 - 16 - 15 - 14
    10 - 9 - 13 - 14 -     10 - 11 - 7 - 6 - 5
    9 - 13 - 14 - 10 -     9 - 5 - 6 - 10 -     9 - 13 - 14 - 10

    When you get done, check to make sure all the switches along the edges line up with slots. If not, you made a mistake somewhere along the way. You can either try to correct it yourself -- or click on "Reset All" and start again.
