Nancy Drew: The Secret of the Old Clock Hints
I have four mirrors. Now what?
1 of 5: Put one in each clamp in the four corners of the room and pull the handle next to the domino puzzle to bring in the light.
2 of 5: As Nancy says, your goal here is to get the light to the radiometer at the center of the right wall. (It looks like a lightbulb in the overhead shot.)
3 of 5: The first mirror can't be moved, but all the others can be adjusted to change where the light goes. Bounce the light from one mirror to another until you reach the radiometer.
4 of 5: The first mirror, the one in the upper right corner, is the most important one. Did you notice that it can be aimed at more than one other mirror?
