Necronomicon: The Dawning of Darkness Hints
I don't understand the triangle panels!
1 of 6: When you first enter this area, explore a short distance into the corridor beyond the open left door. There is a sealed metal door on your right. Using these control panels correctly will unlock that door.
2 of 6: You will travel in a circle into 6 *almost* identical rooms. The first room is the only one with an exit door. If you look carefully, notice that each room has a slightly different carved stone pattern in the wall structure.
3 of 6: Pushing the triangles is easy, since only one in each room will work. Referring to the wall designs will help you decide which one will work. The green symbols that appear can help you keep track of which rooms you have completed. (In my game, the walls in one room were definitely wrong and a duplicate symbol appeared. I ignored that error and went on.)
4 of 6: When the right door opens each time, walk through it, following the next corridor to the next room. To keep from getting lost, always pick the same door.
5 of 6: Clue: Sketch the panel of triangles to help you with a later puzzle.
6 of 6: After you have finished the 6th panel and walked through the right door, the corridor leads you back to the sealed metal door you noticed earlier. The room you started from is ahead. The metal door will be open now on your left.
