Zork Nemesis Hints
How do I open the second door?
1 of 11: There was a slight hint in one of the notes in Kaine's bedroom.
2 of 11: It was the one that started out "5 brave fellows..."
3 of 11: Now that you've found this door, you've seen five knights guarding five doors.
4 of 11: You need to figure out which of the five are blind and which can see.
5 of 11: The tapestries hanging in this room tell you which ones.
6 of 11: The knights depicted on those tapestries are similar to the five around the castle.
7 of 11: What might restrict a knight's vision?
8 of 11: His visor.
9 of 11: Match the position of the visors (up or down) to the positions shown on the tapestry. Once you do this, the door will open.
10 of 11: The exact positions are given in the next hint.
11 of 11: Knight in this room (weapons gallery): visor down. Knight immediately outside this room: visor down. Other knight on ground floor: visor up. Knight outside General Kaine's bedroom: visor down. Knight outside Lucien Kaine's bedroom: visor up.
