How do I solve the sliding rectangle puzzle?
1 of 6: The ultimate goal is to slide the gold rectangle to the right -- into the mouth of the dragon.
2 of 6: Since there are rectangular pieces blocking the path in front of the gold piece, it will be necessary to move those pieces out of the way. But to do that, some other pieces will need to be moved out of the way, and so on, and so on.
3 of 6: The vertical pieces can be moved up (right-click) or down (left-click), following the vertical tracks on the puzzle. These pieces cannot be moved left or right.
4 of 6: The horizontal pieces can be moved left (right-click) or right (left-click), following the horizontal tracks on the puzzle. These pieces cannot be moved up or down.
5 of 6: A piece can not be moved into a space already occupied by another piece.
6 of 6: It is helpful to plan ahead. Look at what needs to be moved to slide the gold piece to the right. Then look at what pieces will need to be moved to accomplish that (and what pieces need to be moved to do that, and so on, through the pieces) until you can see a specific plan emerge.
