How do I solve this puzzle?
1 of 13: The masks must be reorganized correctly to beat this puzzle.
2 of 13: When you have correctly organized them, they will stop laughing at you.
3 of 13: There are several possible solutions to this puzzle.
4 of 13: It is not the order of the masks from left to right that is important, but rather which masks are next to each other.
5 of 13: Examine each mask closely.
6 of 13: Do any of the masks look similar to any others?
7 of 13: Specifically, are there any features that you can recognize that are identical in two of the masks?
8 of 13: Such as same eyes, have horns, same hair, etc.?
9 of 13: You must determine which masks have a common feature with another mask.
10 of 13: The masks must be arranged such that each one is adjacent to another with at least one identical feature.
11 of 13: For example: #1 has Big Eyes, #2 has Big eyes, spiky hair; #3 has Spiky hair, long nose, #4 has Long nose, pointed ears, etc.
12 of 13: When you get the entire sequence in the correct order, the masks will stop laughing and turn sideways, then dissolve into a picture of 4 mask faces on different colored backgrounds.
13 of 13: Make a note of these 4 faces and background colors! You will need this information later in the game.
