REAH Hints

The Wheel Puzzle

  • 1 of 13: Through the glass door you will find a large wheel, a square block and a round pillar -- all made of stone.
  • 2 of 13: The pillar has a small hole in it.
  • 3 of 13: The cripple beggar has something that will fit into the hole.
  • 4 of 13: Insert the crutch you got from the cripple.
  • 5 of 13: To activate the puzzle, press the green arrow.
  • 6 of 13: You will see 8 very similar symbols on the block.  A further set of similar symbols are on the large stone wheel.  By turning the wheel, a different symbol will line-up with the arrow.  You obviously need to find the correct symbol to line-up.
  • 7 of 13: Study the symbols carefully -- although those on the wheel also seem to appear on the block, they are not quite the same.
  • 8 of 13: Only one of the symbols on the wheel actually appears on the block.  This is the correct symbol to line-up with the arrow.
  • 9 of 13: Repeat the process 4 times -- there will be a different set of symbols each time.  NOTE: With the last (fourth) set of symbols you will again have to resort to "trial and error".
  • 10 of 13: Listen closely to what the alchemist has to say -- it's a clue to what you have achieved.
  • 11 of 13: Did you notice a locked door elsewhere in the temple?
  • 12 of 13: It's on your left in the area before you climbed the stairs to get to the cripple beggar.
  • 13 of 13: The door is now unlocked.
