RHEM Hints

How can I figure out what shapes to set each screen to?

  • 1 of 13: There's a diagram with a partial answer on it hidden in a bottle somewhere in the pentangle complex region.
  • 2 of 13: Specifically, the bottle is in the brick building that's south of the monorail's southern station and west of the big round pillar.
  • 3 of 13: First, figure out how to raise the bridge in that building.
  • 4 of 13: Then figure out how to get past the locked gate that's down on the building's lower floor.
  • 5 of 13: After you go through the gate, you'll find a handle that opens a drain at the base of the well-like brick structure.
  • 6 of 13: Open the well's drain, then go back and yank the water pump lever yet again to flood the area once more.
  • 7 of 13: Return and cross the bridge to find a bottle floating at the top of the now-flooded well.
  • 8 of 13: Click on the bottle and then on its cork in the close-up.
  • 9 of 13: That's the diagram I was telling you about. Notice that it has three squares drawn next to each of the four non-door sides of the pentagon building.
  • 10 of 13: Each square is either solid black or solid white. Where have you seen anything that might relate such squares to the kinds of shapes that the pentagon building's screens show?
  • 11 of 13: The simulation panel on the top floor of the Four Way Tower is the other part of the puzzle. See the tower's hints for details on how to get to its upper room if you haven't already.
  • 12 of 13: So now use the simulation panel's info to translate the black and white squares on the bottle's diagram into a set of shapes to be entered on each of the pentagon building's screens.
  • 13 of 13: If you're having too much trouble getting it all correlated, check out the graphic below to see a sketch of the bottle's diagram with the shapes put in place of the black and white squares. (Note that there's also compass directions provided so you can orient it according to the area map.)
