Rhem 4 Hints

Is there something special about the balls that fall?

  • 1 of 6: There's a special ball you need.
  • 2 of 6: Reset the mechanism with the button on the right panel when you're standing exactly at the silo, then let balls fall and see.
  • 3 of 6: Ball 15 flushes ball 14. Therefore you have to make sure that a dropping sequence ends with ball 14.
  • 4 of 6: You learned how to control how many balls fall before.
  • 5 of 6: You have to either choose a number that has 14 as the sum of the digits, or else choose lower numbers so that you can add the sums to 14 (e.g.  first a 14, which makes 5 balls, for two runs -- and then a 22, for the last 4 balls).
  • 6 of 6: OK, "choosing" is the wrong word, as you have to generate random numbers until one fits your needs...
