Ring Hints

What should I do with the floating tiles?

  • 1 of 8: Try clicking on them.  Each tells part of a story.
  • 2 of 8: To make sense, the parts of the story must be told in order.
  • 3 of 8: There are five story tiles, but only four are present.  Insert the other tile to complete the group.
  • 4 of 8: Notice that each of the tiny tiles in the bottom square can be pushed.
  • 5 of 8: Once you have determined the correct story order, click the small bottom tiles in that order.
  • 6 of 8: A green light will appear on the control panel when you have done this correctly.
  • 7 of 8: Number the tiles 1 through 6 from left to right beginning with the top row. Then click the small tiles in this order: 3 1 5 4 2 6
  • 8 of 8: When the green light illuminates, insert the tile piece back into its slot by pushing the button again.
