Return To Mysterious Island 2: Mina's Fate Hints

How can I get the language machine working?

  • 1 of 7: You need to form a sentence. Listen to the words stored within each of the blue shapes, and place them at different places in the machine until they form something intelligible.
  • 2 of 7: Through some quick elimination, you should discover the sentence fairly quickly, it's as follows:
  • 3 of 7: "He who has intelligence will discern the known in the unknown and understand how much the other is like him."
  • 4 of 7: But, as G.I. Joe once said, knowing is only half the battle. We now need to position each of those blue shapes in the right places to make that freaky alien voice coherent.
  • 5 of 7: It's time for some more trial and elimination -- the top-right area of the screen shows the number of shapes that are positioned correctly.
  • 6 of 7: If you label the columns A to I, from left to right, and the rows from 1 to 7, from to bottom, whack the right shapes in as follows:
  • 7 of 7: A1, C1, D1, E3, G3, H3, B5, C6, I6, F7, G7.
