Schizm Hints

How do I solve this puzzle?

  • 1 of 6: See if you can determine which dials do what.
  • 2 of 6: Depending on which dial you use, the object is either thrown to the next "tulip", or to a tulip that is two or three tulips down the row.
  • 3 of 6: The dials with three triangles-shaped notches around them throw the object three spaces.  The dials with two notches throw the object two spaces.  And, obviously, the dial with one notch throws the object to the adjacent "tulip".
  • 4 of 6: Note that sometimes the object is thrown forwards, and sometimes it is thrown backwards.  Can you find a pattern to the direction?
  • 5 of 6: The pattern depends *almost* entirely on which tulip is currently holding the object.
  • 6 of 6: Number the dials from left to right as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, then click on them in the following order: 4, 2, 3, 1, 5.  This should result in the object landing in the closest bulb.  Other solutions also will work as well.
