The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I solve the alarm-fixing puzzle?
1 of 5: It's mainly a matter of timing, as well as moving around the stationary metal bars.
2 of 5: The easiest way is to move from the starting position up to the innermost ring, then rotate to the right until you can enter the central circle.
3 of 5: The gold bar that rotates around the innermost ring is very slow, so wait and watch until it's at the bottom of that ring.
4 of 5: Quickly move up a ring, rotate to the left or right once, then move forward to the innermost ring as fast as you can. If you get hit by a gold bar, wait for the innermost ring's gold bar to get back to the bottom of its ring, then try again.
5 of 5: Once you make it to the innermost ring, quickly rotate to the right until you can move forward to enter the central circle's slot, which will solve the puzzle.
