The 7th Guest Hints
Card Puzzle (Bedroom on Right)
1 of 13: Trial and error seems to be the best way to start with this puzzle. Try things that look good, and then modify your moves until you've flipped all of the cards. Don't forget that you can skip cards as described in the rules section.
2 of 13: I'm going to use the standard grid to describe the cards that I described at the start of this UHS file. The row at the top is "1" and the column on the left is "A".
3 of 13: In the first puzzle, try starting on D2. (The only card on the top row is C1 -- there are two columns to the left of it.)
4 of 13: You'll eventually want to jump over the card C2, so try looking for a solution that will let you do that.
5 of 13: And you'll need to jump over B3.
6 of 13: Then move to C2, B2, B3, B4, and C4.
7 of 13: D4, D3, E3, E5, and A5.
8 of 13: A3, C3, and C1 to finish.
9 of 13: Now on to the second puzzle. You don't need to jump over any cards -- just over empty spaces -- to solve this one (although you probably can jump over the cards if you want to).
