The 7th Guest Hints
Altar Maze (Chapel)
1 of 7: I found that it helps to work backwards on this puzzle. There is only one stone that you can stand on just before landing on the green arrow.
2 of 7: It's the purple square two or three steps from the arrow. You might have to take a twisted path to get from that purple to the arrow, but it's the only path you can take.
3 of 7: Then look for other purple squares 3 steps from the last purple or for yellow squares 2 steps away or blue squares 1 step away. Keep working until you reach the starting square.
4 of 7: Here comes one path that gets you to the end. There appear to be several winning solutions.
5 of 7: I'm labelling both the direction that you need to move and the colors of the squares. The square directly above the one you're standing on is called 1 and each of the other 5 possible directions are numbered in clockwise order.
6 of 7: Start 2 -> P 2 -> Y 2 -> P 2 -> Y 2 -> P 1
