The Secret Files: Tunguska Hints

How can I solve the puzzle with these coins in Vladimir's office?

  • 1 of 10: The first thing you're going to need to do is find the coin. It's in Max's office with the other Room 8 artifacts, if you've not solved the diadem puzzle yet, you need to do that first.
  • 2 of 10: Once you have the extra coin, go back to the puzzle and put the coin in the blank space.
  • 3 of 10: The note at the top-right is a clue on how to solve the puzzle.
  • 4 of 10: It works similarly to a Sudoku puzzle.
  • 5 of 10: The coins must be arranged so that the same type of coin is not featured twice in any row, column, or either of the main diagonal directions.
  • 6 of 10: There are four types of coin, which I will refer to as:
    S = Silver (with the Queen's head on)
    B = Bronze (the smallest ones)
    T = Ten (with the number 10 on it)
    G = Gold (like the one you put in)
  • 7 of 10: Start by putting the first row as B S T G.
  • 8 of 10: The second row is G T S B.
  • 9 of 10: The third is S B G T.
  • 10 of 10: And the bottom row is T G B S.
