The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Hints
How do I solve the puzzle with the four flip switches?
1 of 6: The solution is actually written clearly in the room you just came out of.
2 of 6: Head to the south of it, and you will see the order to flip the switches written on a poster.
3 of 6: Flip them in this order:
4 of 6: LOWER-LEFT, UPPER-RIGHT, UPPER-LEFT, LOWER-RIGHT.
5 of 6: Just remember that in order to do this, you will need to hit all four in one swing of the boomerang, so draw the line to each of the four switches in one motion.
6 of 6: After you have flipped them, use the boomerang again to grab the key.
