Zork III: The Dungeon Master Hints
I've entered the Royal Puzzle, but I can't go anywhere!
1 of 6: Take a look at the walls.
2 of 6: Pay attention to what they're made of.
3 of 6: Sandstone is a fairly light material.
4 of 6: You can push it.
5 of 6: Push either the east or south wall, and you will be able to move around a bit and explore. I'd recommend saving before you push a wall, though, since it's possible to get yourself into an impossible situation from which there's no way to get out.
6 of 6: You can also push any of the other sandstone walls down here, as long as there's nothing behind the sandstone.
