Hi Nan,

Jeanne is right, those numbers are randomly selected each time you play the game. Those could be right in that they are in ascending order and between 1 and 25.

The sliders are all bunched up at the lower end of the scale which has marks indicating 1 to 25 with every fifth mark larger than the others. Begin by setting the last one to the highest (last) number of the code. Then set the next to the last, etc. When they are all set, push the button. They will all slide back to their home position and the dome will open or not depending on whether you used the right code.

Dee, you type faster than I do or you have that on file and just "copy and paste."

Hi Nan,

All the joy's of Riven. I spent an hour watching out of my cell window when inprisoned on the Tree Island. Lots of great sound and visuals.

There are four possibilities:

1.) You are missing the correct numbers when you enter them in the slider. This is easy to do. I once tried four times and still entered them wrong. It is hard to see the divisions of five.

2.) It is true that the numbers change every NEW game. But if you are working from an earlier savegame, they will not have changed. Won't hurt to return to the lab and double check.

3.) Those Rivenese numbers are tricky. Maybe you got one wrong. Double check!

4.) When you did the marble puzzle, you may have missedplaced one or more of them. Again, easy to make a mistake. If you have no power I don't think the dome will open (I could be wrong...). The sound that the power machine makes is hard to tell if it's on. ALSO, make sure you have pushed the white button after you set the marbles!

Let us know how you do...

Nan - be sure also you are counting correctly. The big lines are fives - 5, 10, 15, 20.

Stretching my memory here - there may not be a line for 25; so 24 is the rightmost possible slot.
