I'm playing an old game published by Nemopolis in 2008 called "The Vulture: An Investigation in Paris Under Napoleonic Rule", and I'm stuck on a puzzle in Les Invalides, where you have to locate a captured Prussian sword that is hidden there. The puzzle is a 12-letter scrambled word puzzle that will tell you where the sword is hidden. The letters are: "C", "A", "L", "C", "E", "S", "O", "N", "S", "P", "L", "R". The letters are in a circle and you must click on them one-at-a-time, and they move to the center of the puzzle where you spell out the clue. There is no walkthrough for this game anywhere that I could find, and there are no hints for the puzzle. Any help would be appreciated, as I would like to finish the game. (Hope I posted this in the correct place, and thanks in advance.)

You might get help by writing to Akella and see what they have to day. Hope you get help.

I never got any help from Akella, but I did find a review of the game in German (which I can't read). It is here: http://www.adventure-archiv.com/t/vulturereviewd.htm and if you look on the right-hand side of the page, and go down to the 14th picture, you will see the puzzle I'm stuck on. You have to click on each letter one-at-a-time, and it appears in the middle of the circle. If anyone can help please let me know. Thanks, Call1e

A stab in the dark - Is there a known prison in the game? Those Ls you wrote looks like Is on the image to me.

Hi Call1e, MaG's post above is just a congratulatory "bravo" smiley, for your having solved the puzzle.

The best I can do is to post a picture of a spade at this link: http://ts3.mm.bing.net/th?id=HN.608001824004769934&pid=15.1&w=110&h=114&p=0Right next to it with no symbols is a picture of an old-fashioned pushchair (baby carriage) here: http://www.dreamstime.com/royalty-free-stock-image-baby-coach-image18896416After the baby carriage picture it has (-hchair) Under the spade picture on the game is a blank box which I need the answer to. Under the baby carriage picture I have typed in the word "pus" in the box, which is correct because the computer made a sound to let me know the answer is correct. I just need to know what the spade picture is. I've tried "spade", "ace", "shovel", "black spade" and none are correct. I would appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks, Call1e
