Cannot solve this puzzle. Would appreciate a picture or a hint.

Hi Marji,

The aim of this puzzle is to arrange the tiles so that they create a solid black line from the lower left corner to the upper right. Here are the first few directions for arranging the path of the black line, which will hopefully help:

-- Move from bottom left square to adjacent upper right square.
-- Move down from that square.
-- Move right from that square, then right again. You are now at bottom right corner.
-- Move to adjacent upper left square.
-- Move left.

See how you get on with the other squares.

I was stuck at the same puzzle, I managed to complete using your initial steps given above. Thanks.

Glad it helped.

Either I am dense or unable to understand and follow directions but I cannot get it to work.I need more help if that is posssible.
Thanks

Bear with me, Marji, I'll get an image of the completed puzzle and e-mail it across to you in the next 10 minutes.

Edit: The e-mail was returned as undeliverable. Perhaps you could check the address in the public e-mail box of your profile and let us know if it's changed?

Sorry, that's an old address. I have changed it in the public profile.

Thanks. Re-sending now.

Got it. Thanks so much! I really like this game and now I'll be able to finish it-hopefully without needing more help.

You're welcome. We're always here if you need any further help.

I am at the trap door but I only have 3 pegs and I'm sure there were 4 but one disappeared.I read somewhere on this forum that there is another set in the bucket in the boiler room. But I can't click on the bucket. I am so far along in the game I can't go way back to get them again from the office.Looks like I won't be able to finish the game. Any suggestions?

Marji,

I merged your new thread-post with your older thread. Please use one thread per game. Thanks.

I checked the Companion - it states and I quote:
if you don't have the pegs, go back to the theatre office and grab them.; they are on Todd Wickerman's desk.

Please check there and see.

I can't go back to the office the stairs are blocked.

I tried reading the companion to find a way back since it hints that you can go back and bypass that blocked door. There's a mention of a ladder. Does that ladder make a difference.

I have not played the game - if you still can;t find a way around to the office - let's wait for someone familiar with the game.

The ladder goes up to the trapdoor so that doesn't work. Also I went back to a save just before the blocked stairs and looked in the office and the pegs aren't there. I had gotten the 4 pegs early in the game and one disappeared so now I only have 3 and I need 4 to solve the puzzle. I'm out of luck. Hope someone who's played the game can help.

Let's wait.

Marji,

It's weird that you only have 3 pegs instead of 4, as none of them should ever disappear. This sounds like a weird bug. I apologize for the inconvinience!

Could you e-mail me your saved game? I can fix it for you and send it back so you can complete the game.

Please e-mail your save to info at unimatrixproductions dot com.

Thanks, Chris!

I have the 4 pegs and solved the puzzle-that is all the lines lit up- but nothing happens.The trap door doesn't open. What am I doing wrong.

Are you getting an active cursor on the trap door, or nothing at all? Double check that all the lines are lit -- there's a horizontal line across the very bottom that might be easy to miss.

The guide says (for after the trapdoor is successfully unlocked):
"Might as well go through it [...] or, you can go back up the basement stairs. It doesn't really matter, so long as you end up backstage."

Keep us posted.

Yes I did miss that bottom line. I can't believe I didn't spot it.
Thanks!

Glad you found what the problem was.
