Rhem III SE New Area

Hi all,

Anyone playing Rhem III SE? I accessed the new area and immediately got stuck Since the game just came out there are no walkthroughs available, so I thought it might be fun to figure it out together from here.



Any help is appreciated!

I hope you will get some input about this from other players. It's been a long time since you've posted here - I hope all is well.

Thank you Marian I don't post here often but I read it all the time.

I think the number of gamers who attempt to finish a Rhem game the weekend it comes out is probably not very high, but I thought I would try my chances anyway

You can ignore my original post, I managed to beat the game! I am not going to delete this thread, if you are interested in hints regarding the new SE area, please post your questions here and I would be happy to help.

Thank you, Kemal! That is an excellent idea. I have no doubt you will get questions as more people get the game.

Congratulations on finishing the game, Kemal!

Thanks Marian It took me the whole weekend, but it was worth it!

Hi guys. I am playing RHEM 3 SE. I played the original RHEM 3 when it came out. Playing it again 10 years later brought back fond memories!! I recalled a lot of the game & forgot just as much. I finished the original part & got the black crystal. So my one & only question is...do i have to solve the optional extra puzzle or do i take the tram to go find the NEW AREA? My game is saved at this point & if i dont have to solve the optional puzzle i'd rather be on my way to new horizons!! THANKS!!

Hi Scotty,

You do not need to solve the optional puzzle from Rhem III First Edition to get to the new area of Rhem III SE.
Btw, solving the optional puzzle gives you an item for the tram to access a small additional area when using the tram to leave Rhem.
When you leave Rhem with the tram you must have completed the new area if you want to see solve everything. The game displays a warning
about this, so you cant make a bad choice by accident.

Also, the new area is not to be found by taking the tram, if I remember correctly.

Thank you Mike. I saved my game right before the the warning appears. i completed the original game just for the heck of it & now i"m back to my save & will begin my search for the new area tomorrow...(I hope?) I have NO clue where to begin looking but i look forward to the challenge. Thank you again buddy!!

You're welcome, Scotty Have fun with the new area, it is great. If you need a nudge how to find it, let me know, I would be glad to help

So....I'm at the rail car & the 4X4 panel with the red button in the center. This is the only RHEM game i've ever played but i learn fast & i know nothing is random or trial & erreo in RHEM. there's always a clue somewhere. I've searched for 2 evening now & pretty much came up empty. My only thought might be...the 4X4 16 yellow square puzzle on the 2nd floor near the drawbridge is the only thing I didn't solve in the original game & it bears resemblance to the 4X4 panel? I must be missing something?

Hey Mike. I figured out what i was missing & had to backtrack & find the 4 plates with the symbols but I solved the 4X4 panel puzzle & the sound puzzle & got the GREEN BUTTON. Stoped & saved there. Note to self...NEVER forget to document a clue in RHEM!! THANKS!!

Glad you got it Scotty!

Congrats for progressing, Scotty Let us know how it goes in the new area. As you probably already read, I found the puzzles there superb.

Found the new area & made my way in. Finally got to see what that 4X4 yellow square panel was all about!! Took a while & burnt some brain cells but got thru the 3 adjoining rooms, into the small living area, open a sliding stone wall & now at a panel with 4 number & buttons. I have been looking everywhere for a clue but can't find anything? Is there a clue & if so is it in the SE area or must I re enter RHEM? PLEASE NO SPOILER!! Just a very gentle hint. THANK YOU!!

Hopefully another player will be along soon to help you out, Scotty.

Believe it or not, Sotty, but you don't need to reenter the old Rhem area
Let me know if you would like bit more of a hint.

Hi Mike. Thanks for that info. I finished RHEM but i will say i was slightly un sure on my solving the final puzzle? When i came upon the 4 digit panel & began searching for clue, one of my 1st thoughts was what i seen/heard in the living quarters. The numbers i was using to solve the puzzle
, no matter how i applied them did not work.. Thats when i asked if i had to leave the SE area. After your reply I went back to my original thoughts & started again. I began using the 2 #s i was sure of & spent HOURS!! randomly trying combinations until it worked!! Still, after leaving RHEM i'm not so sure that was the proper way to solve that puzzle? I do plan to go back to the SE area & now that I know the correct sequence...look again LOVED my 1st trip thru RHEM. I will play another one in the series..RHEM 4 looks very intriguing? But I'm REALLY hoping the new MYST get released SOON!!!! THANK YOU agin my friend!! Stay well PEACE

Hi Scottry, congrats for completing the game. To answer your question, yes there is a proper way to solve that puzzle that does not
include guessing. If understood you correctly, you found the hints for two digits and I am pretty sure which ones you found.
The two others are harder to find. Accessing them was the only thing I did not like that much in Rhem III SE. Let me know if you want
a nudge where to look closer.

I am now obsessed with finding the last clue!! Spent the entire night looking for it & i left empty handed again. I made it thru RHEM with the help of a walkthrough only twice...Once when i walked aroubd FOREVER not knowing what to do because I never seen a hidden overhead trap door & once to understand what a ear ring had to do with a puzzle. LOL!! I cant believe this darn clue is bamboozaling me!! The SE area isnt that big!! As much as i hate to say it...NUDGE ME, before i go insane. BTW...My wife already thinks that!! LOL

Sorry I only read this post now. Do you still need a nudge, then here it is:

There are two places in the new area which are similar and where you can do a very similar/the same thing. But one of those places
behaves differently than the other. There you need to do something.

Let me know if that is not enough

:-)

Mike. My attention has been focused at the same location i got the 2 clues earlier. Am i at least correct on that assumption?

First let's make sure my assumption which clues you already got is correct. Plz tell me which clues you already found, then I will respond to your question.

Btw, I am from germany, so depending on when you post, you will get my reply only on the next day because of the different timezone ;I

So,, I re-read this thread and I am pretty sure you which clues are still missing. What I mentioned above with two similar places
is correct and it is not in the living quarters (= not in the small building with the piilars with buttons to be pressed etc) ;-)

A bit more of a nudge:



If you noticed the difference and don't know what to do here is more:



And finally, if you want to give up ;-)

Thank you my friend!! I agree 100% My least favorite puzzle in this adventure. Quite off character from anything else in RHEM I just thought it was a simple cut screen...nothing more But that being said, I enjoyed my 60 hours in my 1st trip to RHEM!! I do believe I will try my luck with RHEM 4 I live in the United States in Pennsylvania so our time difference is quite substantial!! Thank You again Mike. Stay safe & be well!! PEACE

You're welcome, Scotty. I highly recommend Rhem IV SE . Imo, it is the second best Rhem of the series and one of the best myst-like puzzle adventures of all time. Have fun playing it. I wish I had forgotten everything about the game and could play it again
