Crypt Puzzle (Maze)
Hint 1 of 16:
There's really no way to give a straight solution to this puzzle, since
the initial conditions are randomly generated.
Hint 2 of 16:
I found that it was best to work on one coffin or group of coffins at a time
at the start of the puzzle, until I reached some kind of recognizable pattern
or order to the state of the lids. Trial and error is the only real
strategy here, at least when you're starting out.
Hint 3 of 16:
But if the above technique doesn't work for you, there is a definite
solution that will get you to the end. I should warn you first that the
solution I'm about to give is probably the *least* efficient. The only
advantage it has is that it's guaranteed to work. I recommend you try to
get to the end and turn only to these hints when you're hopelessly stuck.
Hint 4 of 16:
I've numbered the squares in this puzzle a bit differently from the systems
used in other solutions. The top row is numbered 1-3, left to right, the
middle row is 4-6, and the bottom row is 7-9.
Hint 5 of 16:
Each step tells you how to get a single coffin to flip. So a closed coffin
becomes open and vice-versa. The first number represents the coffin to
change, and each number afterwards tells you whether or not to click on
coffin #, listed in order from 1-9. 1 means that you should click on that
crypt, and 0 means that you shouldn't.
Hint 6 of 16:
Hint: there's a way to combine some of the steps below, but it may take a
while to explain, so in the interest of saving space, I've left it out. If
you're looking for a challenge, try to find it for yourself.
