3. Go up the ladder, then up the stairs. Take another crate which has good in it. Then leave the ship.

    where is the rest of the walkthrough?

      1. Tina

        Emerald must be in the box on the ship. I can’t crack the color wheel code to unlock it.

        1. AppUnwrapper

          The emerald figurine is in the box in the ship, but another item is needed to open it (from the plant in the lighthouse). I haven’t figured out that puzzle yet.

      2. hassan

        I made it…i figured out the way to do it…its a bit hard and tricky but easy when u find out how to do it 😀

      3. cheryl

      The same thing happened to me. Go through his entire conversation and you will get the sanctuary key at the end.

  4. Pammikans

    I need help with the cavern columns…

  5. Kirsty

    How do you solve the puzzle with the wheel at the top of the ship I’m guessing it’s to do with the green emerald …. Half a walkthrough isn’t a walkthrough

    1. Tina

      Green gem on top. Spin the dial so that blue is right under it. You also need the topaz and the other wheel is green gem on top and purple under it.

  6. ellylond

    I just went through the pillars. You basically need to write down/ remember the patterns on the slabs and put them together on the pillars – in correct order. Start with the right side – do it on the pillars. Then it will open to show you ‘arrows’ like the ones on pillars with colours. You rotate the colours till they match the pattern from the left slab. This one opens and you rotate the arrow inside – to put it upside down. Then you match the pattern from the middle slab by moving the stuff on the pillars – remember to again swap the colours on the right one to match the combination on the central one. Then you go in:)

    1. AppUnwrapper

      Thanks, I already got through that part, just haven’t had a chance to work on the walkthrough.

      1. dave wilders

        im stuck on the tower puzzle the 3 symbols that need to change to open the tower door please help

      2. dave wilders

      3. Benito

        Please update, the pillar puzzle by the tower is driving me crazy.
        Cheers

    2. michel

      This isn’t working! I’m not able to open the middle door no matter what I do. The pillars are correct and the right and left doors opened no problem. ideas anyone?

      1. daddy

        U need to change jewels behind 1st door to match those on the3rd door as well as turning dial behind 2nd door b4 matching symbols

    3. eileen

      My door on right have3 arrows but the are right left upper can’t make it turn so it is left right lower. Did I make any sence

  7. Brad

    I’m really stuck now, ive done all of the above no problem and am now confronted with 2 puzzles, one is a statue of a lady with switches behind and the other is a stone circle with posts around, some combination is required for both but i have no idea how to get past them snd where to find clues, ive been trying for the last day but no luck

    1. Tina

      The statue needs an amulet to activate the switches. The amulet is in the tower and the door needs four red gems to open. Check the hint section in the game. If you can figure it out , please write it here. I’ve read it twice and can’t active the blue lines

  8. Tina

    Another area lies to the left of the stone circle with 3 pillars.
    Its the tower. It has 4 pillars and a locked door with red gems. There’s an elevator in the tower and you need the bone and the belt to use the elevator to get the amulet. But I still can’t unlock the door.

    1. mary

      No consigo resolver los pilares de la torre. Hay marcas en los cuatro pilares de la torre que no hay en los tres pilares. Hay señales en los círculos exteriores y en los tres pilares junto el interruptor no existen.Por favor ayuda. Me ha costado mucho encontrar esta página.

  9. Chrisliffe

    Each of the 4 small pillars in front of the tower has a code on. You need to set each code seperately and then go through to the tower and activate the pillar. When all 4 are done the tower door will open

    1. ellylond

      But how do you activate them? I am trying and I think I have the combinations right but nothing shows to activate…

  10. Brad

    I have managed to turn each of the pillars around the circle on and also activate the back left pillar in front of the tower door, unfortunately i don’t know how i did it. Ive tried matching them up but not having any luck. At present i have 3 blue lines on the stone circle and one white line that i can move

  11. Brad

    Ive cracked it, look at 1 of the 4 pillars and note blue line positions, find which of the 3 pillars indicates them 2 lines, 1 at a time put the white line that correponds to the blue in the correct position in stone circle, when in position go to whichever of the 3 pillars you got the position from and activate the pillar by pressing the button, red light will come on, repeat this for the 2nd blue line, both should now be highlighted in the circle, if correct you can activate whichever of the 4 pillars, repeat this gor each, you have to reset stone circle each time, ver confusing?? yes

  12. Brad

    Poor ending

  13. ellylond

    My problem is that I can’t activate the circles at all. I assume it shoud be activated with the lever. I do that but nothing happens so I don’t see any blue or white lines on the big circles… 🙁

  14. Brad

    Press the middle of circle to get white line, you only get blue line if you put white in correct place and activate the correct pillar around the circle, each white pos corresponds with a blue

  15. Tina

    Ok. I have activated all 3 red lights on the 3 stone pillars. And the door still didn’t open. What step am I missing.

  16. Brad

    You need to match the blue lines in the circle to each of the 4 pillars 1 at a time, look at the pairs on the 3 pillars, each white line represents a blue (its pair), copy the white line pos in the circle, activate the pillar you copied and the blue 1 will also appear in the circle,you need to do this twice so the 2 blue lines match 1 of the patterns on the 4 pillars, if its correct that pillar will activate snd you will have 1 red light around door, repeat for each pillar, you need to reset circle with lever each time to clear rhe blue lines

  17. HORROCKS

    Well, I made it up the lift to the top of the tower. I opened the book, touched the last page and……… “Directed by …..” screen appears them then graphic for the menu … Them the game hangs! Is that it? Have I finished? I rebooted, got the game back at the “top of tower” stage. I looked at the hints (first visit) and there don’t seem to be any beyond where I am. I guess I have finished it but it is a poor ending to an otherwise great game.

  18. Brad

    Exactly the same ending as i got, including the game hanging, really poor considerin the effort to get there

  19. Tina

    Thanks Brad, that tower door was a headache. Wish the ending was different but I’d get the next Cryptic adventure.

  20. ellylond

    How do you use the knobs behind the statue to move the slabs in the church?

  21. Tina

    For the puzzle behind the statue wearing the amulet. (she must be wearing the amulet) select the symbol in the middle – the one with four legs activate the left knob. The one with two arms -activate the top center knob. And the last one activate the right knob. You’re almost done.

    1. S

      I dont get it to work? I do as you Say..

  22. Gorzecho

    This is gonna sound lame, but For the puzzle in step #28, is the recent UPDATE required to get it to work?

    I only ask because me and my friends decided to give something up for LENT and I chose UPDATING/BUYING apps (except for Sunday, but I’ve only chosen to BUY apps, so I don’t feel like I’m cheating too much).

  23. Tina

    I don’t think so. When you walk through the stone entrance- look at the diagram above it. There’s a red line a large V shape – 4 symbols an upside down V and a blue line. Make the puzzle look like that. Use the lights to form the V’s.

    1. S

      I need help With the #28.. Ive read the comments in it but i dosent work? What am i doin wrong?

      1. Sssith

        I have the same problem.

        I had things looking like the pattern over the door but nothing happened.

        Looked at the hint in game and it seems to indicate that I was doing things correctly.

        One difference that doesn’t make sense is the red and blue line. The puzzle only has red and blue circles. I moved the red one to the top and used it on the right most symbol to make it stay close. The blue one did the same thing on bottom left.

        Not sure what is being done incorrectly.

  24. Red

    I followed the instruction to open the three doors, when I got to do the middle be, I turned the left arrow upside down as instructed, but it kept pointing down, is there any instruction I missed. I restarted the whole Mae four times, result s tge same, I give up, I spent so much time on thus crap crap game with no skip button, it sucks

    1. Loopy

      I’m stuck at this stage too – got to the 3 pillars with the doors, did the right one, arranged the colours, did the left one and turned the arrow, lined up the pillars for the middle door and can’t open it. I checked on the right and left door again and sure enough, the arrow has changed position on the left one. Can’t get any further. Pressing the delete button for this game I’m afraid. 🙁

    2. Evy167

      You have to re-arrange the colors on the first (right door) again, so the order on the pillar marks match the order of them on the middle door. The walkthrough did not specify that, but changing colors on that first door will switch pillars positions. The middle door will open then. I got stuck there too, but then figured it out.

  25. Jason

    Please help
    I’ve been with you guys and girls through out
    But I can’t get the middle slab to open I’ve done
    The right and left fine but well stuck now

    1. Red

      I managed to get the middle door opened, didn’t know what I did, but all. Saw is just white light. I reloaded the game, managed to get through the door, but now got stuck in the three pillars ( was said to have four pillars, but I only saw three) and the circle.

      1. Tina

        When you’re looking at the stone circle (lever is on the right side of the screen). There’s another screen to the left. It has a set of 4 pillars and the tower.

        1. Red

          I managed to go inside the tower, I put the bone and the belt on those gears, but nothing happened. I got stuck again.

  26. Red

    I did it, yea, I didn’t like how it ended, thanks for the tips guys

  27. Aaron

    I got the amulet and put it on then I opened the first slab but when I went back to the statue I came here for help cuz I couldn’t get the other slab and when I came back the amulet was gone and now I can’t find it. How do I get it back

    1. ellylond

      I have exactly same problem. Where is the amulet????

      Can somebody tell me how to use the knobs behind the statue correctly? If I turn the right one, left one flips back, same for all the other combinations. I only managed to move the right slab at one point, then nothing…

      Cheers

  28. lori

    How do I solve the temple puzzle. Been working on it for two days. Your walkthrough says you solved it nut you didn’t know how you did it. HELP!

  29. Sue

    I’m really stuck with the columns. I’ve tried every combination yet still can’t open the tower door. Can someone please explain how it’s done. Once I line up one blue line I then try to line up the other but it only shows me the blue and white line I’ve just done. Help!!!!

  30. Rob

    Ok. Need help with the columns. Don’t understAnd how the puzzlE works at all. Is the lever supposed to be up or down? I need someone to explain it in simple terms . Please help

  31. Minx

    Step 13 Go upstairs and talk to the Watcher. Trade him the 30 gold for a ring.

    I’ve been through this over and over and I still only have 25 gold at this point, am I missing something?

    1. AppUnwrapper

      The crate above the bar is easy to miss.
      Did you get that one?

  32. Kathryn

    Thanks everyone, finally managed to get through the four pillars and into the tower. Also managed to work out the levers behind the statue. You need to change the symbol to the block you wish to move and then just move one lever depending if you wish to move that block up, right or left. I found each block only required one lever to be moved. Hope this helps. Can anyone tell me though why I needed the goggles. Did I miss something?

    1. Josh

      You needed them in the elevator.

    2. Gemma Hudson

      How and where did you get the goggles from ?? I can’t get up the tower elevator with out them :/ please help

      1. Monicq

        I’m stuck on the same bit can’t find goggles even though I have solved the slab puzzle, if you find out how please write here thanks

    3. ellylond

      change what symbol? where?

  33. Loopy

    So I managed to get through the 3 doors and now I’m stuck with the circular puzzle with the yellow and blue lines and the 3 column switches and the four columns in front of the tower. Can someone please help?

  34. Cherry

    Tower puzzle:
    3 pillars + the one with the level you put in.

    Each pillar has symbols, if you click on the symbols you will see that that each pillar has 2 sets of symbols.

    after activate the wheel, whenever you click on the wheel an different section of the wheel is light up yellow\white. keep hitting it and you will see that it goes all the way around the wheel landing in different spots.

    now click to the left of the screen (while looking at the 4 pillars and the wheel) you will see the tower and 4 other pillars in front of it. Each one has its own symbol, but if you look closely you will notice that they all have a BLUE lines, just in diff positions.

    OK now back to the wheel.

    Pillar 1 the one that is on far left.
    When you look at the symbols all it is basically saying is that if you go to the wheel and light up the section that corresponds to the symbols white\yellow light and press the button under it. that the corresponding blue light will light up on the wheel.

    For example: Pillar 1. Tap the pillar until you have selected the set of symbols which shows a Straight white\yellow line pointing down and a Blue one pointing up. Go to the wheel and keep tapping it until the white\yellow light is pointing straight down starting (from the core of the circle not the outer ring) just like in the Pillar you just looked at. Now go back to Pillar 1 and press the button under the symbol. Red light lights up. Now go back to the wheel.. you will notice that a blue light has been uncovered and it is pointing in the same direction that the symbol in pillar 1 shows. Straight up. So with that done, all you have to do is replicate the blue lines with the BLUE line symbols in the other screen.

    It is a lot of going back and forth.

    So, all you have to do is write down and or remember the pillars with ALL BLUE lights in other screen and replicate them on the wheel.

    note: you can only do on pillar at a time (only 2 blue lines at one time)
    after you figure out the first one the rest are easy.

    I know this sounds confusing to some but it is the best way I can explain. Sorry if i confused you even more 🙂

    Ending SUCKS!

    1. Sissy

      Hi, your instructions have really helped me and I now have two lines showing on the stone circle one yellow and one blue and the red light is on the pillar. I then reset the the stone and do it again in the other position, I am missing something however, I am unclear what the 4 other pillars have to do with this? Can you explain it is driving me insane. I do not at any point have two blue lines showing in the stone circle like on the 4 pillars, is that what I am missing? The 4 pillars are not activated.

    I’m stuck at the pillars in the caverns, I can’t get the middle door oppened. 🙁
    I’ve been trying for a week now, any advice?

  39. KB

    Start with the wall on the right: match what you see on the wall with the columns…once that’s done go back to the same wall and it will open revealing some colors which represent the columns.

    Now go the wall on the left of the screen… in order to replicate the order of the symbols you see you will need to shuffle around the contents of what you uncovered in the wall on the right.

    Right wall starts you off; right wall helps you solve left wall and left wall helps you solve middle wall.

    Good luck

  40. KB

    So I did an update for the game and now at the end of reading the book in the tower there is a key in the book.

    Take the key and after a while i found where it goes. go to the building where the stone tablets are (same place you found the bone) on the right hand side there is a door, tap it. use the key to open it.

    now you are in a room with gold and other tresures. you get the breakdown of the full story of the island. then it ends.

    ending still sucks
    game could of been longer.

    does anyone know of similar games like this?

  41. Holly

    Hey guys! I’m really confused, I’ve got up to the elvevator in the tower with the belt an the bone I’ve got the goggle and still I can’t get up to the tower. Am I missing something very obvious? Please help. Thanks.

    1. KB

      So you put the Bone where it goes and the belt?
      if so, leave the room. come back in to the room, tap on the elevator (round bottom piece, the floor) it should take you up.

      once up stairs tap on the book

  42. Monicq

    How do I get the goggles? I have done the slabs but there is no goggles please help! Thank you

  43. Nik

    I can’t get through the temple puzzle…please help!

    1. Julia

      I can’t get through it either. Iit worked fine the first time but when I tried to replay the game, it stuck. Three times through. So I deleted the game. Paid for it again and played to the temple door, and it stuck again. Is this a software problem. Please fix it.

  44. KB

    Sorry, I forgot how I got the googles 🙁

    And the temple door – I totally just played with it for a good 30 min or so and I discovered it. sorry cant help in that part either.

  45. Sherie

    I am stuck on the puzzle in the temple. The walk through says that you did it but don’t know how. The rest of you have obviously got through this so can one of you please explain how it works please.

    1. nessa

      I emailed the game designer and he gave me the answer for the temple door. Following these instructions I got it first pop….

      For this puzzle, take note of the symbols and design just above the temple entrance. You first want to line up the symbols from left to right in the correct order using the rotating mechanism. Also note that the design has two large golden chevrons above and below the symbols. Line up the lights so that they form the same shape as the chevrons. You can manipulate whether the lights move up or down using either the circles or the rotating mechanism. The red circle should be at the top left and the blue circle should be at the bottom right.

      1. Monicq

        Do you know how I get the googles? Where do I find it? I moved the stone slabs but I can’t find the goggles to use for the elevator please let me know if you have got them. Thanks

        1. Munz

          You have to get the goggles from the building where you found the bone and where the ‘locked door is’. To get the goggles you have to move the 3 slabs. to move the 3 slabs you need to revisit the building where the statue is, there are 4 levels behind the statue that you need to figure out…if you read above it’ll tell you how to get through this stage: PS. Don’t forget you need to amulet which is in the barrel next to the elevator

          You may have to look in the empty cavity the stone slabs moved, i have goggles, not surewhat to do with them lol

      2. Richard

        Thank you for the info. I still can’t get the temple door yet. Any moe info

        1. Richard

          I got it now the instructions worked great. The only thing it was missing is you have to press the green light to change the locations of the colored circles from top to bottom.

  46. Gg

    Are you done with the walkthrough?? Cause im really stuck

  47. Cherry

    None of those hints for temple door help at all is there no solution in which order to press each symbol really stuck and can’t play the game at all so annoying

  48. Asasara

    Totally stuck at the statue. I’ve read every comment in here concerning the statue in the lost city, I’ve found the amulet (and put the belt and bone on the elevator), placed it on the statue and absolutely nothing happens. I also noticed that several of you talked about 3 levers – I’ve only got 2 in my game.

    Can anyone give a helping hand?

    Cheers!

    1. Martin

      When you place the amulet on the statue go to the wall behind it and you will now see a symbol at the wall.

    I am at the elevator. I have placed the bone in position. But the belt, that I earlier retrieved, has disappeared from my list of items. Totally gone and it is nowhere to be found again. What should I do? I have read here about other items gone missing. How did you find them again?

  52. Dani

    1. abiekaye

      It’s that gray strip where you found the rope. I agree it looks nothing like water!

    I can’t figure out the puzzle inside the temple at the bottom of the pit. Is there a logic to it?

    I got it and I will try to explain it so it makes sense. The three pillars you use over if you need to. For example, to light up the left front pillar of the four pillars do this; Notice there are two red circles with the blue lines sticking out each side. That is what you need to make the circle look like on the other screen with the three pillars. So, hit the lever to refresh the contraption as you have to do each one at a time. Go to the right most pillar. Notice when the blue line is sticking out the left side, the other part shows the yellow/white line sticking out the bottom. So to get the middle circle to show the blue line, you move the yellow /white line to the same location as shown on that front right pillar. Then go back and hit the button. The red light lights up. Then touch the pillar and the circles change showing the blue line coming out the right side. Notice the yellow/white line is now coming down. Back out to the big circle where you should now see a blue line on the left matching the front right pillar and half of the front left pillar on the tower screen. Put the yellow/whit line in the spot it shows on that front right pillar and go back and hit the button. The light turns red. Now it is red on both faces when you transition back and forth. Now back out and look at the big circle, you made a blue line in the 3 and 9 o’clock positions to match the front left pillar on the next screen with the tower. Go there, hit that button and it turns red. There you go. You do this separately for each. So now look at one of the other pillars, note where the blue lines are. Go back to the three pillar screen, reset it by hitting the lever. Find the pillar that the blue line matches one of the blue lines on the pillar you chose, place the yellow/white line where it shows on the pillar with the blue line you are matching. It will now light up that one line. Not all are on one pillar. You have to look at the other pillars. Find the one with the other blue line you need, match the yellow/white line on the big circle and go back and hit the button. The light should turn red. Now back up and look at the big circle, there should be two blue lines to match the whatever pillar you chose from the other screen, the tower screen. The three pillars are simply used to match one blue line at a time using the yellow/white line to do so. Still sounds confusing but you’ll get it, play with that and keep reading what I wrote. Remember to reset the switch after each pillar on the tower screen is activated. You are simply making the big circle match the pillar from the tower screen then activating that tower… I’m in the tower now.

      i got it, the 3 pillars is connected with the 4 pillars, to open the tower, you have to activate the 4 pillars using the 3 pillars, one by one, you have to focus the yellow light of 3 pilars, the blue light is will reveal one you pres the button of the pillar, with exact location

      I’ve spent hours trying to figure these 4 pillars. Pulling out hair and getting ready to uninstall this game Until I saw your post. Thank you for making “Pillars for Dummies” so easy to understand.

    Once you have entered the tower, look in the barrel and get the amulet. look at the cogs and use bone and belt on broken cog.

    return to the other building with the statue of the woman and place amulet on her.

    This activates levers behind her. The centre symbol is now lit. press it to change the shape (they correspond with the large stones in the church. select a shape and press the lever that is in the direction you wish the large stone to move.

    spider shape left, man with arms raised top and nose right. Go back to church and you can see alter has opened revealing goggles.

    Go back to the building behind church and use goggles on platform at base of cogs you repaired.

    I will let you work out the reat, but be prepared for a somewhat disappointing ending 🙁

    I figured out the 4 pillars pretty okay, but have been stuck on the cathedral slabs for some time. For the life of me I cannot make the levers move in the direction the slabs should go. The move only up and down! Anybody have any tips on hoe you passed this puzzle?
