  143.                  with spiders. NOTE: The puzzle is won when all but one
  144.                  circles have been covered with a spider. The spiders
  145.                  will move alone one of the lines from the starting
  146.                  circle to the ending circle.

  176.       2.) Click on either purple circle connected via the lines to the
  177.           one from step 1 to have the spider move to there.
  178.  
  179.       3.) Pick a purple circle so that after the spider moves he will
  180.           be on the circle from step #1 above.
  181.       4.) Click on the circle from step #1 above to have the spider move
  182.           to it.

  187.           to it.
  188.  
  189.       Continue this way around the star, picking a spot so that the spider
  190.       can move to the place you CREATED the last spider on.

  194. Skulls and Headstones in my cake:
  195.  
  196.   OBJECTIVE: All 6 guest's need to receive an equal share of cake. The
  197.              problem is that the pieces given to each guest must touch
  198.              on a side. The final shape of the pieces for each guest
  199.              doesn't matter.
  200.  
  201.   The S's represent sections with a SKULL, the H's sections with a Headstone.
  202.   The section without an H or S are just icing.

  305. Blood flow:
  306.  
  307.   OBJECTIVE: Open/Close gates so that the blood can flow from the heart to
  308.              the end. NOTE: Click the heart to get the blood flowing when
  309.              you think you have it.
  310.  
  311.   The easiest strategy I found was to start from the end. Click the gates
  312.   and you will notice that the end with the little ball is fixed. Click the
  313.   gates open and closed so that there is a continuous path for the blood to
  314.   follow. By staring at the end this path is obvious.

  320.   OBJECTIVE: Find your way through the maze to the basement. Another puzzle
  321.              awaits you there. NOTE: The room with the Bishop puzzle has
  322.              a maze on a carpet. This is also the map to the basement. 
  323.              The maze is recreated below. The lengths of sections in the 
  324.              actual maze seem different than the map indicates even though 
  325.              the overall relationship of openings etc. seems correct.

  655.   Clicking to open/close the lid on one affects the ones around it
  656.   like this:  (X) is the one clicked - n means no change in the lid.

  665.  
  666.   Notice that clicking 2,4,6 or 8 has no effect on 5.
  667.  
  668.   One more thing: Several times while trying to click on #9 I managed to
  669.   instead click while the right beckoning hand was displayed. This exits
  670.   the puzzle early. Be sure you have the EYE before clicking in a coffin.
  671.  
  672.   Although I am sure there is a nice algorithm for this solution I still
  673.   have not found it. I have managed to solve it by brute force only.
  674.  
  675.   By resetting the puzzle I usually find a fairly easy one to solve within
  676.   a few minutes.

  780.              When stepping on the FINISH brick it must be the third in that

  826. Flip Picture:
  827.  
  828.   OBJECTIVE: Using the control buttons around the edges retore the picture
  829.              back to it's correct state. Each time the puzzle is restated
  830.              it is scrambled different.
  831.  
  832.    SOLUTION: When the picture is displayed correctly before being scrambled
  833.              the squares of it are numbered 1 to 9 as show below. Memorize
  834.              the section and it's number as shown below.
  835.  
  836.     BUTTONS: Clicking on B1 increments the picture shown in squares 1,4 and 7
  837.              to the next picture in sequence. If picture 9 was shown then
  838.              picture 1 is displayed in that square.
  839.  
  840.              Clicking on B2 increments squares 2,5 and 8.
  841.  
  842.              Clicking on B3 increments squares 3,6 and 9.
  843.  
  844.              Clicking on buttons B7,B8 or B9 decrement their column.
  845.  
  846.              Clicking on buttons B10,B11 or B12 increment the picture on
  847.              their row.
  848.  
  849.              Clicking on buttons B4,B5 or B6 decrement their row.

  865.          the same pattern in columns 1 and 2. I was then able to increment
  866.          column 3 to the same pattern. I was then able to increment row 1
  867.          and 2 until all 9 squares had the SAME picture. I then set column
  868.          2 to the picture before column 3. I then set column 1 to be the
  869.          picture before column 2. I then decremented the rows 1 and 2 until
  870.          I had the complete picture.

  876.   OBJECTIVE: Rearrange the blocks to spell the correct three words.
  877.  
  878.     CONTROL: Clicking on the TOP of a column slides the lower two
  879.              blocks up, the top one goes to the bottom. The opposite
  880.              is true by clicking on the BOTTOM of a column.
  881.              Clicking on the RIGHT edge of a row slides the row to the
  882.              right. The rightmost block goes to the left edge. Again the
  883.              opposite is true for the LEFT edge.
  884.  
  885.              The blocks always initialize to the same configuration:

  933.  
  934.    SOLUTION: I taped a piece of paper to my screen and marked all the keys
  935.              on it. Then I numbered the keys 1,2,3...18 as they were

  937.  
  938.   I believe this is the Sequence - Only part of the Keyboard is shown.
