Try different ways to make arrows. "hell" isn't exactly directly due north.

I need help with the "point to Hell" riddle ! I tried so many combinations that I don't know what to do !
The obvious was to try to make arrows pointing up but it doesnt seem to be that.

Well I obviously don't get it ! I tried most of the directions and combinations with 3 stones in each room and still can't make anything happen. The problem is that I saved in that room and now I'm stuck there. Very frustrating.

Mmmm, yes. I think I will need to tweak this room, because depending upon how you go through the various teleports, you might not have uncovered clues about this yet. So, in case you have not found this clue yet there is one that says something to the effect: The Well of the Souls is the gateway to Hell. Next question, do you know where the Well of the Souls is? Because, again, you might not have been around it yet.

Another hint

You need just two stones per room

Thanks for your reply but I didn't get the clue and I don't know where the Well of the Souls is ! I tried the few obvious combinations that make arrows with 2 stones and I just gave up !
Can you just give me the answer so I can go on ?

Hi there,
I'm stuck again !!! I don't know what is wrong with me because I usually figure things out. Well anyway I'm again at the Teleport level and I visited all the rooms except the one where i'm supposed to use the last key. I cannot access that room with the teleports so I don't know. I got the "symmetrical" note and everything else is symetrical besides the room I can't access.

No, but they are allowed to roam free so sometimes they congregate. That is part of the fun of the level I think. :twisted:

You probably missed the that particular teleporter somewhere. Note that sometimes the teleporters

jump you to the other hall of teleporters and you might not realize it.
When I was playing this level I made a note on the automap and kept moving the note down the line so I would know where I left off. And then I made specific notes for the key rooms.

Still stuck on the Tarjan level. Tried lots of different things for "gracing" the altars, including

casting spells, putting scrolls, etc., using the "let your mages guide you" clue.
Nothing is working for me.

NW = fire. You can use a firebomb, fire arrow or one of the seemingly useless fire scrolls you found elsewhere on the level.
