Anyone figure out the puzzle after placing the gears? It’s the one with 10 things of numbers to dial in.
Stuck here as well, don’t even know where to start.
Not got a clue I’m on that one too don’t obviously some kind of lock to open . Looks like the numbers must go in some kind of order.
So stuck on 34, any tips? I’m not sure i’m getting it, why isn’t the puzzle solved when you get a 6 show at the top? Can you buy enough hints to just jump the puzzle? Thanks.
Liz, hints are just hints and unfortunately don’t give you the “solved” stamp. I skipped 34. I will probably never return to it because later on there are more impossible/too boring to finish type puzzles (Tower of Hanoi for one!).

Noobs: swap out xx with tt in browser
just click on the “help me” to advance 1 step at a time. Yes, it’s cheating however given that have limited number of turns to figure it out kind of is impossible if you don’t know the algorithm. Every move done correctly leaves you with only 9 extra moves!!! Talk about hard.
Currently 79/100 if anyone has questions…except sliding blocks, code box and other impossibles! Working on getting some screenshots up for some solutions.
Ben, Imgur works best for screenshots. Drop a comment and i’ll link it all up.
Sorry. Need a bit help again on Puzzle 50 please. It’s the 1-8 puzzle. Any ideas. Would be very grateful. Thanks for the help on puzzle 46.

This might help a little for the sliding picture, like Sophie was saying, but in less words, 😉 start with the clock and work your way down trying to get the dog then get the picture pieces towards the upper left corner and other pieces just in their general area then you can do the small square jumps to put in exact locations. Took me about 5 times and I honestly think I got lucky on the”random” arrangement of starting pieces the last time. Good luck.
Puzzle 59 – Combination
Brute forced it with a little computer program; arrange three consecutive rows with the following numbers:
4 4 2 2
3 3 3 3
5 1 1 5.
Or the using logic: don’t move the left one at all. Find the 5 on the left column and note the other three combined must equal 7 at that row. Then it’s just a few combinations to try!.

i know these are easy but i happened to remember to take a screen shot.
For the sliding block puzzles (like 47) use this website hxxp://analogbitDOTcom/software/puzzletools
I would post the solutions but they’re quite long. 47 is 115 moves -.-.
This is awesome thanks.
Finally! Puzzle 70
http://imgur.Com/NooMR.
For those who can’t view Imgur, ihat’s puzzle 70 –
16,3,2,13
5,10,11,8
9,6,7,12
4,15,14,1.
The puzzle changes every time unfortunately, the numbers that are already placed are different every time you load the puzzle.
Hi. I’m stuck on Lucas Problem. Any ideas please? Would be very grateful. Thanks.
Hi clc, Lucas problem solution is available here somewhere in these comments. Just do a search on this page for lucas or you can find the solution on on Wikipedia, it’s an ancient puzzle!.
It doesn’t matter that the puzzles change every time. You can always use the solution Nerdr provided.
For example, I got something like:
_16_ _
_ _ 11 _
_ _ _ _
_ _ _ _
So with Nerdr’s solution i know all the numbers that have to go in the 16’s column and I know all the numbers that have to go in the 11’s column. I also know that I have to place the correct numbers in the space that intersect’s 16 and 11’s column”
_16 2 _
_ 5 11 _
_ _ _ _
_ _ _ _
Just fill in from there. 16’s row could be: 3 16 2 13 so then
11’s row would be: 10 5 11 8.
Could you give me the link to lucas problem on wikipedia please? Thanks.
My sincere apologies clc, I thought I had answered the Lucas problem here in the comments before. Here is the solution:
1. >>>>_<<<< 2. >>>><_<<< 3. >>>_<><<< 4. >>_><><<<
5. >><>_><<< 6. >><><>_<< 7. >><><><_< 8. >><><_<><
9. >><_<><>< 10. >_<><><>< 11. _><><><>< 12. <>_><><><
The arrows are the pieces.
Can you get a screenshot please?.
Lucas problem solution wasn’t displaying correctly, fixed now.
Followed your Lucas Problem solution and will not work for me. Am I doing something wrong?.
Clc, try this solution to the lucas problem: up, down, down, up, up, up, down, down, down, down and continue with that pattern until you finish.
Can anyone please help, stuck on the last puzzle after putting in all the cogs.
Sliding puzzle #30? Anyone?.
Have you done puzzle 14? Cannot work it out. Help please?.
Both my wife and I are stick on sliding puzzles 39 & 46. Puzzle 39 we have literally tried for 3 days and we can’t get it. We’d appreciate any direction or theories for the sliding block puzzles.
Number 21…rotating picture. I cannot figure it out! Does anyone know if the 8 is like the number eight or the infinity side to side? That would be a huge help.
Another one stuck on 21, and I’ve now done every other available puzzle. 98/100, and this one still defeats me!
Ive tried looking at the way the spaghetti lines are shaded, and even though I am pretty sure I’ve lined everything up correctly, I’m still not getting it right somewhere. I’m also wondering if the square with the 8 is properly orientated, plus the squares left, and diagonally down left to the square with the 8 don’t seem to fit.
Anyone have a screen grab, or any other advice on this one, cos it’s doing me in!.
How did you get past the boards at 90/100? For 21 I had to buy a hint and that gives you infinite time. The 8 should be right side up.
Erm…regarding the boards. I just tapped the top-most board until the nails fell out, & it disappeared, then did the same with the next one, then the last one.
Thanks. I think my game may be frozen. No amount of tapping does anything and anywhere on the screen where I tap I get the “smoke” effect used when you tap an inactive area.
If the games is frozen try resetting the device. Usually fixes a freeze for me.
I’m stuck on puzzle 50. Anyone got any clues? It is the 1-8 puzzle.
I dealt with puzzle 50 by placing the 1 in one of the middle 2 sections, then surrounding it with 3,4,5,6,7,8, then tweaking until they matched the rules. 2 just went in the remaining slot,.
Could I have a screenshot please. Thanks.
Also would it be possible if you could help me with puzzle 46 sliding blocks 5 please? Thanks.
@clc
unfortunately, I can’t take a screenshot as the thumbs up thing comes up soon as it’s complete.
For the 1-8 puzzle
– 3 5 –
7 1 8 2
– 4 6 –
Note the 6 glows when you complete it. Could be significant…!.
No problem. Figured it out at last. Thanks for the help anyway.
Clc, If you figured it out please leave a comment for others explaining how you did it!.
Could I have help please with puzzle 52 please? Thanks.
Hi Mike. Have you completed the Hamiltonian puzzles? I can’t seen to understand and complete it. Could you please tell me? I would be so happy if you do. Been stuck on it for days. Thank you.
Another question…does anyone know why if I bought a hint for number 21, which gave me unlimited time. I did not get past it last night so I put it down. Now when I go to complete it today, the timer is back. That is ridiculous if this app doesn’t give you your hint after turning the app off for awhile.
Do you know how to complete it by any chance?.
You just have to press use hint again.
If you’ve bought a hint on a level, then exit that level, all you have to do is go back onto that level. The timer will be back on, but go into use hint and click it. It will remove the timer and won’t cost you an extra hint as you’ve already purchased it. X.

Thank you! I didn’t have the time to solve it but I just knew that bottom left corner was that way. Cheers Ben!.
I need help please on the Hamiltonian puzzles please? Can’t seem to complete them. Could you help me solve them please?.
For the Hamiltonian puzzles: Start by connecting as many pieces around the edge as possible then add the middle parts to the outside network piece by piece.
What do you mean?.
First connect all the nails around the edge. THEN start connecting the inside nails to this outside “fence” you made.
What I mean is, basically trial and error. Just keep trying!.
Ok. Thanks a lot. Will try that. If I need help again, will let you know.
Actually, I also need help with solitaire. Could you tell or show me how you complete this with the hint please? Thanks.
Can any1 help me on 86 i dont understand it at all.
You have got to tap on the bust that you think is copying the other. I found it tricky and it took me 2 whole days to do it.
Try to find the two busts that are following the same pattern, than tap the copy cat bust first and the original bust second. This is definately a little tricky. Good luck!!!.
I take my hat off for the person who’s designed the final (100th) puzzle. The answer is a work of beauty. Here it is!
This is how it works: all ten numbers correspond with one of the 99 levels. I’m sure most of you had already noticed the 8 in the noodles, and the gleaming 6 in the 1-8 game. There are ten of these. You might want to give the following levels another look, even though it almost always means you have to do them again: (if you don’t want to, just scroll down for the answers!)
Level 4: Compare the ‘done’ stamp to other stamps – do you see a difference?
Level 21: There’s something hidden in this picture
Level 35: Compare the ‘done’ stamp to other stamps – do you see a difference?
Level 36: Do you notice anything about the shape of the tangram?
Level 50: Once you’ve solved this one, a number lights up
Level 54: Once you’ve got the picture, look closely at the Mannequin (sleeve)
Level 59: Once you’ve solved this one, a number lights up
Level 70: Once you’ve solved this one, a number lights up
Level 90: Once you’ve solved this, look closely at the Mannequin (ear)
Level 95: Once you’ve solved this, you’ve got the last number!
SPOILER COMING UP!
Answers:
1 = 04
2 = 36
3 = 95
4 = 35
5 = 59
6 = 50
7 = 54
8 = 21
9 = 90
10 = 70.
Have you done the hamiltonian puzzles. I am lost and confused on what to do. Cannot understand it one little bit. Please help anyone and please add a screenshot or step by step guide. Thanks.
Man, I don’t know how you got all that, but thank you, I’m pretty sure I would have given up before finding all the numbers.
Hi Dean. Can you help me please with the lights out puzzles? I have got to the point where there is one light left but which combination do you use? Help please. Much appreciated.

Anyone else got requests? Get ’em in now while you can!.
Awesome game, thanks mojo bones team.
Love the game. 10/10.
Is Level 34 akin to Voldemort? No one is mentioning it! I have got number 6 twice on this, I understood that this would indicate having got the solution correct or at least the correct symbols not necessarily in the correct order. When it didn’t solve, having turns remaining, I tried the same symbols in a different order and got a ZERO! Even more baffling: when I got 6 again I submitted the same symbols only to get zero again. This one is blowing my mind. Any ideas?.
Anniep, it changes every time and is considered one of the most grindy puzzles in the game.
I’m needing help with puzzle 89, the last draw the line.
Puzzle 89 – 5 top to 5 bottom, top left corner to 6 right, 3 left to 7 right, 5 left to 8 right and finally 3 left to 3 right. I like the draw the line puzzles :).
Have you done puzzle 77? Need help. Thanks.
Has anyone done puzzle 77? If so can you help me with it please? Much appreciated.
Puzzle 77 – Draw the line number 5. Top left corner to bottom 6, top 6 to left 5, top right corner to bottom left corner, left 6 to right 7 and finally top 3 to right 4.
Thanks. But what do you mean by “draw the line number 5”?.
Puzzle 77 is the 5th draw the line puzzle. It is “Draw the line 5”. Ha.
Just to say thanks for all the help for this puzzle.
Can anyone help with the last 2 lights out puzzles? 92 and 98. I bought hints but can’t do them even with unlimited moves.
I mean 92 and 96. I can get both down to one light but can’t complete.
Type in lights out puzzle solver into google and click the top link then input the problem and click solve and follow the steps.
Please can someone screen shot tangrams 8 and 10 and lights out 4 and 5
many thanks.
I don’t get how it solves it? Just a load of 1’s pop up.
You click each bulb that has a 1 on it, I usually just start from top left and go by row, it’s worked every time for me.
