Promise Island - Goldtooth McGraw's Cave Lever Puzzle Hint/Solution.
|
|
|
|
Most of the scenario should be fairly easy to figure out (I personally don't
|
|
like playing games that make it too difficult). The one place that may catch
|
|
you is getting into Goldtooth McGraw's cave (see hint below).

The lever puzzle used to get into the cave is a binary number. You are told
|
|
what number you need by the sign by the gate. By inspecting the signs on the
|
|
wall behind the levers, you will see that the lowest lever represents the
|
|
least significant bit (bit 0) up the the upper lever lever which represents
|
|
the most significant bit (bit 7). When you pull a lever, it toggles the bit
|
|
it represents to one or back to zero. The levers all start in the zero
|
|
position. By stepping out of the cave, then back in, the levers are reset
|
|
back to the zero position (solution below).

The binary representation of 221 is (starting with most significant):
|
|
"11011101"
|
|
So to open the gate, you need to (starting from the bottom lever up and in the
|
|
zero position): pull, skip, pull, pull, pull, skip, pull, pull.
