Nancy Drew: Curse of the Blackmoor Manor Message Board  

I can't help you with the tiles, sorry.

But I can help you with the moving rooms. It's kind of confusing, but when you get to a room with a pillar, there will be a map for the moving rooms on top. Then it will be less confusing.

The goal is to get to the door with the angel on it. When you find it, go through that door. Do not go through the doors with a devil on them. They're traps.

Here's how to get through the moving rooms:

Click once on the door to open it, but DO NOT enter the room.

Close the door by clicking on either the far right or far left edge. It rotates.
Open the Mars door again, and again DO NOT enter; close it again.

Now turn around. You should see the Mercury door on the far side of the room.
Open the Mercury door and enter the room. You find another puzzle-lock on the next door.
The symbols are from the science of Alchemy.

Important: Click on the circular snake symbol at the top-center of the puzzle. You will need to enable this puzzle by talking to Nigel and learning about Alchemy from the Web. Go to the Library, ask Nigel about the snake (Ouroboros; actually Ouroboros,) then browse the web to get the meaning of the symbols.

Careful! To exit, use the same process. Open and close the Mars door TWICE without stepping through it. Turn around and exit through the Mercury door into the passage. (If you find yourself in another room instead, it's easier to go back to a saved game than to start the maze all over.) It's possible to get hopelessly lost in the rotating rooms, so be very careful.

thanx, but may i remind you, im 10! so, to me mercery and mars are just round planets (i think) and after u do that thing with the statue in the library, how long will nigel be there? and do i hav 2 open and close any specific door? if i do, wats the symbol on it?because in the middle room with the pillar, there are 2 doors, the one to the right, and the one in front of u. which 1 do i go through (if there is a specific room?)

I'm so sorry I didn't answer...again.
I just started school yesterday, and I've been really busy.

But anyway, the the first door you come to is the Mars door. Open it, and then close it. Don't go through it. Turn around, and the second door should be the Mercury door. Then just follow the rest of my directions.

Nigel will be gone for a while after you scare him with the statue. Try to find him after you get through the moving rooms.

thanx! but u ALREADY started skool????? where do u live, and wat grade??

I live in the United States, and I'm going into high school, which is 9th grade.

So, do you need help with anything else? Just let me know if you do. But I probably can't answer as quickly since I'm in school.
