On the Subject of Sea Shells
Clear communication is crucial when defusing bombs. One can only assume that this module doesn’t want to be defused.
- The Sea Shells module consists of a display and five buttons.
- The display shows a phrase. The first two words of the phrase refer to a row of Table 1. The third and fourth words refer to a column of Table 1. The remainder of the phrase refers to Table 2.
- Table 1 will give a code, and Table 2 will provide a key to turn the code into a sequence of words.
- The buttons must be used to input the sequence of words. Pressing an incorrect button will result in a strike and reset the current stage of the module.
- Inputting a correct sequence three times will disarm the module.
