On the Subject of The Jewel Vault
How did the Ancient Greeks make such an advanced lock? It must be aliens!
- The module consists of a locked five-wheel door, a compass rose, a reset button (bottom left) and a submit button (bottom right).
- The outermost-wheel contains eight Greek symbols and cannot be directly controlled. The other wheels each contain four different coloured jewels and can be rotated.
-
There are eight potential jewels that you may encounter. Each jewel can only appear once on any given wheel:
- Amethyst (purple)
- Emerald (green)
- Glass (silver/clear)
- Onyx (black)
- Poudretteite (pink)
- Ruby (red)
- Sapphire (blue)
- Scapolite (yellow)
- To solve the module, set the correct jewels to the correct orientation and press the submit button.
- Submitting an incorrect configuration of jewels will cause a strike, shuffle the wheels and change the orientation.
- Turning the wheels a total of thirteen times without resetting will shuffle the wheels and change the orientation.
- Pressing the reset button will return the wheels to their original orientations.
-
The central orb of the door changes colour depending on the action currently being undertaken:
- White = stationary
- Yellow = manual movement
- Blue = manual reset
- Pink = limiter shuffle
- Red = strike shuffle
- Green = solved
