Lock Quest: The Wizard's Staircase

The tower door is open!

The door swings open onto a round room full of stars. The wizard looks up from his book. "You did not guess even once," he says. "That is the only real magic there is."

You are now a Lock Master. Go tell your teacher!

Your mission

Quill the owl is climbing the wizard's tower, and the door at the top is sealed five ways. The wizard does not believe in magic words. He believes in thinking. His marble machine, rune cards, lever doors, hat board, and picture spells are all pure logic: follow each rule exactly, and the door has no choice but to open.

How to crack a lock

• Pick any lock from the menu at the top. You can solve them in any order.
• Read every clue before you start. One clue alone is never enough.
• Use scratch paper. Draw pictures, make lists, and cross things out.
• Tap the buttons to build your answer. Then press "Try the lock".
• A lock will not tell you which part is wrong, so be sure before you try.
