HotU: Ch. 1, Level 2: Opening the door with the colored chains

Tiela · 02-01-2004, 10:35 PM

Hi, I just started HotU, and I'm stuck already. I'm at the point where you have to attach a bunch of colored chains to some pillars to open a door to the next level. I have all the chains, and I attached them all. The problem is, the door still won't open. I've tried clicking on the chains/pillars when a light that matches them comes up over the pool, but that doesn't seem to work, either.

Does anyone know how to get the door open? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You need to look at the colors that show up above the pool. They go fast so you better watch it first and then use the chains in the same order. IIRC you need to use 5 or 6 chains.

There are only four chains. The sequence of colors of the chains you must pull does run through either five or six colors. The sequence also resets everytime you load the game so saving and trying to go through by trial and error doesn't help. Try pausing the game as each color appears, write it down, unpause etc. It took me four shots doing that to get the door open. You'll know you screwed up if a wyrmling appears - if you are on the right track you will hear chimes. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thank you SO much, Micah and Philip! I was so stuck I thought I might have to quit the game. I took your advice and it worked like a charm. Thanks a ton. [img]smile.gif[/img]
