    This kinda hard, but I love it.

    This one is definitely a challenge, and pretty much an entirely new game, with only the basic theme being the same as the original Sphinx game.

    I made steady progress right up until the end, but I'm currently stuck on what I believe is the final puzzle (the one with the little telescope). That one reminds me a lot of Neutral's Vision escape.

    @Tom: Try turning the lights off and going back into each room. You'll see a glowing spot in each. Investigate them, and you'll figure it out from there.

    Thanks, that was the one thing I had missed. In retrospect, I should have looked for it, but for some reason I had assumed the lever only affected that one room.

    Some things that were not intuitive for me:
    - the pick needs to be used to break something other than the obviously brittle brick in the wall
    - the little cube is not manipulated by clicking, but by dragging it with your mouse
    - the order for the colours on the pyramid (possibly how fast the different hourglasses run?)
    - you can get your marbles (balls) back after you use them to get the flute, but for this you need to find another (dark) marble

    A very nice, long escape, and mostly straightforward. I only needed a walkthrough for the colours, the other "difficult" things I discovered by accident. Thank you!

    What a great set of puzzles. Kotorinosu really did a good job creating a multi-leveled complex for you to get out. Nice graphics, good intermixing of clues, and lots of unexpected doors.

    Yes, this one is definitely several levels above your average escape game.
