Important:  This version of my walkthrough is a straight, text-only conversion of the MS Word 6.0 version.  Therefore, due to formatting constraints, some of the following puzzle solutions may be difficult to understand. 


The 11th Hour: The sequel to the 7th Guest and the 7th Guest are Trademarks of Virgin Interactive Entertainment, Inc. and Trilobyte, Inc.

Game Facts and Tips:

Few people know that you can move from room to room in the 11th hour by clicking on available rooms from your Map in the Game Book. (Please note that this function only becomes available once you have finished the game for the first time and allowed all of the closing credits to roll.)  This saves a great deal of time traveling around the house.  You may, however, use your right mouse button to eliminate transitions (i.e. moving from one spot to another).

Once you finish the game you will be awarded with an "Open House" file which will allow you access to all rooms, puzzles, videos etc. for when you next start the game (this feature is also available in the 7th Guest).  It also allows you to watch all of the video clips as a near-feature length movie.

The name of the woman who talks to you through your game book is Samantha.  She is your "Techno - Psychic Ally" and can provide you with help and hints to game puzzles and riddles.  Listen to her carefully!  If you ever get stuck on a puzzle or riddle, you can open your game book and click on the fastforward ((() button to get a hint from Samantha.  You can continue pressing the fastforward button until she starts to repeat herself.  The disadvantage to using her is that she will eventually run out of "power" and won't be able to maintain a connection with you later on in the game when you may need her the most.

Before you can actually start playing the game, you will be presented with a graphic of three skulls.  The skull on the right of your screen has a very faint X in its right (your left) eye.  You must click on this X to begin the actual game.  Once this is done, You must wait through the lengthy opening credits (i.e. Virgin Interactive grandfather clock graphic and the flying Trilobyte pyramid graphic).  To avoid this annoyance, simply type "pp" (without the quotes) before you click on the skull's X.  You will then be able to fastforward through the opening credits by clicking on your right mouse button.

I suggest you save your game often to avoid frustration.  I also suggest that you read through your game manual at least once.


Walkthrough: 

At the start of the game your cursor will be blinking.  This action indicates that you should look at your Game Book.  Do this by clicking at the top of the screen.  Your Goal is to try to save Robin (your female companion) and to destroy the evil house if possible.  In order to do this you must solve puzzles and find the solutions to many tricky riddles.  Puzzles are 3D games which you can virtually manipulate.  Riddles are given to you to solve by Stauf through your Game Book.

- Open your Game Book.  Your first riddle is "Winter coat worn for a mixer."  The voice you hear is that of Stauf.  To solve this riddle, go to the Library and click on the bottle of tonic water which is on top of the fireplace.  You will get to watch a video clip (press the Play button on your GameBook (().

- Your next riddle is "Rolling rock, bottle cap."  You must solve a puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Go to Brian Dutton's room (see your map) and click on the Cash Register Puzzle at the back, right side of the room.  The object of the puzzle is to make both sides of the display equal one another.  Since you start with 162, both sides must equal 81.  To solve the puzzle do the following:  In the top row, depress the number 25, and the last three keys (5,10,10).  In the bottom row depress the last four keys (10,10,1,10).  In this room you will notice a champagne bottle on the floor close to the TV - click on it.  Now click on the cork to solve the riddle (Video Clip).

- Your next riddle is "Artsy, excited, lecher."  Your must first solve a Chess Puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  The chess puzzle is in the main foyer on a table near the grandfather clock.  Click on the puzzle.  To solve it, you must switch the positions of the white and black knights.  Move your knights according to the positions on the following chart.

2345678910Move down the columns from left to right.

1 to 410 to 210 to 410 to 24 to 104 to 102 to 104 to 1010 to 26 to 41 to 76 to 47 to 14 to 14 to 14 to 11 to 41 to 710 to 41 to 74 to 107 to 54 to 610 to 45 to 710 to 41 to 44 to 17 to 12 to 107 to 12 to 101 to 48 to 24 to 1010 to 42 to 84 to 11 to 44 to 6To solve the riddle you must go to the Art Gallery.  To get there you must click on the middle of the grandfather clock.  You will travel through a secret passage into the gallery (Stauf will say "Ohh bad move).  Click on the painting above the statue on the floor (directly in front of you).  To solve the riddle click directly on the Man-Beast thing (lecher) in the center of the painting. (Video Clip).

- Your next riddle is "A heart attack could put you in the ground."  You must solve a puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Exit the Gallery by clicking on the small painting to the left of opposite, far wall.  Go to the Library.  You will see a series of books on a shelf between two skulls.  Click on these books.  The object of the Book Puzzle is to put all of the green books on the left and all of the red books on the right.  Two books are moved at a time.  
There are ten spaces between the skulls and only eight books.  In my solution I tell you to count books.  Count only the books and imagine that the two free spaces don't exist. Count from left to right.  Use these four moves to solve the puzzle:

Move the 2nd and 3rd books.  Next move the 3rd and 4th books.  Next move the 6th and 7th books and finally the 1st and 2nd books.  You will notice a globe of the earth in this room.  click on it to solve the riddle.  (Video Clip).

- Your next riddle is "Battleground."  Go to Brian Dutton's room and go through the door on the left side of the bed.  This is the passage into the Chapel.  Go through the wooden door into the Lab.  You must solve another puzzle before you can solve the riddle.  The puzzle is on the counter beside a large green bottle.  You play this Mouse Trap Puzzle against Stauf!  The object of the puzzle is to create a path for the mouse to follow into the orange door (the one on the right of your screen).  Playing a maze piece causes the other pieces in the row to slide over or in a column to slide up and down.  This puzzle is tough and there is no absolute solution (sorry).  Once you solve the puzzle, you can then solve the riddle by clicking on the RX pill box which is on the counter in front of the green bottle. (Video Clip).

- Your next riddle is "6632646254626455466."  Click on the white lion statue at the top of the stairs to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).

- Your next riddle is "Drink left at sea."  Go to Ed Knox's room and click on the glass of wine (port) to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).

- Your next riddle is "Snake, baby, trap."  You must solve a puzzle before you can solve this riddle.  Go to the Doll Room.  Click on the Bishops Puzzle located on the dresser.  The object of this puzzle is to swap the positions of the white and black bishops.  It will take you at least 18 moves.  This one is fairly simple.  Once you solve it, click on the floor boards under the shelf with the ballerina statue on it.  You will go through the floor.  Now click on the big, pink rattle to solve the riddle. (Video Clip).

- Your next riddle is "A letter from Greece..."  Go to the grandfather clock and click on the number 11 on the face of the clock.(Video Clip) 

- Your next riddle is "This eight letter word has kst in the..." Go to the library. SAVE YOUR GAME AT THIS POINT because the game will not allow any further saves past this point.  Now click on the desk and then on the pen and ink holder to solve the riddle.

Go to the doll room and then through the floor boards again.  Now click on the toy doll house on the floor.  This is the final puzzle of the game and, of course, you play against Stauf.  To win you must get five of your "stones" in a row (any direction) or capture five pairs of Stauf's stones.  To "capture" Stauf's stones you must sandwich two of his stones between two of yours.  I also find it easier to capture Stauf's stones rather than forming a line of five. There is no absolute solution to this puzzle. To improve your odds, I suggest you leave a space between your first few stones.

Once you solve this puzzle, you will be faced with an 11th hour decision.  Only one of the choices is truly correct!  Once you finish the game, you may want to reload your last saved game in order to view the other two endings.  Be warned however, in order to do so you must solve the dollhouse puzzle again...and it won't be so easy the second time around!
