For everyone wanting a way to "reset" puzzles, if you're stuck, just press Menu, Play, and then Continue. You should end up back in the same room but with the puzzle reset. Had to do this because the Towers of Hanoi puzzles (cheese-wheels) throws a fit if you do it wrong.
+1 so others can see how to reset and stop griping about it

The tower door says: "foras sesto pondero ver". . . hmmm. . . "for asses to ponder over"? Oh Rob Almighty, you got me again.

@Skirk "Not very colorblind friendly." Actually John and I are both colourblind ourselves so it does occur to us. We used bright colours to help them stand out from each other. I know there are different degrees of colourblindness but seeing as we could both play it with no problems we thought it would be ok. Apologies that that apparently wasn't the case for you though.

Red, there's an orange tree right there in the foyer. You could eat those instead of prancing all over the castle, silly goose.

The guitar piece is not an original composition by John Sayes. It is a real renaissance lute song called Lachrimae, or 'Flow My Tears', composed by the great John Dowland (1562–1626). He was a formidable lutenist and worked in the court of Queen Elizabeth I. I've played a solo rendition of the song on classical guitar, it's ablolutely marvelous stuff. Here's another nice version: https://youtu.be/jkRrzAo9Wl4 .

Gret game! Although I wish the puzzles would reset when you left the room. :/ I clicked away at the nine torch puzzle and cant reset it :( Will I be stuck here forever?!

Why should red (yellow?) be able to move? Any reason other than to annoyingly stand in the way of the cursor? It's been 9 years tho, the game aged well enough.

Have you noticed while we do the hard work, he just juggles and plays the guitar and stuff. That little ungrateful whatever he is. I don't think I'm going to let him have the muffin as much as I want to keep playing. Ah, whatever I'll just continue.

if you need to restart a puzzle, just refresh the page and go to your save game. then the puzzle will restart. + so everyone can see

A reset button for some of the puzzles would be nice. They're generally simple, but you can still mess up enough to want to start over.

glitch: in the second to last room, if you do a certain combination the squares go crazy when you try to move it and can go outside the X.

A rare case where you already had the badge for BOTD and all the others but you still play the game all over again because it's great!
