- Work out how many 45 degree clockwise turns are needed to rotate the rod so that it points upward (so the missing sphere is to the top right). Turn around and focus on the bottom right dial.

4th Position: 4 turns
5th Position: 5 turns
6th Position: 7 turns
- Count the number of squares you need to move down to reach the target in the middle grid. Add 13 to this number, and subtract the numeric position of the bottom right dial that you just set. Divide this number by 6 and just keep the remainder. Add 1 to this result. This is the position you need to set the bottom left dial.

Top Left Position: Middle, Middle
Top Position: Right, Middle
Top Right Position: Left, Middle
Left Position: Middle, Left
Center Position: Left, Left
Right Position: Right, Left
Bottom Left Position: Right, Right
Bottom Position: Middle, Right
Bottom Right Position: Left, Right
- Now press the red button. If everything is correct, the 3 dots in the grids will all be within the target squares. If you got something wrong, start again from step 1.
