1.1 About Enigma

To say that Enigma is a puzzle game is an understatement. Enigma isreally a huge collection of puzzle games, and each of its 550 uniquelevels challenges the intelligence, dexterity and sheer willpower ofits players anew. Enigma is simple to learn, challenging to play andhard to master. It can be enjoyed by players of almost any age. Itcontains hundreds of levels. And if that weren't enough, it's alsocompletely free. If you like puzzle games and have a steady hand,Enigma will probably keep you busy for hours on end.

The object of the game is to find and uncover pairs of identicallycolored `Oxyd' stones. Simple? Yes. Easy? Certainly not! Hiddentraps, vast mazes, laser beams, and, most of all, countless hairypuzzles usually block your direct way to the Oxyd stones. Enigma'sgame objects (and there are hundreds of them, lest you get bored)interact in many unexpected ways, and since many of them follow the laws ofphysics (Enigma's special laws of physics, that is), controlling themwith the mouse isn't always trivial ....

The original goal of the Enigma project was to keep the spirit of theOxyd game series alive, after its publisher decided in 2002 to leavethe gaming business. Fans of this famous game will have theirdéjà-vu. But over the years, Enigma has absorbed ideasfrom countless other popular games, and added its own unique twists toeach of them.

Enigma is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and most flavors of Linux and other modern Unices. It has been translated to many languages. Even this manual isavailable in several languages.

There is an official homepage forEnigma that contains screen shots, downloads, latest news, and the mostrecent version of this manual.The Enigma developers can always be reached by email atenigma-devel@nongnu.org.

Enigma is free software, i.e., you are encouraged to copy it and giveit to your friends (see section Distributing Enigma). Enigma is developedby a small group of volunteers, all of us working in our free time.If you like the game please send us an email. It's probably the onlything we will ever get in return for the countless hours we have putinto this game.

1.2 Installation

The latest version of Enigma can be downloaded from Enigma'sDownload Page. This page contains packages for the following operatingsystems:

The Windows version of Enigma is distributed as a self-installingexecutable. Simply download and run the provided `.exe' file.

Binary packages exist for some popular Linux distributions like SUSE,Redhat, or Debian. For other Unix-like operating systems, buildingEnigma from source is usually the easiest solution.

No installation is necessary for the OS X version, simply execute the`.dmg' or `.tar.gz' file.

The download page usually contains more detailed and up-to-dateinformation. If you cannot get Enigma to work on your computer, feelfree to ask for help on the Enigma mailing list(enigma-devel@nongnu.org).

1.3 Distributing Enigma

2.1 Getting Started

After starting Enigma, you will be confronted with the main menu, fromwhere you can start a new game, set some options, or leave the game ifyou've had enough. The following sections will give you a quick tourof the level menu and the options menu; everything else is hopefullyself-explanatory. Many menus provide an online help; simply press theF1 key.

2.1.1 The Level Menu

Pressing 'Start Game' in the main menu leads you to the level menu,which looks something like this:

The screen consists of three areas: the top area contains informationabout the currently selected level and the current level pack, themiddle area displays an overview of the available levels and at thebottom is a row of buttons.

You can move around the list of levels using either the small arrowbuttons to the right or using the arrows keys. To start a new game,simply click on the preview image of the landscape you want to play orpress RET.

Enigma has two difficulty settings: 'easy' and 'normal.' Toswitch between easy and normal difficulty, press the center button inthe bottom row: switch to the icon displaying a silver medal with afeather if you prefer simpler levels, or to the gold medal for thenormal, more difficult, game mode.

Not all levels are available in a simplified version; those that doare marked with a feather (if you did not solve it yet) or with asilver medal in the upper left corner of their preview image.

You can jump to the next level either by pressing F5 or by pushing the>> button in the bottom row. The meaning of 'next' in theprevious sentence depends on themode that you selected with the left-most icon button in the bottom row.

• A steady black marble icon stands for 'strictly next'. You will get the next levelin the level pack regardless of whether you already solved that levelor not.
• The icon that displays medals that are ready for honoring stands for next unsolved mode. In this mode the >> buttons moves to the nextunsolved level.
• The icon with the speeding black marble stands for the par mode. Par is the professionalaverage rating for a level. This represents a score that should be reachablefor a skilled player. Levels where your score is equal to or lowerthan this par value will be marked with the speeding marble icon. In this mode the>> button moves to the next level with a score below par.
• Finally a world icon is provided for the world record hunt mode. If your scoreis the best score ever recorded you will be honored with the world record icon.If you select this mode a level will be played again and again until youreach the world record.

The level may be additionally labeled with a small red triangle with an exclamation mark in the upper left corner. This sign should inform you that the levelwas updated since you last solved it. You will probably only see thiswhen you update Enigma to a newer version.

You can navigate the level menu with the following keys:

Return to the last menu

2.1.2 The Level Pack Menu

Enigma comes with many levels. Many, many levels, in fact. To keepsthings orderly, they have been organized into 'level packs'. And because every release of Enigma added more levels, we even had to organize the level packs themselves into 'groups'. Butluckily, this is all a lot easier than it sounds.

To select the level pack, you have to enter the 'Level Pack' menu towhich is accessible from the main menu or the level menu.

This menu shows the groups in the left column and the level packs of the selected group in the other columns to the right. The official groupsthat ship with Enigma are the following:

• Enigma - levels that are written just for Enigma
• Déjà-vu - levels that you may have seen before
• Sokoban
• Facets - special sortings and views of the levels above
• User - personal levels and level packs like History, automatically generated by the system for the user.
• Development - templates and unfinished levels from the Enigma Team
• All Packs

Left clicks select a group or a level pack.

For description of further features of level packs see User Level Packs.

2.1.3 Game Options

The options menu allows you to adapt Enigma to your preferences.

Choose the language for the menus and (if available) for thein-level-documents.

Toggles between full screen and windowed display. You can also useAlt-RET to do this, even when you are not in the optionsmenu. Note: On some systems you have to return to the main menuto switch from window to full screen or vice versa.

This button lets you change the video mode used by Enigma. Enigma doesnot switch the video mode immediately but waits until you return to themain menu.

2.1.4 The Level Inspector

To view more detail information about a level you can call the level inspector.Just right or control click on the level's preview image in the level menu.

You can compare your scores to the world record, the par, the level author'sscore. Even some statistics about how many players solved a level are provided.

Besides all the other information that is described in detail in the referencemanual you can enter a small annotation to a level and can rate the level.

Please note the annotation text field may allow you just to enter ASCII characters depending on the system Enigma is running.

The rating is your personal impression of the level. `-' stands for noopinion. 0 - for very bad, 5 - for average, 10 - for best of best. The ratingswill be sent back with your scores (see section Registering Scores).

Last but not least you can use the Level Inspector to view screen shots that you made while playing a level (see section Controls).

2.2 Rules of the Game

2.2.1 Normal landscapes

The basic idea behind Enigma is simple: In most levels you control asmall black marble and have to find and 'open' matching pairs ofso-called Oxyd stones. Closed Oxyd stones look like this(there are four different variants, but they all behave the same):

When you touch an Oxyd stone with your marble, it opens and reveals acolor symbol. There are two Oxyd stones with the same symbol in everylandscape. You must touch two matching stones in succession to openthem permanently--if the symbols don't match, the first Oxyd stonecloses again. To finish a landscape you have to find and open all pairsof Oxyd stones. In the following image you see a pair of green Oxydstones that is already open. The question mark inside the blue Oxydstone indicates that the second blue symbol is still hidden somewhere.

By the way: if you have not already done so, now is a good time tostart Enigma and play the first couple of levels!

You can pick up objects on the floor by moving over them. Theinventory at the bottom of the screen displays the list of items inyour possession. At the beginning of a new game you will beequipped with nothing but two spare marbles. The following pictureshows an inventory containing a shovel, a piece of paper, two bars ofdynamite, your extra lifes, and an umbrella:

The leftmost object can be activated by pressing the left mouse button:It will either drop to the floor or perform some action. Dynamite, forexample, starts to burn when you drop it, and springs make your marblejump. Press the right mouse button or use the mouse wheel to reorderthe objects in the inventory.

If, for some reason, you do not want to pick up items, hold down anymouse button while moving around. You may find this useful in a fewsituations.

Many stones can be moved if you push them hard enough. One of themost useful movable stones is the wooden stone, which can be used tobuild bridges across water and abyss. This image shows how to build abridge by dumping wooden stones into the water:

Game objects interact with each other in surprising ways: Objects lyingon the floor, for example, can be transformed using laser beams andmovable stones. And many stones behave differently if you hit them witha particular object in the first slot of your inventory (the magic wandbeing the best-known object in this category).

Last but not least: Don't feel discouraged by the apparent complexityof the game--the behaviour of most objects will become clear in duecourse. Some of the obscurer objects are explained in Some Game Objects.

2.2.2 Two-player landscapes

Some bad news first: Enigma does not yet support Internet or networkgames. In this respect, the two-player landscapes are reallysingle-player landscapes where you can switch between two marbles: theblack one you're already used to, and an additional white marble:

You can tell that you're on a two-player level by the little Yin-Yangsymbol in your inventory. Activating this object switches from theblack to the white marble and vice versa.

2.2.3 Meditation landscapes

In the so-called meditation landscapes your job is quite different:Instead of finding matching Oxyd stones, you have to put a number ofsmall white marbles into pits on the floor. The level is finished assoon as every marble rests in its own pit.

Be careful though: All marbles move together and a sudden mousemovement can easily push some of them out of their pits. Meditationlandscapes usually require a very steady hand and a lot of patience(which is, incidentally, why they are called meditation landscapes!).

There are dozens of different game objects you will see in Enigma'slevels. We just want to describe a small assorted set of them here. Ifyou're new to Enigma, you might want to start with the levels in thetutorial pack? Just start Enigma, choose 'Level Pack', then thebutton 'Enigma' in the upper-left corner, then 'Tutorial' on theright. Start with the first level 'Oxyd Stones 1'. The tutorial willshow you the most important objects and ideas, and some of the easierlevels of Enigma.

3.1 Items

3.1.1 Explosives

There are three types of explosives you can come across in Enigma.The most harmless is the stick of dynamite. It doesn't do much damageto floor tiles or neighboring stones when it explodes, but it isuseful for destroying certain stones and for igniting nearby bombs.

Black bombs are powerful enough to destroy most floor tiles and manyother objects. For most purposes, they are the explosive of choice.White bombs have the explosive power of five black bombs-get awayquickly if you see them burn!

3.1.2 Umbrellas

Use umbrellas to make your marble invulnerable for a short amount oftime (ten seconds to be exact). When you activate an umbrella, a whitehalo will appear around your marble for as long as the protection lasts.If the halo starts to blink, you have three seconds to move your marbleto a safe place.

3.1.3 Flags

Flags are primarily useful on long and dangerous journeys. If yourmarble is destroyed, the new marble will appear where you lastdropped a flag, instead of at the beginning of the level. There are twotypes of flags: a black one and a white one, which set the startingpoint of the black and the white marble respectively.

3.2 Stones

3.2.1 Lethal Stones

There are two kinds of stones that you should avoid at all costs, atleast if you do not have an umbrella to protect your precious marble.

The skull stone is as unhealthy as it looks; touch it andperish. Really, you have been warned. There's an even more cunningvariant that is invisible; don't forget your magic glasses.

The black knight often guards important passageways, and he'sgenerally not in the mood to let you pass. Bring a goodargument to 'convince' him.

3.2.2 Swap Stones

Swap stones do not simply move to an adjacent (empty) field when beingpushed; instead, they change places with the stone they are beingpushed into. The only way to move a swap stone from one place toanother is consequently to repeatedly interchange it with other'normal' stones.

3.2.3 Mirrors

Laser beams can be deflected with the help of mirror stones.There are two types of mirrors in Enigma: plane mirrors and triangularmirrors. A plane mirror behaves like an ordinary mirror: An incominglaser beam is reflected if it is perpendicular to the mirror anddeflected to the left or right if it hits the mirror at an angle of 45degrees.

Triangular mirrors are a little more tricky: The three faces behavelike regular mirrors, either reflecting or deflecting an incidentbeam. But a beam that falls on the tip of the triangle gets splitinto two outgoing beams that travel in opposite directions.

Both types of mirrors can additionally be semitransparent ormovable. Semitransparent mirrors deflect part of the incoming beamjust like their opaque siblings do, but part of the beam continuesunchanged. Movable mirrors are mounted on a light gray stone,immovable mirrors on a dark gray stone.

You can turn mirrors by touching them lightly with your marble. But becareful with mirrors that is already inside a laser beam, it is easy toinadvertently destroy your marble!

3.2.4 Oneway Stones

One can only pass these stones in one direction. Whole labyrinths canbe build out of them, but mostly they force you to complete one partof the level before passing to the next one.

You have problems with a oneway stone that blocks your way? Maybe amagic item is able to help you ....

3.2.5 Shogun Stones

In some levels you will encounter blinking blue dots on the floor.They can be activated with the right combination of shogunstones, whereupon they usually do something useful like opening doorsor creating bridges.

A small blinking dot is activated by moving a shogun stone with asmall hole on top of it. To activate the bigger dots a single shogunstone is not sufficient. Instead, you have to properly stack two or threeshogun stones by pushing stones with small holes into stones withlarger holes. If you want to activate a medium sized dot, forexample, you have to first place a shogun stone with a medium sizedhole on it and then push a small-holed stone into the bigger one.

3.2.6 Bolder Stones

Bolder stones move in the directionshown by the arrow on them until they bump into another stone. Maybethey block your way and you have to get rid of them some way or theother. But never, never stand in front of one, as it shatters yourmarble instantly, when the bolder stone overruns it!

However, you might make use of them, too, as they are able to openoxyds, when they bump into them. And you can redirect the bolderstones in several ways ....

3.2.7 Puzzle Stones

Puzzle stones derive their name from the fact that individual stonescan be put together like the pieces of a puzzle. Puzzle stones havesockets on some or all of their four sides which can attach to socketson adjacent stones. Once linked up, groups of puzzle stones move as aunit. You can use these blocks, for example, to build bridges acrossabyss or water.

When hit with a magic wand, puzzle stones behave differently. If theblock of puzzle stones is fully connected (i.e., it has no opensockets), the block immediately starts to explode, stone by stone. Ifthe block is not fully connected, the stones in the row or column thatwas hit get shifted by one place either horizontally or vertically.

There's a rare variant of the common puzzle stone that behaves alittle differently. The main habitat of this are the levels of Oxyd1, and it's recognizable by the color of its pipes, which is orangeinstead of the usual blue. These puzzle stones cannot be moved as aunit. They behave like the blue puzzle stones do when you hit themwith a magic wand: the block explodes if it's fully connected, orthe touched row or column of the block gets shuffled.

3.2.8 Mail Stones

Mail stones can be used to send items from your inventory to someinaccessible place in the landscape. When you roll against a mailstone, the first object in your inventory gets removed and put at theend of the pipeline attached to the mail stone. In most cases youwill have to build this pipeline yourself, for example by 'mailing'individual pipe objects.

Be careful: the mail stone does not work if there is already an objectat the end of the pipeline. It's very easy to inadvertently sendobjects that afterwards block the pipeline, so be careful!

4.1 User Level Packs

The Level Pack Menu provides some additional features. The`User' group has three level packs that are initially empty:`Auto Folder', `History' and `Search Result'.

By clicking on the `Search' button in the level pack menu you can search inthe pool of levels. Just move the mouse to the text field and enter the string tosearch. You may search within author, title and file name. The search is case insensitve. For example, you can search for the string 'jump'. The resulting levels will be provided as a level pack called 'Search Results'.

The level pack `History' is updated automatically with every level you play.This may be useful if you look for a level you played last week but do not knowthe keywords to search for.

The `Auto Folder' is a level pack that you can use to add newlevels, for example levels you download from the Internet or write yourself. The folder in which you shouldstore the levels is `levels/auto' on the `User Path' as shown inGame Options. Levels in this folder are automatically found andloaded by Enigma when it starts.

Enigma provides many more useful features beyond the scope of this manual.Please read the reference manual for more details.

4.2 Backup

If you are afraid of losing all your scores due to a hard drivefailure, or if you want to transfer your scores from one computer toanother, it is helpful to know how to back up Enigma's statusinformation. To do that, first look up `User Path' from Enigma'sGame Options menu. You can simply back up that folder--theimportant files are `enigma.score' and `state.xml'.

4.3 Registering Scores

For registration of your scores you need to send us the `enigma.score'file located at the folder `User Path'. Please look at the projecthomepage for more detailed instructions.

To automatically download the updated world record score lists you just need toenable the option `Ratings Update'.

4.4 Updating Enigma

If you did not customize your old Enigma version simply deinstall the oldversion and install the new one. That is all you have to do as your scores willbe updated automatically.

Just in case you added levels to the Enigma installation directories you haveto backup them prior deinstallation. After that you can safely deinstall theold version and install the new one.

The old score file `~/.enigmarc2' for systems with a `HOME' environmentvariable or `.../Application Data/enigmarc.lua2' for HOMEless Windows systemsis converted automatically to the new score format. You can remove the old scoreafter the first successful run of Enigma 1.00.

If you want to read levels that you saved from the old installation pleaseread the reference manual.

This chapter contains hints for some of the difficult levels. You arestrongly advised not to read the spoilers unless you arecompletely stuck. Some levels are intentionally difficult and evenveteran Enigma players need hours to solve them. Some levels areeasier to solve in easy game mode (see section The Level Menu).

5.1 Walkthrough for Advanced Tutorial

The landscapes in the 'Tutorial' level pack are supposed to be easy.Except for the last one, which is not .... This section of the manual wascontributed by Jacob Scott.

This walkthrough is for my level 'Advanced Tutorial' in the'Tutorial' level pack (to change level packs, click on 'Level Pack'at the bottom-left of the screen and select a level pack). While youare playing, you should read all the documents in a room as soon aspossible.

The final goal for this level, as for most Enigma levels, is to find andhit 'Oxyd' stones with your black ball. When you hit an oxyd stone, itopens and shows a color. If you hit two oxyd stones of the same color ina row, they will both stay open. Once you've matched up all pairs ofoxyd stones in a level, you have completed the level.

The level contains about twenty rooms, organized into three separateareas. In the first area, you will be encounter some of the basicblocks and floor types you will see in Enigma levels and solve a coupleof simple puzzles. The second area is more challenging and willintroduce you to a useful technique in outthinking an active enemy. Thethird and final area leads you to experiment with more advancedinteractions between Enigma objects. In this particular level, all ofthe oxyd stones can be found in a single room at the end of area 3.

5.1.1 Area 1

You start in a room surrounded by immovable walls except for a gap tothe right, some water near the bottom-left, and a closed gate near thetop-left.

Room 1: Go through the gap in the wall to the right.

Room 2: Simply avoid the blocks with pictures of skulls on them.

Room 3: Push the four wooden blocks into the water in the same row tocreate a bridge to the opposite bank. Now hit the blackish blocks to theright. Move the tan blocks out of the way (maybe to the left) andbridge to the right with the two wooden blocks.

Room 4: Go close to the top. When it begins to chase you, lead it tothe left and around the blocks in the center of the room. Once the topis far enough away from the entrance to the next room, run through.

Room 5: The only dangers here are the skulls near the bottom of theroom. The first floor type is metal--this floor is similar to the'leaves' floor that you have been traveling on so far. The next floortype is 'red'--it is somewhat difficult to slow down or speed up onthis floor. The third floor type is ice--there is little friction onthis floor. The last floor type is space--there is no friction here;you can't change velocity (speed and direction) when you are on thistype of floor.

Room 6: Simply go over the slopes. Then exit to the left by passing overthe 'inverse' floor--when you are on this type of floor and you pushthe mouse (or similar controller) in one direction, the ball speeds upin the opposite direction (if you are having trouble here, try turningyour mouse around 180 degrees).

Room 7: Try to get the extra ball by putting the movable block on thelower trigger. First hit it up one square and then left sixsquares. Next hit it five squares down and two squares to the right.Finally hit it one square up and one square to the left. Take the extraball and then put the block on the other trigger to open the gate in theleft wall of the room.

Room 8: Take the dynamite (you will have to go on the ice) and drop itin front of the yellow blocks to blow them up and get past. The spadeis unnecessary but you should still experiment with it.

Room 9: Hit the lowest movable block to the left. Now the boulderstrying to go to the right are blocking your path. Hit the rightmostmovable block (to the left or to the right) to let the boulderspast. Take the magic wand (don't accidentally hit any boulders whenthe magic wand is in the front of your inventory) and hit the movableblock above the water down. Now go back to the right of the room, putthe magic wand in the front of your inventory, and hit the top threeboulders of the long column (try not to get run over by anyboulders). Hit the leftmost movable block to the left and go into thenext room.

Room 10: Hit the switch. Now hit the two tan blocks up (one squareeach). Hit the middle (from top to bottom) wooden block to the left andthe wooden block that used to be right above it up into the water. Hitthe rest of the blocks into the water in the same column (try not todrown). Now hit the window (the blue line) with high speed. Take theball and cross over to the bridge into the first room. From there gothrough the open gate.

5.1.2 Area 2

In area two, you will encounter a rotor, which is an active enemy ofyour black ball. Different rotors can act slightly differently, but theyare never very smart. The way to get past it is to trick it to do whatyou want it to do, while keeping yourself out of danger.

Look around this area (but don't hit the movable block yet). You need toget through the three closed gates at the top of this area.

First gate: Hit the white ball to the left (don't accidentally gothrough the black one-way block) to free it (this may require a fewtries). Take the spoon and hit the white ball through the white one-wayblock hard enough so that it doesn't get stuck. Now go through the blackone-way block and hit the white ball through the passageway. Hit thewhite ball hard enough through the next white one-way block so itdoesn't get stuck beneath it. Once the white ball is through, use thespoon; you restart at the beginning of the level and are no longertrapped. Go back up through the gate--the first gate near the top ofthis room is open.

Second gate: Hit the movable block in the rightmost room of this area tothe right and run. A document with useful information should appear inthe gate connecting area one and area two. Bring the rotor (by making itchase you, like you did with the top) to above the wall to the right ofthe gate between the first two areas. Run through the gate and go overthe bridge to the room below you. Hit the switch to close the gate andreturn to the room where you initially started. You will no longer beable to see the rotor--it won't be in the room where you will be--butif you look carefully, you will be able to see where it is. The goalhere is to, without exposing yourself to any danger, get the rotor to goto a trigger and open a gate for you. Get the rotor to follow you fromthe top-right of this room to the top-left of the room. It should bepushed to the left by some slopes. Bring the rotor down on the leftuntil it will not continue and you hear the sound of a trigger beingpushed. Hit the switch to open the gate and return to area two--thesecond gate should be open.

Third gate: Simply hit the movable block that the rotor started underto the trigger in the room where it started. Return to the room to yourleft--the third gate should be open. Go through the three opengates.

5.1.3 Area 3

In area three you need to explore the interactions between particularEnigma objects. Here you will find lasers, mirrors, and coins. You willneed to solve a simple laser-and-mirror puzzle to get a laser to hit aparticular stone, which will open a bridge to the next room. To get pastthe next few rooms, you will need to create some new objects by hittingexisting objects with the laser beam.

In the first part of this area there are three mirrors and a laser witha switch.

Room 1: You need to get the laser to hit the black stone. Hit thebottom-left mirror down one square and orient it so that it looks like a' by hitting it slowly (it should be thirty squares directly to theleft of the laser). Hit the top-left mirror eight squares to the left,one square down, and orient it so that it looks like a '/' (it shouldbe four squares directly above the previous mirror). Hit the top-rightmirror two squares up and then three squares to the right (it should betwenty-two squares directly to the right of the previous mirror and onesquare below the black stone). Put this mirror in the '/'orientation. Now hit the switch to turn on the laser (don't get hit byor roll over the laser beam). Once it is completely up, go over thebridge to your right.
