Darkness and Flame 4 walkthrough - All puzzle solutions
After being sucked through the mirror, you need to find out what is going on. Is it all a dream? Note that I won’t give directions throughout this guide (except the forest section, which isn’t available on the map). There’s a handy, fast travel map in the bottom right corner of the screen, which can take you to any currently available location.
Take theMorphing Objectfrom the bed (a1) and theCollectiblefrom the wall (a2). Take thePosterfrom the shelves (a3), open the drawer (a4) to find aHairpin, move the cushions on the bed (a1) to take theRibbon, and grab theLadder(a5).
Place the poster on the floor under the door, use the hairpin on the doorlock (a6) to push the key through, and then pull the poster to take theBroken Key. Reassemble the three key pieces by choosing the broken key in your inventory, then add the ribbon to finish making theKey. Now you may use the key in the door and turn it, then the handle, to open it and go through to theCorridor.
TheMorphing Objectis a picture on the wall (b1), and theCollectibleis the butterfly on the wall (b2). Select the end of the corridor (b3) to start a hidden objects mini-game. You can’t fail these as everything you need is in the image. Just note that if something is in red text, you can’t see it yet. Once complete, you’ll receive theParts Kit.
Select the kit in your inventory to put it together. Hover over each part until your mouse highlights one, then click it to add that part to the kit (also notice the blue shape, which gives you a hint to the next piece). Once complete, you’ll have aBee.
Add the bee to the box on the sofa (b4) to start a movement puzzle. I’ve put the solution below. Once complete, take theCrystal.
Take theTweezersandMatchesfrom the pouches on the door (b5), which reveals the door handle. Open the door and note the lamps are broken. Remove the broken crystal from the first one, and use your crystal to replace it. you’re able to now head through the door and speak to your mom (click your mom to begin).
After the cutscene with your mom, you’ll receive aKey. Grab theCollectiblefrom the wooden panel (c1) and theMorphing Objectfrom the shelves (c2). Use the tweezers on the pink bulb (c3) to receive the musicalHint, and use the tweezers once more on the cupboard latch (c4) to open it and find aSpatulaand aLadle.
Look at the window (c5) and use the spatula to pry it open, taking theSpoonandGlass Spherefrom the windowsill. Now move back to your bedroom and use the hint on the music box in the drawer (a4). Click the three notes that match the image on the hint, and the box will open. Take thePuzzle Pieceand theHintfrom the box.
Move back into the corridor and place the ladder under the animal trophy (b6). Now, you may click the trophy and use the spoon to gain asecond Glass Sphere. Use the key on the door (b7) to find it broken.
Click the four latches in the close-up to remove the front panel, add the hint, and then click the silver knobs until they match the pattern on the hint. The door will now open, and you can go out to the Yard.
TheCollectibleis the bird on the lamp (d1), while theMorphing Objectis on the shed roof (d2). Click the horse for a close-up and take theBrick(d3) blocking the cartwheel. Click the horse’s front legs to find it missing its horseshoes, and then its mane will find you. You also need a horse collar and bridle.

Memory Flashback
Click the gate (d6), move the rocks in the close-up to find the secondHorseshoe, and then go back to the kitchen. Add the two puzzle pieces to the wall cupboard (c6) to start a movement puzzle. If you need a hint for this one, move the three small squares to the positions indicated above, then move the left red box to the position shown to free the first small blue square.
To free the second blue square, move the pieces to the positions above. Finally, slide the two red pieces so that the silver line in them joins up, and the cupboard will open. Take theKnife. Move into the corridor and use the knife to free theBridle(b8).
Look in the shed in the yard (d4) and place the ladle under the red resin on the right side of the close-up. Now you’re able to use the knife on the resin to free it from the wall, knocking it into the ladle to get aLadle Full of Resin. Put the ladle on the stove in the kitchen (c7), click the right cooker button, use the matches to light the stove, and then take theMedallionfrom the ladle.
Select the horse, add the horseshoes, click the nails (on the floor in the close-up) to add them, and then use the hammer to secure them. Add the horse collar, then click the two poles on the floor in the same close-up to attach the cart. Then, add the bridle and the horse will move forward, giving you access to your bag (d7). Use your medallion to open it and take theDiary(it won’t appear in your inventory) and theGate Handle.
Use the gate handle on the gate (d6) to start a movement puzzle. This one is tricky, as when you move a colored piece, it also moves on the other side of the puzzle. The solution is below if you’re stuck.
Once complete, the gage will open. Head through the gate to Colin’s yard.
After a long cut scene, take the birdCollectible(e1) and theMorphing Objectfrom above the treestump (e2). Get theClayfrom the jetty (e3), then click the door (e4) to go inside Colin’s house.

Use the hook in the trees (e6) to take theTied-up Package, and then open it in your inventory to find yoursecond Bear Figurineand aRag.
Head back into Colin’s house and add the bear figurines to the wall safe to open it and findStain Remover. Take it to the yard next, use the rag and stain remover to clean the stone (e7), and use the clay on the pattern. This opens a drawer below, where you’ll find aLever(you also take theCastof the pattern).
Go back into the house and use the lever on the music box (f5), then turn the handle to start a pattern-matching puzzle. Once complete, it should look like the image above. Take theKey. Head back to your house, only to see your mum being kidnapped!
Kidnapping
Select the shed (d4), put the mousetrap on the floor, and use the grain sack already in the clock-up to bait the trap. Take theMouse. Go into the corridor and use the mouse to make the cat chase it, allowing you to take athird Glass Spherefrom the chair (b4). Go back to the yard and follow the kidnappers along the forest path (d8).
Once in the forest, take the left fork in the path (g1) to come to a broken bridge. You need 10 pieces of wood to fix it. Take thefirst Wooden Boardfrom next to the bridge (h1), then move back to the entrance to the forest and take asecond Wooden Board(g2).
Take the right path here (g3) and take thethird Wooden Boardbefore continuing down the path. Clear the moss from the rock (i1) to find yourfourth Wooden Board, then continue forward down the left path (i2).
Use theHorseshoe(j1) to knock down afifth Wooden Board(j2) and then continue forward (j3). Take thesixth Wooden Boardfrom the tree in the middle here (k1), then go left once more (k2).
Use the piece ofSlate(l1) to dig up yourseventh Wooden Board(l2), then move back down the path and take the right fork (k3). Take theeighth Wooden Boardfrom there, then move back three steps to the swampy scene and take the right fork (i3).
Use theStick(m1) to knock down and collect yourninth Wooden Board, then continue down the path (m3). Take yourfinal Wooden Boardthere, and return to the Forest (you may use the map again now). Add the boards to the bridge (h2) and continue to the road.
Fixing the vehicle
After a cutscene with the driver, you’ll receive aWrench. You can spot theCollectibleon the rock face (n1), while theMorphing Objectis on the path (n2). Grab theBoard(n3),Ship in a Bottle(n4), and then move the twigs (n5) to get yourfourth Glass Sphere. In the same close-up, place the board on the rocks here to start a missing objects mini-game (n6). Once complete, take theWheel.
You now need to go right back to your bedroom and add the glass spheres to the hanging ornament (a7) to start a matching puzzle. If you’re stuck, note you click the top of each sphere and swap them around (you need to swap the two on the left with each other and the two on the right with each other).Note the highlighted images.
Go to Colin’s yard next, select the shed (e5), and click the puzzle box inside. Change the switches so that the images from the previous puzzle are highlighted (see the image if you’re stuck), and then take theJack.
Return to the broken vehicle, use the jack to raise it, then click where the missing wheel should be (n7) for a close-up. Add the wheel, use the wrench to tighten it, and thevehicle will be fixed. When it is back upright, you’ll notice you may now access a trunk at the base of the tree (n8). Clear the leaves from the lock in the close-up, use the key to open the trunk, and take theGardening Scissorsfrom inside.
Use the scissors on the weeds blocking the road (n4) to start a puzzle. You need to clear all of the weeds to complete the puzzle. I’ve marked all spots to move to (each time in a straight line from the last marker) on the image above if you’re stuck (the last two are obvious). Once complete, enjoy the cutscene.
The foot of the mountain
You’ll find theMorphing Objectby a fence post (a1) and theCollectiblebird right next to it. Use the hoe on the ground (a2) to find aCorkscrew, take aGrindstonefrom the backpack in the tent (a3), and take theDry LeavesandSnipsfrom the elevator (a4). Use your dull knife on the grindstone in your inventory to get aKnife
Add the leaves to the campfire (a5), use the matches to light it, and then place the cast in the fire. Once it is glowing, use the stick that’s on the ground in the close-up to knock the cast out of the fire. Pick up theHardened Cast. Select the elevator (a4) once more, use the hardened cast as a key on the control mechanism inside, and then click the levers in the close-up to go up.
When you arrive at the top, you need to climb the mountain. As you click the various locations, don’t move forward when rocks are falling, or you’ll have to restart. Turn right (b1) and move through the next two screens to the end of this path. Pick up theMachete, and then head back to where the elevator drops you and take the forward path (b2).
Use the machete to clear your path on the next screen, then move forward to the stairs. Select the left of the screen (c1) to go up them and take theBoardyou find there. Go back down the stairs and click the right of the screen (c2) to move forward. Use the board on the next screen, then carry on along this path.
Go down until you get to the skeleton and take theDynamite. Return to the first screen once more, then take the right path (b1) to where you got the machete and use the dynamite to clear the rockfall there. Head up the steps that clear and you’ll arrive at the Peak.

Use the corkscrew on the ship in a bottle in your inventory to remove the lid, and then use the magnet to retrieve thePart of Mechanism.
Move back up to the peak and use the nail puller to open the box (d6). This begins a placement puzzle, where you need to add all of the parts to their appropriate items. This one is quite tricky, but everything is on the screen, so you can’t fail. I’ve included a picture of the completed puzzle above for guidance.
On completion, you can take theBottle of Winefrom the image.
Select the apples in your inventory, add the wine, and then use the syringe to make anApple for the Hedgehog. Return to the base of the mountain, use the apple to lure the hedgehog (a6), and then capture and take theHedgehogwith the sack.
Return to the peak and use the spear to remove some ice (d7) and reveal theCode (159). Use the part of the mechanism and the code on the circular device (d4) to be able to operate it. This looks tricky, but all you need to do is rotate counter-clockwise until the outer arrow is on 1, then clockwise to place the middle arrow on 5, and finally turn counter-clockwise so the middle arrow is facing 9. Once done, you’ll receive theTriangular Chip.
Head up to the temple and release the hedgehog on the snakes (e4) to clear them. Use the lever (e5) to raise the portcullis in front of the door, select the door (e6), and add the chip to start a jumping puzzle. You need to jump chips over other chips so that only one remains.

Light the torch in the gorgon’s crypt (c1) to get aBurning Torch, which you can then use at the foot of the temple to scare off the scorpion (b2) and take theBottle With Acid.
Head to the treasury next and use the acid on the rust (d1). I’ve included a picture of how to copy the pattern above. The acid will dissolve the rust now, allowing you to take the sword (Roger will take it for now). Note there is a second code in the hole you drew the sword from,1523.
Move to the abandoned library next and select the case on top of the bookshelves (e1). Enter the two codes you have, setting3145on the top row and1523on the bottom row (it won’t work the other way around). The case will pop open, allowing you to take theKey. Use the key to open the padlock (e2), and take theAnchorage. Once you have it, click the room you just opened to start a missing objects minigame. Once you’re done, you’ll receive theBook About Gorgn, which triggers a cut scene.
While still in the temple, you can place the tank, anchorage, lever, and pressure gauge on the spiral staircase (a3). You can nowassemble the device(I’ve pictured it above).

Return to Albert’s house for another cut scene, after which you’ll receive someRope. You can use the rope at the back of Albert’s house (f1) to climb down to the pristine coast. But before you do, head to the town hall. Select the chair at the back of the room (g1) and add the eagle’s head to start a puzzle. You need to move the sliders so that the heads all drop onto the correct animals. I’ve included a solution below.
Once done, you may collecttwo Fangsfrom the compartment behind the puzzle. Head to the pristine coast.
You’ll find theCollectibleon the grass (h1), while theMorphing Objectis by the tree stump (h2). Take theFangin the anchor close-up (h3) before continuing down the path (h4) to the poisonous river.

Use the claw in the crevice (i5) to dig out aHoney Spoon, and then continue forward (i6) to the entrance to the mine.
Entering the mine
After taking theCollectiblefrom the grass (j1) and theMorphing Objecton the path (j2), take theGarden Shovel(j3) andfour Multicolored Chipsfrom the path. They’re all in the same close-up but you have to root around a bit to find them. Also, take theClippersby the mine entrance (j4), theSlingshoton the tree (j5), and then head back to the coast.
Use the saw to cut the tree roots (h5) and then the shovel to dig under the tree. Open the sack there to find aSwimming Mask. Now use the slingshot to knock down the bird’s nest (h6) to get aBrush, and the brush on the statue’s arm on the beach (h3) to raise a rock from the sea. attempt to pick up the figurine on the rock (h7), but you’ll knock it into the water.
Put on your swimming mask and click the water in the close-up to start a missing object mini-game. This one is timed, but everything you need is there in the image, and you may reset the timer by restarting it (there are no tricky parts to it). Once done, you’ll find theOwl Figurine.
Use the clippers on the rock (h7) to take theChainand then attach it to the anchor (h3), taking anAnchor With Chain. Now move back to the mine entrance and use the anchor to move part of the tree (j5), taking thefinal Multicolored Chip. Also, use the spoon to get aSpoon With Honey.
Select the control box next (j6) and add the figurine. When the box opens, add the chips to begin a movement puzzle. If you’re stuck on this one, here’s a solution (make sure to reset the puzzle first). Click the color and then the button on the right the set number of times.
This pops open the door (j4), so you’re able to nowenter the mine.
