Zoom out and look at the cabinet, you see 3 doors with 3 bottles below. Zoom in on the middle door, drag the 4-pointed star here.

You now have to twist the discs, it is not that difficult. You must make the discs so that each disc consists of 3 side pieces of the same color as the middle. The last side piece must be from the disc that comes before it. Part of the blue disk must come in the green disk, part of the green must come in the red disk. Part of the red must come in the blank disc and part of the blank must come in the blue disc. Watch the screenshot, that's how it should be.

If you can’t find it, here is the solution.

You also see that there is now liquid running in a pipe in front of the 3 bottles.

The doors are closed and to the left of them a drawer opens, zoom in on the contents of the drawer.

Leave the time lens in this position and then set the 3 levers, the bottle will now be filled.

Click on the bottle and drag it a bit to the right. Under the pressure gauge you can also see the connection for a bottle, drag the bottle towards it.

Vapor rises. Next to the pressure gauge you see a handle, pull it down a number of times. The pointer of the pressure gauge then passes the red part.

The door of the boiler slides aside, there you see a familiar object. A holder for the lighter.

Zoom in on the holder and open the lid, drag the lighter here.

Close the cover and pull the ring of the lighter, sparks jump upwards. Fire comes out the pipes on top and the convex head comes up. Take the decorated button out.

Click on the metal cylinder in your inventory and then drag that button there. Push that button into the cylinder and on the other side a square shaft emerges.

Then zoom out a number of times until you are at the front of the sarcophagus. Turn to the right to the double door and go forward, then go left.

Go to the mechanism with the 3 slots, drag the lever with the 4-edged shaft to the right slot.

Then drag it up, the middle cage on the sarcophagus will be lifted. Zoom in on the top of the sarcophagus.

You see a square with a button in the middle, press it and you see a corner of the sarcophagus opens. Zoom out and zoom in on the right corner of the sarcophagus, grab the spire of a tower there.

When the spire is at your inventory you will see a round button in the corner there, press it. You will then see that the square is flipping open on top and a model of a building rises.

Now zoom out a number of times until you are back at the harness. Then zoom in on the top of the helmet of the harness, you need something with 4 points.

Click on the weight in your inventory, you will see that there is 1 point that you cannot slide back. Furthermore, you can see 6 more sliders with which you can push points out.

Then slide a point next to the fixed point outwards, the next one stays in . The next one you slide out again and the next one lets you stay inside again. And the next you pull out again, you now have a shape with 4 points.

2 next to each other and 2 a piece apart. Click this weight back to your inventory. Then drag it to the top of the helmet, then turn the weight around.

The visor of the helmet opens, you see a number of wooden disks. Turn those discs aside, you then have a block of 3 x 3 rolls.

You then see that strange keyhole, drag the special key to it. Turn the key around and the back of the upper leg opens.

There you will find a large lens on a shaft. View this lens in your inventory and then slide the bottom ring up. You then have a lens on a tripod.

Zoom out a few times and then go to the fireplace in the other room. Then zoom in on the fireplace, in front you see round disc with 3 holders.

Drag the lens with the 3-leg towards it, then turn the lens to the right until the light beam falls through the grid on the building on top of the sarcophagus.

Zoom out and zoom in on the building, first look at the back, there is a holder on the platform which is hit by the light beam.

Now go to the right side of the building, there you see that the stairs with the platform is not in right position, slide this to the left.

You can see that the top of the building is rising further.

Turn to the front of the building, there you see 10 ornaments on the side of the new part. Zoom in on the middle one in the top row, you can turn it.

Zoom out and go to the right side again, look at the platform with the stairs. You see that you miss the stairs on one side, zoom in on the platform. Drag the model of the stairs to it. This part then slides, pull that part further down and the latch for the door is pushed away. Pull open the door and there you will find a round disc, take it because you need it.

Zoom out and then look at the new part above. You will see a puzzle with an opening for the disc that you have just found. Zoom in on the puzzle and drag the round disc to the opening.

You now just turn the 3 disks so that there is a path from the bottom left to the bottom right.

Now pull the curl or rope, whatever it is, to the other side. The button then turns around. Zoom out and go to the back of the building, zoom in on the top left puzzle.

You have to get the red plate to the top

When that is done, the locking of the object next to it, is pushed aside. Take that object, in the cavity where this object was, you see a slider. Move it to the left.

To the right a box is opened, take the part that you find there. Click it to your inventory and that new part of the building sinks into the building.

View the part in your inventory, it is a part of the tower. Something else is needed.

Drag the spire of the tower here and turn the spire, at the bottom a screw comes down. The tower is now complete, turn again to the right of the building.

You see that there is a tower missing, zoom in on that. Drag the tower from your inventory to the place of the missing tower and turn the tower to secure it.

You will now see a pillar rising up out of the platform in the front of the building, you will also see two corners slide out

Go to the back of the building and zoom in on the holder on the platform. Click in your inventory on the object with the round disc, then slide the catch upwards at the front.

The round disc opens, pull both halves further down and you have a lens on a long shaft.

Click the lens to your inventory and then drag it to the holder on the platform. Then push the holder down slightly until the light beam falls on the lens.

Then turn the holder with the lens so that the light beam goes to the left. From there the beam continues through the corners to the front, you automatically go to the left side.

There, just under the edge of the roof, see 6 shield-shaped panels, which you have to press in the right order. Number these shields from left to right 1 to 6.

The order is then: 5 - 4 - 6 - 1 - 2 - 3. Bit I think that the solution is randowm

I have found a different order that also works 5-6-4-1-2-3. I do not know if there are other solutions possible, but this puzzle isn't that difficult.

The building sinks down and a tower rises from the dome. Turn the spire to the left until you cannot go any further, underneath the spire a part will now open.

Pull it open completely, you drop a little. You see a wheel hanging there. Turn the wheel anticlockwise until the clamp on the part underneath opens.

Pull this part open further, you will see a wooden cylinder in the middle. Take this.

Click this to your inventory, zoom in on a metal button that is below the 3 wooden pipes. Slide that button down and then slide down the construction with the 3 pipes.

At the bottom of the tower a drawer opens, pull it further out. In the drawer is strange lock mechanism, take this. There is also a letter in the drawer, read this letter.

Zoom out twice and turn to the left, then zoom in on the device in the left-back corner. On the wall next to the device you see a box with 3 rolls with lines.

You have to roll those roles, but that is not yet possible, drag that strange lock there. Now you can rotate the rolls, the colored lines have to go through.

An iron plate now slides up, a cannon ball rolls out of the hole in the wall. This ball rolls into a large auger, zoom in on the big gear.

Drag the wooden handle to the hole in the gear, turn the gear clockwise. Keep turning until you cannot go on, the cannon ball is now up and is rolling through a gutter along the wall.
