You are in Florence, in the same tower where you ended up in The house of Da Vinci 1.
You see that the mysterious man takes the iron glove. You got up slowly.
In front of you you see a chest and on the left near the wall you see a handle / crank. Grab the handle / crank.
Then zoom in on the box. On the front you see the lock and 2 emblems, golden French Lilies,
zoom in on the right emblem and turn the lily.
A door opens and a wooden wheel rolls out. Take the wheel
in your inventory you turn the metal ring that's on the wheel and then you turn the halfs and you'll have a wooden gear
Turn around, on the left you see a doll lying on a thick wooden beam, take the doll. It is an Leonardo doll
Zoom out and turn right, you will see shelves in front of a window. To the right of the boards you see a rectangular plate with a hole, at the bottom right of that plate you see a hole. Zoom in on that hole and drag the handle to that hole, after a quarter turn the plate falls.
Drag the gear to that hole, turn the handle and the shelves next to it will be folded out.
You see 6 gears and 6 levers, you also see 2 long bars that block a drawer.
If you pull the right levers, the gears turn clockwise, if you pull the left levers, the gears turn counterclockwise.
You have to slide the long rods upwards so that the drawer can open.
There are catches on the gears and the long rods are also catches, if a catch on a gear wheel hits a catch on the rod, the rod moves up or down.
When both bars are at the top, pull the drawer all the way out, then take the key.
Zoom out and go back to the chest, Now zoom in on the lock.
View the Folding key in your inventory and you will see that you have to adjust the key to the lock.
Then drag the key to the lock and turn the key until the lid of the chest opens.
You will get the key back, open the lid further. Then zoom in on the top right of the box, you will see 2 screws that you can rotate.
Set the opening of the two screws to the side of the box, then pull the handle of the box..
Zoom out and go to the drawer under the gears, zoom in even more and drag the handle to the drawer.
Pull the handle down, the long rods slide down and the gears disappear.
You get back the golden sphere, the Oculus Perpetua. Take and read the letter and then take the Oculus Perpetua, it has a new function.
Click on the golden sphere and go to the past.
On the other side you see 3 shelves on the wall. Zoom in on the bottom shelf, turn the stand on the shelf clockwise until the arrows point to each other.
The shelf folds double, you see a metal eye in the shelf. Take the metal eye and you will see that there is also a hook on it.
Then zoom in on the bottom of the second plank, drag the eye to the slot in the plank.
Pull the eye to the left, now you can move the metal blocks, the board breaks in half.
Zoom in on the left support of the top shelf, slide the support to the left and the shelf now hangs vertically.
It is a hidden door, open the door further. Enter, zoom in on the box. You will see 3 buttons and a lever on the side.
Click on the Oculus Perpetua and now you will see the extra feature that Leonardo has added.
You can now also use the magic eye, through the magic eye you can now see the contents of the box.
Slide the large gear to the side and up, then drag the gear down and up and to the left.
Then drag the middle gear to the left until it stops.
Pull the handle and you go up with the hidden lift, you see that mysterious figure again.
You are shocked and you are back in the present, but now on the next floor. There is a large table in the middle, there are 6 poles around it.
Look through the Oculus, you will see black spots with numbers and symbols on them.
Zoom in on those black spots on all 6 poles and........
.......the numbers and the symbols are noted down in your notebook. One pole has no number
Then zoom in on the center of the table, drag the figure of Leonardo to the center and see what happens.
You now see a building with 4 towers, to the right of that building you see a machine with a roll of text.
Zoom in on the text to read it, the text is also in your notebook. Zoom in on the building, on the towers are blocks with symbols on top.
In the screenshot the blocks on the towers are numbered as A, B, C, D. In the middle of the 4 towers is a metal ring and a thick push button. There are also 4 blocks attached to the metal ring and each block has a symbol. You can rotate the ring with those 4 blocks. Turn the ring a quarter turn so that the blocks of the ring are between the towers.
You see that on the towers are also those symbols, you have to rotate the correct symbols one above the other. Then click on the button in the middle, you will see the 2 blocks closest to the text machine turn around. This way you can put all symbols in the right place.
If the symbols are correct, the door opens and a figure comes out.
This figure follows a trail and then stands for a large round, from this round the church comes up.
The new text is beeing added in your note book. Zoom out en then zoom in on the back sideof the second building,
....on the back you see a network of tiles.
You have to move these tiles, the yellow tiles are fixed. You must move all the blue tiles until they are in the golden network.
Some tiles have white dots, the white dots determine which edge they should be against.
The same letters should be opposite each other, the white dots should be along the edge of the yellow network.
It must be like this in the end....
When all letters are in the right place then the rectangle turns around and you see an image.
The top of the dome rises, zoom in on the spire and rotate the spire. You can now open the dome roof.
There you will find a bronze frame that has been pushed together. Take that frame and the roof will close,
the figure will continue and 2 more buildings will rise. You will see a new part of the text on the text machine.
Zoom in on the lower part of the tower, the tower is a model of the tower from the first part of The House of Da Vinci.
You see a bronze handle there, take that handle.
Zoom out and zoom in on the other building, at the back of that building you see 2 holes, drag that handle there.
Then pull up the wall and part of the roof.
Zoom in on the candle, on the device behind the candle you see a copper button. That copper button is part of the flint device
Pull that button to the right and you will see sparks, do that several times and the candle will be lit
You are then zoomed in on the tower again. In your inventory you now have to unfold that folded frame, you then have a wheel with slides.
Next to the mirror you see a holder, drag the slides wheel to the holder.
The wheel turns and the tower opens, a white cloth is unfolded.
Zoom out and then zoom in on the front part of the building with the wheel.
On top of the front of that building you see a lens, take the lens out because it is dirty.
On the floor of the open part of the building you see a star-shaped device, take that star-shaped object.
You now see a beam of light. Zoom out and zoom in on the edge of the table, there are 8 ornaments on the edge, but 1 ornament is different.
Find that different ornament. You will also see a yellow handle under the ornament, which is now on the left.
Turn 1 of the 2 "butterfly" parts a quarter turn to the right, then move the yellow lever to the right and then turn the part a quarter turn to the left again.
The middle part opens, pull the lid open and a polisher for lenses comes out. Drag the dirty lens to the machine and press the top part of the machine.
A little later you have a polished lens, take the lens back.
Now that the lens is clean, you have to put it back on the building,
you will see a slideshow on the white screen.
You will see slides of 4 different shapes, you have to press these shapes in the right order on the spire of the tower.
Zoom in on the spire of the tower and then press those 4 shapes you saw in the slideshow.
When you have pressed it in the right order, the tower closes and drops down. You automatically zoom in on the text machine, a lever has also gone up.
Zoom out of the machine and the roll of the machine comes off, take the roll.
All buildings will now sink back into the table. Zoom out, on the other side of the table you see 2 narrow cupboards with strange locks on the doors.
Go to the right cabinet and zoom in on the keyhole.
You still have that strange folding key in your inventory. So adjust the folding key now to fit into the keyhole adjust the key at the lock.
Then put the key into the keyhole and then turn the key. Then pull the doors open and you will see a chain with a tube with 2 handles in the middle.
Pull the handles down and the chain will separate.
Part of the floor drops and there you see a staircase going down. Go down and there is the wooden chest again
Now zoom in on the left side of the chest. Then drag the star-shaped knob to the copper knob with a cross and then turn the knob.
A hatch opens on the front left, a metal handle falls out. Take the metal handle
In your inventory, combine the roll with the handle, then slide the handle towards the roll and you then have a roll with a handle.
Go back upstairs and now zoom in on the cupboard on the left.
You must adjust the foolding key to this keyhole
Then insert the key, turn the key and pull the doors open, inside you will see a chain with a rectangular holder in the middle.
Drag the roll with a holder to the rectangle, you have to enter a code here.
You now need the notes, the numbers and the symbols on the posts around the table.
Je need to figure out the missing number of the 4th pole. Look at the drawing of the poles in your notebook
Start at the pole at the bottom right, at the arrows. Those arrows point to the 0507 post, witch is your startin g post
The first number is then 0507 and the second number is 1015: the relationship is x 2 + 1 =
0507 x 2 + 1 = 1015
1015 x 2 + 1 = 2031
2031 x 2 + 1 = 4063
4063 x 2 + 1 = 8127
So the number of the 4th pole is 4063. You must enter this number on the roll,
the holder with the roll will rotate and a staircase will come down. Go up the stairs, above you see a holder for a handle on the right but you still miss the handle.
On the left opposite the handle you see a pole, click on the button on top of that pole and you can then pick up a wooden rose.
Go back down one floor, you will see all doors or panels with a wooden rose in the middle except 1 door.
Zoom in on the center of that door and drag the wooden rose to the hole.
A panel turns around and there you find the handle, grab the handle and go back upstairs.
Zoom in on the holder on the right and....
....... drag the handle to the holder, pull the handle down
A piece of cloth with ropes appears...it's a parachute......
click on the ropes and you fly out. You let go of the ropes and you fall on a pile of straw in a courtyard.
You see 3 pedestals, on the left pedestal is a pot with flowers. On the pedestal in the middle is a statue and on the right pedestal is a small pyramid.
There is a well against the wall and in the middle of the ground is a drain with a grate.
Click on the drain with the grid, you will see a lever under the grid.
Click on the Oculus, you will see gears and an axle that goes to the pedestal with the flowers.
Zoom in on the flowers and then zoom in on the edge of the base, you will see gears and springs.
Turn the wheels A and B left until the blue catches fully compress the springs.
Then you can turn the bronze knob and the shaft starts to rotate and the grate above the drain slides away.
Then take the handle from the drain.
Go to the well, on the lid you see 4 ornaments and the middle 2 you can move.
You will see a cross-shaped hole on the front edge, drag the handle to that hole and.....
....... turn the handle counterclockwise. The plate drops and you see the next puzzle, zoom in on the puzzle.
You will see 7 symbols and these must first be placed in the correct order on the centerline.
Click on the Oculus and you will see the order of the symbols at the top.
At the bottom are numbers 1 to 7, if the symbols are correct, you have to slide the symbols up in the order 1 - 7.
You can use the middle slit to move the symbols in to the right order
Then slide all symbols up, in the 1 till 7 order and.....
When you have put everything correctly, the lid of the well opens.
Go to the right and zoom in on the edge, you will see a stone flower with 2 copper arrows.
Turn the flower so that the arrows point to each other.......
.....a flap opens containing part of a mechanism. Take that part of a mechanism and view it in your inventory,
a part is missing. Go back to the flower pot and zoom in on it again. between the flowers you will find a wing nut, take that nut.
In inventory drag the wing nut to the part. Turn the wing nut clockwise and you have a rotary wheel for a winch.
Zoom out and then zoom in on the gears above, drag the wheel to the shaft.
Turn the wheel counterclockwise and a scale will rise. Take the stone ornament from the bowl.
Then go to the pedestal with the small pyramid, drag the ornament to the front of the pedestal.
The pyramid opens and you see a mask,
zoom in and take the mask.
Then go to the pedestal with the statue and zoom in on the head. Drag the mask to the head, the front of the base opens.
Pull the handle and a capsule falls from the roof and into the hands of the statue
Take the capsule from the statue's hands.
Go back to the base of the little pyramid, put the capsule in the base.
Then click on the Oculus and you will see numbers on the capsule, you will also see roman numbers on the copper triangles.
You see 4 disks with numbers, you now have to rotate the disks so that the sum of the column of numbers is equal to the number of the roman number. You have to puzzle, I think the best way is to start with the number XI. There are only 2 numbers 4 on the discs and they must both be above XI, you should not twist these discs anymore. Then look at the number IV, you can only make that with 4 x the number 1 and you may not rotate 2 discs.After that it is not so difficult anymore.
NB from Louis: On like Dick I found it easier to make the VI and the V good, with XI in the middle. You only have to do 2 of the Roman Numerals to solve this puzzle
The top of the capsule opens, pull it further open and take the letter out of the capsule.
When you have clicked away the letter, Leonardo will enter the courtyard.
After Leonardo has finished speaking, you go to Turin.
