Hints for the puzzles are given incrementally and all the spoilers are behind a big red button so you don't see them accidentally.

This isn't a typical walkthrough - it's a granular hint system that will talk you through puzzles step-by-step and only explicitly tell you the solutions if you want them at the end.

This low spoiler guide for The Excavation of Hob's Barrow is hosted on the Nice Game Hints website, as building it on Steam would be too much work.

I'm glad they could help you, pinstripeowl! Well done on getting so far solo!

Thank you so much for this! I was stuck on one puzzle because I was translating something into a different language (or instrument, shall we say) and didn't want to be spoiled as I'd done the rest solo until that point. Super appreciate staged clues thank you xxx

No problem, and thanks for the kind words - I hope you enjoy the game!

I find a hint-based walkthrough system like this perfect for games such as these. This is really helpful, thanks for the guide.

Ok ,i could give you loads of links for steam walk-through guides but i won't :)

Westy [author] 26 Oct, 2022 @ 10:54am

Lol, sure. It's more to do with the website making it possible to properly hide and 'stage' text, the best I could do on Steam would be a hell of a lot of spoiler tags

I know ,terrible innit , i tried building some text this morning ,worse than Meccano.
