 Almost open but...
Finally I succeeded in opening it !!!

Thank you for your suggestions !!!
But I already succeeded in opening it !
The third BB had moved away in the maze so I had to replace it , then it was easy to replay clue 6 to 10.

Once opened, it was obvious to understand that the Isis can lock again when unscrewing it to 180°...

Now, I'm beginning to solve the pyramids riddles... Tough task!!!

Regards from France,

Corto

clues

Yep, you got it. Its as simple as that although be warned, one of the clues has a typo ( i think they did it to try to confuse us. worked with me!)

good luck solving the clues and the isis. Remember the 11th clue

Re:Stuck

I have managed to turn the top half about 30 degrees Anticlockwise where it is stuck and will not rotate either way. I can hear the balls rattle as though they are in a confined space and they don't roll around. Have I messed it up to where it will not work? The plunger goes all the way down, I think.
Thanks.

not messed up, pretend they are still lined up, it doesn't make a difference.

Isis adventure forum

Can anybody let me know what as happened to the Isis Web site.
No more free searchers and no more free forum.
I offered to pay £20 per year to use the web site but got no response.
As this adventure gone down hill or is it about making money.

I was enjoying the free hunts - gave me something to do at the weekends. now I will have to buy the puzzle just to go hunting.

I'm a Freakin Idiot

Has anybody tried the "bucket theory" method with success? Me being an idiot I forgot to put the bb back inside and locked my Isis. Bang Head
The bucket theory is my only hope of ever opening it again. I've unlocked the thing a hundred times and I just spaced it today.

If anyone has successfully used the method please tell me, I don't want to waste my time with it if it doesn't work.

Thanks. I've been trying it for about an hour with no luck. Any tips you can give me? How long did it take you?

I did it under a chair. Sit on a dining chair (or other fairly thin one.. like not a sofa) the slam it into the underside. You have to twist it at exactly the same time then unscrew quickly.

Thanks so much! I had been trying to do it the wrong way. With that last tip you gave me, I had it opened in less than a minute. I really though I had ruined my Isis by being stupid so thanks again! Very Happy
