Is there anything in the bowl? Any writing on or around it? What about where it was rested, anything suspicious where it was placed?

Nope, just a bowl. Just because something is there doesn't necessarily mean it will be of much use. ...especially considering for the most part I'm only keeping a room or two ahead of you in this.

Eh... before angrily tossing it across the room, perhaps I'll hold onto it and return to the main room I started it and enter the other door(use the key if that 2nd door is locked)

You walk back to the other room, dropping the bowl to the ground as you open the door with the key you had found earlier. You pick up the torch you left on the ground and then head through the door.

The next room is much larger than all of the previous rooms. There are doorways to your left and right, and ahead of you is a gigantic structure in the center of the room, somewhat resembling a slot machine. At the base of it is 3 chests and in front of those are 4 tiles on the ground raised upward, one slightly further away than the rest. On the 3 parts making up the 'wheel' of the structure there are a picture of a circle, square, and triangle respectively.

Can I bring the bowl into this room at all?

Yeah, but considering you're limited in what you can carry all at once it means you technically have to go back, grab it, bring it back, drop it and grab what you were carrying before. I'm not going to make you have to go back to previous rooms again to do so though, I'll just take more energy off of your character than I normally would (which, once again isn't much of a big deal yet).

Assuming you're going to do that: You're in the same room still, there is a bronze bowl next to you.

So let me try to picture this:

Code:
-------slot machine thing-------

[c]---[c]---[c]

[t]---[t]---[t]-------[t]
Right?

[c] = chest
[t] = tile

I'll place the bowl on the tile that is closest to the furthest tile in this case and run like hell in case it's a trap lol. I don't trust that farther out tile... just yet!

Yeah, you got it right. Basically the pictures on the slot machine, the chests and tiles are all lined up... except for the last one. And, you're trying it on the third [t], right?

You place the bronze bowl on the right tile, closest to the far off one. The bowl doesn't seem heavy enough to affect the tile.

...Also, if you want I can try to do image sort of things for the rooms. You think this will help much?

Code:
 
|????????????????|
|????????????????|
|....|O|[]|^|....|
|....|C..C.C|....|
|.....T..T.T...T.|
=................=
|.......=........|
 
O - Circle. / [] - Square. / ^ - Triangle. / C - Chest. / T -Tile. / = - Doorway. / | - Wall / ? -Unknown area / . - Floor space.

You don't have to do pictures for all of the rooms. Like the first two rooms were easy enough to picture but if there seems to be a lot of things in the room then feel free to. Thanks for the picture.

Bah!! Then I shall step on the 'third' tile myself and see what happens.

You step on the third tile, it sinks downward from your weight. The slot machine rumbles and all of the wheels on it begin to spin. The first one rolls downwards slightly, changing the circle to a triangle. The second rolls upwards slightly, from a square to a triangle. And the third rolls downwards, from a triangle to a square and then ending its roll on a circle.

^ ^ O

You step off of the tile and it raises back into its normal position. (The tile, not the wheels on the slot machine)

I'll step on the same tile, to make sure the pattern is consistent. Then I think I may know what to do.

Hmm, I say disregard my math in case I'm wrong.. just thinking aloud.

I THINK that if I continue to press this one button it'll eventually resolve itself. Now question is...

C = 0
S = 1
T = 2

Slot #1 = -1
Slot #2 = +1
Slot #3 = +2

So currently:
202

Now:
111

Really? Was I really that lucky? Now all three of them should be squares. I'll step on the third tile once.

Close. Slot 3 is -2 though, not +. Also, its Square, Circle, Square; not triangle, circle, triangle - though that wouldn't really be right either...

You press down the third tile. The slots spin once more, landing back into the original position.

Tile 3, followed by Tile 2? Alright.

The wheel of the slot machine spins once as you step on the third tile, leaving it in the following position.

^ ^ O

You step over to the second tile, it sinking under your weight. The wheel spins. The first rolls downward completely, landing in the same spot it previously was. The second rolls upward, from triangle to circle then to square. The last spins upward once, ending on square.

^ [] []

That was actually a stupid step. I should have skipped #3 since I know what it does. I can't press the 'fourth' tile just yet(assuming it resets the puzzle) so let me press Tile #2 once more. It seems that I can only press in 3 tiles thus far before resetting?

Yep... Three of any tile will pretty much make it so you never stepped on the tile in the first place... which is good since it cuts down on the total number of options you have to go through.

You press the second tile once more. It spins and ends up in the following pattern:

^ O ^

Oh, I was expecting the puzzle to reset now. I'll push tile #1 in the meantime though. If that doesn't reset the puzzle then I want to push tile #4. And then with all that information I can devise an ultimate post hopefully, heh.
