Beetle Temple: Animal Door/Gear Puzzle

I am on the door with the gears, but do not know how/where to find the colored gears everyone is talking about. Would someone please tell me where they are?
Thanks.

Ranger, welcome to the Fish Pond. There should be a key on the top left and top right of the puzzle. Click on each key, note it's shape, and place in correct lower corner. If placed correctly, colored gears will appear on both sides. Click on each gear to move it into your inventory. There should be 7 gears. You need to place them on the pegs so that all gears will move when you turn the handle on the left. Good Luck

I made a grid, poled everything in the grid. NOTHING! I have poked everything that I can find, NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am past frustrated here. I can not find anything that looks like any of the symbols. Even so, if it looked like it had something to do with the symbols, I poked. nothing!! Someone posted something about triangles. Looked for anything that even looked like a triangle. Poked all over, NOTHING!!! Someone said poke and click doing a process of elimination. Did that. NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING. Will one of you please let me know what I am doing wrong or did I waste my money on a game that has a glitch?? I am now past frustrated and getting really mad. Please someone help.

I am starting to believe I will never escape the valley of the gears. I am missing one of those little devils! HELP! But no matter how frustrating the game gets, I really enjoy it. And if someone can point me in the right direction, I really do need some help

I give up. I have no inventory, but all 5 items to find that are blue. They are the rocket, comb,whisk broom, spade. Then there is the #2 gear as well. What is with the rope that the arrow turns blue at in the gear room? No inventory to use.I have all the animals lit except the whale. I have been all over the map and I can see the comb, spade, in a different room. Not in the room where they appear.
I started the game again and now I am stuck there as well. I can't find the page to the manuscript as everything else is found but the one that is hidden. This one is the second part in after the office.

I like hard puzzles but this is ridicules. I have been playing this one on and off for months. I think I will just delete it and stop torturing myself.

Sandi, the items in blue (rocket, comb, whisk, broom, spade) are behind the wall in the picture with the gears. Once you get the gears working correctly (all turning) the wall will disappear and you will find the missing blue items. Also, look on gamezebo for hints. It's terrific! Good luck

I dont know what the deal is, the only things that I have left to find are blue. I dont have any inventory except the gears and they arent in my inventory when I go back to the puzzle. Ive finished the animal puzzle part but I cant get past it the next part! Ive started this level over once and I dont really want to do it again. Can I please get some help?

Yaay!! I got it! Even though nobody replied to me, thanks anyway!

Carisol: Thanks a bunch for your help with the gears!!! Next round is on me!!

Some people don't realize that not EVERYone finds solving a frustrating puzzle to be...fulfilling! Some of us just want to get through a game and find THAT fulfilling. Frustration just raises blood pressure on some of us older folks!

this was a great game........
and i don't think it was that hard, me and my wife form quite a team, solved the whole game without any help.
Fully satisfied, these are the kind of games we love, there is no fun in solving something too easy, keep them coming.

By the way, when I go back to the Map, I can only enter 4 scenes. In these scenes I have located the dragonfly, the snake, the fish and frog. What about the butterfly and the bird? Where are they?

What do you do with the handle below the beetle on the door.

Come on bfgAefean, we REALLY need help here.

Please don't just give us little riddles to try and solve, this door is hard enough.

Pllleeeeaaasee??? With sugar on top???

Thank you

You are blessed....whether games or "games of life"...keep that attitude and God will surely bless and keep you and yours safe... Thank you for listening to this old lady....Sincerely....Gerri

I read 12 pages of the forum until I found your reply, thank you. Unfortunately, I have no keys on the screen where the animals are. I have them all lit up with the proper triangles, but now a stuck because I have no colored gears to deal with. Any more suggestions??

Thank you!

hi first time on forum, got the doors open to see a big red sort of cave is that the end of the game?

OK, I too am lost on the brown gears. I HAD 4 gears now I only have 3 in inventory. No matter what order I put them in they don't all turn.

Desperately seeking help.

silly me figured it out in the end and have now completed the game and it is a great game

Hi! I can't find the last gear, the hint tells me it's near the tree. I think I see it
but the cuser won't pick it up. Please someone help.
