       One solution for the Microscope Puzzle in The Seventh Guest       
ͼ

This solution will only work if you can make the computer duplicate the first
ten moves.  Restart the puzzle as many times as necessary to do this.  All
moves are "replicating" moves unless the symbol "->" is included in the move.
This symbol means to move the ball from the first specified cell into the next
specified cell.  Always watch the computer's moves to insure that it is
following the pattern.  All moves are based on the following board numbering
scheme:

                              A B C D E F G
                             Ŀ

Don't be fooled by Ego's comment near the end of your moves.  He will tell
you that you are going to have to start again.  WRONG!!  Keep going until
you complete all of the moves.

This may not be the shortest route but after 5 hours I was elated to have
ONE repeatable solution.  If anyone can find a quicker solution, please let
me know.  Have fun!!
