140 - Evenly Matched 4141 - Fix the Fossil 2142 - Spinning Maize 3

Fix the Fossil 2 is a puzzle in Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask.

Puzzle

Here's a fossil that's been broken up into bits. It had been fully reconstructed, but sadly, it was broken in an accident.

The fossil was originally a 5 x 5 square. Can you put it back together?

US Version

It's very fragile, so you're only permitted to move lines of five pieces horizontally or vertically. Put it in the center when you've completed it.

Good luck!

UK Version

It's extremely fragile, so in order to prevent it breaking even more, you're only permitted to move lines of five pieces horizontally or vertically.

Good luck!

Hints

Click a Tab to reveal the Hint.

Getting back on track after making a mistake will be quite hard in this puzzle. Make good use of Undo.

You'll want to start off by moving a column up.

Continuing from Hint 1, move a row from the right to the left.

Continuing from Hint 2, move one column down. Next, move one row left. Now you just need one more move to solve it.

US Version

Here's a more specific explanation.
1. Move the second column from the right row one upward.
2. Move the third row from the bottom one column left.
3. Move the middle column one row downward.
4. Move the third row from the top one column left.

Think you can work out the last move now?
