You begin the final time block as Gabriel Knight as the team is being assembled, and the plan set for the journey into the temple to finally learn what's going on and who's behind the kidnapping. Watch the extended cutscene. You'll gain control inside the first room of the temple.

Temple Chess Puzzle
Gabriel, Mosely, and Mesmi stand at the foot of a black and white chessboard scattered with different tiles. The most important tiles to observe are the swords, the skulls, and the blank tiles. When you land on a sword tile, the light under the sword switches off. When you land on a skull tile, it releases from under you, and Gabriel plunges to his death. When you land on a blank tile, you remain standing, but the tile disappears after you move again, meaning you can't return to that tile again.

To solve the chessboard puzzle, you must "move like a knight" and touch all the sword tiles once and only once.

The goal of the puzzle is to step on each sword tile once and only once. Further, you must step on the sword tile in front of the door with the stone circle on it last. When you do, the door with the circle on it opens, letting Gabriel enter the next room.

To receive hints on the puzzle and the room, use your mouse to click on the various tiles and objects in the room and select the radio icon. Gabriel will radio Grace and ask questions about the environment and about the puzzle. The most important thing you learn is that you must move like a knight moves in chess. That is to say, you must move in an L shape. Two steps forward, backward, left, or right, then one step perpendicular to your first movement. Think about the L shape and simply rotate 90 degrees in all directions.
