Hints:

Submitted by. David K
Gate Room:
----------
To get to Gehn's world, you must be able to solve the Gate Room puzzlefirst.
To solve this hard puzzle you first must click 4 times on thebutton in front
of the gate room. Then go to the locked gate by going left when you are
looking at the bridge. Even though the gate is locked, you can get past it
by going under it. Go forward and you will see the gate room and another
passage area. When you get to the switch, turn it on and turn around. Go
forward until you see a lever and another button. First pull down the lever
then press the button 2 times. Go forward to the other passage and do the
same thing again. Go forward to the next passage and press the button 2
times again. This time when you press the button 2 times, the gate is open
and you can get to the fire marble dome.
Sky High:
---------
While you are on Jungle Island, go into the jungle. Take the elevator up to
the 'second' floor of the jungle and start walking up towards the control
throne past the dome. Up about the middle of the stairs leading to the
control throne, turn around and face the dome. To your left, down on the
path underneath, you can see some lights by the side of the road. Click on
the lamp farthest away from the dome to see the last Easter Egg.
Hidden faces:
-------------
At the start of the game, leave Temple Island and then return. Go to where
you started. Next, go to the bottom of the staircase and look down to the
right. Two faces are in the top-left. To find the other three, rotate the
Gate Room (rotating room) until you can enter from the passage under the
gate. Go under the gate, and immediately after you do that, on the right
side of the screen, you will see three faces. You will only see them if you
can enter the room from the place you are in.
For more hidden faces, step outside the cage where you start the game. Turn
left, and look up. One face is just to the left of lower center, hidden in
the rocks. The other is in the lower right corner.
More hidden faces can be seen on Temple Island, after going under the
chained wood gate. The passage to Gateway room at other end must be open.
Look along the right side of the screen. The three children's faces are
Rand Miller's daughters.
Lights on:
----------
Go to Temple Island, the island you started from. Go to the room with the
Whark statues and the temple itself. Make it so you are looking at the
room from the exit (where the Maglav is found) There is a hidden switch
in the left side, on one of the pillars. Press it.
Wire-frame detail:
------------------
Go to where you make the 'sub' descend into the water next to the village
by the lagoon. Go three or four screens toward the village (until you are
looking down a ladder). Then, turn right. You should see a wire-frame view
of the lagoon.
Silly Putty:
------------
Go to the underwater viewing room on Plateau Island. Sit in the chair and
hit the button to face the window. Pull the left hand lever and then look
down at the view screen (the one used to spy on Catherine). Finally, click
on the small round, brown bolt just off to the right of the view screen to
view the Easter Egg movie.
Singing Gehn:
-------------
Go to Ghen's 233rd world (the one you go to using the Fire-Marble Domes).
Go to his bedroom and face the wall with the red tapestry and the star
on it. Click on the D'ni symbol for 5 in the exact center of the star to
see the Easter Egg movie.
Gehn's face:
------------
After you break the lens at the end of the game, look closely at Atrus.
For a brief moment a face will appear. This also happens at the start of
Riven, when Atrus holds up the Linking book to Riven. This was intentional,
so that it felt like Gehn was watching you from the very beginning.
Easter Eggs:
------------
Use the following steps to activate the Easter Eggs in the game. Note:
Click the places just once. You will know if you have done so when the
cursor disappears for a second.
* At the start of the game, exit your cage, go towards the stairs, turn
right and look over the cliff. Click on the unconscious guy.
* Go to Boiler Island. Enter Gehn's lab, find the little chest of drawers
where Gehn keeps bird's eggs. Click on the little orange one.
* Solve the Animal Stone puzzle on Jungle Island. Go to the Moiety Age
and in your prison, click on the little bowl on the table.
* On Jungle Island, go to the submarine. Travel in it to the place with
the five switches. Look out of the window there and you will see the
sub, back on the cliff. Click on it.
Go to Survey Island by taking the Maglev from Boiler Island. Note: You
might have to turn the Maglev around and then get out. Go to the room
with a long handle. Pull it, and a lift will appear from the floor. Do
not go into the lift, but from where you are, click on the little star
on the top of the lift.
Finally, take the Maglev from Jungle Island to Temple Island, or travel
there by linking book. When you are next to the blue button near the
Maglev station, turn left. You will see a triangle of light. If you
look very closely, you will see the letters RAWA, the nickname of one
of the Riven programmers, Richard A. Watson. Click on the letters to
activate the remaining Easter Eggs in the game, as follows.
