The aim of the puzzle is to recreate the original picture by flipping over the individual pieces. Clicking on the buttons on the sides of the frame flip the pictures on that row either forwards or backwards. Clicking on the buttons on the top and bottom of the frame do the same with the vertical columns.  
Your goal is to close all the coffin lids, there is a simple pattern to the way the lids open and close. When one of the corner coffins is clicked the three lids adjacent to it in the shape of a square flip from open to closed or vice versa. Click on the lids in the center of the sides and all three lids on that edge flip. Clicking on the center coffin flips the lids of the adjacent coffins horizontally and vertically.

==Solution==
Start off by flipping the columns until the centre row of the picture is correct. Then flip the top row until it is correct then do the same with the bottom row. If you get an odd square on any of the rows then the puzzle is unsolvable and you will have to restart it.  
As the layout of the coffin lids is random at the start there is no set solution to the problem but try and get the lids into a symmetrical layout as this makes it easier to close them all.

Your goal is to close all the coffin lids, there is a simple pattern to the way the lids open and close. When one of the corner coffins is clicked the three lids adjacent to it in the shape of a square flip from open to closed or vice versa. Click on the lids in the center of the sides and all three lids on that edge flip. Clicking on the center coffin flips the lids of the adjacent coffins horizontally and vertically.

Solution

As the layout of the coffin lids is random at the start there is no set solution to the problem but try and get the lids into a symmetrical layout as this makes it easier to close them all.
