Befuddle.gif (903 bytes) If all you want is a hint, then that information is in the table.  You can also watch the film for a hint.  The films are short, and usually show a trick or move useful (or crucial) in solving a puzzle.
Befuddle.gif (903 bytes) Clicking on a level number will give a complete solution to the level.  No hints here, these are step by step solutions to the puzzle.  (If you don't read the solution, you can use the labeled picture as a pretty detailed hint...)
Befuddle.gif (903 bytes) Screen Cam files are available for levels which have an icon in the Film column.  Click on the icon to get that level's movie.  These files are zipped, and need the Screen Cam Player (see Files & Resources).
