There were previously no instructions in this level: it was assumed that you have played the first quest and so could figure out what to do. But it's a hard level and it is not obvious that a thread will appear once you solve the puzzle. We have this nice musician character. Use him again. Write some introductory dialogue, along with some extremely direct hints for each round of the puzzle. (Figuring out the melody is not meant to be the hard part: evading the guards is.) Redesign the first island slightly so that the player & musician are not obscured by the dialogue balloon. It's quite hard to get back to him once you solve the puzzle. Add a joke to his dialogue once the puzzle is solved to reward the player who manages to do so. Add a run hint to the level. Again I assumed for this proof of concept that the player knew how to do this, but it's kind to remind them!
