Certain hotspots in each scene make the cursor turn into a set of moving gears, alerting you that one of the items you piece together fits here. The puzzles are what make Mortimer Beckett and the Time Paradox so interesting to play. Once you complete them all, you'll gain access to the portal and move on to a new area.

There are eight settings in all, ranging from the "ordinary" (a pub filled with vikings) to the strange (Big Ben in the Nile River?!). Within each time period you can travel between these scenes, solving puzzles and collecting items as you go along.
