I remember getting a hint guide book. It's have the particular issue in red letters and a white background. Under it was a red box with the answer obscured by the red box. You'd use a red filmed decoder to hover over the red box and then read the answer.

Then at one point game companies had a 900 hint line. I finally used it once. I kept on dying and seeing the death cut scene. So I'd pause and reload. And die again. I swore I had the right answer. Finally, I gave in and called the hint line. First and only time. Turned out when you solved the puzzle, it started the same as the death cut scene and then something happened and you make it through alive.
