Solving a Puzzle

See http://www.atitd.org/wiki/tale3/Tests/Test_Of_Empty_Hand/How_To_Play

Two factors: the transformations that the tower can perform, and the position of the pieces on the track.

The transformation only works if the pieces starting from the 'home' position (in front of the opening) match the recipe.

When you hit play, the display on the bottom section lists all seven possible transformations.

One on the first row, then two on each of the remaining three rows

It's the first transform that you want to aim for, as it's the only way in this puzzle to get rid of all the blocks.
