Puzzle method

Match the puzzle object before copying an answer

Several Servant of the Lake objects look related but belong to different locks. Identify the room and object first, then use the smallest focused route that owns that task.

  1. 01

    Use stripe counts only for the five metal cups and take their Coin to the carriage driver.

  2. 02

    Treat the Roach board as a reachability puzzle; preserve a side for the next light-stone push.

  3. 03

    In the attic, separate four missing statue pickups from the Gold Box's five final match positions.

  4. 04

    Check the day and room before entering 281 or 374 because both codes are valid for different locks.

  5. 05

    For Stone Tablets, verify the Roach, Flower, and Mailbox sources before changing the final two-row order.
