It's almost a completely different path than the one you walked through on the side with the light-up mazes - treat this like a normal puzzle. It was a bit annoying, to be honest.
Eh, sorry, I'm explaining poorly too. I'll try to whip up a image soon.
I think you stand directly behind the puzzle as the water's rising.
For yours I guessed the last column but I think you can stand on the scaffolding near the exit to get another angle.
Oh
I have no idea. Sorry :C stick with it! Believe in the me that believes in you!

I'm just a couple of hours in and holy crap. There are some neat "aha!" moments in the game if you go in cold. I just hope it can hold my interest throughout the rest of the game. Currently stuck near the beginning on some gate that has a puzzle with a plate running through it.
I did that one. You can see the reflection, but only about 3/4 of it will show. You'll have to guess at the last bit, but it's not hard to guess it. Also, what stumped me was the way it reflects. Remember to pay attention to where the starting circle is in the reflection so you're not tracing it the wrong way.

Man this game is driving me insane.
Like I get past a few areas that seem straightforward and now I'm running into brick walls and hitting my head against them trying to figure out the point of some of these puzzles I'm coming across.
Like some with "L" shape blocks in them, or one that's literally just one color puzzle with no color or any kind of code to follow, just a bunch of squares and somehow you are supposed to know what the puzzle is meant to be.
Had to take a break for bit, totally pulling my hair out.

Notice how the panel beeps 'wrong' as you solve it, only to be corrected? That's the three lines.
You have the right idea - the board mostly doesn't match up with the maze.
Going to take a break. The bamboo area is taking its toll and I only solved about 15 panels in this last hour, haha. Still have a lot of places that I wish to explore, though, before going up the mountain.
You mean
when you're already on the outside again? If so, it's straight forward. If you're talking about the broken cable, go to the highest floor you can, then look at the ceiling. Try to think what the colors you have on the panel will look like when subjected to that light

I can't keep up with this thread - just managed to get a couple of hours in.
First I wandered around and ended up in the
area and pretty much beat it directly. Then I went next door to the

I love the stuff they put into the

Wait until the panel gets all the way to one end. Hit the button and then run up to the top of the surrounding structure. Once the panel gets to roughly midway the glare will reveal the pattern.
Pause the game, and press load game

Thanks so much man! I really hate having help on puzzle games but I just don't my enjoyment to go away because of a single puzzle. I've had absolutely no trouble in this game until this room

This one's pretty tricky
It's probably the last step in telling you how stars and squares differ. A star needs to always be in a group of 2 (and no more) with something of the same color, but it doesn't need to be separated from other pairs of stars/squares, no matter the color. You'll have to make two sections with black squares.
Also, oh my god, I'm laughing my ass off now. Finishing the third puzzle in the Bamboo Forest and the fourth
literally has a telephone ring to make it hard to get the sequence <333
You need to lower the water all the way down. This reflection (majority of it) appears when the water is low. Keep raising and lowering to keep putting the reflection together.
You need to be on the opposite side of the room, looking at it, and strafing until you find the glare. Need to pay attention that the pattern is a reflection. This makes it very tricky.
The tail end of it can be spotted from the nearby corner. I forget exactly what the water level should be. Contact me if you need more help.

Remember you did two 'routes' of puzzles to get there - one opened each door. Do the same for the puzzle and use both techniques
I can't go back down tho without having to do every puzzle again.

The puzzle is based on the rules of the previous two. Remember what you did to unlock each gate. Pretty simple once you know that.

Again. Thank you so much. My problem.was not going to the bottom at the beginning

You don't need to do them in order.
If you got the last one you can memorize it and jump straight back to it, and you only need to get one wrong to go back to the start.
Go for half and half. Once you reach the middle with one rule you change to the other

So hypothetically if I found a piece of paper with something on it, is there a way to pick it up or should i just take a screenshot of it? I've tried every button
Error out the puzzle and it'll reset to the bottom.
The very very end?
Like you're outside already? That one acutally plays it straight and is just a normal seperation line puzzle.

Whew, I think(?) I finished the Desert puzzle. It just keeps going!
It's a great moment when you realize the mechanic though. And lastly, hiding a puzzle underneath the elevator, sneaky...
No problem. I guessed 1/4 of it as I never caught that glare

two lines at the same time that are different colors. Halfway through a set of them one color has faded like there isn't enough power and I can't complete it. You can see the color getting fainter as you do more of the puzzle set

I took a picture with my phone of my monitor. It paid off a little while later. Now my Google account has an album titled 'The Witness'.
I need some tips for the Quarry area:
Also, how do I actually pick up
I don't understand the upside-down Y looking objects, or how they affect the pathing I'm supposed to follow on the puzzles. Could someone give me a few tips as to how I should be interpreting the Y's?
Also, how do I actually pick up
audio logs? Apparently I went right by one but I didn't see it nor did I see any way to interact with it
Wait, so you have to follow both rules on the same puzzle? Can't see how it can work.
