They don't do anything but they're really satisfying to solve. be careful, bunch of ppl are just picking this up for the first time ... i didn't realize the environmental puzzles existed until i was hours into the game and that's a "wow" moment i don't wanna deny anyone

I started the Witness. I love the design of it but its giving me panic attacks already because of how much I know im missing, and because I was clearing a set of boards thinking I had the trick figured out and then i get to the last one and nothing I think should work works and i get confused

I'm going to finally conquer the last page of puzzles in My Nintendo Picross - The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess on my flight today. These are really tough puzzles despite being 15x15 and 20x15.

Queen's Rooms 6. This must be the toughest Alcazar puzzle in the game, it's the only one I can't solve.  I think I just continuously fail to find the right (any) region with only one light/dark exit.

Once you get the proverbial ball rolling it's one of the best puzzle game experiences you can have, IMO. Every time I play it I love it a little more. The puzzles are extremely interesting but I agree that it can be frustrating when you thought you had the rules figured out and suddenly they don't work and all your 'equations' fall apart and your stuck bashing your head against the wall until you accidentally bruteforce it and not realize why your solution was correct

I'll be honest, I've googled the solutions to a few puzzles that really stumped me. most of the time (done this 4ish times) I just read strong hints but for the last puzzle in the greenhouse with all the flowers and poo poo I just looked up the solution because my brain just couldn't process what it wanted me to process

Please don't be mean to me you don't have to finish all the areas to beat the game and coming back to something later when you're stuck on it usually helps a lot. at least try that if you hit a wall and go check out a different zone

Have fun Now im going crazy looking for geometric patterns in every piece of architecture I love this game already. ANd I think Im gonna go the slow burn on it and not try to marathon through a bunch of puzzles because that can get overwhelming fast. My go to morning coffee game for the time being

cleared the hedge maze area today and decided to check out the mountain top where the lasers point. Did you know that if you see a mountain in this game, you can walk to it? Simply incredible

I had to go back to the set of boards that teach you and experiment a bit until I realized that what I thought was the trick was a superset that contained the more constrained, actual trick. I think the way the game teaches you is pretty neat.

Its been a while since I solved this one but this looks like one of the ones where you have to abuse the "one unique solution" rule for those regions instead e: nvm now I remember this fucker. I think I focused on the top region first and it took forever

I still dont get the tetronimos so I left that level behind but I found a nice grove with sun tile based puzzles that I figured out and those were fun until I got to sun puzzles combined with tetronimos. I really need to figure those out, and the black/white boxes.

I did the exact same thing. tetris puzzles hosed my head up so i ended up in the tree house with the suns and now im fuckin stuck again on the last puzzle on the little bridge that unfolds with every puzzle u complete. this game makes me feel retarded
