"Conundrum Unsolved" Bugged?

[PhamTrinli]

If I understand this correctly, you're supposed to place each piece so that each end matches the symbols on any adjacent pieces.

However, each single-tile piece only goes into one specific slot, and I've already placed them as you see below.

But there is no two-tile piece which matches both symbols on the single-tile pieces adjacent to the two-tile slot.

Ok.. nvm. I figured it out. It looks like you don't have to match the first two-tile piece with the two single-tile pieces' symbols on the outside... A bit misleading, IMO, given the nature of the rest of the puzzle.

Finally solved it, no idea how. Just kept dropping slabs at random and finally it was done.

Think of the slabs as domino pieces. You are placing them so that the ends match the adjacent symbols.

The misleading part is that you need to click the 'hand' nearest a finished piece to put in the next domino, clicking the other end will show you an empty inventory.

This is correct as far as it goes, but there are 4 different configurations that are allowed. This makes sense, as if there is one valid configuration then there must be 4 valid configurations that follow this rule, via rotating by 90 degrees around the central pivot.

It appears that you have to start with the tile that doesn't match either of the two outer tiles. If you do this by accident, then the puzzle seems trivial. It isn't, if you aren't lucky...

So the trick is to match not the inner tiles but the outer ones (the ones you HAVENT placed). Then its easy and the ghost appears.

I do NOT understand why that's the case. Like, it seems like you should match the ones on the inside - like the dominos they resemble...still, this worked, so thank you so much!

[mreed2]

Yeah, that's what I and the OP and everyone else thought.

The thing is that none of the 4 tiles you have match both of the outer tiles. You can match one outer tile, or the other outer tile, but never both.

Thankfully the image provided by mreed2 works, so anyone that is stuck should just copy that.

I agree it's a rotten puzzle. Attempting to follow the pattern of symbols shown on the wall just messes with your head.

Yea, now that I knew they moved the tabs(tokens or whatever), I resolved it quite easy. Just didnt know where they put the tokens.

My main problem with this puzzle is that it is so poorly implemented that my first though wasn't "I'm dumb and getting the puzzle wrong." My first thought was "how has the game broken this time?"

Didn't help that things glitched up and I was left with 4 fixed floating hands on my screen and no door icon to exit the cave. Oh and I dropped a tablet from my inventory and it disappeared, so I had to reload a save for two reasons

I hate this puzzle. I know that each tile has two hands, each hand supposed to determind the direction the tile is paced. But that does not seem to work, and ii cannot arange the tiles as per the picture. I tried having myy character in different positions, different view angles, and such, no go.

This is a perfect example of a puzzle that is not intuitive or bugged.

lame

Where is the actual clue on how to do this? It just seemed like a completely vague and arbitrary puzzle that you either have to guess at, or look up the solution for. Even when I read about how it is supposed to be done, there's still only a single solution, despite actually lining them up so that each outer end matched that was different from the single solution.

hated it

I've solved the puzzle but nothing happens. No ghost, the puzzle doesn't open the other room. Is mine glitched or bugged?

I had the same problem. Try restarting the game and doing the puzzle again. Annoying .

The outer fields. All symbols in that line must match them.

There's two rules to this puzzle, one that is enforced (you can only place pieces that match adjacent ones) and one that isn't but the puzzle won't count as solved if you don't follow (a line or row may not contain symbols that don't match the ones outside the grid). What you place on the lines and rows with no outside symbols doesn't matter, though there aren't that many options.

The very worst thing about this puzzle is that you can't remotely tell which pieces you're looking at in your inventory. You're basically laying different colored bricks except you only see in black and white. I've solved the puzzle a couple of times already and I still end up just brute forcing the thing and cussing out the developers for poor life decisions.
