Puzzle solutions SPOILER thread

[Wicked001]

I've got 2 puzzles so far that I can't figure out.
One seems to require co-op... x.X I'm a solo player.
The other is a courtyard with a white door that looks like the glass is cracked.
Any hints or tips would be greatly appreciated.

I figured out the co-op one solo:
You have to position yourself in such a way to click the one button through the wall on the desktop.

So the co-op one can be done with the switch spell. Just move an item to the next switch lock on to it, press the button, then quickly use the switch spell, and press the other button.

As for the cracked class, there's 2 versions of this I've seen. The one that is a full door size you just need to toss an item into the glass with Jostle. Just place an item in front it of, charge up Jostle and it'll shatter the glass. It will also work if you have the artifact that allows you to toss items with telekinesis The second one is in the third zone and it's a cracked window. You'll need to levitate an item, then repeat the above steps.

edit: Post-Coffee correction of spell names I couldn't remember.

I found a room with lightable wood piles that if I lit them all gave me a bag of gold.. but the puzzle is marked incomplete. There is also a sign there that warns against jumping a railing but I cannot figure what it is trying to tell me and I have no means of flight available. Anyone figure this out?

Check your mini-map icons. Is it showing a "?" or a bag icon? If it's the room I'm thinking about then if the bag spawned, you completed the puzzle.
I haven't seen more than one puzzle in a single room but I guess it's possible? However I have had several rooms that had it's own bag sitting there + the bag from the puzzle.

As for flight There is a spell that lets you "fly" that you can unlock but I only recall one puzzle that required that and it was on the second floor


Edit: Is this the room you're talking about?

Yes that is the room. I spawned the bag, but the ? remained and there is a sign in the NW that warned about jumping over the fence.

Here is a list of puzzles I found and completed and remember (some are obscure enough that I cleared it by accident at first)


F1
Soccer -> Goal. (self explanatory)
Burning the portrait. (use fire)
Chess (Just Check without dying)
Tilt picture (Get everything straight or follow the picture guide with broken pillars)
Blue lamps. tilt it.
Music picture (Get a radio from another room, move it in front of the picture, turn on the radio
Freeze fountain
Break two pots.
Lamp post with some on some off (Near fountain in the middle should be some floor buttons to press. Put stuff on/walk on the buttons corresponding to the ones with lights on)

F2
Burn the fireplace (there should be four)
Arranging plants according to element, or just onto the right place.
Make crates big/small and arrange them.
Put the two book podium thing on the circle, then move the purple one to the picture.
Cracked window. Throw something at it. (It might be F1)
Two switches. (Use time or switch spell to get to the other side in time)
3 Potted plants (Use Root to change color to match. Credits to Merfolk)
3 Rooms with lightning bolt power junction/switch thing. (Slash with your... electric sword spell)

F3
Cracked window. (Same as before but you need to fly into the window)
Door surrounded by thorny plants. (Just fly)
Planting stuff in greenhouse(Use the thorn spell on both fields. Need cover the entire field)
Moles crawling through the ground near pumpkins(?) Use fire or something and attack the moving thing. Repeat until it gives up.
6 Potted plants (same as F2)
Holes at pumpkin (Use mouse)
Barn with no locked doors and lots of... cube things and grass. (Destroy all the scattered hay or grass. Barn must be sparkly clean. You can ignore the cubes)
Scarecrow. Magic missile and deflecting it back with shield. Play pingpong with it for a while. Credits to Lezeile

Sun platform at grassy area. (Stand on the sun. Use time to catch the light that appears)
Stone platform at grassy area (Levitate the random rock onto the button on the rock. Then break the five pots)


I can't seem to figure out what to do with the... astrology floor things.

I haven't figured out many of the astronomy ones either

I did encounter one on f2 that took me a bit not on your list

3 flower pots in the middle - use root spell to change their colors to match

Oh right that one. I did that in F3 too. (6 pots instead of 3) Thanks.

Also recently found many button pressing ones. I'll update my list.

There's a way to do the don't-touch-the-purple-floor one before you learn the fly spell - if you've found a floating sphere on the same floor, you can use the imitation spell on it :)

I'm not sure what to do with a couple of the puzzles in F3, there's one with a bunch of pumpkins and a sign saying they're needed for something, and one of the rescued students says teachers frown on smashing pumpkins. Pretty sure I've avoided breaking any a couple of times but nothing special seemed to happen.

The other one has like half a dozen bales of hay and barrels. No obvious clues or hidden areas, just a wide open barn.

Oh, and I'm not sure what the one in F2 with 4 griffin statues and 4 vases wants, either.

hint1: approach the statue in the lower right, does something come up?
if you stand very close to it, you get an 'activate' option - try that and experiment with what happens next

or if you give up, here's the full dirt:
you want to be in mouseform to be fast enough - activate the lower right statue then run to the glowing orb south of you, then the one west of that, then the one west of that, etc. You're basically racing around the level to the statue in the upper right corner. If you make it in time, you solved the secret - if not, well, there's no penalty for just trying again. it look me some practice because if you have to hit the orbs dead center the first time because there's not enough time on the clock to circle back

Oh Griffin statues. Assuming you are talking about the one I am thinking of, go to the bottom one (i only tried the bottom). Interact with it, a ball of light will appear -> touch it -> Another ball of light. You will run around the map. Its basically a timed racetrack thing. Doable with mouse or time slow.

Four vases, I'm assuming its the one with wood in it? Use fire.

I figured it out. The '?' literally means its undiscovered. It could be a secret, or a random spawned bag.

Chances are you completed the puzzle before you explored the entire map. So you missed the non-puzzle bag.

Also found one for the three rooms with a lightning bolt switch.
And the weird barn one with no locked doors. Check my spoiler post. I'm just putting everything together there for easier reading.

have you figured out there is one on f2 with the sciency stuff where a circle in the middle of the room with blue light off it (two concentric circles) no clue what to do here)

Interact with the glowy, then use fly to collect the other 4, without touching the miasma.
