[potential spoilers] statues
Has anyone figured out what to do with the statues? I mean those things in the circles with all the smaller statues lying around it. It seems like you have to place the correct ones in the correct spaces, but no combination has worked by now, and I have started carrying statues all over the island to try them on other circles. I may have messed up any order that was ever given at the beginning ^^

If you click on the biggest one it will give you a hint !

From the couple I've gotten, it seems less about location and more about their features. Like Igor said, the big one gives you a hint. But it's more a process of elimination puzzle. I haven't run into any yet that need to go from one site to another.

Though if you've carried them all over the island... oh dear. That makes solving harder if you don't know which one came from which circle. :'(

Igor, a "reset puzzle" option might be a good idea in a scenario like this. Just magically despawn and respawn all the statues back to their original places. Maybe as an option at the big one for each, or an altar ritual that does all circles. Whichever is easier to implement. Might exist already but I haven't seen anything yet in my travels to reset.

Also, having them weighted toward trying to stand up more would be a nice-to-have. Sometimes their spawn points, you can't see all their features. So I pick them up, look, but if I try to put them down to compare some, they usually fall over, even on level ground. And with my luck, face down too!

You cant always interact with the big statue. A lot of the items in the game take several tries to click on them which can make you go nuts wondering if it is the game or you. maybe it is also a localisation of language issue but the hints are terrible.

All of the statues are made from 4 pieces. Each one of them must be different for all four statues that solve this mystery. For each game and each place on the map combination will be different. If you have more questions let us know. We will answer as soon as possible.

I managed to brute force one by changing and going through every statue combination until the big one gave me some gems. I could not click on the large statue at all so I dont know what the clue was or why it finally worked.

Could you tell me which one it was (where)? Maybe there is a issue with a interaction in a specific place.

I've solved all the riddles now. Thanks for the new update, by the way. When I wanted to use one of the statues, I got a message that said that this statue does not belong here.

One of my puzzle pieces fell into the ocean at the lighthouse location and I havent been able to get it back, a reset button would be great

Yeah, taht sucks. Those things are kind of bouncy. Sorry that that happened. Did you restart the day or did you not notice it before saving?

I didnt notice it until after I saved and well... the statue lives in the ocean now

:-( And it happens to be one of the statues you need, I guess. That sucks. But as long as you are not a completionist, the statues all just give you some gems that you can also get from mining. So you did not miss an Astrofruit or anything unique.

Im pretty sure its the one I need to complete the puzzle :/ Ive thought about restarting the game completely just to get it back but I already have my broom and dont want to go back to walking everywhere haha

It will be fixed in next update. Statues will come back to their standard position during night. If you drop any of them in the ocean, they will come back.

Thank you!

Went to a puzzle location and there were quiet a few small statues. It got dark (I wish this bug could be fixed and the game revert to how it was before) I keyed back home and ran back to the puzzle location only to find many of the little statues were gone. There were only 5 left. There needs to be a reset button or something similar. This was at the puzzle near the lighthouse. After running there it seems that you only have a few minutes left before it gets too dark to do much of anything.

Waited a few days and all the little statues were back.
