Trial Mechanics

Interact with the source of corruption at the conclusion of each Trial.

Fairy Tale Trials

• Vertical Wheel Switches - Use the Royal Net one-time swing (button press) to spin these switches. These are often used one time to open doors, and may require first finding the wheel head.

• Horizontal Wheel Switches - Use the Royal Net circle-swing (button hold) to spin these switches. These are sometimes used one time to open doors, or used multiple times to change the position of a rotating bridge during Mythic Trials.

• Floor Tiles - Use the Shovel to rotate the floor tile and change its displayed value. There is always a hint nearby of the correct value to switch the tiles to - the rotation of the clue matters, and the player can use an image of a gargoyle in the upper left corner of the grid to orient themselves across the puzzle area and the clues.

• Decoration Puzzles - Use Furniture menu from the Inventory to move furniture items within the challenge space to satisfy conditions. A separate guide will display the first time one of these puzzles is encountered

Mythic Trials

• Levers/Switches - A lever on a vertical mount, that has positions of up and down. Sometimes needs to be connected to power. Interact to toggle the position of the lever up or down. These are often used to raise or lower drawbridges.

• Large items on tracks - Examples include a platform of vases and a large stack of reddish marble. Player must Interact with the item from the correct direction (i.e. facing the direction to push towards on the track, behind the item) in order to push the item to its next platform location. Sometimes the tracks need to be activated (indicated by whether or not they are lit up) in order to enable the ability to push an item. The path must also be cleared in order to enable Interact.

• Placing items - Pick Up a sparkling object from the ground (often requires removing one or more obstacles). Interact with the target object, then Transfer the items from Inventory to the labeled keyhole. If necessary, the quantity of items will be automatically split.

• Swirling Vortex - An uncrossable area with a swirling animation, and white fishing ripples inside. Use the Fishing Pole to fish inside and pull up a platform.

• Water Wheel - A notched wheel that resembles those used for watermills in a rimmed ground area. Use the Royal Watering Can to turn the wheel - sometimes used to activate paths or move large items.
