Actually impossible puzzle, that fucking Hexagon robot shit at the end of Broken Age Act 2. I gave up and uninstalled the game when I was in a scinareo where I had no reference point for what to rewire the thing back to to make him beat the drum. There was no way of divining the solution short of having a photographic memory.

>whoops you used the wrong "O" looks like you have to start all over :^)

>>317956763
Impossible. You are lying. 3 bells with symbols on them. When you reach them your character pulls out a card with the exact same symbols on them, aligned in the correct order, with the number of times you must ring the bells clearly stated on the card. It's not a puzzle, it's not even a challenge, it's a sentience test. Chimps have been performing these tasks for centuries in experiments. Even pidgeons are capable of pattern recognition when trained. The Bioshock bells "puzzle" is the most laughable excuse for an intellectual challenge i've ever seen in vidya.

"First flew the greedy Pelican,
eager for the reward.
White wings flailing.

Then came a silent Dove,
flying beyond the Pelican,
as far as he could.

A Raven flies in,
flying higher than the Dove.
Just to show he can.

A Swan glides in to find a peaceful spot
next to another bird.

Finally, out comes a Crow,
coming quickly to a stop, yawning and then napping.

Who will show the way?
Who will be the key?
Who will lead to the silver reward?"

theres a puzzle in call of clthulu that involves cracking a safe using a particular combo

Problem is the only way to know her birthday is to get her coloring book and if you do not pick it up at a very specific moment youll never know the combo

There were other bullshit puzzles in this game. For example the color ball controller thingy. Not that difficult but goddamn was it tedious.

That one puzzle in phantom hourglass. Yea, you know which one. Just fuck it. I spent hours trying to figure it out till I gave up and closed my DS to take a break and came back to it solved.

>>317961294
This would have been less annoying but the game never explains to you that using different spells has different effects and you have to use the weakest fire and ice spells to solve it, anything else will never line it up right

I spent like half an hour using my firebolt spell or whatever until finally looking it up and discovering only the basic fireball will work for some fucking reason

You are weak. I got stuck in a puzzle in Grimrock 2 and spent two real time days trying to solve it. I literally turned the game off, sat down and meditated on the puzzle. I built paper replicas of the pieces and clue notes involved in the puzzle and moved them around, trying to figure it out. Finally i gave up and looked up a youtube video on the solution. I still think that puzzle was cryptic as fuck.

Yep it was that one. I could never figure it out, even after watching the tutorial i was like "Well that's cryptic as fuck". I think you had to know what direction some pilgrim lived in, which was alright, then you had to know that each >>paragraph>> was an input for the puzzle, and there was weird shit like ">>and he continued along the path>>". What path? The path to his home or the path he was travelling? I wasn't even sure about the way the puzzle was solved, i think i tried sleeping (resting with my party) at one point because the hints implied that the "traveller" was travelling at night, so i thought the game had to be night time. I guess i over-analyzed it a bit.

Why does this shit bother people so much? It's just a 5-digit code that works to let Columbia know (and only when the city is overhead) that someone wants to come aboard. It's not meant to keep people out because they welcome everyone that wants to leave the Sodom below. Like someone said, it's not a password, it's the doorbell.

If they wanted it to be something you have to remember, they wouldn't keep the card in view when you do it.

There was a puzzle in Hotel Dusk where you had to close your DS and open it again, which I just got because I gave up and turned it off and when I came back the puzzle was misteriously solved.
One week later I was playing Zelda Phantom Hourglass and the same close the DS puzzle stumped me again which made me feel like a double idiot.
