The Five Finger Mountain puzzle is a timed challenge that requires you to correctly align three totems by interacting with nearby contraptions. At first, it may feel confusing since the doors close quickly, but once you understand the pattern and clues, it becomes straightforward to solve.
How the Puzzle Works
In this puzzle, you will find three contraptions, each connected to a wall in front of it. When you push a contraption, the wall opens briefly, revealing a totem with a symbol behind it. Your goal is to rotate each totem by hitting with the arrow, so that it matches the correct symbol shown behind its corresponding wall.
You are on a time limit, so the wall will close shortly after opening. If that happens, simply interact with the contraption again to reopen it and continue adjusting.
When a totem is correctly aligned, you will notice the eyes on the symbol begin to glow, which confirms that it has been set properly.
Note: In some cases, the symbol may also glow in blue when the alignment is correct.
Correct Totem Alignment Solution
Each totem must match a specific symbol:
- Left Totem: Axe
- Middle Totem: Sword
- Right Totem: Shield
Rotate each totem until it matches the correct symbol behind the wall. Once all three totems are correctly aligned, the mechanism will activate automatically, and the path forward will open.
