How to Solve all Water Puzzles in The Applecore
This guide shows how to solve all the Water Puzzles in The Applecore area of God of War Ragnarok. You have to solve these puzzles during the Search the Mines for Tyr objective in The Quest for Tyr quest.
Water Puzzle 1
The location of this puzzle is shown in the picture below. To solve the puzzle, you have to redirect water to the water wheel and make it rotate.
First, destroy the stones on the wooden trough blocking the water flow. As you destroy the stones, water will start flowing. Then freeze the wooden trough as shown in the second picture below. This will make the water overflow and fall on the wheel, making it rotate. This will make a hook come out as shown in the second picture below. Use the hook to jump to the other side and continue ahead.
Water Puzzle 2
The location of this puzzle is shown in the picture below.
As you arrive in the area, go right and climb up the walls to reach the top platform and go to its edge as shown in the pictures below. Once you are there, pull the lever there to redirect the water toward a water wheel as shown in the second picture below.
Now go back to the starting platform and freeze the wooden trough as shown in the picture below. This will make the water overflow and fall on a wheel, making it rotate. This will make a hook come out as shown in the second picture below. Use the hook to jump over to the opposite side as shown below.
Once you have jumped over, call back your axe. Then freeze the wooden trough on the left side as shown in the picture below. This will make the water overflow and fall on the wheel, making it rotate. This will make the lift come down. Enter the lift and summon back the axe to get the lift moving.
Water Puzzle 3
Shortly after the previous puzzle, you will reach the final puzzle of the area. First, turn left and send Atreus up the platform as shown in the picture below.
Now go back to the starting platform and freeze the wooden trough, making the water overflow and the wheel rotate, as shown in the picture below. Then look over to Atreus and press the “Square” button. This will make Atreus rotate the wheel and send some rocks. Now you can call back your axe, but since rocks are there, the wheel will still keep rotating.
Now freeze the wooden trough on the right side as shown in the picture below. This will make the water overflow and fall on a wheel, making it rotate. This will make a hook come up. Use the hook to jump over to the opposite side. Then turn around and direct Atreus to shoot the stones blocking the water. This will make the platform move and you can then start moving ahead.
