It should go without saying, but SPOILERS AHEAD. Many of these puzzles connect with each other, so you'll always want to be aware of what connections your solutions are making.Īlso.

The most important part of this game is solving the puzzles. Otherwise you risk spoiling the entire experience.Īlso, since there isn't any real way to check your progression, and there isn't a "set way" to do things, our guide may feature sections in a different order than you played them in. Also, since the main point of this game is to solve the puzzles, we suggest trying to complete them on your own before looking at this guide. Since the game does feature a pretty complex amount of puzzles, we will be including several images for the solutions to help guide you along the way. Now head outside to the back and use the simple panel on the side to activate the Monastery laser.This guide will feature the solutions for each and every puzzle in The Witness. You have to look down at the floor to find the remainder of the branch and try to fit that shape at the end of one of the three possible paths provided by the existing branches. Just like the last puzzle, you have to use the thin branches to chart a path, but this time, the branch is broken. The fourth and final puzzle in the Monastery is tricky. For this one, you need to overlay very thin twigs from the adjacent tree branch to chart your actual path instead of the walls. It's difficult to see the perspective trick that happens with the third puzzle, so here is the solution on its own. Stand on the other side and this time use the twiggy branches next to the leafy ones used in the first puzzle to create a path through the grid. The second one is a bit more complicated, but still straightforward. You just need to align the branches and leaves so they form a path. Solving these three opens the gate to the zen garden and activates the panels surrounding the tree inside the temple. There's a back gate to the Zen Garden that doesn't have any diagrams to look through, instead you'll have to look at the jutting rocks just before the door that form a narrow path you can trace to open the door. For the third and final puzzle in the sequence, a bunch of rubble is blocking you from seeing the correct path, so you'll have to go outside and look at the wooden pane from the other side, then translate that to the puzzle. On the middle puzzle, broken pieces of the carved wooden pane inside the temple should provide hints about where walls are that you can't see. In order to complete these, you need to stand inside and overlay the gaps on the wooden tree cutout onto the diamond-shaped puzzles outside, outlining a path for yourself.įor the first in this sequence, starting on the left, the path is relatively clear. This gives you the necessary view of the patterned wood panels outside, which you need to complete to activate the panels inside the temple. (See Monastery Obelisk for more puzzles related to the bonsai tree.)
Eventually, the metal panels against the right-side wall (on the side of the zen garden) will rise up and fold away. Once inside, you'll see four blacked out panels surrounding a large tree in the middle of the room, and at the back, a small bonsai version of that tree on a pedestal.įace the tree from the left side and draw a line from one corner to the other, as seen above. To open the monastery doors, look through the holes in the patterned wood panel walls and swipe the lines. Spoiler warning! The screenshots below contain solutions for every puzzle in the area.
