The Talos Principle 2 - 5 Beginner Tips

1. Solve Puzzles One by One and Save Your Special Hints:

The game lets you choose which puzzle to do, but it's smarter to do them in the order they come. This way, you learn little by little and each puzzle prepares you for the next one. If you jump from the first to the eighth puzzle, it might be too hard because you missed some tricks you were supposed to learn. There are special hints in the game called Prometheus Sparks – they're like little helps you can use when puzzles get really tough. It's best to save them for the end of the game when you're really stuck.

2. Don't Just Rush; Look Around:

Each puzzle is in a big area, and there's a lot to find if you wander around. Besides the main puzzles, you can find secret puzzles (Lost Puzzles) and other cool stuff. So it's worth it to slow down and explore every corner. Sometimes the hardest puzzles to find can be the most fun to solve.

3. If You're Stuck, Take a Break:

When a puzzle is really making you scratch your head, it might be tempting to keep trying random things or to just look up the answer. But it's often better to step away for a bit. Many times, when you come back after a break, you might suddenly see the solution that was hiding from you before.

4. Look from Above:

It's harder to see everything in a 3D puzzle than in a 2D one. If you find a spot where you can look down on the puzzle, it might help. Take a moment there to stop and think about the whole puzzle. Sometimes, the answer comes to you when you're just looking and not moving things around.

5. Think Backwards:

Imagine what the solved puzzle will look like. Stand where the end of the puzzle is and think about what steps you need to take to get there. This can help you figure out where to start and what to do next. It's like making a map in your head of how to finish the puzzle.

These tips should help you get into The Talos Principle 2 and enjoy the puzzles without getting too frustrated.
