Match the starting layout

This is the first Heroes room in Cappa Games’ recording, after the overworld introduction. Its matching community identifier is heroes1_1; that identifier is not displayed in the native footage.

The diagram numbers columns from left to right and rows from top to bottom. These are editorial references for this guide. P marks the single hero and T the exit. Directions describe the board in the recording, not a fixed keyboard or controller binding.

Full solution and gameplay

Reveal solution / story details

The released game’s route is twelve presses: down, right ×3, up ×2, right ×5, down. Both crystals end up pushed to the right, as the written retail guide says. This is not a claim of the fewest moves.

Cappa Games’ June 2026 demo recording shows the same room and the same order. The clip under the last step is the same room in the released game: Retail puzzle 1 in Game Guides Channel’s October 2026 retail recording (see Sources). Its on-screen input strip gives the press counts used above.

  1. From the start, step down one tile to the bottom row, left of the blue crystal.
  2. Press right three times. The blue crystal is pushed along the bottom row through the lower-left opening and stops directly before the right divider.
  3. Step up two tiles to the top row.
  4. Press right five times. You walk up to the purple crystal at the top opening and push it to the far-right boundary, finishing directly above the yellow exit.
  5. Step down one tile onto the yellow exit.
