Full solution and gameplay

Reveal solution / story details

Do not move the mirror. If the second landing is still on your starting island, you have not walked far enough left on the northwest island.

The time in the last step is from Joric’s June 17, 2026 demo recording (see Sources). The clip under the last step is the same room in the released game: Retail puzzle 1 in Game Guides Channel’s October 12, 2026 recording, which follows this route to the exit.

  1. Walk right across the starting island until your reflection stands on the northwest island. Activate the mirror action to move there.
  2. Walk left to the west edge of that island. Check that the reflected figure now stands on the large southern island, then activate the action again.
  3. Walk left across the southern island and up onto the yellow exit. The recording completes the room at 0:15.
