Hint 1 — a direction to explore

Reveal solution / story details

Each trader can wait while the other moves the mirror. Look for a safe place offshore where one trader could stand.

Hint 2 — the useful arrangement

Reveal solution / story details

Send the crystal into the water first, then send a trader onto it. The trader left on land can reposition the mirror for the distant exit.

Observed solution and gameplay

Reveal solution / story details

Directions refer to the recorded view. Reflect means your configured reflection action; no native keyboard binding is assumed. Switch trader means select the other trader using your configured controls. A and B identify their starting positions; they are not character classes. This is an observed landmark route, not a native-game playtest. Counted mirror pushes are corroborated by the matching community layout; ordinary walking counts are not exhaustively transcribed.

The southern landing lies beyond the recording’s camera edge. Its position is corroborated by the matching community layout, the reflection line and the trader’s later arrival at the western exit; the footage does not show a close view of the offshore support.

Times in brackets are 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 23 in Game Guides Channel’s October 12, 2026 recording, which follows this route to the exit.

  1. Switch to the lower trader. Push the pink crystal west along its row to the leftmost land tile, stopping before water. The trader stands immediately east of it (10:27).
  2. Switch to the upper trader. Walk to the mirror’s west side and push it east four tiles to the far-right land column. Get north of it and push it south two tiles, aligning it with the crystal’s row (10:33).
  3. Switch to the trader beside the crystal. Move one tile east and one tile north to clear the reflection line. Reflect the crystal into open water south of the mirror, where it sinks (10:35).
  4. Move that trader south to the old crystal row, then west to the original staging tile at the land’s left edge. Reflect onto the sunk offshore crystal (10:38).
  5. Switch to the mainland trader. Walk around to the mirror’s south side and push it north three tiles, stopping one row above the mainland exit. Its preview points directly at the isolated western exit (10:44).
  6. Walk onto the mainland exit and Reflect the offshore trader onto the western exit. Both circles are occupied at 10:46, before the next room begins.
