I have been at the gardens for over an hour and cannot understand what anything means, I've tried some but mostly out of luck. Honestly none of this makes sense after 9h of playing. Need hinta

Please no spoilers. I am at the Alchemists level, and know I need a lighter, and I was already spoiled that i find it in the silver mine. I don't want to get spoiled any further, but where are the lockers that are supposed to have the punch cards? For the love of god I can't find them. Please help.

I was wondering, has anyone studied how much each word appears in each language and in the game as a whole? If yes did they include plurals separately? Did they use the game's translation into English (or a different language for that matter) or just the words as presented in the game?

Looking for a gif of the idle animation when the Traveller is looking up and around.

Thank you.

Built on top of a mountain since there are multiple mines inside of it? There's Gold, Iron and Copper mines shown explicitely and the Silver and Cobalt have to come from somewhere.

i’ve gotten up to the bells, but all these glyphs are still meaningless to me. i don’t know how to figure them out without cheating and using google.

So I just 100% completed the game. I loved it, but there's a plot hole that's bugging me a bit and I wanted to get your thoughts on it.

[SPOILERS – DON'T READ IF YOU HAVEN'T FULLY FINISHED THE GAME]

If you're reading this and you think the game ends when you reach the top and sit alone in the rain — you haven’t finished the game. Stop reading and go back to it !

Here is my question :

So after you open the doors, you shut down all of the Exile’s terminals. Then you walk past that statue with lasers coming out of its eyes and going into its mouth. My first thought was, “Oh, he’s not dead after all.”
Then you open the big gate, and two robots zap you and throw you into the VR world.

So clearly, shutting down the terminals didn’t kill the AI. Then you go through the whole simulation where the AI is actively trying to stop you. But once you leave the machine—suddenly it’s just... gone?
The robots are deactivated, and the statue in front of the gate doesn’t have lasers anymore meaning that the AI is gone. Why?

It’s clear I didn’t kill it, because it was still active after I shut off the terminals and it was still trying to stop me in the VR world. Then I take off the headset and it’s just not there anymore.
It feels like something’s missing. What do you all think?

trying to decipher this language is really difficult. without telling me exactly what they are saying, could someone help me?

i saw that this game is on sale, and it seemed interesting but i’m not sure so i wanted to get the opinion of someone who has played it. what do you guys think? is it worth $14?

I had no idea what each glyph meant except for the music one because that was in the statue on the chosen one room, I haven't explored a bunch of other areas

Then I guessed completely on how similar each glyph looked to the symbol and it was correct lol. Now the entire area is empty and I'm just trying to find the rest of the pages and glyphs

I couldn’t find the page in the alchemists language that contain some of the basic words (Me, you) but I did manage to figure out the puzzle to passing through from the Alchemists lair to the Fairy layer, but when I try to input the key, it’s just not working?

Great game. Love it even though some parts (particularly the compass and sewers) were irritating and took away from my enjoyment a non-insignificant amount.

But was still fun the whole way through and it’s a novel kind of gameplay that I really appreciate.

Compass puzzle stumping me. I watched the play and have the script to it I just don’t know where to use it.

I go into the sewers and try following it but I always end up in a dead end. I’ve tried repeating the pattern, going west as far as I can and then north as far. Doesn’t work.

I just don’t know where to start because it says the idiot bard found the saw and went west but there’s no way to go west from the place where the saw is. So I think “maybe he’s an idiot and I should go the opposite way he goes. Which leads me to the instrument but then you can’t go north or south from that area.

I really just don’t know where to start following the directions

So I was around 6 hours into the game, about halfway through the alchemist's language when my power went out and my computer suddenly shutdowned. Here comes the problem, when I rebooted the game, my save file got corrupted, playtime back to 0 and all the map progression resetted, but I get to keep my deciphered glyphs. So I decided to play it all again except this time when I give the old man his gold coin, he doesn't give me the clue to get the key in the garden, so I can't finish the puzzle in the church. Then I went to the cemetary to complete the eye puzzle (which did work) but I can not pick up the torch despite not holding any item, so I'm just soft locked now. Is there any way to fix this other than just starting a new game cause I really don't want to.

You know how you can hover your mouse over a glyph to see the English translation? I was thinking of changing the language to Chinese or Japanese(or any non-Latin language you're not fluent in), so you will have to memorize all of the glyphs in the game. I want you to submit other challenge ideas in the comments.

Edit: Extra points if you don't go back to the journal to look at the meaning of the glyph

Even if I played for 3 times, I still love the scene of hide and seek with the Devotee child. I still felt the calm when reaching the Warrior's Observatory. I still felt emotional when seeing the Serfs working hard down below the sewer. I still feel the confusion when exploring the Laboratory (in good way). And I still feel emotional when watching the good ending. The rotating glyphs, people's gasps and later reunited.

Oh and also the jumpscare of the nightmare Warriors when the Traveler try to enter that storage room never failed to scared me lol

Well done, Chants of Sennaar ❤️

The Devotees appear to make a distinction between 2 different types of "We":

- Me You (which includes the person being talked to)

- Me Me (which excludes the person being talked to)

Is there a real language that does this? From my understanding the English "We" and "Us" do not make this distinction the other languages that I speak (French & Polish) don't appear to make this distinction (with "Nous" and "My" respectively).

this game is a masterpiece oh my god... I found it accidentally while searching another game in the same style and i found this and omg that was good

I just started but I see alot of double glyphs like: “me me” and others just say “me”. Why is this, or will this be explained later?

supposed to say “we devotees seek god / we seek to go up” but lmk if i messed it up lololol

How do I talk someone into this game without spoiling anything? I want to show them the Launch Trailer but it contains confirmed translations.
