Whatcha all playing?
I've been diving deep into Blue Prince.
Really awesome roguelite puzzle game. Highly recommend checking it out!!!
You're viewing part of a thread.
I just got

down to the basement
and I'm shocked at how much there is. I thought I was going to get somewhere this run.

I look like I'm stuck, I assume the gear puzzle can't be solved first time? I can't figure out how to move the mine cart. And maybe drain the reservoir? Is this supposed to happen? It looks like there is another entrance from the Tomb (though I've never even seen a tomb when drafting!). Am I on to something? Am I not supposed to be able to get further this run?
small hint
Yeah I've also never seen a tomb while drafting, but there is one other entrance that the map shows. Have you found the pump room?

The Fountain right? I assume it's on the east side lawn, but I haven't found any way to open a door to the outside on the east side. I've been through the Garage on the west side.
I have found the pump room and drained as much of the reservoir as I could, but there is still a touch of water at the bottom preventing me from going down there and both tanks are full, as are all rooms. No idea how to empty the last bit. I thought it was opening the tap in the kitchen to drain the water, but that doesn't seem to affect the water level...
another small fountain hint
The fountain isn't where you think. And is much more accessible. Calling it a fountain is a bit much to be frank. If you were to drain it I think you would see what it's referring to

Drained the fountain, now I need the basement key again. Still don't know how to get the chests at the bottom of the reservoir as I don't know how to drain the final bit. Maybe pump room needs to be next to boiler room to get the last tank in play? I'm starting to see I'm going to need to get through insane amounts of RNG to finish. I already basically concluded I probably need the boiler room adjacent to the lab to get the lever machine working.
I also am tearing my hair out about the

drawing room safe code. The other safes had the clue in the same room but for the life of me I can't figure out the paintings with the steps.
spoiler
Oh damn I haven't unlocked any of the safes yet. I need to work on that. Also for the boiler it doesn't have to be immediately next to what you're trying to power. They just need to be connected by rooms that also have vents going through them. The passageway and the security room for instance are 2 I know that have them. Look out for rooms that have vents going through the top to each door

Wait didn't you roll credits? That's very interesting that you did that without opening any safe...
Anyway thank you so much for your responses, they've been perfect hints without being too spoily, which is a hard thing to pull off! I might bug you again at some point, we'll see what I accomplish today.
Actually, maybe we need a Blue Prince community...
Yeah it's surprising how little you actually need to roll credits. Also no problem! Happy to help :)
Just rolled credits. Really strange actually haha. There are so many unsolved mysteries! I feel like I'm close to piecing together the narrative but I'm still missing crucial pieces.
Congrats! Yeah there's sooooo much left to discover. Definitely try and make it back to room 46 again. There's a lot in there to point you in new directions :)
Good lord there is so much still to do haha! Every time I think I've seen most of the puzzles a new secret bottom opens up to an entirely new layer. I'm loving putting together the narrative but my god some of the puzzles didn't work for me (I had to look up a couple of hints - would never have organically gotten them). How have you been progressing with the safes?
