Nightingale: How to solve Puzzle Cores

To solve a Puzzle Core in Nightingale, players must interact with the Puzzle Pieces in the correct order. The order in which you need to interact with them is displayed by the Puzzle Pieces themselves, as if you wait, they will light up and produce a sound in the correct sequence.

The Puzzle Pieces are the triangular structures near the core that produce musical tones and either red or blue light. You need to walk up and interact to activate each of these Puzzle Pieces in the correct order to complete the Puzzle Core and earn the reward in Nightingale.

You’ll need to be careful when selecting the order of the Puzzle Pieces, as if you get it wrong, enemies will spawn and give you a tough time.

Here’s a step-by-step guide for solving Puzzle Cores in Nightingale:

1. Find a Puzzle Core in the world of Nightingale.
2. Wait and watch the sequence in which the Puzzle Pieces light up and make a noise.
3. Copy this sequence by interacting with the Puzzle Pieces in the correct order.
4. After this, the Puzzle Core disappears, leaving a Hope Echo in its place which you can pick up.
5. The once gated-off room behind the Puzzle Core will now also be open, which will include a Favour as a reward.

Hope Echos are crafting recipes and Favour’s are buffs in Nightingale that provide different special abilities such as increased jump height. These buffs are temporary, so use them wisely!
