Solving the Pyramid Puzzle in Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

The Isle of Ruins pyramid puzzle requires rotating four colored symbols into the correct order on the central pedestal.

Mechanics

• Four rooms (North, East, South, West), each with a symbol (Blue, Red, Green, Yellow).
• Each room has two switches; each switch rotates the symbols in that room and its clockwise neighbor.
• Rotation is clockwise: Blue → Red → Green → Yellow → Blue.

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Note the starting symbol in each room.
2. Target order (pedestal): Blue, Red, Green, Yellow (or as shown on your map).
3. Start in any room. Use its switches to rotate until that room shows the first needed symbol.
4. Move to the next room (clockwise). Its symbol may have changed due to previous switch. Rotate until it shows the second symbol.
5. Repeat for third and fourth rooms.
6. Once all four match, the pedestal activates.

Tips

• Draw a 4-circle diagram; track rotations on paper.
• If stuck, exit pyramid → re-enter to reset.
