Solving Riddle of Pristine Peaks

The Riddle of Pristine Peaks is the main puzzle of the second planet in the game and it is very well hidden additionally. It is actually located on an isolated hill that can only be reached by using a cannon. However, that cannon is locked behind a secret path that most players will probably miss in their first playthrough.

The secret path that will take you to the cannon is marked in the image above. You might miss it the first time because the path is actually a pipe that blends in with the snowy environment of Pristine Peaks. However, once you carefully look for it, you will see it.

This is what the pipe looks like in the game. Once you use the pipe, the path will you towards the top of the mountain that you’re standing on. Follow the linear path at the top of the mountain and you should arrive at the cannon that takes you to Riddle of Pristine Peaks.

In your path toward the cannon, you will face a tough enemy. It is recommended that you just run past that enemy and go down using the ladder. The enemy will not be able to follow you if you’re fast enough. Next, just use the cannon and arrive at the location of the Riddle. 

Rotating The Statues

Once you arrive at the location of the riddle, simply interact with the archaeologist, and that should begin the riddle itself. The archaeologist gives you some hints regarding the riddle, and these are extremely helpful in solving this puzzle in the game. He gives a hint about each of the three statues present here, and you have to rotate them to match the hints that the archaeologist gave.

Statue #1

The hint that the archaeologist gives about the first statue is actually corresponding to the sun itself. You have to rotate the statue enough times that the icon on its head matches the sun. In order to do so, just rotate the statue in a clockwise direction 3 times.

Once you get the sun icon on the first statue, that should complete 1/3rd of the Riddle of Pristine Peaks. Now we will discuss the riddle and the solution for the second statute here.

Statue #2 

According to the hint about the second statue, it actually mentions that the rabbits created a stone mask in order to combat the hot and sunny weather of their planet. We realize very quickly from the hint that the archaeologist is actually talking about an icon of a mask. We have to rotate the second statue enough times so that the stone mask icon appears on top of it.

Once you get the stone mask icon on the second, you will be very close to solving the riddle. Just rotate the statue 2 times in a clockwise direction in order to get the stone mask icon on top of it.

Statue #3

The third hint refers to the extremely cold weather that the planet is currently facing due to Cursa’s dark reprisal. So you have to get an icon on top of the third statue that matches something related to cold. And it is actually an icon of a mountain.

Getting the icon of a mountain is actually very easy. Just rotate the third statue in the clockwise direction twice and you should get the mountain icon. Finally, you have gotten all the right icons that are needed to solve this riddle. It is time to get the rewards for all your hard work.
