How does the fountain work?

Combine the flows

Seven-letter word
Common mistake
Trying to read the flowing parts one by one. Instead, combine the shapes and look for complete letters.

Fountain answer
This reveals the full seven-letter solution.
How does the fountain solution work?
The map from each letter position to the finished word stays hidden until you reveal the answer or solve it yourself.
Part 1 — Read the fountain
On the Fountain Symbol Wall, the flowing shapes are the clue. There are six symbol buttons for revealing and reading that wall. Watch how the flows combine into letter forms, then move right when you can read a seven-letter word.
Symbols → Letters → Word
Part 2 — Open the door
The Fountain Letter Door is a separate input. After you have the word, press it on the letter wall. Reading the fountain and opening the door are two steps in the walkthrough, but they are the same puzzle.
Fountain rooms
Read the symbols on one wall, then enter the word on the letter door to the right.

Seven letters
The final answer is seven letters long.
- 02
Read combined shapes
Don't treat each small line or flow as a separate symbol; look at the completed letter form.
- 03
Use the full word
Enter the complete word on the letter wall. The door checks a seven-letter sequence, not one letter at a time as the solution.
- 04
Correct progression
Make sure the statue sequence is complete before trying to finish the fountain section.
- 05
Not the tribute puzzle
The fountain opens the way to the final tribute section; they are separate puzzles.
