the abandoned planet 11 act 4

From the entrance to the monument area pick the right to arrive at the other side of the hallway. Approach the controls between the torches.

the abandoned planet 12 act 4

Place all the switches in the middle. Pay attention and remember how one switch moves the others and then combine the sequence of movements.

the abandoned planet 13 act 4

Approach the similar controls on the other side of the corridor.

the abandoned planet 14 act 4

The puzzle is the same.

the abandoned planet 15 act 4

Solving the switches will unlock 2 new puzzles at the monument. Return there and approach the door below the monument.

the abandoned planet 16 act 4

Approach the controls on the left.

the abandoned planet 17 act 4

You can find a clue on how to solve puzzles for both controls in your journal.

the abandoned planet 18 act 4

On the right side, there are buttons. When you click a button, the corresponding position on the left side of the panel will activate. For example, if you press the upper left button, the upper left circle on the left panel will be raised and grow red. Press the buttons so you get the 2 red circles and 2 green lines like in the picture above.

Once you do that, put one of the perforated metal on the left side of the panel. The holes of the metal piece should match the activated fields on the panel.

the abandoned planet 19 act 4

the abandoned planet 21 act 4

You can control which floor you want to go to by moving the lower switch (click on the desired line and the switch will move to it). You can start the elevator by activating the switch above. Go to the lowest floor.

the abandoned planet 22 act 4

On the lowest floor, there are 4 unlocking mechanisms on the left and the right side, and 2 controls in the middle (2 circular lids). You need to unlock both circular lids but you can only unlock what is on the lower level, not the one above. You will unlock the above controls later.
