=== Dream solution ===
[[File:Abyss Audio Log 13.jpg|thumb|The green hologram of [[Alexandra Drennan]] enclosed after the end of the puzzle.]]
After reaching the [[Progress Wheel]], the player is presented with an additional challenge: an extra room contains a green hologram of [[Alexandra Drennan]]. Opening it requires placing two tools on a pair of [[Pressure plate]]s. Retrieving the hologram plays the [[Abyss_audio_logs#Dream_2|Dream 2 audio log]].

The following solution was found on Intangir Voluntaryist's YouTube <ref>https://youtu.be/fUxJJj-y2YE?si=7jBXjTk0zxxWVhPF</ref>
{{Spoiler|2=solution|
* From the final room with the three RGB converters, hook up the first one to the two emitters, and place it in the center of the room. Take a second one and connect it to the first one, plus the blue emitter, turning it red. Take the third one, connect it to the first two, and aim its blue light at the blue receiver back in the previous hallway to gain access back to the previous room containing the inverter.
* Take the inverter out into the hallway, and from the hallway-side of the blue door, connect it between the red emitter and the blue receiver in order to hold the door open and free the third RGB converter. You can now move all three RGB converters into the room that previously contained the inverter. Since we are now working backwards from the end, we'll now call this "room two".
* From "room two", take one of your RGB converters and connect it to the red emitter and the blue inverter out in the hallway. Point its green light at both the green receiver immediately available in "room two", as well as at the green receiver beyond the blue door, over in the next room over - "room three". Setting the RGB converter down will open first one, then the other, granting you access back to "room four", which contains the connector still pointed at the other side of the double-door which separates rooms three and four.
* Take the second RGB converter with you all the way into room four. Connect it back to the first one, shining green in room two, and the blue emitter you can see to the right of it, in room three. Point its red light at the red receiver to hold open the double-door instead of relying on the connector.
* Bring the connector out into room three and connect it to the same two points - directing room three's blue emitter back towards room two's green RGB converter. Now that this converter has a new source of blue, it can hold the door open from inside without the inverter needing to connect across the span of the hallway to the blue receiver. Adjust the inverter to disconnect it from that receiver, but leave it connected to the red emitter inside room two, and set it down just outside the door again, in the hallway.
* Grab the third RGB converter and place it behind the inverter, connected to it as a blue source, plus the red emitter, and aim it at the green receiver juuuust visible inside the door to the left. Make sure it is able to hold the door open from the outside, with both tools on the hallway-side of the door. You may now retrieve the blue connector from room three, which will close some doors.
* Bring the connector out into the hallway with the inverter and the RGB converter that are holding the door open. Also collect the spare RGB converter from room two, as it is no longer needed there. You should now have one inverter, one connector, and two RGB converters all on the same side of the door, which you can now safely close.
* Use the inverter and the connector to re-open the final door to the progress wheel, and carry your two unused RGB converters over to the pressure plates to retrieve the Dream.

Tower

2025-06-12T17:55:33Z

Tearphones: /* Floor 5 */ puzzle hints and photo

The '''Tower''', also called the '''Great Tower''' and other similar names, is the central structure in the [[Simulation]]. Throughout [[The Talos Principle]], the player ([[Athena]]) is warned by [[Elohim]] that ascending the Tower will lead to the player's death. In reality, ascension will lead to Elohim's death and to Athena's consciousness being transferred to the physical world.

The elevator in the Tower can take the player to floor 1 as soon as the Tower itself is accessible (that is, after leaving the [[Land of Ruins]]), but all other floors requires first using a terminal within the Tower. For floors 2 through 5, this requires using the terminal on the previous floor, which is accessible only after completing a puzzle. Floor 6 can be enabled from any Tower terminal but only after learning the required three-digit code (randomized for each playthrough of the game) from [[Simulation#Layout|star worlds]].

=== Star ===

A star is visible in a small building behind the Tower. It is locked behind a [[blue door]] that can only be opened by connecting a laser to a [[receiver]].

{{ProgressiveHint|If you can't find the blue emitter|It is initially only partially visible from the area around the Tower. Something is blocking it.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you want to know exactly how to access the emitter|You need to break the wooden fence at the back side of the Tower, using the axe from inside Building C.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you don't know where to get connectors|You can take two connectors from the puzzle on floor 2 and dropped them off the edge of the Tower (or take them down in the elevator).}}

== Floor 1 ==

=== Puzzle ===
[[File:Tower Level 1 Puzzle.jpg|thumb|Tower Level 1 Puzzle]]

{{ProgressiveHint|Hint for method 1|Walk around the ''outside'' of the puzzle carefully. See any interesting ways to go?}}

{{ProgressiveHint|Hint for method 2|You have two connectors. Can you make it so not both are interrupted?}}

== Floor 2 ==

=== Puzzle ===
[[File:Tower Level 2 Puzzle.jpg|thumb|Tower Level 2 Puzzle]]

This puzzle contains three fans and three hexahedrons.

{{ProgressiveHint|Objective of the puzzle|You have to reach the rooftop of the structure directly in front.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're having trouble getting started|The first objective is to obtain the third hexahedron.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're trying to jump and can't get any elevation|The final solution does not require any jumping at all.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're trying to drop a hexahedron below your feet|That doesn't work, but dropping things is a good way to explore things.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|A set of explicit steps for the solution|Use the two hexahedrons to obtain the third. Grab one hexahedron, fly on the floor fan, and place it in the little alcove. Place two hexahedrons on the floor, in a row, in front of the horizontal fan. Climb on the second hexahedron with the fan blade, and reach across and attach it. The hexahedron you are standing on is the first to reach the floor fan and rises, then the second one reaches up below you, giving you more elevation. Reach into the alcove to pick up the final box and drop it into the horizontal stream of air to gain the final bit of elevation needed to reach the ceiling.}}

=== Star ===
A star is visible on this floor behind a wall.

{{ProgressiveHint|A small hint|You cannot access the star from floor 3.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|To know where to begin|You need to go to [[#Floor 5|floor 5]].}}

{{ProgressiveHint|The solution|From floor 5, instead of entering the puzzle, walk through the large opening onto a ledge along the wall of the Tower. Drop down to another ledge, then walk out onto a plank that extends perpendicular to the building. From the end of that plank you can drop down to part of floor 3 that has the star.}}

== Floor 4 ==

=== Puzzle ===
[[File:Tower Level 4 Puzzle.jpg|thumb|Tower Level 4 Puzzle]]

This puzzle contains a hexahedron, a ladder, a platform, a recorder and a key.

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're struggling to gain enough elevation to even use the platform|Did you notice the ladder?}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you still can't seem to reach the platform|You can try climbing on the metal structure behind the recorder}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you appear to be still short some elevation at the end|Both copies of yourself should avail yourselves of every bit of help you can, including all of your equipment and all athletic abilities.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you reached the terminal but can't find the elevator code|Read the documents in the terminal.}}

This puzzle contains a hexahedron, a jammer, a ladder, a guard, a turret, several fans and pressure plates, and a recorder.

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're struggling to get started|Detach a fan blade so you can run away.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you want to know your immediate objective|Obtain the hexahedron and jammer.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|Your second objective|Move the hexahedron and jammer upstairs.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|Your third objective|Blow up the turret.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you are wondering how to get started in accomplishing the second objective|You will need careful coordination between the recorded self and the real self.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If some of your equipment is stuck downstairs on the other side of the fence|Reset the puzzle. The only thing that needs to go into the back-of-the-room with the pressure plate is the recorded self. No equipment should be brought there.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|Tips for fan placement|You will need one real and one recorded fan downstairs, and two recorded and two real fans upstairs to make a path for the guard to blow up the turret. This means every fan blade: real and recorded has a purpose. You also have to jam them strategically so that the recorded version of yourself can move around freely enough.}}

Messenger World C

2025-06-07T12:37:40Z

Tearphones: Info about the star

[[File:Messenger World C.jpg.jpg|thumb]]
'''Messenger World C''', or '''Messenger Island C''', is the part of the [[Land of Faith]] that is accessible using a portal from Building C:
* by using the nearby [[axe]] to break the wooden barricade in [[The Talos Principle]]
* by redeeming [[Messenger Token]]s to solve the sigil puzzle in [[The Talos Principle: Reawakened]]

== Puzzles ==

There are five [[Sigil|sigil puzzles]], four of which unlock puzzle elements and the fifth of which releases a [[messenger]].

{{TODO}}

== Stars ==
There is a star hidden in this level in [[The Talos Principle|the original game]]. However, in [[The Talos Principle: Reawakened|the remaster]], this world geometry (and the corresponding star) is in [[Messenger World A]]. Refer to that page for hints.

== Trivia ==
There is an easter egg and a developer commentary icon in the Reawakened version of the game, referencing The Infinite Monkey Cage podcast.

'''Messenger World A''', or '''Messenger Island A''', is the part of the [[Land of Ruins]] that is accessible:

* in [[The Talos Principle]], by using the [[axe]] (from the [[Land of Faith]]) to break the wooden barricade in front of the portal to this world.
* in [[The Talos Principle: Reawakened|TTP: Reawakened]], by collecting [[Messenger Token]]s and unlocking the door in Building A.

== Puzzles ==

There are five [[Sigil|sigil puzzles]], four of which unlock puzzle elements and the fifth of which releases a [[messenger]].

== Stars ==
There is a star hidden in this level in [[The Talos Principle: Reawakened|TTP: Reawakened]]. However, in the original game, this world geometry (and the corresponding star) was in [[Messenger World C]].

{{ProgressiveHint|Where to find a clue about the star|Find a statue by walking next to a waterfall. Read the QR code in there.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you keep falling off|Think logically. If the world was complete but later broke off, would there be some obvious way to go? Maybe the world is only visually incomplete.}}

== Puzzle elements ==
{{Puzzle Element List|Blue door=true|Connector=true|Hexahedron=true|Ladder=true|Platform=true|Receiver=true|Recorder=true}}

== Overview ==

== Hints ==

{{ProgressiveHint|Quick note on the mechanics of a recorder|Refresh your knowledge of how [[Recorder]]s work. When you start recording, you can pick up equipment and get a ghost copy of that equipment, that you can move around, connect to things. Similarly, if a recording is active, the real version of yourself can pick up the equipment, and the ghost version of that thing will remain connected, in its original place.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|To get started|Figure out how to get past the first blue door.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|The second objective|Figure out how to obtain the hexahedron}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're unable to find the right angles through the corridors|The corridors are too snaky to connect. Try to find another vantage point.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're stuck in the back room|There is a ladder. It is worth climbing even if you're not stuck there, because unlike most ladders, it doesn't drop you across the wall.}}

{{ProgressiveHint|If you're wondering what to do with the platform|I don't know either. I didn't use it.}}

== Solution ==

{{ProgressiveHint|A full sequence of steps|'''Objective 1''': As a recorded entity connect the blue emitter so that there is a source of light off to the side. Real: connect the blue emitter through the blue door to the two receivers and the ghost connector. Let the ghost expire once the light is self-sustaining. '''Objective 2:''' Record yourself for just a moment and do nothing. While the recording is active but paused, grab the connector and head inside. Connect the blue emitter inside using the ghost connector as a light source to open the blue door to the innermost room. Grab the hexahedron from inside. '''Objective 3:''' Take the hexahedron close to where the ladder is, near the back. Grab the real connector, place it on the box so that it is reachable from upstairs. Climb the ladder. Using the ghost connector as a light source, connect the final emitter.}}

== Solution ==

{{ProgressiveHint|A full sequence|Detach the fan blades and use it to push the pressure plate and get access to the inner area. Grab the connector that is immediately available, and use it to get a second hexahedron. Use the hex to open the door to the blue emitter. Holding the second connector, fly into the inner room.

Use this new light source to keep the center door open, so that you can disconnect and grab the innermost connector. Using this connector, you can open another door that gives you the fourth and final connector. At the end of this sequence of events, you need to have two hexahedrons, two fan blades, and two connectors outside. You can leave the rest of the equipment inside. Using this, make one of the connectors fly up high, and use the other to connect the two receivers close to the sigil. Use the remaining hexahedron on the final pressure plate}}
