Overview

To reach this puzzle, after finishing Puzzle 4, walk around the puzzle to its back and follow the road.

As you enter the puzzle, you find a driller and a connector in the main area. Near the center of the puzzle, there are two rooms on either side, with a set of purple barriers creating a passageway between them. In the left room is a red emitter. In the right room is a red receiver and another connector, and the receiver deactivates a blue door on the other side. There are copper walls for both the rooms. Beyond the purple barriers is a twisty passageway that leads to a red reciever that gives access to the progress wheel.
