Assuming you don't intend to exit the level here, go back to statue plaza and look for an air conditioning unit with some blocks beneath it and an open window above it. There's an achievement for solving it here and now, but if you plan to explore the rest of the District, you'll find other chances at a solution, so budget your time accordingly. The riddle format should be familiar to anyone who's taken the SAT (and good practice for anyone who's about to). Go back outside, and veer right past the statue for a look at the Jindosh Lock, and its accompanying riddle. Open a locker here to find the first rune of the Dust District ( Rune 1/5).

This means there can be no trickery at work: Arkane had to build a Clockwork Mansion that actually works, that makes sense from inside and out, that allows the player to jump between the luxurious artifice of the Mansion's rooms and its mechanical skeleton, shifting between them and reshaping the puzzle box as they navigate a path to their target, the designer of the Mansion, Kirin Jindosh. This being a Dishonored game, you are not obliged to play by the Mansion's rules and can squeeze your way into the guts of the mansion to see the cogs and pulleys that make it all work. Effectively a gigantic puzzle box, the level reassembles itself around you as you pull on levers that see walls slide in and out of place into new configurations. However, these powers are also built with creativity in mind, allowing you to combine them with each other, and other systems, in all kinds of creative and stylish ways.Īnd then there is, arguably, its most memorable location. Some are clearly anticipated by the game's developers: possessing a rat to crawl through a vent to get around a flesh-frying Wall of Light, or blinking up to a window to avoid a violent encounter with patrolling guards. These fun and inventive abilities allow you to draw further lines in that web of possibility. Exploration and experimentation are encouraged, allowing you to switch approaches when the need or desire takes you, or loop back to prod at other potentials when you overhear a guard let loose a tantalising piece of info, stumble upon the code to a safe, or spot an intriguing looking route that leads up to that balcony across the way.ĭovetailing beautifully with the design of these spaces are the supernatural powers you can unlock to enhance your character's abilities: the unendingly satisfying Blink or Far Reach to teleport yourself around Possession to take control of rats, fish and guards Shadow Walk to transform yourself into a stealthy spectral shadow. Routes and options interweave, as flexible as they are compelling. Your choices need never be binary: stealth or violence high or low left or right. To play in Dishonored 2's intricately-crafted spaces is to find yourself navigating complex webs of possibility.
