The Eye of the Universe: Spoiler-Free Guide
Introduction: 22 Minutes
The sun explodes. You wake up. The marshalls. Outer Wilds is a game about knowledge. You don't level up. You just learn how to fly past the Anglerfish.
The Three Exploration Puzzles
1. The Quantum Rules
"The image of a Quantum Object is a Quantum Object." If you look at a rock, it stays. Look away, it moves. Understand this rule to land on the Quantum Moon.
2. Giant's Deep Core
Currents push you up. Tornadoes throw you into space. How do you get under the current? (Hint: Not all tornadoes spin the same way).
3. Dark Bramble
It is bigger on the inside. It is full of fog. And things that eat ships. Your thrusters make noise. Noise attracts them.
