How to Solve the Noveria Puzzles in Mass Effect Legendary Edition
We will share with you what exactly you need to look out for and what to do as you solve the puzzle, taken directly from the official wiki of the game:
- Only one box can be transferred in any stack, regardless of whether they are adjacent or not.
- Only the topmost box will be "taken" by pressing the corresponding face button. It will be "placed" in the same order when the other front button is pressed. This means that if the topmost box is selected, it will fall into the topmost area of whatever stack it falls into. The same applies to other boxes.
- The box cannot be carried to a place where there will be a blue box in any slot above it.
- Once the carton has been moved to another stack, it can be moved back as many times as necessary.
- You can only "pick up" one box at a time.
