Follow our detailed walkthrough for the Tower Trial (ᛟᛞᛁᚾ ᛏᚱᛁᚨᛚᛋ) - ᛒᛖᛏᚱᚨᛃ in Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, including lorestone and rune locations.
Walkthrough
- 1From the Barnstokkr tree, jump left off the ledge to find the Shard that leads to the Tower Trial.
- 2You'll arrive on a pier at night. Follow Dillion's blue light towards land.
- 3Before a broken section of the pier, interact with a drawbridge on the right to lower it.
- 4Take the stone stairs to a raised platform in the water. Walk into the large mask and focus to travel to the light world (daytime, less damaged environment).
- 5Return across the drawbridge; the pier is now intact. Use the wooden stairs to reach the base of the tower.
- 6A locked door is ahead. To its right is Lorestone ᛒ (1/6).
- 7To the right of the Lorestone is a Rune Door. Focus on it to activate the puzzle.
- 8Continue past the Rune Door. A chained door is on your left. On the right, head onto another pier.
- 9Near the end of this pier, lower the drawbridge on the right. Cross it and ascend the stone stairs to the platform with the mask.
- 10Look through the mask to return to the dark world.
- 11Cross the now-lowered drawbridge on the right side of the platform and use the other pier to reach the inland island with the tower.
- 12In the dark world, the gate ahead (previously chained) is now broken. Enter through it. Dillion's light is visible inside the tower, but the door is overgrown.
- 13Find another mask and focus through it to return to the light world.
- 14In the light world, the tower door is open. Inside, on the ground floor against the right wall between two staircases, find Lorestone ᛖ (2/6).
- 15Climb one of the staircases. Line up the light shining through the far window with a pile of boxes to find the Rune ᚠ.
- 16Exit the tower by unbarring the door opposite your entry, then turn left and unbar the outer door leading back to the tower's front.
- 17Use the mask on the water platform to return to the dark world.
- 18Use the second pier and lowered bridge to return to the tower's front at night. Open the door and the inner gate to enter the tower.
- 19Dillion's light is visible on the level above.
- 20Find Lorestone ᛏ (3/6) along the back wall ahead.
- 21The stairway to the right of the Lorestone is shattered. Focus on the pieces to the left of the tower's entrance to repair them.
- 22Ascend the stairs to the level above. Dillion's light passes through another Rune Door.
- 23At the top of the stairs, find Lorestone ᚱ (4/6) ahead and to your right.
- 24Activate the Rune Door puzzle.
- 25Use the mask in the middle of the room to return to the light world. You will see ᛏ Runes. Find the Rune in a window next to the upstairs staircase. Use loose planks to complete the ᛏ arrow shape.
- 26Take the wooden staircase to a higher level. At the top, lower the drawbridge on your right but do not cross it.
- 27Continue along the path on the outside of the room to a locked door.
- 28Turn right and follow the path. On the left side, find Lorestone ᚨ (5/6).
- 29Continue until the path turns. Unbar the door on the left (you don't need to go outside). Return to the bridge.
Tips
- The core mechanic is using masks to switch between the light and dark worlds, which changes the environment and allows progression.
- Pay attention to environmental clues, especially light sources, to solve puzzles.
- Lorestones provide backstory and are often found near puzzle elements.
- Runes are required for Rune Doors and are collected by solving environmental puzzles, often involving aligning elements or completing shapes.
