How to Solve the FISH HEAD/MURAL Puzzle!!!! - EASIEST SOLUTION! - Call of the Sea Guide

[@willlive6845]

This had to be the most difficult puzzle in a game, there were just so many ways to interpret this ouzzle

[@UniversalStand]

Agreed! Its the most poorly thought out puzzle I’ve seen in a game. Its so bad that this channel is still misinterpreting it in his explanation.

[@Stunbunny]

This is the first and only source I’ve found to explain this puzzle so it makes logical sense. That is all I wanted-not a brute force solution with absurd logic behind it. Thank you so much!

[@somrikgolhi8305]

A crisp and succinct explanation. You are a godsend.

[@spawnmonkee8358]

I don’t know what succinct means hahahaha but thank you!

[@mecomolacabeza]

The only video I have found that explain this puzzle! Thanks a lot!!

[@spawnmonkee8358]

Right? I had to make it!! thanks for watching!

[@OmniaAbdo]

Probably the only video on KZbin that explains the logic behind the puzzle in a way that actually makes sense and quite simple. You have my gratitude my fried. Million thanks!

[@OmniaAbdo]

Friend*

[@MiisGleek2013]

Thank you! I would’ve never guessed it by myself. I think the note about rotating the north star was what confused me, I thought the diamonds were supposed to rotate with the north star

[@spawnmonkee8358]

i made every mistake you could lol

[@Chey60]

Excellent…. Playing for the first time in 2024! Very well done

[@aaronthesaxman660]

Oh my gosh thank you so much. Fried my brain trying to figure this out. Thanks for the explanation as well, not just showing the answer

[@saruboss18]

Oh thank you, yes i could have looked at a guide and got the solution but not knowing how it works really makes it feel incomplete. Thanks for explaination!

[@spawnmonkee8358]

same here! which is why when i got it by luck, i loaded a previous save and figured it out haha took way too much time

[@spawnmonkee8358]

Nothing worse than getting a tough puzzle right by blind luck, so here's a video really showing how it works.

[@TyrannosaurusCHEX]

Really good explanation, seeing it laid out like that made so much better then anything else has ever done - there are way too many unnecessary complications in the clues on this puzzle as well as the stars and diamond symbols not looking remotely similar so unless you are some sort of puzzle solving genius there's very little way of approaching this logically.

[@jimx4u]

Thanks homie! Really appreciate you helping explain how this works. Every other person made it too complicated or just showed the answer.

[@FeralSheWolf]

Thanks so much, man. All the text explanations I saw gave me NO insight lol, you laid it out nice & clear!

[@zainhijudeen9237]

Had to look this one up, and although the internet had instruction on what to do it never really explained it and i wasn't gonna proceed until i understood how it worked. thanks man

[@autumnmatthew3185]

You are awesome! IGN was awful at explaining. Subscribed! Keep it up!

[@spawnmonkee8358]

I think this puzzle was super simple in the game designer's head but didn't translate to the rest of the world haha Thank you so much Autumn!

[@babbisp1]

I noticed something trivial. If you go to the tent (seen at 0:43), and look at the desk in there which has four notes, the leftmost note you find seems to depend on the version of the game. Some find a note that doesn't actually register as a note for the journal (so it's not needed for 100%), while in others, it does count and it looks different altogether, and it's even shown in the journal, taking up most of the left page. For example, you got the former, so nothing was shown of it in your journal page (seen at 0:35), unlike in mine. My note reads: Rotating the "north" in the wheel causes the symbol to change quadrant The other note (based on youtube videos) reads: The panels rotate by moving the dial... Sentence start? Changing the "north" There are 13 or 14 notes in this puzzle area, depending on which one you have in your version. Maybe it's a PS4 thing (since that's where I'm playing), or maybe it's an update thing (I'm playing on 1.01).

[@spawnmonkee8358]

whaaaaaaaat. do you think your version made this puzzle less confusing?

[@tacticallooter]

@@spawnmonkee8358 Made it more confusing to me because I thought the four symbols from the last puzzle had something to do with this one

[@tacticallooter]

So I thought I have to build the words somehow

[@Moon.6347]

You made this sooo much easier and ngl it was kinda fun learning for once

[@spawnmonkee8358]

It always feels better to actually understand why it works! Getting past a puzzle due to luck or infinite attempts just isn't satisfying lol

[@_xir0]

just by looking at the explanation from number 1 and 2 I was able to solve the rest, thanks a lot!

[@BlazeFireXERO]

Never in my life could I have figured this one out on my own. From a glance, It appeared to be a Myst level 'overthink everything to find the solution' but then I see this and I think 'oh, It was that simple'. I thought the original idea was that (and this might sound silly); You took the positions of the ORIGINAL singular glyphs and then played pokemon with them ala the final puzzle in Broken Sword II. xD

[@spawnmonkee8358]

I haven't played a pokemon game since silver and gold hahahaha is there a similarity to this and the final puzzle in Broken Swords?

[@Cappybara567]

Quick and well explained, thank you!

[@alycatlovesbooks3979]

Thank you!!!! I was getting so frustrated that I couldn’t understand the logic behind the puzzle. You’re a rockstar 😄

[@spawnmonkee8358]

Glad it helped!

[@k1thz582]

best video that really explains the puzzle in a very easy way, thank you so much!

[@drkingofokay]

Thanks for explaining. Hate when people show the answer but not how they got there.

[@greencheek2745]

You're a life saver! Or I guess game saver...! Thank you!

[@tiio6883]

I had an additional note, I guess they added it because it was too confusing…it didn’t help at all because they wrote the important word in quotation marks so it became extremely vague! I thought I had to build each symbol one by one instead of building them all together. I should have payed attention which note was added when into her journal, but there were so much info threw at me all at once that I got confused. Thanks for the explanation, really appreciated! 🔥

[@hectormorales8168]

Really well explained. Thanks bro.

[@spawnmonkee8358]

you're welcome hector! this was one of the worst puzzles i've ever had to play through

[@Allysillyslate]

This actually helped so much

[@War624]

Definitely just brute forced it. I did get the two on the right side, but the two on the left had my brain fried. I'm not much of a puzzle gamer, but the story sounded intriguing, so I'm giving it a shot right now.

[@theimpossi8le216]

Great video, thank you!!

[@spawnmonkee8358]

You're welcome! After doing the puzzle, I knew I needed to make a video!

[@Red24DryBones]

Thank you! What to solve was my issue. The note about symbol combination, their meaning, plus the numbered quadrants pushed me to try to combine the symbols on the mural to make the new symbols on the note. 😅 It made no sense. I still don't get how we are suppose to focus on the puzzle when the notes point elsewhere.

[@caramel5556]

Thank you! Now I can sleep peacefully.

[@khaieon2958]

Excellent explanation. Keep it up

[@YonathanG]

Oh man thanks! By the way, upload more vids! You do a good job :)

[@spawnmonkee8358]

Thanks Man! I'm gonna get back on it soon. I need to get a better computer! haha

[@toastee5421]

It's like an advanced Dora the Explorer episode.

[@spawnmonkee8358]

Do YOU know how to get the fuck out of here? Do you?

[@19bilu10]

Very good explanation. Thanks!

[@spawnmonkee8358]

Hey you're welcome man. "Hardest" puzzle in the whole game honestly.

[@broskipro7180]

thaaaaaank you! super helpful.

[@TheMasterpieceArtist]

this puzzle is one of the worst puzzles that i have ever seen the papers next to it and the hints shows you that its complicated and you have to combine words to make it in the right order so i thought i had to combine shapes because one shape equals a word and there was only one word for each one and i have to form the right sentence but i didnt know how to connect them i tried so many things and then i went a level deeper and started creating new sentences and then i went even a level deeper than that and started looking at the shapes on the walls that looked like numbers from previous puzzles so i had to combine them with the phases of the transition of a human into a water animal but that didnt work so i went too deep this time and i started deciphering the other shapes on the wall to translate them to english based on the numbers and the words that are already translated and the understanding of the phases of the human transition but in the end i gave up after looking up the solution it turns out you just have to match the same shape like youre a 10 year old and everything written on the papers did not matter and theres no logic or a meaning for the puzzle and that makes me so mad about the time i invested in this

[@spawnmonkee8358]

I can't tell you how many hours I wasted just like you did. Truly one of the worst puzzles in a video game I've encountered.

[@23impresion]

Totally, thanks that I just gave up after one hour, because I would never get the solution, it’s just so bad explained and the “clue” about combining simbols to create sentences is just shit

[@mileh-c2093]

Jesus christ this took way to long to figure out cheers man

[@spawnmonkee8358]

No problem man. Took me hours!

[@red.net.]

THANK YOU SO MUCH istg this game is so hard bruhhh

[@dram906]

How long did it take you to figure it out? I gave up after 10 minutes but I was thinking the stars were rotating quadrants as well

[@spawnmonkee8358]

Dude... since I didn't look it up online, I randomly got it right after 2 hours. So I loaded up a save spot before the puzzle and spent another hour figuring out how it ACTUALLY works. I knew i was overthinking it, but didn't know which aspect of it haha hope this helped.

@@spawnmonkee8358 I really didn’t want to look it up but after an 1 hour and half I randomly got it too, but unlike you I did not stay to figure out but just went to websites and eventually here. Btw thanks for the simple explanation 👌

[@AbleAnderson]

Ultimately I'm disappointed in this puzzle, because it could have been so much more. I was going for a much deeper understanding and really trying to intimately learn this language and what these symbols meant, even the ones that weren't fully explained, and then I was trying to sort of tell the story in order and figure out how to get each section to say what it needed to say. For this to ultimately just be a silly "how many times does this appear," it just feels really silly, like something that didn't require a deep understanding, but it became more of a guessing game as to what specific idea the devs had when constructing this. I think a good puzzle lets you study something, figure it out, intuit a pattern, and solve it. If the devs had been thinking "how many times does the letter R appear in each symbol," it feels more like a cheap gimmick instead of something deeply satisfying

[@DanteHellDrive]

just needed that hint that "in how many quadrants symbol is present in?" I was trying to rotate the n-star and see if it altered the symbol in mural lol

[@antoniohenriquegomesribeir6536]

muito obrigado me ajudou muito, nem sei como te agradecer!

[@corrineromero1761]

How do you find out what quadrant the words are in. I don't understand how I was supposed to get that.

You bet man!

[@CarlyMonster]

Thank you!!

[@thulyoaraujo8271]

Thank youuuu!

[@mgbob600x]

I can't seem to understand why the last one HAS to be 1-2-4, if you rotate the northern star to the east (or right) position, it could be read as 2-4-3.

[@spawnmonkee8358]

I thought the same thing. Just makes this puzzle even more dumbfounding.

[@DenverDerwood]

Thank you 😎

[@spawnmonkee8358]

No problem!!!!

[@mooncalf_69]

This puzzle is so fucked up i dont think you have to solve it in that way of thining that you did but you helped me thanks

[@spawnmonkee8358]

to be honest.... you're probably right. i have a feeling noone knows EXACTLY how to solve it the way they intended.

[@JudgeJaco]

Thanks man! But in my log number 3 (water animal) is empty. I didn't miss any note and murals. Weird! Edit: I forgot to interact with the water animal sign on the wall

[@R3T41L]

it took me 4x to watch this explanation in order to properly understand the logic behind this puzzle. Even with diamonds rotating, which is the most logical sense, this puzzle will still be very hard to solve. Without diamond rotation, it's pretty impossible to understand it. I was thinking all the time that paintings on the wall are reference on how to rotate

[@naomiclark6086]

Thank you :)

[@spawnmonkee8358]

You're welcome Naomi!!

[@BloodScorchedSun]

Was definitely overthinking it but this was not explained well in game at all. The rotation example doesn’t really make either.

[@spawnmonkee8358]

the developers really fumbled this one. but i'm glad i was able to help Nick

[@andresgsa24]

This puzzle is absoluteluy crazy. How can I know the pattern changes each time I move the north star

[@Alucarddevil666]

There is a note on the table which explains that.

this puzzle is stupid, seriously tho. The only puzzle that i dont feel bad for looking up on youtube cus the fucking hints are just too distracting, they make you interpret all over the place, yet the solution is much, much more simple. Like the 4 hint, you only need the number, you dont need the words and the sympols written with it, it made me play the word combining game for hours for nothing.
