Episode 6

Artifact Seekers Festive Town Walkthrough

Artifact Seekers Festive Town walkthrough for the full Episode 6 route, including festival lanterns, fireworks, Amber Carp, Monkey King puzzles and all ten stars.

How to read this guide

Actions are grouped by location. Puzzle clues that come from earlier scenes are labeled instead of being replaced with an unverified universal answer. Starting layouts can vary; when they do, follow the method rather than copying a single board.

Main Walkthrough

01

Artifact Seekers Festive Town Opening and Lake Route

Help the festival cook, open the courtyard chest and redirect the bamboo channels to reach the lake and ruins.

  1. Begin in the festival courtyard. Lower the kite, speak with the woman beside the cooking table and collect Lantern 1/5. Search the scene for the broom, knife, stone pineapple, brush and the key needed for the chest.
  2. Unlock the chest and inspect its board. Use the clue found in the courtyard to set the marked pieces correctly, then take the bamboo sections and handle from inside.
  3. Use the broom on the obstructed roof or ledge to recover the metal carrot and dragon-head piece. Keep both items; they open later routes rather than the first courtyard exit.
  4. Place the bamboo sections and handle on the water mechanism. Rotate the channels until water reaches every required outlet, then operate the handle to reveal the path toward the lake.
  5. At the lake, search the red-flower bush and water's edge before moving on. Place the stone pineapple where its matching recess appears and continue toward the old ruins.
  6. Inspect the carved ruins column and record the arrangement on its stone tablet. Collect the signet and keep the column pattern for the sealed Festive Town door ahead.
Puzzle solution

Courtyard Chest Board

Randomized puzzle

Read the symbols and positions in your own courtyard clue rather than copying a screenshot blindly.

How to solve it

  1. Insert the key and open the chest panel.
  2. Compare the movable marks with the clue collected in the opening scene.
  3. Move each marked piece into its matching position to release the bamboo sections and handle.
Puzzle solution

Bamboo Water-Channel Puzzle

Fixed solution
Quick solution

Rotate every bamboo section until the stream forms an unbroken route through the board.

How to solve it

  1. Install all missing bamboo pieces and the handle.
  2. Start at the water inlet and rotate adjoining sections one at a time.
  3. Remove dead ends and connect the final outlet, then pull the handle to open the route.
02

Festive Town Library, Scientist and Kitchen

Use the ruins pattern to enter the library, obtain the firework list and unlock the kitchen with the metal carrot.

  1. Fit the signet into the patterned door and reproduce the ruins-column arrangement. Enter the library, then collect the heron piece, feather and book figurine while checking the shelves and floor.
  2. Find the numerical clue that belongs to the scientist's door. Enter the four digits shown in your game; the frequently pictured 5137 is only an example and is not universal.
  3. Speak with the scientist inside his house. Take the list of firework components and examine the window or shelf clue before leaving.
  4. Return to the library, place the book figurine in the cabinet and use the scientist-house clue to arrange the books or symbols. Take the ladder parts and the next route item from the opened compartment.
  5. Insert the metal carrot into the street mechanism. Move it through the carved path without crossing blocked edges to release the kitchen door.
  6. Enter the kitchen and collect Lantern 2/5. Search the shelves for ingredients and tools, but leave the main carp preparation until the Amber Carp and complete recipe are available.
  7. Repair the ladder in the library and climb to the upper shelf. Take the recipe, phoenix-head clue and cross-shaped key needed in the temple district.
Puzzle solution

Ruins Signet Pattern Door

Randomized puzzle

The target arrangement is printed on the stone column in the ruins.

How to solve it

  1. Insert the signet into the center of the door.
  2. Rotate or move the surrounding pattern pieces to match the ruins tablet.
  3. Check orientation as well as position; the door opens only when the full carving matches.
Puzzle solution

Scientist Door Four-Digit Code

Randomized puzzle

The four digits vary. Read the nearby visual clue; do not assume 5137 is the answer in your save.

How to solve it

  1. Identify the four objects or marks represented above the lock.
  2. Count or translate them using the clue found on the route.
  3. Enter the values from left to right and confirm the code.
Puzzle solution

Metal Carrot Path Puzzle

Fixed solution
Quick solution

Move the carrot through each open segment of the carved route until it reaches the final socket.

How to solve it

  1. Place the metal carrot at the starting point.
  2. Trace the open grooves and avoid sealed branches.
  3. Finish at the opposite socket to release the kitchen door.
03

Festive Town Temples, Dragon Fountain and Swamp

Open the temple district, restore the dragon fountain and build the monkey-gear bridge into the swamp.

  1. Use the cross-shaped key to open the route into the two-temple courtyard. Pick up Lantern 3/5, inspect the dragon statue and gather the loose fountain parts around the scene.
  2. Repair the dragon fountain by installing the missing head and pipe pieces. Rotate the pipe sections in stages until the water flows through the dragon system and releases the hidden item.
  3. Enter the temple with the damaged roof. Search the steps and pottery, collect saltpeter and the stone banana, and record any door or decoration clue before moving on.
  4. Place the stone banana on the monkey mechanism. Arrange the interlocking gears so every active gear turns and lowers the bridge.
  5. Cross into the swamp, speak with the panda and examine the damaged boat. Collect the boat-repair pieces and note the fishing location for the Amber Carp.
  6. Explore the abandoned building and surrounding platforms for the fishing equipment. Assemble the rod or line, fish the water and keep the Amber Carp for the festival cook.
  7. Open the temple trunk and complete its board in under six minutes to earn the timed-puzzle star. The trunk still opens if you exceed the star limit, so the story route is not blocked.
  8. Repair the boat and cross the water. Before leaving, inspect the group of three rocks because it becomes the clue-controlled entrance to the Episode 6 secret room.
Puzzle solution

Dragon Fountain Pipe Puzzle

Fixed solution
Quick solution

Create one connected water route through the installed dragon heads and every required pipe section.

How to solve it

  1. Install the missing dragon-head and pipe pieces.
  2. Begin at the inlet and rotate each junction so no required branch ends at a wall.
  3. Complete each revealed stage until water reaches the final dragon outlet.
Puzzle solution

Monkey Gear Bridge

Fixed solution
Quick solution

Place the gears from largest spacing to smallest so each neighboring pair meshes and the final gear turns.

How to solve it

  1. Insert the stone banana to activate the mechanism.
  2. Fill the widest gaps with the largest gears, then use smaller gears between them.
  3. Check that the rotation passes across the complete chain and lowers the bridge.
Puzzle solution

Temple Trunk Timed Puzzle

Fixed solution
Quick solution

Complete the trunk board in less than six minutes to earn one of the ten Episode 6 stars.

How to solve it

  1. Study the target before making the first move; the star timer begins with the puzzle.

  3. Finish the center and confirm before six minutes elapse.
04

Monkey Den, Yin-Yang Temple and Monkey King

Open the anchor box, beat the face disk within 30 moves and use the lotus and statue poses to meet the Monkey King.

  1. Enter the monkey den and collect Lantern 4/5 near the temple steps. Search the well area for the hook, mallet and glass-lotus parts.
  2. Use the recovered tool on the anchor-marked box and complete its internal mechanism. Take the route items from the opened box.
  3. Start the monkey-face disk puzzle. Rotate the rings and disks until every face is upright and correctly assembled; finish in fewer than 30 moves for the move-limit star.
  4. Use the newly recovered pieces to open the Yin-Yang mechanism, then enter the incense temple and search the altar, bell and side table.
  5. Assemble the glass lotus and place it in the matching recess. Reproduce the monkey-statue poses shown by the clue to open the route to the Monkey King.
  6. Enter the Monkey King's chamber, collect Lantern 5/5 and inspect the small table and hanging decorations. Speak with the Monkey King to learn what must be done next.

How to solve it

  1. Identify which facial fragments belong together before rotating any disk.
  2. Use the shared rings to bring matching upper and lower fragments into the same face.
  3. Avoid undoing completed faces and finish while the move counter remains below 30.
Puzzle solution

Yin-Yang Mechanism

Fixed solution
Quick solution

Rotate the nested parts until the white and dark curves form a clean Yin-Yang symbol.

How to solve it

  1. Set the large outer curves first.
  2. Rotate the inner disks so the opposite-color dots sit inside their matching halves.
  3. Confirm the continuous S-shaped boundary to open the incense temple.
Puzzle solution

Glass Lotus and Monkey Statue Poses

Fixed solution
Quick solution

  3. Move the statues' arms and bodies until all poses match the clue.
05

Monkey King Sedative, Temple Steps and Secret Cave

Brew the sleeping mixture, open the cave with the temple clues and recover the phoenix and jade route items.

  1. Strike the gong and read the resulting clue. Gather the sedative container and visit the incense-temple preparation area.
  2. Collect wolfberries and prepare the sleeping juice as indicated by the recipe. Bring it to the Monkey King and use the opportunity to search the chamber once he falls asleep.
  3. Take the firework tubes and remaining festival supplies from the chamber. You should now have all five lanterns collected across the main route.
  4. Return to the temple steps and use the visual clue to set their symbols or heights. The exact entries must match your displayed clue rather than a memorized screenshot.
  5. Count the marked features on the heron clue, then enter those counts into the related lock to open the secret cave route.
  6. Inside the cave, collect the six rubies and insert them into the stone flower or plate. Search the barrel area for Jade Figure 5/5 before leaving.
  7. Open the treasure chest and rotate the pipe sections until every required endpoint is connected. Take the phoenix and jade tokens released by the chest.
Puzzle solution

  2. Read the symbols from left to right and note their required heights or positions.
  3. Adjust every step to match, then activate the completed sequence.
Puzzle solution

Heron Feature Count Lock

Randomized puzzle

Count only the features indicated by the lock icons and preserve their left-to-right order.

How to solve it

  1. Place or inspect the completed heron clue.
  2. Count each requested feature separately rather than using one total for the whole image.
  3. Enter the counts beneath their matching icons to open the cave route.
Puzzle solution

Secret Cave Treasure Pipes

Fixed solution
Quick solution

Rotate the pipe tiles until every active endpoint belongs to one continuous closed network.

How to solve it

  5. Collect the wine and coal required by the cook. Return to the kitchen, clean and prepare the Amber Carp, combine the recipe ingredients in the shown order and cook the Festive Carp.
  6. Deliver the finished Festive Carp to the woman in the opening courtyard. This clears the food requirement for the celebration.
  7. At the scientist's scales, measure the saltpeter in five stages: balance 8 against 3 plus an empty 5 bowl; balance 8 plus 3 against the filled 5 plus an empty 6; balance 8 against the filled 6 plus an empty 2; balance 3 plus 6 against 5 plus an empty 4; then balance 3 plus 6 against 2 plus an empty 7.
