Walkthroughs

This is the Walkthrough and full guide for The Witness. Each area page is formatted so that the top of the page has a basic explanation of the area followed by puzzle hints, then the solutions.

This walkthrough is organized by areas found on the island, starting with the few you will come upon first. If you're not looking for the direct answers to puzzles and instead want to gain a better understanding of how to solve each kind, visit the Spoiler-Free Tips and Puzzle Types page for a guide on the rules and principles of each type of puzzle.

The following pages contain walkthroughs for The Witness in chronological order. Because none of the areas are named in The Witness, they will be referred to by the common community names that are devised around their landmarks.
