	Most of these puzzles should be treated like minesweeper, or sudoku - that is, look for rooms that have only one logical possibility and begin with completing that one room, and then work your way out to other rooms that have more than one possibility. So for example, in the third puzzle, you may have a room that requires 5 lights shining into it - in that case, there's only one wall that will have to have its light not on. The other rooms adjacent to the 5 light room should provide you with enough information to determine which wall that will be.

The other rooms adjacent to the 5 light room should provide you with enough information to determine which wall that will be.

-	Most of the puzzles follow a similar logical framework, with the first and second being by far the easiest of the three. The main three puzzles are randomized. For the final puzzle (the runes on the oculus itself) the puzzle is randomized, and at the bottom of this spoiler section is a link providing a set of triggers to brute force it - that is, if you don't want to try and solve it yourself.	+	Most of the puzzles follow a similar logical framework, with the first and second being by far the easiest of the three.

	If you DO want to solve it yourself, your goal is to get all rune colors in the order of roygbiv (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet) starting from any position (as the oculus wraps around itself.) The runes must also be oriented in the same direction (either all down, or all up - but if they are all oriented down, you will still have to flip the oculus itself to complete the quest.) You only receive 15 "moves" (rune flips) before the oculus resets, and when you flip a particular rune, it moves 3 spaces to the right and changes its orientation (from down to up, or up to down.)

		+	Reading the oculus can be confusing and will depend on the direction you rotate it. You can only see three runes at a time and rotating only moves two runes over. For example, assume the runes are represented by 1-7 and you can see 3, 4, 5

-	Confirmed for at least one variation of the puzzle, where 4 of the runes are facing one way and 3 are facing the other. I recommend organising the colours as numbers so that Red is 1, Yellow is 2 and so on, and then attempting to arrange them in order. - Hai

-	Found a variation of the puzzle where it set to 1 down, 6 up. This combination cannot be solved in 4 moves, as such Fate's statement should not be relied upon. - Hai.
