Lava Temple Walkthrough

Follow the yellow line in the book

Read the nearby book. It states that yellow means okay — follow the highlighted path through the symbol chart. Count three symbols on the top row and two on the bottom row along that yellow route.

In the current layout, the follow order is: circle, triangle, rectangle, triangle, cross. Ignore decorative symbols not touched by the yellow line — entering random shapes wastes keypad attempts.

Pull the lever for Greek-letter values

After noting the five shapes, pull the lever beside the symbol wall. It assigns numeric values to Greek labels used in the second book page:

Enter 2118111 on the shapes lock

Concatenate the digits in order: 2, 11, 8, 11, 1 → 2118111. Some keypads display as 211 then 8111 — both refer to the same solution.

If the lock rejects input, re-check that you followed the yellow line only and that the lever was pulled before reading formulas. Patch updates rarely change the math, but always verify π/Δ/T6 values on the lever board first.

The puzzle codes page marks Lava Temple as a shapes lock rather than a Copy-button four-digit code — this is intentional.

Why players search "shapes code" separately

Google splits lava temple code and shapes code across the same intent. The shapes chart and lever board are one puzzle; flame colors and statues come after this door opens.

How to read the blank panes

Each reference panel shows a color wheel with two blank slots (pattern anchors) and one missing color you must identify. Read positional clues like below yellow or bottom left relative to the fixed colors on that panel.

Example logic from the first torch: if the missing slot sits below yellow and the chart shows orange in that position, cycle the torch flame to orange. Repeat for every torch station in the room.

Common flame mistakes

Confusing yellow and orange flames is the top failure — compare against the glass chart, not real-world fire colors. Mobile players should rotate flames slowly and wait for the click confirm.

Only the third blank on each chart determines the torch color; the two permanent blanks are alignment markers, not answers.

Cross the lava gap

Cutting the rope drops a bridge across the lava chasm. Without pliers, you cannot reach the upper temple — backtrack if the bridge stays raised.

A short lobby obstacle follows (platform hops). Take your time; falling usually resets the hop sequence but keeps inventory.

Open the upper door

After crossing, look for a button on the left wall to unlock the next chamber — easy to miss if you sprint straight toward the color canvas. The button is not on the bridge itself; sweep the left side after landing.

If the door stays shut, confirm the bridge fully deployed and every torch color still matches its panel (rare softlock if a player leaves mid-room).

Press colors in clue order on matching positions

Memorize the sequence red → blue → green → yellow from the wall chart. Then tap the canvas squares at the same positions shown on the reference board — not left-to-right on the canvas blindly.

Correct input clears spider webs blocking the statue puzzle ahead. Wrong order leaves webs in place with no error message — re-read positions if nothing changes.

Rotate every statue on both sides

Work one side of the courtyard, then the other. Each click rotates a statue one step — there is no reset button, so watch facing direction before moving on.

When every statue points inward, the map awards Burning Heart of the Earth and opens travel to Boss Fight. If the relic does not appear, one outward-facing statue remains — sweep both courtyards again.
