Horizon Odyssey

[Matt Ryan]

Where is this place???? I am circling all map for hours.

The mech hideout is in the first part of Miameric Forest, but upwards. You have to unlock that area with the item you got from Salvorthos (the Magical Hack). It's on map #57 (Miameric Forest). If you're looking at the guide, it will tell you the order to do the bridge puzzle on the way to the mech hideout.

Also what you mean by

Spoiler: show

Make sure to set #8 to state 1

Am looking on the guide, every puzzle that I encounter have mistakes, Can you update your guide and fix mistakes. So people who bought it can re download it again.

In a guide it said u can move monolith if u have ability to do it. How to obtain it?

I love the game and I wanna progress further, but seems like I stuck beyond desperation.

Also where is

You shouldn't be able to get stuck in the forest. If you activate the water switch it changes where the rocks block the path. You'd have to have the water switch to its off state (the one you got to with the Magical Hack) to get out the forest entrance.

Go back to Miameric Forest (Map #57) and go to Grey #1 and unlock the magical door with Magical Hack. Activate the rippling water switch to unlock Grey #4 with the rocks. Make sure to set #8 to state 1.

This part here is all talking about Miameric Forest (Map #57). So, #8 is the crystal on that map. The crystal states is the part earlier in the guide when you were at Miameric Forest before:

So state 1 is the state shown here. This makes glowing squares cover the hole so you can cross.

I'm not sure what mistakes you mean. LadyJJ pointed out a mistake I had with one of the crystal puzzles in Vordenstople, but I fixed that one and uploaded it already. I'm working on making the Ctrl F feature work better in the guide as per LadyJJ's suggestions (for finding Orbs/Miasmas). I want to go through and make the instructions a bit more clear and explain the solution of the puzzles better, but I don't know of any of them being wrong. I've also added an Orb Milestone (it will show you what skills you learn as you collect more Orbs) list (not uploaded yet, I'm still fixing the other things), but that will answer your next question:

Obelisk is the skill you want to move the monoliths and Garreth learns it at 18 Freedom Orbs found.

Historian's Secret Room:

Spoiler: show

The portal where the Talti Notes were (House #6 on the Talti Map (Map #74) is now active and leads to a secret room (Map #79).

This is after you found all the locations mentioned on the Talti Notes and interacted with them.

I'm not sure what mistakes you mean.]

stuck for hours for one puzzle with boulders. Cant figure it out/ I bought guide, still cant get passed through.

Spoiler: show

2, 1, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4. - 2, 4, 1, 2. - 4, 4, 3, 4. - 2, 3, 4, 3, 4. - 2, 1, 2, 1, 2.

I'm not sure why the number order doesn't work. I tried twice and when I push them in that order, the rocks look like this:



The rocks have to stop moving before pushing the next number, that's the only thing I can think of. Or you can reset the boulder positions by leaving the cave and coming back.

As for the Talti palace puzzle, the secret door is the one that shows up to get to Garsi and Salvorthos (the guy that gives you the Magical Hack). I probably should have just put a picture of this in the guide, which I can add instead of my current solution:

WoW Matt, itsso nice of you to keep in touch with us that play your game and answer questions.
Have you played the millennium games. They have guides but if you pay attention to the
characters and what they say then you know what to do next and where to go

[Lady JJ]

I found the Horizon Odyssey guide to be extremely well done. There was that one puzzle mistake that Matt has already corrected, but there are tons of puzzles in the game and the guide does a really good job of navigating you through them if you get stuck. And, as Blumyst said, Matt has been extremely patient and generous while answering all questions. I like that the puzzles were based upon logic and no craziness like trying to outrun game-ending zombies or pummeling down a ravine where it's again game-over if you touch the perimeters. I love the fact that you can just think for as long as you want, and, if all else fails, the guide (or a forum post) will get you through it.

I'd like to know whether your decision in allowing him to live or die makes a difference to the game?

Thanks I want to help, I don't want people getting stuck on something. I've only played Book of Legends a while ago, not the Millennium games. I noticed it was hard to follow what to do next sometimes in Horizon Odyssey, which is why I added the prophet Tilde-e. I hope she helps out when people get stuck. Having the playable characters give hints on what to do next is something I can do for the next game if I do one

Thanks for the compliment - it's nice to see comments like this I don't like action puzzles either and I'm not good at them. I prefer strategy puzzles in RPGs. I'm still working on the guide today. I have the Ctrl F feature added, but I'm just going through and trying to make some instructions more clear where people have had issues with them. Then I'll upload it with all the issues fixed at once.

The main story won't change, but you lose out on a character and he adds some interesting dialogue to the game if he's with you. He also has a scene at the end of the game if you spare him and one of the other characters' endings will be different if you have him. Also, it makes Krantz extremely brutal if you kill him.

The portal puzzle doesn't have a reset switch, so the note in the guide is to save before starting it in case you mess up the path. The puzzle will still be solvable without the guide's path, but it is a challenging puzzle as this tower is an optional secret area. You can use the guide to see where each portal teleports you to if you want to solve it on your own. Otherwise, if you really want to finish it and can't figure it out, I can solve it on your save file if you send it.

Hi,
Would you mind sending me your save file for this? I can't recreate the issue in my game. You shouldn't be able to get stuck in the tower (as in you can't leave) if that's what you mean, but maybe the path forward has you stuck.
matthewgrantryan@gmail.com is my email if you do want to send it.

For the next floors, I'd suggest saving before starting the paths in case you mess up. The order of portals in the guide only works if they are untouched. You can solve them without the guide still, but it'll be harder.

Hi Matthew I am not computer smart sorry...can u tell me how to send u my save file?...so sorry to be so much trouble and thanks so much for the help u give...

No worries, if there's an error with the game I want to find out
The save files are in User/AppData/Roaming/Horizon Odyssey
You might have to show hidden items to see the AppData folder and if so:

You just have to check this. The save files will be called Save01.rvdata2 (or whatever number your save file is in the list).
