Watchtower Looking Glass and Hidden Trapdoor

Match the journal’s viewpoint, align the fallen masts through the looking glass, and return to Leni to uncover the entrance.

Where does the watchtower clue lead?

Align the looking glass with the fallen masts below, then return to Leni beside them and interact to uncover a trapdoor. This is the earlier ruins puzzle in Chapter 3, before the late mirror and platform rooms.

Find and align the looking glass

  1. Find the ruined house doorway that matches the journal’s sketch. Look through it toward the watchtower.
  2. Grapnel up to the tower’s platform and use the circular looking glass.
  3. Adjust the view until the fallen masts below form the journal’s X-shaped landmark.

Return to the marked location

Grapnel down, walk to the fallen masts, and meet Leni. Interact with her to uncover the trapdoor, then descend.

  • Aligned the view but still on the tower? The remaining interaction is below, beside Leni.
  • Collected a Resonance Point but found no entrance? The tower has a separate pickup; collecting it does not finish the puzzle.
  • Facing movable light reflectors? Use the later Chapter 3 guide.

Sources and scope

The journal viewpoint and X alignment follow Marie Pritchard’s Eurogamer watchtower guide, using the existing research extract. The tower route, separate pickup, and Leni’s trapdoor interaction were cross-checked against Richard Seagrave’s GameSpew walkthrough, Chapter 3. No local gameplay reproduction was performed. Return to puzzles by location.
