The music is what got me. It got inside my head and everytime I was on the last few puzzles it would start to speed up and it really messed with me psychologically. I was ECSTATIC when I finally completed it.
I never actually understood the maze puzzle first time through. I just got so good at sight reading the other puzzles that I was able to throw most of my time away at the maze.
I loved it , I didn’t cut it as close as OP but like had 3 more seconds to spare bc I got so lucky with LIT EVERY SINGLE RANDOMIZED PUZZZLE. My fave game
Flashbacks. XD A tip which helped me a lot was that in the 3x black and white panels, if there is a 2x2 square with alternating colours, it's impossible to solve so you can rule it out. I also just took a photo of the maze with my phone every time.
I just beat this the other day and I just realized that the maze was supposed to be memorized from the fourth puzzle... In all of my attempts I brute forced the maze just trying and trying and lost so many time there, but managed to get it eitherway dont know how XD Good job that you realized what was going on, i should have thought i was doing it wrong
Pro tip: (you're probbably never gonna play this game again but) In the 3 choose 1 pannel if you see a checker board pattern on a 2x2 square it is impossible.
@@ChrisMMaster0 it’s a good tip, it feels I tried to brute force it too late in the evening. And it worked! 😂 Looking at it again now I see a lot of things I would have done better. I haven’t played the game since, but think of it quite often. 🤗
@@faland0069 yes, it’s been out on iPad/iPhone/Itouch for like 2 years now I would say...and they’ve updated it regularly to improve performance and graphics as hardware gets better. It doesn’t look as nice as console/pc obviously, but it’s the same exact game in all respects and it still looks gorgeous. Nice little game to have on the go for sure.
I like how all the people here talk about how this sound makes then anxiety but I think I've played this game too much to where this song is peaceful again, like I'll do the challenge for fun every so often
I hate that you completed it in a chill pace with some questionnably easy mistakes 😄 I'm not into challenges and achievements in games but damn this challenge got me #ChallengeAccepted
This challenge was crazy to me because the time I beat it was the onllyyy time I got past the maze (after the like 2 “possible” out of 6 “impossible” puzzles) and I was p much at the end of the song and I hit up the first pillar piuzzle , thought it was the only one, heard the music going still and had to finish the last pillar puzzle in like 3 seconds did it the first try, couldn’t believe it
Also this last challenge section put this game over the top for me in terms of my favorite game ever, I love puzzles and like Grieg is p cool, esp paired with a timed puzzle component
For the section where you need to figure out which puzzle is solvable, look for criss-cross patterns that don't touch the edge. These are unsolvable and should be spotted before attempted to solve. With the cylinder puzzles, try to examine the entire thing and not just focus on one section, easier said than done though.
I got to be honest. of course i mean no offense towards you or anyone it is just an opinion. But you were allot slower then me at most puzzles and i really had a hard time beating the challenge so i think you got really lucky on the pillars. Also dam you might have had 0.2 seconds left or something XD
And I did the pillars in less than 30 seconds total doesn't necessarily mean your slower than me, but peoples minds work differently where I can roll through the tetris puzzles in no time and struggle with the star ones. My friend was the opposite.
@@jaidenpearson8494 yes, looking at this video again, without having played the game for years, I feel the urge to scream at myself from time to time. 😅
Lol yes took me many month to get it. If you practice the puzzles you can get a little quicker. The maze is actually the hard part because it’s all depends on the path you drew on the other puzzle at the beginning
I always heard how bs hard this was, but when I actually did it I found it to be way easier than I was thinking. I thought the song was like super short but it's not. The only difficult part would be the 2 sets of 3 panels where some are impossible and you have to choose the right ones. And the very end with the spinning pillars. I hate those pillars Took me about 4 attempts to do it
listening to this now gives me anxiety lol
Where on the same boat
Oh my god it is stressing me out immensely , I keep failing just at the brink and having to turn on the record again
that last second realization of WAIT IT"S A CYLINDER is practically audible
The music is what got me. It got inside my head and everytime I was on the last few puzzles it would start to speed up and it really messed with me psychologically. I was ECSTATIC when I finally completed it.
I just randomly heard the first of the two songs. I completed the challenge years ago and instantly got super stressed out XD
The attempt of doing this challenge became a traumatic experience for me
I never actually understood the maze puzzle first time through. I just got so good at sight reading the other puzzles that I was able to throw most of my time away at the maze.
The puzzles aren't hard. It's the short time limit you have to solve them that is.
I consider this the most intense moment of my gaming history.
06:02 the moment you found the sprint button.
Haha, I really didn´t need the sprint button before that moment!
No matter how many times i listen to this song, it will always give me anxiety, in a good way.
Glad we can all share a common bond of ptsd over this music.
just did this myself and did it also barely. This music is soo good for this challenge haha
That why i sometimes come back here. it was the best part of the whole game this challenge in combination with the music.
I loved it , I didn’t cut it as close as OP but like had 3 more seconds to spare bc I got so lucky with LIT EVERY SINGLE RANDOMIZED PUZZZLE. My fave game
Seems like everyone else is saying the challenge is easy yet I get slapped with the most jaw-droppingly difficult puzzles the game can generate.
Hang in there! 😅

Ugh, I just choked on the last puzzle...I’m never going to beat this....edit: I just beat it and I’m speechless (on iPad too fyi)
the witness exists on ipad??
Hol up ipad??

Wow! That was amazing.
Thanks!
Wow, you really cut it close! :D
To those who need help with this, click on read replys, I set it up this way to avoid spoilers. Feel free to add more tips here.

I can now understand why someone asked me to beat The Challenge for them on PS4, this is awful!
2:29 I was shouting, "The right one, the right one!" at the screen
My god... that was awesome dude
Thanks man! Certainly not the fastest, but cutting it closest. 😁
Funny how the song ended but they still got it
They enter the 7th dimension 50 seconds in
Por favor Alguien que me ayude a ganarlo por share play? Por favor que se me termina el ps plus
I got to be honest. of course i mean no offense towards you or anyone it is just an opinion. But you were allot slower then me at most puzzles and i really had a hard time beating the challenge so i think you got really lucky on the pillars. Also dam you might have had 0.2 seconds left or something XD
If you had hard time beating it then you were probably working at the same speed as this guy lol
Not really. I did most of them pretty fast. But i always screwed up at the pillars.
And I did the pillars in less than 30 seconds total doesn't necessarily mean your slower than me, but peoples minds work differently where I can roll through the tetris puzzles in no time and struggle with the star ones. My friend was the opposite.
@@killerchampion7554 i can help, add me , my psn is Jacklerr
This challenge is all about luck and that’s why i hate it so much
3:17 you completely unwinding from here when essentially had the answer was painful to watch
@@jaidenpearson8494 yes, looking at this video again, without having played the game for years, I feel the urge to scream at myself from time to time. 😅

nope, screw that, not even gonna try
wow
I hate this stupid challenge so much
Movement was far too slow. The only reason you managed to pass this was because you took a photo of the maze layout
Stop being a bad sport. Pausing also counts as stopping the music, so that strategy doesn't work.
Its possible to take a picture of the screen with your phone instead of remembering the maze. Some people are not visual thinkers.
why so slow!? im bored look it
