Each of the endings are determined by Vincent's choices during the week namely depending on where he falls on his Mysterious Meter , meaning that you can make each playthrough unique by talking to different people and choosing different responses while talking to people or answering questions in the confessional.

After you've successfully cleared the game at least once, you'll unlock the ability to replay all the puzzles you encountered in the Golden Playhouse aka, the game's story mode in the Colosseum.

Now's a great time to replay puzzles you've already cleared at your own speed and try to earn a gold trophy on each. Note that you will only be able to access puzzles in the Colosseum that you've already cleared in Golden Playhouse e.

Therefore, if you're looking to access different puzzles, such as "Normal" and "Hard" levels or the "Remix" puzzle mode, you'll have to go back through the Golden Playhouse again on those levels and modes. Babel is an additional puzzle mode that is progressively unlocked as you go through your first Golden Playhouse playthrough.

You can play Babel in either one- or two-player mode, meaning you can grab a friend to help you out. There are four stages in Babel Altar, Menhir, Obelisk, Axis Mundis , with each stage featuring common elements, though the actual structure of each stage randomly changes each time.

Babel is also the place where you'll be able to play as different avatars, such as Joker from Persona 5 only available through DLC on PlayStation consoles, automatically available for the Switch.

A good tactic in this phase, is to look for the bigger 'landing' the top surface of a wall at least 3 blocks wide and work up to there. Eventually due to the edge mechanic, several walls down the line the landing will be one solid surface again. Phase 2 corresponds to Level 4, and consists of steps It's basically a 'checkpoint' phase, with solid layers of 7-wide walls with alternating columns of cracked blocks. The first wall on this phase can be either 2 or 3 blocks high.

This starting 3 block wall should not be a problem to overcome regardless how awry the end of Phase 1 was - as long as the final landing of Phase 1 is 2 blocks wide the 2x3 technique can be used to traverse up, and then the series of solid 2-high walls allow a stable landing to be rebuilt. With the randomness prior cleaned up and starting with a flat landing, Phase 3 begins with a series of walls generally 7-wide and high. In many ways this is actually the easiest phase by abusing the 2x3 technique.

See: Babel Tips. One tricky pattern is the first pattern of Level 6 on the wall chart. Due to its alternating gaps and Cracked Blocks at the sides, along with the gap preventing a spider across, it's extra-hard to create a stable landing to build a solution from.

The solution up this wall needs to take this into account and allow for additional traversal options while building a stable landing. The walls in this phase narrow down to 5 blocks wide. It is beneficial to note that Level 7 the start of this phase is the hardest throughout Altar, due to the numerous single-step cracked blocks, and awkward landing shapes.

Geronimo is a very useful technique here, and generally planning to have the penultimate row serve as landings rather than the top surface, by pushing the top blocks out of the way sideways. For example, to deal with pattern 3 on Level 7 arguably the worst wall in Altar , step on the cracked block at d3 by walking on it, push f4 to the right, then pull-out f4 from the next wall if it's there.

The player s also receive 3 Energy Drinks in each attempt which lets them climb two blocks at once. The stages on Altar are dominated by Normal Blocks, Cracked Blocks and some Heavy Blocks placed in awkward patterns commonly interspersed with gaps from Cracked Blocks breaking.

Block patterns are usually wide, giving the player different routes to take. The stages on Menhir combine the three previous blocks with the addition of Trap Blocks, which start appearing as the player gets closer to the middle section of the tower. Stages can be as narrow as three blocks wide, requiring rapid movement and quick thinking to survive.

Obelisk introduces Ice Blocks, Bomb Blocks and Mystery Blocks along with all the blocks from previous stages, with Monster Blocks appearing at an alarming frequency once the player has reached the middle section of the tower. Spring Blocks make rare appearances soon after that. The tower is occasionally wide enough to fill most of the screen, but the random nature of Mystery and Monster Blocks limit the margin of error greatly.

The blocks are often arranged in highly complex patterns, making it easy to collapse most of the tower just by moving the wrong block at the wrong time. Extensive mastery of the "Edge" mechanic is a necessity.
