Broken Age Act 2: Vella’s Puzzles Walkthrough

Re-Pressurize the Space Room

Vella’s Puzzles in Broken Age Act 2

Your first puzzle as Vella is finding your way out of the gravity chamber that served as outer-space for Shay. To do so you’re going to have to follow a few simple steps.

1. Pick up the talking knife that tried its best to end your journey upon waking up. Don’t worry, he’s actually pretty useful and will not try to kill you again. Once you do that, head right and into the next area.
2. In this area you will notice a broken machine on the floor, a hose hanging from a door, and damage all around the room. Head to the large crack in the wall and pull out the fishbowl (it’s really Shay’s “space helmet”, but looks just like a fishbowl). This will allow the wall to repair itself as well as provide you with an item you’ll need later.
3. Head over to the hose but do not climb it, use the talking knife to cut off a small piece from the bottom.
4. Use the small piece of hose on the broken machine on the right. Connect the bottom tube with the top tube so that you can activate panel 36. Head back on over to the hose.
5. You can now climb the hose and use the talking knife at the top. Vella will now cut the hose and fall safely since the activated panel prevents a straight plummet. You now have the long hose.
6. Use the long hose to connect the middle tube on both the left and right broken machines. Anti-gravity is no reactivated and you can proceed to the next puzzle.
