Okay, so I’ve been seeing this “genshin mines puzzle simulka” thing pop up all over my feed, and I finally decided to give it a shot. Honestly, I’m not the best at puzzles, but this one looked kinda cool, and you know, gotta get those Primogems!

First things first, I fired up Genshin and headed over to the area where the puzzle is. I’m not gonna lie, I had to look up a guide to even find the darn thing. It’s tucked away pretty well! Once I got there, I saw all these weird mechanisms and glowing rocks, and my first thought was, “Oh boy, what have I gotten myself into?”
I spent a good few minutes just running around, poking at things, and generally being clueless. I tried hitting the rocks with different elements, activating the mechanisms in random orders… nothing. Then, I remembered seeing something about a specific sequence in one of those guides I skimmed.
- So, I went back to that guide (thank goodness for bookmarks!) and followed the steps exactly.
- You basically have to hit these Electro things in a certain order.
- And there’s this one part where you have to use a character. I use ZhongLi.
- It’s all about timing and making sure you hit everything in the right sequence.
It still took me a couple of tries, even with the guide. I kept messing up the order, or missing a shot, or getting zapped by those annoying Electro thingies. But, finally, after what felt like forever, I got it! The puzzle solved, the chest appeared, and I got my sweet, sweet rewards.
My Final Thoughts
Was it worth it? Probably. Would I do it again without a guide? Absolutely not. My brain just isn’t wired for these kinds of puzzles, but hey, at least I got some Primogems out of it! And now I have a story that I can share with my firends.
