Exploring the Remote Landmasses of Northeastern Ochkanatlan in Genshin Impact, players will be able to stumble upon the Night Island of Tozoz. Here is a puzzle with guardians of a mysterious source, for the solution of which you will need special skills of the cryo ictomisaur. Having correctly completed each stage and activated all the switches, you will open the way to the tower in the center of the island and find a secret room with a precious chest – the room is connected with the quest “Lonely Island Called “Night”“.
In this guide, we'll tell you how to find and solve the puzzle on Tozoz Island, activate the ancient engraved rings and three switches, and then get into the secret room with rewards.
How to solve the puzzle on Tozoz Island in Genshin Impact
To find the Night Island, head to Ochkanatlan in the northern Pyro region. If you open the area using the Archon Statue, you can automatically start quests such as “A Lost Traveler in the Ash Abode” and “A Dream of Distant Skies.” However, Tozoz is not directly connected to any of them, so you can safely visit the territory and start solving the puzzle.
The solution can be divided into 3 stages:
- Activating the ancient ring before the teleport;
- Finding and activating three switches;
- Activate the ancient ring above the entrance to the tower.
During the solution, you will not be able to do without the skills of the cryosaur or Ororon, who can not only jump high and hover, but also interact with the spirits inside some ancient objects.
If you have problems at any of the stages, we advise you to complete all the missions from the “Lost Children of the Forest” chain – they are directly related to the dragon egg in the secret room.
Activate the Ancient Ring with Engraving
To begin the solution, travel to the teleporter on the southern half of the island and use the Ictomysaurus mark on the railing on the left (aim the camera and press English “T”), changing your appearance to a Saurian.
Then hold down the RMB(right mouse button) – this activates the echolocation skill, which allows the creature to detect hidden objects and interact with engraved ancient rings (one of them is right by the wall to the right of the teleporter). Once you illuminate the round monument, a short demonstration of places with switches will start.
Unlock the switch in the east
Let's start with the block east of the teleporter: go down the stairs to the right and jump down to the area patrolled by spotlights.
As soon as you approach the switch, it will be blocked, and an abyssal monster in the guise of a warrior from the Folk of the Spring tribe will appear not far from you. Before activating the block, you need to defeat the monster. Try to avoid the spotlights, otherwise you'll have to attack and dodge the targeted fireballs from the Rainbow Beam source at the same time.
Unlock the switch to the west
Then run to the west of the island, also avoiding the spotlights along the way (this is not necessary if you are not too worried about incoming damage).
The second block is at the end of the pavement, along which light sensors fly. They periodically change locations, so you can try to carefully pass by, or quickly run to the end and have time to activate the switch – the result will be the same.
Unlock the switch at the top of the island
And the last switch is located above the island. Take the form of a cryosaur or select Ororon as the active character, and then go to the floating plate to the right of the entrance to the tower. After climbing on it, hold down RMB and point the camera towards the mark on the stone ahead (see the third screenshot above). When a purple ring appears around the creature, jump forward to the place where the buff mark was – picking up such effects will make you jump higher.
Follow the similar floating plates and climb up them (many of the plates rise automatically, so it's worth standing on them for a couple of seconds). At the top of the cliff there will be a rich chest (+5 Primogems and 2 Pyro Seals) and a pyrocule, as well as another plate – climb onto it and wait for the mechanism to finish moving up, and at the end, go to the area with the switch and start it.
Activate the Ancient Ring above the entrance to the ruins
Once all three switches are activated, move to the entrance of the tower. Use the Cryo Saurian's echolocation skill (pressed RMB) on the Ancient Ring above the entrance and wait until it glows red. If you do everything correctly, the door will open automatically. Inside you will find another pyrocule and a gap in the floor through which you can go down to the secret room.
If you somehow avoided important local quests before getting to Tozoz, then after reading the Ancient Diary in the secret room, you will start the quest “A Lonely Island Called “Night”“. Below you will find a precious chest, one Dry Purple, and an altar with a dragon egg.
The following trophies await you in the main treasury:
- Scarlet Obsidian Fragment;
- 10 Primogems;
- 3 Pyro Seals;
- Materials for upgrading the Refracting Bud weapon and its derivatives of higher rarity;
- 30 Adventure Experience Points;
The rewards also include random artifacts of low rarity, mora, and hero experience books (their number depends on your account rank).
