The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Hints

Bridge Puzzle Solution

  • 1 of 6: The simplest solution I could come up with involves three block presses.
  • 2 of 6: Since the bottom right block can be used at any time to open Gates 1 and 4, you should first concentrate on getting Gates 2 and 3 both open.
  • 3 of 6: Checking the "Gate Release" Block Effects list, you'll see that the top right block will open Gate 3 if it's closed (and close Gate 2 if it's open), and the bottom left block will open Gate 2 if it's closed.
  • 4 of 6: So the first step is to use the top right block once if Gate 3 is closed.
  • 5 of 6: Then use the bottom left block once to get Gate 2 open.
  • 6 of 6: Then use the bottom right block however many times you have to to get both Gates 1 and 4 open.
