Imbroglio: Complete Walkthrough

Come on in if you have problems solving any of the puzzles in Imbroglio. This guide provides

• an embedded video walkthrough with time stamps, and
• spoiler-hidden hints and screenshots of intermediate steps

for every puzzle in each puzzle world. Choose the world you’re interested in with the index on the right and you will find time-stamped YouTube links for the entire world and for separate puzzles as well as spoiler-hidden hints and screenshots of intermediate steps. As regards these screenshots, it should be noted that I tried to choose steps significant not only in terms of what has been accomplished so far but also in terms of what should be done next.

I am aware that there may be more efficient ways to solve some of the puzzles. Also, the steps given for some of the puzzles differ from the video solution because I found an easier way to get to the key after completing the video.

Feel free to comment about anything you may find noteworthy especially if some information is incorrect or a link does not work. I’d be happy to hear from you 🙂

FINALLY, this is still work in progress because I still need to add hints to most puzzles. I just wanted to throw this out there already for the time stamps that I cannot really provide on the YouTube page.

Hint:There is one platform than must be served first with a cube. To be able to maneuver the remaining two cubes to the other two platforms and to be able to access the key you have to position them before activating the first platform.

Hint:Difficult to give a proper hint here. Obviously two cubes have to go on the bottom platforms first. Work your way up from there.
Steps:

Hint:There is plenty of space to move blocks into. In order to get to the key you need to be able to drag a cube onto one of the platforms while the other platform is already activated with a cube.
Steps:

Hint:To get the cube on the platform you have to get the blocks out of the way first. One block should be simple to “remove”, the other two require a lot block/cube shuffling
