Here’s a detailed guide to solving the puzzles in Control, specifically the Mirror Room (Self-Reflection Mirror Computer Puzzle) and the Light Switch Cord Puzzle.

Mirror Room (Self-Reflection Mirror Computer Puzzle)

The Mirror Room puzzle involves a computer that controls shutters, which must be adjusted to unlock a door leading to the mirror world. Follow these steps:

1. Position Yourself: Stand in front of the computer that operates the shutters.

2. Adjust the Left Shutters:
– Back of the room: Open
– Middle: Open
– Closest to the computers: Closed

3. Adjust the Right Shutters:
– Back of the room: Closed
– Middle: Closed
– Closest to the computers: Open

By configuring the shutters in this manner, the door will unlock, allowing you to access the mirror and continue your mission.

Additional Puzzle in the Mirror World:

Inside the mirror world, there’s a “movable square on a cube” puzzle:
– You will need to maneuver a square around a cube displayed on a monitor.
– As you move the square, it will alter lines on the cube.
– The objective is to replicate the cube’s reflection that you previously observed to unlock a chest.

Tips:
– Pay close attention to the details of the reflections as they can guide you in positioning the square correctly to match the intended shape.

Light Switch Cord Puzzle

While specific details on the Light Switch Cord puzzle in Control aren’t extensively covered, here are some general strategies that you can use:

1. Observe the Environment:
– Walk around and take note of the layout. Look for any visible cords or switches and any potential clues in the surroundings that may indicate which switch controls which device.

2. Trace Cords:
– If you can see cords leading from the switches to devices, trace them visually to deduce which switch corresponds to which item. This is often crucial in understanding the layout of a light switch puzzle.

3. Activating Switches:
– In similar puzzles, activating switches in a specific order based on observed patterns or environmental context is vital. You might need to experiment cautiously with different combinations until you find the correct activation sequence.

4. Use Telekinetic Powers:
– If the puzzle allows, utilize Jesse’s telekinetic abilities to interact with switches or connected objects. This may reveal hidden mechanics or facilitate activating parts of the puzzle.

Look for Patterns:
– Especially in rooms with mirrored elements or symmetry, identifying those patterns can give hints about the correct sequence or configuration required to solve the puzzle.
