Genshin Impact puzzles and quests in Golden Apple Archipelago that players should not miss
1) Broken Isle Puzzle
The Broken Isle Puzzle in Genshin Impact is quite long as players need to glide to five different rock mountains around Broken Isle. However, this puzzle is worth the rewards as it will grant one Luxurious Chest and two Precious Chests.
To activate the puzzle, players need to take a picture of a mural inside a cave. The mural contains a drawing of the water level that corresponds with five different ponds. After that, players need to go to those ponds and change their water level according to the mural.
For the final step, players need to head to the beach north from the Broken Isle teleport waypoint. They will find a location with five pillars and five stones. Players must step on the rocks following the mark on the five different pillars to complete the puzzle.

3) Minacious Isle Whirlpool Puzzle
The Minacious Isle Whirlpool Puzzle is easy to miss as it is located far away from the main island of Minacious Isle in Genshin Impact. In addition, the Luxurious Chest is hidden under a whirlpool.

Reaching the underground cave, players can interact with multiple stone tablets. For the final puzzle, players need to crush the breakable rocks beside the stone tablet to discover a pressure plate. Set the in-game time according to the stone tablets and stand on the pressure plate.
