How to Solve the Drawbridge Puzzle in Big Walk

Gameplay telemetry and reference asset for Big Walk.

Lowering the drawbridge in Big Walk allows your squad to venture past the opening zone into new regions and advanced towers.

Opening this path requires obtaining four gourd-shaped items from the initial area. Groups can address these challenges in any preferred order. One trial demands pressing several switches at the exact same moment; using an audible countdown ensures everyone triggers their node simultaneously. Another obstacle places a button out of standard reach, requiring teammates to stack on top of each other so the top climber can hit the mechanism.

For the container trial, a sealed box must be kept energized. One teammate operates the telescope and keeps its button depressed to maintain the container's active state, enabling a second explorer to grab the item. Once all four collectibles are deposited into the starting structure, collect the unlocked key. Take this item through five key-cutting devices—two along the shoreline and three to the north—then slide the cut key into the gate console to lower the drawbridge.
