Tetromino Code

A content of a giant blackboard in Nuzu School explaining the process of reading tetromino codes.

Tetromino Code is a vertical sequence of tetromino symbols which contains a sequence of inputs to be pressed in order to solve a puzzle. It is a main way the game presents an Input Code to a player.

Reading sequences

A method of reading tetromino codes is explained on a blackboard within the Nuzu School. It can be read as following:

1. Separate the sequence into individual tetrominoes.
2. Rotate the entire sequence 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
3. Reading from left to right, press the input corresponding to each tetromino symbol.

Reading symbols

Interpretation of tetromino symbols can be learned from the Code Machine. It will display a matching tetromino symbol when a game input is pressed in its close proximity.

Appearance

Tetromino codes almost always appear as a vertical connected sequence. They are very often inscribed on purple monoliths scattered across the world, but they can be seen on walls, floors and maps as well.
