While having fun and different puzzles can be good, this is still a Sonic game, first and foremost. Which means, speed should be the main focus. Luckily, Sonic Frontiers did not forget that Sonic is a fast character, and has implemented many challenges outside of the main story to showcase Sonic’s speed, as well as the players skill. In this guide for M-012, we will show you how to successfully complete the puzzle that requires you to climb a tower in a set time.
M-012 Puzzle Guide – Sonic Frontiers
When you reach the challenge marker, you will see a stone structure that looks like an hourglass. Flip it over and you will start the timer, but not before it shows you what you need to climb up. This tower will have the goal at the top of it, so you need to reach the goal before the 65 seconds are up.
Getting up there is easy, it’s where you start is the difficult part. The best way to start is by using the jump pad that leads to a line of rings.
Once you reach the height of the jump, you will find balloons that will lead you to a handle that will lead you up. After which, it is now up to you to get up the rest of the way. I recommend to use the rails whenever you can, as they will lead you up faster than running or running up the walls.
