The Genshin Impact Paper Theater is this year’s puzzle-based Lantern Rite mini-game. Last year we were moving shadowy objects to try and work out what they were, but this time around we’re putting on paper plays. Each scene is a little platforming puzzle where an actor walks across a stage, and we have to get him to the objective by removing obstacles—pretty simple, right?
The way you do this is by swapping sections of the stage, helping the actor avoid traps that would cause the performance to fail. It’s fairly simple on the whole, but as is usual for these Genshin puzzle mini-games, it’ll likely get more complex as the event goes on and new mechanics are thrown into the mix.
If you’re just stepping into Genshin Impact 3.4, you might find yourself in need of the lovely-sounding Sand Grease Pupa to ascend the new character Alhaitham, or maybe you’re curious about the new City of the Deceased domain in the Desert of Hadramaveth. Either way, here are all of the solutions to the Genshin Impact Paper Theater event so far.
