To be clear when I mean I got stuck I don't mean I softlocked myself out of proceeding. I mean I can't solve the puzzle because I haven't figured out the puzzle logic yet and don't know how to proceed.
My usual modus operandi is if I can't solve a puzzle, I'll go back and do other stuff in the game and come back afresh. But when I go in this puzzle room it locks you in until you can solve the puzzle to proceed. The trouble is when you don't know how to move on and it's the only thing you can do it tends to fry your brain. I'll try again tomorrow to solve it myself.
