To solve the Indiana Jones Chamber of Resonance puzzle, you need to find six stone tablets and speak the words on them in the right order. Do this and you'll be permitted to pass through the chamber and close in on the Idol of Ra. However, this puzzle isn't like any you will have done previously and it’s not the most straightforward in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. If you happen to be stuck in the Resonance Chamber, either because you can’t find all six tablets, or you can’t get the right order for the words, I’ve detailed exactly how you solve the Chamber of Resonance puzzle below.
This is also the start of the point of no return for the Gizeh leg of Indy's adventure, so it might be a good idea to finish other puzzles, such as the Indiana Jones Cloud Atlas code and Indiana Jones Seat of Eternity puzzle, first.
Indiana Jones Chamber of Resonance puzzle solution walkthrough
To escape the Resonance Chamber in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, you need to take photos of six Adamic tablets scattered around the chamber, and then select the photos in a particular order to get Indy to speak aloud the correct sentence. However, only four of the tablets are in the Resonance Chamber, and one of them is broken, so you need to fix one and find the final two elsewhere.
Start by taking a photo of any of the tablets on the wall of the chamber, then use Dr. Lombardi’s journal when prompted. This plays a cutscene which sees Indy decipher the Vuha (oath) symbol and begin the puzzle properly, so here’s what you need to do to after that to complete the Chamber of Resonance:
- Take photos of the other two complete tablets on the chamber walls. This’ll log the Hat sha-Athon (The Lord’s) and Leneph (Protect) symbols.
- Next, look for the wall section with a narrow hole at the bottom. Crawl through to reach a hidden corridor – be aware that the lighter will get blown out by something, so just reignite it.
- Use the lighter on the nearby brazier, which will illuminate the fourth tablet showing the Eo-shohd symbol (the secret).
- Continue down the corridor and light the next brazier to reveal the fifth tablet, Lezeem (Heed).
- Carry on to the end of this corridor to find the missing tablet fragment. Pick it up and Indy will stow it until it needs to be used.
- Grab the nearby metal pole and use it to smash the fragile wall to your right, letting you reach the main chamber again.
- Place the tablet piece onto the broken tablet and then take a photo, getting you the final words for the puzzle – Al haht sheram (Of the name).
With all six tablets photographed, head over to the statue in the center of the resonance chamber and you’ll be prompted to lay the photos on the little table. By following the button prompts, you can get Indy to say each word out loud, and you need to do so in this order: Heed > The Lord’s > Oath > Protect > The secret > Of the name
Once you’ve done that, Indy will be forcibly transported further into this pyramid tunnel complex where you’ll then have to solve the Indiana Jones Light Chamber puzzle while searching for the Idol of Ra.
As mentioned in our Indiana Jones and the Great Circle review, we really liked the hands-on nature of these puzzles, but if you want help for other aspects of the game, be sure to check out our Indiana Jones and the Great Circle tips.
