How to solve the waste disposal Tetris puzzle in the Resident Evil 4 remake

Ah we meet again

From Chapter 13 onward in the Resident Evil 4 remake  you wouldn’t expect to see many puzzles, but then they hit you all at once. Here’s how to solve the Tetris-like puzzle in the waste disposal area of the Resident Evil 4 remake.

How the Tetris puzzle works

We’ve covered this before, but here’s a recap:

If you’ve ever played a game like Pipe Mania, this mechanic will be familiar.

Your job is to rotate all three of the square tracks (outer, middle, inner) to form a connection from the top (the power line) to the two electric icons (in the center and the bottom). The catch? When you rotate each square, all the pieces on that square will rotate with it.

When trying to do puzzles of this sort, figure out a way to divert power to one of the icons and work backward from there. Much like the lithograph puzzle, it won’t take you too long if you’re prone to trial and error tactics; as there’s only so many combinations you can choose from via brute force.

The solution to the Resident Evil 4 remake waste disposal Tetris puzzle

For this puzzle, you’ll need to divert power exactly like the image above.

When you’re ready, flick the switch at the bottom (which selects the square tracks) to “lock in” your solution.
