Use the Hell is Us: Solve the Watcher’s Nest Ceramic Flowers Puzzle guide if you’re stuck with one of the main puzzles in Vyssa Hills.
Hell is Us is third-person action-adventure game that aims to “return to the roots of adventure games” by getting players to rely on their instincts rather than way points and map markers. It’s ambitious and quite rewarding to make progress and discover stuff off the beaten path.
There’s a whole host of puzzles, mysteries and strange items to be found in the world of Hadea, where Hell is Us is set. Not to mention weird looking enemies too!
With that in mind, we’ve pulled together some guides which we hope are helpful. Please note that these won’t necessarily be step-by-step walkthroughs, but things to look out for to help solve the mystery.
Hell is Us: Solve the Watcher’s Nest Ceramic Flowers Puzzle Guide
As part of the main objectives of the game, you’ll need to unlock The Watcher’s Nest, hideout of the Vigil (no spoilers of course). To get in, you will need to find a couple of emblems that are scattered around Vyssa Hills.
As you enter you’ll be presented with quite a lot of things to consider in different areas of the hideout. First things first, you’ll need your ceramic flowers. Head through the hideout and head through the destroyed hole in the wall and down the ladder. It’s to the right of the armour that’s on display.

As you get to the next area after leaving the ladder you’ll enter a tomb with a large stone coffin in the centre. Atop the coffin, there’ll be a yellow orb which are your ceramic flowers.


Plant Your Flowers
Now you have the flowers, you can solve the puzzle. What you need to do, is slot the four ceramic flowers into the correct flower shaped slots in The Watcher’s Nest.
If you want to solve the puzzle there are a number of clues around The Watcher’s Nest that can lead you to the solution. Use the computer in the main room and the whiteboard for clues if you want to give it a go.


You’ll need to put the ceramic flowers in the following spaces:
- The symbol for grief in the space with the circular stone centre and eight wooden circles.

- The crest for the Vigil, which is the one on the right.

- The right slot where the blue banner is in the middle.

- This one is super sneaky and it’s behind the whiteboard. You want to put the ceramic flower in the left hand one.

You can now head back to the stone coffin below. Pull the lever in front of it to open it up. Inside you’ll find a passive relic, as well as a Blue Flower Scroll which you’ll need when you head to Lake Cynon (a later area).
Completing this puzzle will also unlock a new NPC in the Watcher’s Nest. He’s the guy you can take your completed Good Deeds and collapsed Timeloops to for rewards.
