When you’re not busy whiffing perfect parries and yelling at your television inStellar Blade, you’re often solving puzzles. One of the first puzzles you’ll encounter is at the construction zone in Eidos 7. A tunnel leading to an Alpha Naytiba lies on the other side of a vast chasm at the end of the site. The only way to get across is by forming a bridge of steel beams with a crane.
