Are you struggling to solve the Trading Post puzzle in Blue Prince? Our guide offers an in-depth explanation of the puzzle’s solution.

The Trading Post becomes available to you once you have progressed far enough into Blue Prince to unlock the western grounds. While the Trading Post room has its own uses, you’ll also find a puzzle box with a 3×3 tiled layout here. Solving this puzzle is well worth it, but it might seem tricky at first glance.
In this guide, we’ll explain how you can solve the Trading post puzzle in Blue Prince. We’ll also dive into the reward you unlock from doing so.
How To Solve the Trading Post Puzzle in Blue Prince?

The puzzle box will have tiles of different colors, namely four gray and yellow tiles and one pink tile. Your main goal here is to somehow move the four yellow squares to the four corners of the box. Before you can find the solution, let’s find out how the puzzle box works.
- Tapping any of the yellow tiles will shift it one place up, replacing any other colored tile that was previously there.
- Tap the pink tile to rotate yellow tiles right next to it. Every tap will move the adjacent yellow tile in a counterclockwise manner around the pink one.
Now that you know how the tiles operate, here are the steps you have to follow to get the solution.
- Step 1: Tap both the yellow tiles on the middle right-hand side once. Both will go up one slot.
- Step 2: Tap the pink tile two times to move the yellow tile to the top center.
- Step 3: Tap on the middle left-hand side yellow tile to make it swap places with the pink tile.
- Step 4: Click on the yellow tile on the bottom center. This will bring it to the top middle.
- Step 5: Tap the pink tile four times. Doing so will move the yellow tiles into the four corners of the box.
