Gravewood Crypt: leaf plates and statue reset

Push the gargoyle statues onto the leaf-etched floor stones. Match the markings on the targets rather than assuming every decorated tile is part of the solution.

Keep space behind each statue

Before a push, check where you will stand for the next one. A statue pressed against another statue can block the approach tile you need. Moving the remaining statues into the same central cluster makes that problem worse.

Work outward from the target you can still approach. Once a statue is correctly placed, avoid moving another statue into the tile needed to reach the remaining ones.

Reset a blocked arrangement

Patch 1.0.4 added a statue-reset button in Gravewood Crypt. Use that control to return the puzzle statues to their starting arrangement when your pushes have jammed them together.

Advice saying the game has no reset describes the launch version before that patch. An older guide is not a reason to abandon the current save or replay the entire opening.

Situation	Action
You can still stand behind the needed statue	Continue toward a leaf-marked target
Statues block each other’s approach tiles	Use the puzzle reset control and retry
The reset control is absent in an old installation	Update the game before following launch-era recovery advice
A different statue room has a lever	Identify that room separately; it is not automatically Gravewood’s arrangement

Keep a manual save before experimenting, especially if you have not checked which build is installed. Saving preserves a route back if a separate collision or movement problem occurs.

Do not confuse this with the route key

The Silver Key route concerns the Orc Chieftain’s chest and Hollowgrave’s northwest door. Clearing that key route does not solve the gargoyle placement, and moving the gargoyles does not replace a missing chest key.

The current patch guide also covers the later cooldown and resource fixes, which matter if an old puzzle or combat walkthrough suggests reloading to reset item abilities.
