How to unlock the Spirit achievement in Pneuma: Breath of Life - Definitive Guide


This takes place on Chapter Two. There are a total of 5 flames that can be toggled using your line of sight, and you need need to have all 5 active at the same time while standing in front of the "flame" door which can be found in the second room.

The first flame is found directly in front of you when you spawn in the corner of the room. The second and third flame can be seen on either side of the doorway leading to the second room. The fourth flame can be seen shortly afterwards, upon descending the stairs it is seen standing in a corner before going through an "automatically opening" door. The fifth flame is seen after going through the next door backwards, around the corner. After viewing all 5 flames, make sure that the last time you looked at them, they were active, and return to the door at the top of the stairs. If all 5 flames are lit, the door opens.

Once inside, you must raise the bridge using vertical movement. Jump while looking at the eye, and look away while falling to continuously raise the bridge, until you can walk towards the pillar to unlock the achievement.

Simple solution for those with the bridge stuck up...

Turn away from the eye. Jump. Quickly turn back to the eye. It will fall back into place.

Simples.

Calling it Flame 5 confused me. It is Flame 7. Flame 5 and 6 are not part of the puzzle.

I had the same problem Woody. The issue is caused by having all 5 flames lit when you are traveling up the stairs (back to flames 2 and 3) towards the door. Something about moving vertically up the stairs with the eye in view glitches it to spawn the bridge up a bit.

So I'd suggest either leaving flames 2 and 3 until the very end, that way the door is closed when you travel up the stairs and you have no chance of triggering the eye, until you light flames 2 and 3. Or keep flames 2 and 3 lit but travel up the stairs backwards so you are never facing the door until you are fully up the stairs.

That fixed the problem for me, so hopefully it works for you.

This first of 3 missable achievements is found in Chapter 2. This begins at 06:20 in the video below.

There will be 5 flames you must light by looking at them to open the door with the flame above it. From the start, head forward and look at the eye to the right, backing away to raise its platform. Head up the stairs and make sure flame #1 in the stand at the top is lit when you leave (it turns on/off each time you look away and look back at it).

Through the next door you'll see flames #2 and #3 beside the door as you enter, as well as the flame door to the left that will open for an achievement once they're all lit. Make sure both flames are lit before you head downstairs (or leave them for when you come back to the door).

Head toward the door and look to the left just before you enter it for flame #4. Back away from the next door looking at its eye to open it, then look at your feet as you go toward it and through. Around the next corner to your left is flame #5. Make sure it's lit, then head back to the flame door, ensuring that flame #4 is lit as you pass. When you return, you may turn off flame #2 and/or #3 so make sure they're lit and enter the now-open fire door.

The bridge raises and lowers with you when you jump if you're looking at the eye. Look away and jump, looking back at the eye as you fall to lower it to your level. Get onto the bridge and do the opposite, jumping while looking at it and looking away as you fall. Once you raise it up and get to the sign, you'll get the Spirit achievement.

This is the "Spirit Puzzle" Achievement

The puzzle is located on Chapter II and requires you to switch/manipulate the five torches located at the start of the level. Once switch off they will ignite when you leave and trigger a secret door, you'll have to be careful not to flick any of the torches or it will close. Finally bounce at high level with the floor in order to view the pillar for the achievement. Check out the video for a better view.

For the spirit achievement you need to load up chapter 2, and the first thing you need to do is light up 5 flame torches you can do this by taking the torch of your screen then putting it back on.

The first torch is at the top of the first stairs you go up in the corner

The second and third touch is to the left and right of the door way you go through after the first torch

The fourth torch is in the corner after you go down the long stair case, but before you go through to the next room on the left hand side.

The last torch is in the corridor after the forth torch, you will pass two torches on your way but ignore them because they aren’t part of this chain.

Once you have lit all of the flames go back on yourself and go back up the stairs the door that was closed will now be open and there will be a bridge in front of you. You first have to lower the bridge which you can do by looking away from the eye jump then on the way down turn to look at the eye, keep doing this until you can get onto the bridge. Once you’re on just do the reverse look at the eye when your jumping and look away when your falling. When you get to the top walk straight ahead and a tablet should pop up along with your achievement.

If you need help with anything I have included a guide below.

This is not an Solution but an Hint for those who would have the same Problem like me.
( I read in the comment of someone who had that too but nobody answered...)

I had the Problem after doing this like in the videos- turning the flames off and on again-
but the door keeps close. i tried it a couple of times inclusive reloading the chapter after finishing the level and the game but everytime the same.

Then i tried to TURN OFF all flames cause i wondered all the time why i have to turn on the flames again after they were turned on all all the time.
And that WORKED for me!! While i stand in front of the opened door i turned the both flames on left on on and the door closed...

So maybe my english is too bad and i confounded turn on and off but i thought i saw exactly that in the vids.
Maybe they patched that or what ever...
If that would be the reason im very sorry for writing this article.

But in total: for me worked to TURN OFF all flames!!!!


it also would be a more comment than a hint/solution but i write this for all who are looking for that problem.

This trophy is awarded for completing the first of the three optional puzzles present in the game. During the first half of Chapter 2 there will be lit torches placed about and five of them will turn off and on when looked at. You will need to simultaneously turn on all 5 of them to head through a door.

  • The first is directly up the stairs beside the block that you pull out by looking at it and walking backwards.
  • The second and third are on either side of the door you go through immediately after the first torch.
  • The fourth is down a long empty area to the left of the door that opens when you move forward towards it.
  • The fifth is to the left around the corner after the second door that opens when you look at it and walk backwards.


After you have them all activated head back up the large flight of stairs without accidentally looking at any of them again to deactivate them. The door there at the top of the stairs will now be open and you can head through it.

This next part of the puzzles involves raising the platform in front of you while jumping while looking at the eye then looking away as you fall, as it raises and lowers based on your vertical motion when you look at it. If it is too high for you to jump on at the start, look down from it and jump then look at the eye as you fall to lower it. If you have trouble looking away from the eye fast enough you can increase the control sensitivity in the options menu. Once you have the platform at the highest part head forward to the wall in front of you to see a large stone object pop out of the ground to earn the trophy.

In the second chapter you need to extinguish and light all the torches, after which the closed door will open.
In the room you will have to raise the platform to the top.
To do this, look straight into the eye, jump up and sharply move the right stick to the right.
To release the platform, look at the floor, jump and move the right stick up.
Here is my full video guide with this trophy
