The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Sibatijak Shrine Puzzle, Alignment, might surprise you at first. As soon as you enter, you’ll see a tall tower with several moving sections. Here’s our guide to help you complete the Sibatijak Shrine’s Alignment puzzle in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Sibatijak Shrine can be found in the Akkala region, basically just north of the foreboding Death Mountain. If you’re doing the Eldin Regional Phenomena main quest, then you should come across the Sitsum Shrine at the summit. You can tag that as a fast travel point, then glide further north to reach Sibatijak Shrine.
As for the Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Alignment puzzle in the Sibatijak Shrine, it involves a tall tower with multiple rotating sections. Here’s what you need to know:

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has a lot of really cool new abilities, but some players can’t help but miss one particular one from Breath of the Wild.

One of the coolest surprises in Breath of the Wild for me was that Link’s abilities weren’t just limited to the four he can use thanks to the Sheikah Slate you get at the beginning of the game. As you complete each dungeon, you unlock powers related to the former champions, each with their own unique uses. The same is true of Tears of the Kingdom, only now you get a little spirit version of the new champions walking around with you, and interacting with them lets you use their powers. But even still, with all of Link’s new ways to get around Hyrule, a number of players can’t help but miss one Breath of the Wild power in particular: Revali’s Gale.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has a lot of changes from Breath of the Wild, and it looks like the biggest for some players is the difficulty.
When I first played Breath of the Wild back in 2017, I was surprised at how difficult the early game was. The weapon degradation system meant I always had to keep an eye on what I’m fighting with, enemies could do some pretty big hits, and obviously guardians were a nightmare to deal with. So colour me surprised when Tears of the Kingdom felt even harder than the first game, a feeling that a lot of other players seem to be sharing.
Players over on the Zelda subreddit are discussing their feelings on the game’s difficulty, with the user that started the thread opening with, “Who else loves the fact that this game is way harder than [Breath of the Wild]?” While I neither love nor hate how the game is harder, a number of players are definitely finding it more challenging than the first game.
The map in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a lot bigger than you might expect, and players have noticed something interesting about its geography.

The big selling point for Tears of the Kingdom has obviously been all those floating sky islands way above Hyrule. Why wouldn’t they be, they’re pretty magical right? But it seems that the game was harbouring a massive secret – there is an entire underground area that is pretty much the entire size of Hyrule itself. It’s a pretty ridiculous secret that Nintendo somehow managed to keep, and really shows why the game took as long as it did (and makes it even more of a technological marvel). Interestingly, though, it seems that Hyrule’s depths mirror their above ground counterparts.
