Honkai: Star Rail is celebrated for its engaging puzzles and enigmatic challenges. With each new update, fresh mysteries emerge, including the latest set of three Dream Ticker puzzles at Penacony Paperfold University College. You’ll need to do some sleuthing to uncover all three, but the effort is well worth it as they offer enticing rewards. Each Dream Ticker is linked to a treasure chest, so expect to earn crafting materials, including Stellar Jade, as you work to solve the puzzles.
By completing all three Dream Ticker puzzles in Penacony Paperfold University College, you’ll also unlock the “Sunday Night Live” trophy. After finishing these puzzles, you can revisit the Dream Tickers for a hidden achievement. A little searching is required, but these puzzles won’t take too long to accomplish.
Unamused Ticker Solution
Collect All Three Silver Gears
To solve the “Unamused Ticker” puzzle, you need to create a path for Clockie to gather all four gears. Once you secure the three silver gears, you complete the puzzle by collecting the golden gear last. Here is how to get each gear:
Silver Gear One
- Rotate the orange L-shaped block twice to create an upward path.
- Shift the mirror to the left, extending the orange path to reach the top-left silver gear.
Silver Gear Two
- Turn the orange block three times to form a path to the left.
- Position the yellow T-block to finalize the path.
Silver Gear Three
- Lift the T-block up to connect with the mirror.
- Spin the blue and yellow L-block three times to create a forward path.
- Rotate the orange block three times, aligning it in the mirror to direct an upward path to the gear.
- Move the Z-shaped yellow block over to complete the route.
The Golden Gear
- Rotate the blue and yellow block three times.
- Adjust the mirror to the right.
- Slide the yellow block to the right, enabling Clockie to access the gold gear.
If you’d prefer not to tackle the puzzle, you can instruct this Dream Ticker to self-repair. You can check out how to do this in a video by BLACK IMPACT.
Inaccurate Ticker Solution
Customizable Difficulty: Choose Your Challenge
This Dream Ticker puzzle offers something unique: it lets you select your difficulty level. You have three choices:
- “The level where a single press clears the stage!”
- “Normal difficulty works for me.”
- “Give me a genuine challenge!”
Each choice corresponds to a different difficulty, so you can select based on your preference; the rewards remain the same regardless of your selection. If you’re a seasoned puzzle solver, opt for the higher difficulty, but if you’re just looking to complete the task, feel free to go for the simpler option.
“The level where a single press clears the stage!”
This level may require more than one click, but it’s pretty close:
- Shift the mirror all the way down toward Clockie.
- Move the middle yellow block down so it reflects in the mirror, creating a path to the golden gear.
“Just normal will do.”
The normal difficulty involves a few more steps but shouldn’t take long:
- Shift the mirror most of the way left to reflect the orange L-shaped block.
- Rotate the orange block once so that its longer side faces the mirror.
- Move the yellow block down, forming a connection between the two orange blocks to guide Clockie to the silver gear.
- Raise the yellow blocks to make contact with the platform holding the golden gear.
- Rotate the blue L-shaped block once to connect the black platform to the yellow block, allowing Clockie to reach the golden gear.
“Show me a real puzzle!”
- Position the mirror fully toward Clockie.
- Move the nearby yellow block down onto Clockie’s platform.
- Rotate the orange L-shaped block twice, finalizing the route to the first silver gear.
- Shift the middle yellow block away, then rotate the orange block back twice, pointing its long side toward the mirror.
- Move the yellow block back down, completing the route to the second silver gear.
- Lift the middle yellow block up towards the next gear.
- Spin the blue block twice to create a path toward the third silver gear.
- Rotate the orange L-shaped block three times.
- Rotate the blue L-shaped block once.
- Raise the bottom yellow block to connect with the orange block, forming the final path to the golden gear.

- Move the middle T-shaped yellow block to connect Clockie and the orange blocks, creating a path to the gear.
Top Left Gold Gear
- Rotate the blue block in the top left so it faces the top left gold gear.
- Turn the orange L-shaped block above Clockie to face the platform he’s on.
- Place the yellow Z-shaped block over to link the orange and yellow blocks, forming the route to the gear.
Bottom Right Gold Gear
- Shift the straight yellow block at the bottom all the way to the right.
- Rotate the small orange L-shaped block twice.
