Bolty, controls and circuit-state primer

The opening statue supplies trial Bolty. The Aniimo Index lists Bolty’s element as electric and role as BREAK; this guide renders that element as Lightning. The room tutorial reads: Where current flows, stone turns, and the way opens.

Route, step by step

The Sanctum is one circuit read from east to west and then north: close the opening span, take Bolty, charge the two Ancient Rechargeable Batteries, feed both junctions and open the large door. Two junctions pass current only when two feeds arrive at once, which is why the entrance half has to stay live while you work the west wall.

  1. 1Drop into the circuit hallRoom 0

    You arrive on the entrance pad at the south-east corner of the hall. Step forward and the Sanctum prints its Grab card, which is the only control lesson this room gives you: aim, Grab, Drop, Toss.

  2. 2Trace the opening feed westRoom 0

    A three-port charging plate stands in the corner with two round batteries already seated. The fixed line leaves it west, passes the first cylindrical conductor on the wall and then stops dead at a break in the floor.

  3. 3Close the opening spanRoom 0

    Two blue floor terminals face each other across the break. Seat the large wooden puzzle crate on one and Manipulate the maze-faced cube onto the other, then watch the fixed line turn gold along its whole length.

  4. 4Chest 1: the standard chest by the east wallOptionalChest 1Room 0

    A standard chest sits against the wall a few paces north of the charging plate, beside a small wooden crate. Open it now and the counter reads one of three before you ever leave this room.

  5. 5Walk through the first cyan barsRoom 1

    With the span closed the lamp over the barred doorway lights and the ancient mechanism gate lifts. The lamp answers to the pair of wall conductors above it, so if the bars ever drop again, walk the feed back east.

  6. 6Try On trial Bolty at the statueRoom 1

    The statue behind the bars hands you trial Bolty. The card that follows is the one rule the rest of the Sanctum runs on: the skill charges batteries and powers conductive objects, and both wet surfaces and metal carry current.

  7. 7Ride the short platform over the first dropRoom 2

    West of the statue a short platform shuttles across a shaft, carrying a conductor piece with it. Ride it rather than jumping the gap, because the fall here kills outright and puts you back at the entrance.

  8. 8Charge the first rechargeable batteryRoom 2

    A one-port plate on the ledge holds an Ancient Rechargeable Battery. Twine with Bolty, use the displayed BREAK action beside it and keep going until the line leaving the plate holds gold, because a rechargeable will not run on its own.

  9. 9Take the long platform down to the circuit floorRoom 2

    From the ledge, board the long platform and let it carry you west and down to the main circuit floor. The pit it crosses is another lethal drop, so stay on the deck until it settles.

  10. 10Charge the second rechargeable batteryRoom 3

    A second one-port plate stands on the circuit floor with the other Ancient Rechargeable Battery in it. Charge it the same way; its feed runs west toward a pair of blue terminals set into the floor.

  11. 11Soak the Wet Wooden Chest and seat itRoom 3

    The large wooden crate lying between those two terminals will not carry current while it is dry. Submerge it until the wet and lightning marks show, then Manipulate it back and Drop it centred between the terminals.

  12. 12Check the first junction has both feedsRoom 3

    A few paces further west the line meets a junction that passes nothing on unless two feeds arrive at once. The second one comes along the wall from the entrance half, so both halves of the Sanctum have to be live at the same moment.

  13. 13Set a maze cube on the empty adsorption pointRoom 3

    North along the west wall the line breaks again at an empty adsorption point. Carry the nearest maze-faced cube onto it and the whole wall run lights, which is the spine everything north of here draws from.

  14. 14Open the narrow gate and bank the checkpointRoom 4

    The lamp above the narrow gate lights with the wall run and the gate slides open. Step through and the Sanctum unlocks its only interior respawn point, so cross that threshold before you attempt anything risky.

  15. 15Chest 2: the basic chest on the shelfOptionalChest 2Room 4

    A basic chest sits on a shelf well above the floor on the east side of this chamber. Push a maze-faced cube under it and climb, open it and check the counter has reached two of three.

  16. 16Bridge the side span to open the second barsRoom 5

    A branch leaves the wall run east and stops at another facing pair of terminals. Drop the second maze-faced cube across it, and the riser beyond lights its lamp so the ancient mechanism gate north of it opens.

  17. 17Seat the round component beside the liftRoom 6

    Past the bars a black-and-gold round component lies loose on the floor next to a one-port plate. Set it in the plate and the riser behind it feeds the lift; if that side stays dark, the small wooden crate beside the terminal pair in the same feed is the only loose piece in reach.

  18. 18Chest 3: ride the lift to the premium chestOptionalChest 3Room 6

    The lift carries you up to the premium chest, the richest of the three. Open it and confirm three of three before you move the round component again, because nothing here reopens after the Terminus.

  19. 19Carry the round component to its next pedestalRoom 7

    North of the lift room an empty one-port plate waits on the floor. Seat the same round component in it, then close the terminal pair a few paces east so the feed can carry on toward the tall hall.

  20. 20Feed the second junction and open the large doorRoom 7

    High on the pillar a second junction takes the overhead run from the west wall and the floor line from the pedestal. When both hold gold the lamp under it lights and the large door swings open.

  21. 21Cross the east corridorRoom 8

    Beyond the door the floor drops away and a long platform ferries you east above the void, carrying its own conductor along the lower line. Stay on it until it stops moving.

  22. 22Power the last conductor and use the TerminusRoom 8

    One short cylindrical conductor stands on the far wall past the corridor. Use BREAK beside it until the wall feed holds gold, then interact with the suspended square Sanctum Terminus to restore the Vein and clear the run.

The whole circuit on one plan. Markers light for the step you are reading, and the dashed line is the walk from the entrance pad to the Terminus.
A dark lamp closes its gate again: All four cyan gates watch a lamp rather than a one-time flag, so a feed that goes dark shuts the gate it opened. If a doorway closes behind you, walk the feed back to the last plate or terminal pair you filled instead of hunting for a new puzzle.
04

Checkpoints and hazards

Electric Flow gives you one interior checkpoint, and it sits about half way along the route, through the narrow gate past the wall run. Everything before that threshold respawns you back at the entrance pad, so cross it before you attempt anything risky.

  • The only checkpoint unlocks as you step through the narrow gate the wall run opens, just before the shelf chest.
  • Four lethal drops cut the room: the shaft the short platform crosses west of the statue, the pit under the long platform down to the circuit floor, the void under the east corridor and the low floor beneath it. All four kill outright rather than dropping you a level.
  • Ride the platforms, do not jump the gaps. Each of the four moving platforms spans one of those drops. Stay on the deck until it stops moving.
  • Nothing here is timed. No seal in this Sanctum runs on a clock, so read each feed before you carry anything.
05

Opening objects and chest 1

The large wooden puzzle crate is already present in the opening room at 0/3. It is a separate puzzle object, not chest 1 and not an emptied shell left by that chest. Put the crate on one blue floor node and center/Drop the maze-faced cube on the other. You can open the separate chest before or after those placements; finish both placements and confirm 1/3 before trial Bolty.

Top: the separate large wooden puzzle crate stays movable while the chest reward text is up. Bottom: the crate is accepted on its first node, that branch is gold and the counter reads 1/3. The maze cube still needs its own node.

Complete the maze-cube node during the opening route: center the cube over the other blue floor node and use Drop. Distance and the Drop/Throw controls are the only inputs here; there is no rotation control.

Cube orientation does not matter: There is no rotation control and no required maze-face direction. If a cube does nothing, check that its base is centered on the blue node and that you used Drop rather than Throw.
06

Conductors, climbing cube and chest 2

After claiming trial Bolty, Twine and use the displayed BREAK action beside the marked cylindrical conductors. Power the whole sequence before you go for chest 2, and use the fixed line turning gold as the confirmation.

Use the room-labelled BREAK interaction beside the short conductor. The gold fixed line is the powered state.

Untwine and move the nearby maze-faced cube under the chest ledge. Climb the cube, open the chest and confirm 2/3. Only after the chest is collected do you move that same cube to the blue floor node that opens the cyan-trimmed exit.

Use the cube as a climbing step first. Watch the counter reach 2/3, then socket that same cube.
Chest 2 and the exit node are two sequential uses: The cube is not already seated when you collect chest 2. The order is climb step → chest 2/3 → carry the same cube → center and Drop on the exit node. Beyond that cyan exit, a different maze cube goes on the next blue node; those bars open into the water room.
07

Wet Wooden Chest conductor

In the shallow-water room, first confirm the upstream fixed circuit is already gold. Submerge the Wet Wooden Chest. When the droplet and lightning indicators appear, use Pathfinder Manipulate to carry the still-wet chest to the downstream blue node and Drop it there to open the bars.

Do not strike the chest with Bolty: Submerging it is what makes it conduct. The room sequence is upstream feed gold → submerge the wooden chest → wet and lightning indicators appear → carry it with Manipulate → Drop it on the downstream blue node.

A wet wooden chest conducts current. Here that means water first, then the carry: the object has to still be wet when it reaches the downstream node.

08

Round component, chest 3 and the later cube gate

After the wet-conductor gate, use Manipulate on the black-and-gold round component and place it on the first small blue node beside the lift. That placement opens no door: it feeds the lift, and the lift is the only way up to the premium chest on the shelf above it. Ride up, open the chest and confirm the objective counter reaches 3/3 before moving the component again.

The 3/3 counter confirms the third chest, the premium one on the lift shelf. The large maze-faced cube belongs to a later gate, not to this chest.

Move the same round component onward to its next round pedestal. In the following room, manipulate the large maze-faced cube onto the blue node; a cyan-trimmed doorway confirms that later gate is open. These are two sequential mechanisms, so do not fold the cube into chest 3.

09

Final conductor, Sanctum Terminus and rewards

Beyond the later cube gate, Twine with Bolty and use BREAK beside the one short cylindrical conductor on the blue-violet floor panel. Continue until the fixed wall feed holds gold. The wall ring behind it is part of the circuit backdrop: it is not a flower receiver, and there is no second final placement.

Power the single short conductor until the fixed wall feed is gold. The large cube was used at the preceding doorway, not as a second final conductor.

Approach the separate suspended square Sanctum Terminus and interact with it. The game also calls this device a Tesseract. It changes to a blue-white state and restores the Vein; the square device itself is not the Vein.

The first clear pays once: Clearing Electric Flow for the first time pays Lumin Amber: Breezy Plains ×1 and 500 EXP, lights this room’s Vein node and counts toward the Sanctum Delver badges at 3, 5, 10 and 15 clears. Later clears pay nothing beyond the optional chests.

Three-chest ledger

The three chests come in route order: the standard one in the opening room, the basic one on the shelf past the narrow gate, and the premium one at the top of the lift. The ledger lists each with its tier and its drop list, and closes on the first clear.

11

Troubleshooting

A cube does nothing on its node: Untwine, lift it again, center the base over the blue node and use Drop, not Throw. Then check the fixed feed line and the linked doorway. There is no required cube face or approach direction.
The water-room route stays closed: Check the causal order: upstream fixed feed gold, Wet Wooden Chest submerged, droplet and lightning indicators present, then carry it with Manipulate and Drop it on the downstream blue node. Do not add a Bolty strike just because the object carries a lightning indicator.
The counter still reads 2/3: While you are still in the round-component section, return that same component to the plate beside the lift, ride up and take the premium chest on the shelf before moving the component onward. Do not use the Terminus until the counter reads 3/3.

Frequently asked

Where is Electric Flow?

It is a solo Blitzwood Sanctum. Open the exact atlas pin. AniimoVerse plots it at 1873, 2101 on the atlas.

Do the maze-faced cubes need a specific orientation?

No. Center the cube over the node and use Drop. Read the fixed feed line and the linked doorway for confirmation.

Should Bolty strike the Wet Wooden Chest?

No. With the upstream fixed line already gold, submerge the Wet Wooden Chest until its wet and lightning indicators appear, then carry it with Manipulate and Drop it on the downstream blue node.

What is the final square object in Electric Flow?

It is the Sanctum Terminus, also called a Tesseract. Power the preceding single short conductor, then interact with the separate Terminus to restore the Vein. That first clear pays one Lumin Amber: Breezy Plains and 500 EXP.
