Part 37 of my interactive 100% playthrough of Zero Time Dilemma on PC.

What's better than solving a room under the constant supervision of an ominous nuclear reactor, while being inside a room at -10 degrees? You only live that kind of experience one time in your life, that's for sure.

I skipped a line by accident, so I tried to atone for my sins by showing the log. Blame my mouse that sometimes double-click by itself...

Here are some explanations about the puzzles of this room:

—— The Shuffled Prism ——
This puzzle can be found inside the lower section of the locker on the right side of the room.

You have a rectangle made up of 16 square panels in front of you. Each panel can be selected and rotated, and you can of course rotate the whole shape to see the other panels. What you need to do is rotate all 16 panels so the patterns all align together. This is pretty straightforward, but if you need some help, start by aligning a corner of the rectangle. There's only one possibility to make all the corner patterns align, making your life easier afterwards to complete the rest of the puzzle. Solving this puzzle will net you two sink plugs.

—— The Greek Alphabet ——
This puzzle can be found on the monitors of the main console after powering it up.

You can see if front of you a 10X8 grid with nine blue Xs on it. On the side, there are nine Greek letters of different shape and size, all of them with a red X on them. Your goal is to make those letters fit into the grid, while also making sure all red Xs overlap with one of the blue Xs. You can also rotate the letters, but for this puzzle, you don't need to use that option.

Since there are exactly the same number of blue and red X, that means each letter can be on top of only one X. That bit of information will help you a great deal to reduce the number of possible arrangements. If a letter uses more than one blue X, then its location is incorrect. It's mostly trial and error after that. The best tip I can give you is to start with the big shapes. Since they're big, they have less possible areas they can fit, meaning they're easier to place on the grid. Don't worry about leaving empty space on the grid; as long as all the Xs are used and all letters fit correctly, your answer is correct. Completing this puzzle will power on the device on your left.

—— Rerouting Lasers ——
This puzzle can be found on the large monitor on the left side of the room after solving the Greek letters puzzle.

You have a 7X7 grid with laser emitters of four diferrent colors on the sides. Your goal is to direct those lasers to the receipter in the middle of the grid. The side each laser color should be landing on is indicated on top of the receipter. To modify the trajectory of the lasers, you have multiple mirrors scattered on the grid. You can move each column of the grid up or down until one mirror touches the edges of the grid. Only the middle column can't be moved.

This is mostly trial and error. Simply remember that each mirror can be used twice, once per side, and that each side of a mirror will redirect a laser in a different direction. Also, don't be afraid of breaking a functional laser route to try to include another laser into your solution. Solving this puzzle will start an alarm, allowing you to get to the final part of the escape.
