Season 1 Ep 3 Cannot Interact with Switch

In the section where you need to get the train started back up, I cannot interact with the 5 knob to turn it. I am unable to progress because of this. I've looked at threads on here of people that have similar issues but none of the suggested fixes that I've tried (rewinding, changing resolution, entering windowed mode, copying file to a different slot and starting from there) have worked. I really like this game and would love to continue playing it but I'm completely stuck. My cursor can reach the 5 switch but there is no circle to interact with it. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is really frustrating for me.

  • Not sure if this would work, but have you tried backing up your save, deleting the episode, reinstalling it and continuing from there?

  • I have all the episodes installed at once, but I'll back up my save and uninstall/reinstall the game to see if that does anything. How do you import your save game back into the game after you've reinstalled it?

  • How about restarting the episode on a clean save (meaning one of the filesaves gets deleted and you start on Episode 3)? When you get to the knob, if it works, then your save data is probably what's at fault, but if not, I can't help there since it could be any number of things.

  • Played the entire episode back up to the train and the bug is still there. So it must not be the save file

  • So it turns out that nothing is actually wrong with my game and I was just doing the puzzle wrong (I flipped the wrong switches). I am so sorry. I really appreciate your efforts to help me. Thank you!
