After you reach further into Chapter 2 of Plucky Squire, you’ll reach an area with the stacked books puzzle. Your objective is to cross the crevice in the ground by placing an object in it. To do that, first, head over to the left side of the area and grab the key from the elevated platform.

Once you get close to the key, the red door will block your exit. This will spawn Humpgrump’s minions near you. Take them out to unlock the red door and use the key on the blue door to the right.

Scatter the Books & Stack the Papers

After unlocking the blue door with the key, you’ll spot a sentence on the ground that says “Pages Were Scattered On The Ground.” Strike your sword at the word “Scattered” and it will dislodge from the sentence.

Now pick up the word “Scattered” and head to the center where you’ll spot another sentence that says “These Books Had Been Purposefully Stacked.” Strike at the word “Stacked” and replace it with the word “Scattered.” This will disperse the pile of stacked books in front of you. However, you have’t solved the puzzle yet.

After you’re done scattering the pile of books in the center, pick up the word “Stacked.” Now head to the area with the pages. Here, replace the word “Stacked” in the sentence that now reads “Pages Were Stacked On The Ground.” This will create a stack of pages that you can interact with.

Now all you have to do is drag the stack of pages towards the crevis located where the stacked pile of books was. Once you position the stack of pages on top of the crevis, they will fall. This will create a pathway for Jot and the gang to move to the next area.
