Go back to the globe from step one and operate it so it does not show N 90 and E 30 anymore! This will raise the ladder and free the White Queen.How do you release the White Queen from the ladder prison she is in? It is obvious that the last step is to push the queen in between the two knights. You should see the White Queen, but she is behind the ladder you just used to climb.Rotate them until the wings fully expand and red light shins on the knights bellow. There are levers you can use to operate the wings of the flying machine on the ceiling. Now use the ladder bellow the shield to climb to the mezzanine above and go all the way to the other side.Also, make sure they are facing the shiled that was brightly lit by your globe tempering. Move the chess pieces in such a fashion that the two knights holding a shield are in the corner of the inside square on the floor.Go to the big globe and rotate its two cranks until the dial in the middle shows North 30 and East 90.It is rather obvious that you need to move the chess piece like figures that resemble knights holding shields into the corners of the inside square on the floor. Finally, there’s a painting on the wall depicting a game containing something similar to chess pieces with two knights standing on the corners of the inside square and a white queen standing between them. There is also a bit cryptic clue saying N 30, E 90. The clues given tell us that the two knights need to stand on each side of the queen. You will need to interact with the chess pieces, big globe and the Leonardo da Vinci like flying machine on the ceiling. They all derive from the child painting called White Queen Mystery and the elements you can interact with in the main Croft Manor museum room. There are five steps to solving this puzzle. To prevent you from spending too much time pondering which chess piece goes where and how to release the White Queen from her ladder prison here’s a short guide. One of them tells of the White Queen Mystery and as soon as you enter the main house you will see that the solution lies within. You play as young Lara, exploring the Croft Manor, and you pick up various documents and clues along the way. Tomb Rider games do not lack in puzzles and you should be used to solving them by now, but this one, for some reason, had me stumped for a while. Fairly early in Shadow of the Tomb Raider you will play as young Lara in Croft Manor and face one of the harder puzzles in the game called the White Queen Mystery.
