AI Puzzle Help

Solve Any Puzzle Without Spoilers

Stuck on a puzzle? Sidekick AI sees your screen and understands what you're looking at. Instead of giving away the solution, it nudges you in the right direction with voice hints — like a friend who's already beaten the game whispering 'look at the thing on the left.'

How It Works

Hints, Not Spoilers

Sidekick AI gives progressive hints. First a nudge, then a clearer direction, then the solution — only if you need it. You control how much help you want.

Sees Your Puzzle

Vision AI watches your screen to understand the exact state of the puzzle. No describing what you see — the AI already knows which pieces you've placed, which switches you've flipped, which doors are locked.

Voice Guidance

Hints come through your headset as spoken suggestions. Your eyes stay on the puzzle and your hands stay on the controls. No alt-tabbing to read a wiki solution.

Works With Any Game

Environmental puzzles in Zelda, rotation puzzles in BG3, logic puzzles in Portal, exploration puzzles in Hollow Knight — Sidekick AI adapts to whatever puzzle type you're facing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the AI just tell me the answer immediately?
No. Sidekick AI is designed to preserve the puzzle-solving experience. It gives progressively more specific hints. You can ask for more help if the first hint isn't enough, or tell it to be more direct. The goal is helping you solve it yourself, not solving it for you.
How does it know what puzzle I'm looking at?
Sidekick AI uses vision AI to analyze your screen in real-time. It recognizes common puzzle elements: rotating panels, pressure plates, symbol matching, environmental clues, lock mechanisms, and more. It understands puzzle state — what you've tried, what's changed, and what's left.
What types of puzzles does it help with?
Any visual puzzle in a PC game: environmental puzzles (move objects, activate switches), rotation puzzles (align symbols), logic puzzles (sequence, patterns), navigation puzzles (find the path), and hidden object puzzles (find the interactive element). If you can see it on screen, Sidekick AI can help.
Is this better than searching for a puzzle solution online?
For preserving the experience, yes. Online solutions give you the full answer immediately, which ruins the satisfaction of solving it yourself. Sidekick AI gives you just enough to get unstuck. And you never leave the game — no alt-tabbing, no searching, no scrolling past spoilers.
When will this be available?
Sidekick AI is coming to Steam in 2026. Add it to your wishlist for early access. The free demo includes 5 minutes of daily AI coaching, including puzzle help.
