What the HELL am I supposed to do here? Game doesn't tell me, neither does the manual. It just gives me X Y B columns with a bunch of bricks, and pressing the buttons makes the blocks turn from red to blue and vice versa. Way to throw me in a dead-end here Bioware!

Oh for heaven's sake, it's probably the easiest 'mental puzzle' in existence! Fair enough if you didn't understand what you had to do, but anybody who posts and asks *how* you do it needs eliminating for the good of the gene pool
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it was the former...
I didn't realize it was the tower of hanoi; it's actually very simple and I did it within seconds once I realized it. It's just that the game really needs to tell you what you're supposed to do, instead of throwing you a couple of columns and leaving you to your business. Not everyone has heard of or done tower of hanoi.
The first time on this puzzle I had no real idea what was going on. I was also a tad concerned that the flashing and strobing was going to bring on an epileptic fit.
After some time and by pure chance I completed it, and carried on. Of course I forgot to save the game and got thoroughly killed a few minutes later.It was five minutes in to the second attempt of mindless button bashing that I realised what was going on and it was very easy to solve.
In my opinion however silly block shifting puzzles really have no place in a RPG, or is this some traditional console thing?
It was done in Knights of the Old Republic, albeit with a slight twist on it, something to do with size as well as color. It's been ages since I did it. Bioware likes to throw in traditional puzzles for hacking or unlocking situations.
