How to solve the Cabinet Puzzle in Inscryption

So many puzzles!

In Inscryption, the player finds themselves trapped within a cabin with a mysterious figure. The player will play card battles that will determine their fate. Along the way, they will collect and earn more cards which they can use to tip the scales—literally. But other things can give the player an edge and they can be found by exploring the cabin.

One of these is the mysterious cabinet on the far side of the room. You will need to find a key to unlock, but once you do, there will be four puzzles to complete. Each puzzle requires you to deal a certain amount of damage by moving the pieces. They can only be moved up and down and some pieces cannot be moved. You can see how to solve all the cabinet puzzles in Inscryption below.
