Most of the giant world of Sonic Frontiers is covered with all manner of puzzles for players to solve. From movement puzzles to Cylooping puzzles like M-024 on Kronos Island, Sonic will have to go fast in order to complete these challenges and get rings, purple coins, seeds, and other collectibles. On the second island of the game called Ares Island, players will find fan-favorite Knuckles the Echidna and a collection of some more difficult tile puzzles. One of the harder tile-walking challenges is number M-037, which is fairly far to the north in this desert location.

The Location of the Tile Puzzle M-037 in Sonic Frontiers

As stated above, this tile puzzle is located further to the north than most of the other Ares puzzles. It is located on the northernmost island of the Ares section of the Starfell Islands in Sonic Frontiers. Players will have to ride several rails, spring buttons, and bumpers to get to this location without falling into the sea.

Once there, Sonic will find that there is yet another tile-stepping puzzle to trip him up.

How to Solve Tile Puzzles in Sonic Frontiers

In order to solve M-037 and others like it, players will have to step on every lit-up square just once. They cannot go over the same tile twice; Sonic also cannot jump or step off of the platform. The starting square will glow yellow before Sonic steps onto it; players have to start on this square. These types of puzzles are found all over the maps of Sonic Frontiers' Starfall Islands.
