What’s the point of the glass cases

the-talos-principle

Some of the sigils correspond to glass cases containing various items, which sink into the ground when completed. However, since activating a few of them, I haven't noticed any sort of change. What are they for?

Best Answer

After activating one, you gain the ability to use that item in puzzles. Not all items are in all puzzles, though - the signboard next to the puzzle-entrance tells you which items need to be unlocked to do that puzzle.
