The Right Button (First Step? in the UK version) is a puzzle in Professor Layton and the Unwound Future. The puzzle must be solved in order to progress the story.

Puzzle

US Version

This cell door will open if you simply press the right button. Here's how to find it:

Think of the buttons as squares on a grid. From wherever you start, move from one square to another in the direction dictated by each symbol. A star means go left, a moon means go right, a sun means go down, and a drop of water means go up.

There's only one button you can start from and reach all of the others by following the rules listed above. Push that button, and then tap Submit!

UK Version

In order to open the cage, you'll need to decide which button to push.
The rules are simple. Think of the buttons as squares. Each symbol indicates a direction and you proceed from square to square following these directions:
Star = left
Moon = right
Sun = down
Water = up
There is one square you can start from which allows you to pass through every square exactly once. Touch that square.

Hints

Solution

Incorrect

Too bad!

Are you sure you didn't make a mistake somewhere along the way?

Correct

US Version

Correct!

Once you realize that all the squares are leading you to the same end point, the start is easy to figure out.

UK Version

Well done!

Apart from the last square itself, all squares form a single path leading to the last square. Once you realise this, it's easy to find the starting square.
