How to Solve Midnight Man Puzzle (Gatorman Village)?

It is vital for you to first make sure to understand the layout of the Gatorman Village. Moreover, there are 3 rooms in total: 1 room is on the left with the floating head, the other 1 room is in the middle (or “bottom”), and the other 1 is on the right where the group of Gatormen (and 1 Sigma gatormale) are worshiping the obelisk (AKA the portal to the shadow realm).

Next, try to understand how the hands work. The left-hand controls where the portal to the shadow realm and the normal world appear. So, when it points left, the portal will be shown in the left room; pointing down means it seems in the middle room, and right means it appears in the right room.

Furthermore, the right hand controls which room will appear in the shadow realm, as only 1 of the three rooms in the Village will be able to exist at a time in the shadow realm. Only the right room will exist in the shadow realm if pointing right. If pointing down, only the middle room will exist; if pointing left, only the left room will exist.
