Genshin Impact: Watatsumi Island Face Symbols Puzzle Guide

As Genshin Impact players explore Watatsumi Island, they may encounter one of several mysterious symbols -depicting a face- scattered throughout the region. What Genshin Impact players may not realize is that the face symbols are tied to a secret treasure hunt that can be unlocked by interacting with a specific object on the island.

There are a total of eight face symbols that can be found across Watatsumi Island. Over the course of the treasure hunt, players can potentially unlock four common chests, one exquisite chest, and one precious chest in addition to two secret achievements.
