The Spider-Man spectrographs aren't quite as tough as their circuit puzzle cousins, but you'll still spend a fair bit of time in the remaster pondering them for the right solution. Some are definitely easier than others, but you can expect these line-based challenges to get harder as you work your way through the main story. Peter Parker wouldn't be much of a nerd if he couldn't match a few lines after all.

The puzzles themselves are straightforward: you place segments with lines on them in order to recreate a series of patterns. Where they get harder is when you have to start making lines disappear, double them up, and overlay ever-more segments to reproduce each pattern.

Lucky for you, I've been through every Spider-Man spectrograph. Below are the solutions for those you have to solve as part of various quests, and the ten that unlock throughout the game in Octavius Labs. These are a great way to get Research Tokens, so well worth completing if you get chance. Don't forget you can cycle through our Octavius Labs gallery in order to see all ten of those spectrographs or click the corner of any image to expand it.
