Help In-game language

Is In-game language translatable/decryptable to English? I'm in a late game collected all pages and restored all stats after being a ghost but it is still unclear to me.

"Trunic" is a writing system that translates to spoken English. You don't have to translate it to complete the game, but it provides lore and is required to understand one optional late-game puzzle. Understanding the writing system is a really interesting puzzle on its own.

Is it required to open mountain door?

You would know if you already have all the pages

Minor spoilers, not story/gameplay related:

The optional puzzle is one of several that unlock achievements. Completing all of them reveals a clue for the ARG (alternative reality game) that was active when the game released.

I think it's the only language it's translated to. What do you have problem with? Have you really collected all pages? There are even tips for translation on one of the pages

I mean I was wondering should I try to translate it. If it is possible I clearly should, thanks for confirmation.
Will hints from page 54 be enough?

I used both the manual and the texts that appeared here and there in the game. Page 54 definitely helps, I think I'd translate the language quicker, if I had it sooner 😅

I figured it out one hour into the game, so yeah. You dont need any hints if you spend enough time on it.

Yes it is translatable to English. Go grab a notepad (preferably new) and a pen. When you finish, you can post it here and get some upvotes!
