Early-Game FAQ
I can’t open the Journal. Do I have everything I need?
The journal is a late-game item. To open it, you need a note from behind the Gun Door. This note has 5 dates on it. Use another note from earlier in the game to figure out the moon patterns.
Can I solve the Astronomical clock?
Behind the gun door is a note with four dates that mention “signs.” With that note, you can solve the clock. You just have to place the clock’s tick on the signs for their respective year. Pretty straightforward.
Can I open the 9 boxes?
Each box is opened by understanding the patterns in its room. Get the key for each room from the Quiz maze. Unlock the Quiz maze door by the Astronomical Clock using a Suite key from the magician.
Does the Piano puzzle need another note or outside knowledge?
No, everything is there. Count the musical notes in each block to make progress.
How do I open the statue with a 3×3 grid and letters?
The letters spell a 5-letter character name. Each letter is used once.
I’m stuck on the Supercomputer!
Login: Match the 5 red runes on the magician posters to the messages in the computer games. The runes spell LORELEI.
Password: Go through the Quiz maze to reach a twisted hotel. Find a 3×3 screen with red and white squares. The floor is also a 3×3 grid. The sign post says which sigil you’re looking at. If your character is in a red square on the screen, shade that spot on the grid. Do this for each sigil to get the password shapes.
Date Entry: Get keywords from the boxes to whisper to the old woman. Her memories are encoded dates. Figure out which of the 3 possible dates each memory refers to. Count edges, intersections, or find hidden numbers.
I’m stuck on the box puzzles!
Each room has the numbers 0-9 that match elements in the room. The room layout matches the puzzle box. Figure out which button is which number. Open the box with the date from the door (like “1982”).
Misc. Questions and Answers
How to get coffee
- You need a key shaped like a C.
- You’ll need to open a door on the top-right side on the 1st floor.
How to open safe with different shaped buttons?
The answer is related to the area of the buttons. if a single square is 1, what number can be the other shapes translated into?
The clock is in the basement and the pool table, but I am unable to wind it. Please help.
Take a look at the “Tick Tock” book.
Try it again, maybe? It appears that you are close. If that doesn’t work and you’ve already spoken to the man in the suit in that room, you probably have an idea in your head as to what the right input is.
Done! Now the astrology clock PLS
It’s actually one of the later puzzles, the astrology clock. First things first, you have to open the revolver door. If you’re still early in the game, you might want to ignore it for the time being.
Thank you, but even though I have 80%, I’m not sure how to open the Revolver door.
One last hint: Have you figured out every puzzle in the backyard?
I don’t think so
Piano puzzle
Can you solve piano puzzle without side clues or you need some specific clue to solve it?
You should be able to follow the music notes on the piano keys with the assistance of the two red-colored dates. To solve it, you don’t need any earlier hints or objects.
WORKING CODE: Press the numbered keys that correspond to the number of notes in each “block” of the sheet.
Sorry for the dumb question! I’m still lost. Does this mean I need to play 1963 and 2014 versions of the whole song? Do I play the sheet music once but continue past 2014? I can’t seem to get it right.
Total the number of notes in every single “box.” For instance, there are two notes in a single box. That means you are going to press the ‘2’ key on the piano. In the event that a box contains no notes, you will press the piano key designated ‘0’. Keep playing until you reach the thirteenth note. With this one, it’s very easy to get picky, particularly if you’re into music. 😛
I seem to be unable to use the two keys I currently have, the club and the spade. The map appears to show that the club is accessible outside, but there isn’t a door leading to it. The others are locked behind doors that I am unable to open.
For further information:
I’ve practiced the piano, magician, and other things, but I’m not sure where to go from here. At 58.3%, I believe I have completed every significant puzzle with a somewhat obvious solution. Two of the four statues in the backyard are unlocked by me.
I’m unable to operate the astrological clock, journal, or boxes/signs area. I got the red eye and all nine scripts. I have no idea what to do next.
Did you get the lever from the place where the woman fell down? You should use that to get a key from the chandelier on floor 2

That’s a reference to the man in room 1963, whom you can contact at milestones to obtain additional conversation.
