Are you ready to unravel the ultimate mystery in Resident Evil Requiem? Brace yourself, because the 'Final Puzzle' is a doozy! It's a challenge that will leave even the most seasoned puzzle solvers scratching their heads.
The Final Puzzle is a complex web of clues and steps, so intricate that many have tried and failed to crack it. It's a true test of your observational skills and problem-solving prowess.
But here's where it gets controversial... Some believe that the puzzle can only be solved in New Game Plus, adding an extra layer of difficulty. Are you up for the challenge?
Let's dive into the clues and see if we can piece together this enigmatic puzzle.
Final Puzzle Explained:
The Final Puzzle is one of the many challenges in Resident Evil Requiem's 'Challenges' menu. Completing it earns you a hefty 20,000 CP, but the real challenge lies in deciphering the cryptic clue: "Let the sweet pair hear the voice."
Who is this "sweet pair"? Is it Grace and Leon, the game's central characters? Or could it be Emily and The Girl? Perhaps it refers to the two singers featured in Rhodes Hill... As for the "voice," we're still in the dark.
Final Puzzle Clues:
Clue #1: The Girl's Severed Hand
After escaping the basement of Rhodes Hill Care Center, you inadvertently sever The Girl's hand with the elevator. Yes, it's gruesome, but you can actually pick up the severed hand and keep it in your inventory. When you place it in a Laser Microscope, a minor puzzle reveals a code: 'GGC AAG AUA ACG UGU CAU'. What does this code mean? We're not sure yet, but it's a crucial piece of the puzzle.
Clue #2: Lead Researcher's Puzzle Box
After opening the Lead Researcher's Puzzle Box and scanning the severed hand, you can input another code. We suspect that this code from the hand might translate into symbols representing the Sun, Moon, and Stars. Could this be the key to unlocking the puzzle?
Clue #3: Laser Microscope Label
On the side of the Laser Microscope machine in the Blood Lab, you'll find a label that reads 'G = 150000000'. IGN suggests that this might correlate with the Sun, as it is 150 million miles away from Earth. So, G could represent the Sun.
Clue #4: Hourglass
When escaping Rhodes Hill Care Center, you'll find an hourglass in the VIP Suite. Draining the hourglass reveals a code: 'U = 380,000'. Coincidentally, the Moon is 380,000 kilometers away from Earth. Could U represent the Moon?
Clue #5: Grace Ashcroft Blood Analysis Report
In the facility beneath the Helipad, you'll find a document titled 'Grace Ashcroft Blood Analysis Report'. It reveals that 'C = 4.2 ly', which just so happens to be the distance to the closest star from Earth. So, C could represent the Star.
Clue #6: Toy Uncle Bobblehead
While playing as Leon, you'll find a Toy Uncle Bobblehead in a sports court. If you kick it through the basketball hoop, you'll receive a message: "There's no time for playing around." In Kendo's Gun Shop, you'll find the torso of the bobblehead, which tells you to "Just ignore A." This leads us to believe that we should remove the letter 'A' from the severed hand code, giving us 'GGC GUC GUG UCU'.
Clue #7: Returning to the Puzzle Box
In a second playthrough, you can return to the Puzzle Box and input the code translated into Sun, Moon, and Star symbols. The code is: Sun, Sun, Star, Sun, Moon, Star, Sun, Moon, Sun, Moon, Star, Moon. When you do this, you hear childlike laughter.
Final Puzzle Conclusions:
While we've cracked the code of the severed hand, we're still not done. The puzzle remains unsolved, and the achievement remains elusive. Here are some thoughts and potential leads:
- Could the laughter be a ruse, and there's another way to crack the code?
- Are there additional steps or items needed after the laughter from the Puzzle Box?
- Some suspect that the Marie's Doll item is crucial, but it's not yet clear how to obtain it.
- One player claims to have picked up the Marie's Doll item and taken it to the Puzzle Box on NG+, but this needs further verification.
This puzzle bears similarities to one in the Resident Evil 7: Biohazard demo, which adds an intriguing twist. With the collective efforts of reviewers, guide writers, and the Resident Evil community, we hope to finally solve this enigma.
