How To Solve The Music Box Puzzle In Silent Hill 2 Remake

With the three Figurines in your possession, head back to the Music Box in the Lobby and open it using the Ornamental Key. This will reveal three slots where you can put the Figurines and four plates to move. You have to rotate all the plates so that the lines match the Figurine and the exit way next to the plate. Once that is done, press the button on the bottom right to go to the next step of the puzzle. In this section, you must turn the keys in the correct order so that the Figurines can enter the small compartments. Here is how to solve it:

  • Turn the first Key 7 times.
  • Turn the second Key 5 times.
  • Turn the third Key one time.

After finishing the puzzle, you will get the 3F Corridor Key, which allows you to reach Room 312, where you can watch the Video Tape.
