Need help with the 'Put these books out of order' riddle in Silent Hill 3? This guide breaks down the Bookstore Memo and helps you solve this tricky puzzle.
Alright, so you've found the Bookstore Memo in the My Bestsellers bookstore, specifically near the back door on the second floor of the Central Square Shopping Center. This is the riddle for the Hard difficulty puzzle, and it's a bit more poetic than usual. Don't worry, we'll figure it out together.
The memo itself is a bit of a philosophical poem, but the key part for the puzzle is the last stanza. It gives us the structure for the solution:
"One vengeful man
spilled blood for two;
Two youths shed tears for three;
Three witches disappeared thusly;
And only the four keys remain."
This tells us the order of the books you need to interact with. You're looking for books that represent these concepts in this specific order:
- The Vengeful Man (1): This corresponds to the book about a man seeking revenge.
- The Two Youths (2): Next, you'll need the book about two young people.
- The Three Witches (3): Following that is the book about three witches.
- The Four Keys (4): Finally, you need the book related to four keys.
So, when you interact with the books on the shelf, you'll want to select them in that sequence: the book about vengeance, then the one about two youths, then the three witches, and finally the one about four keys. Get the order right, and you'll solve the puzzle!
