Resident Evil Requiem: Complete Guide to the Lead Researcher’s Office Puzzle Box Combinations
As you delve further into the Rhodes Hill Care Center in Resident Evil Requiem, your quest for escape items directs you to the Lead Researcher’s Office. Here, you will encounter yet another locked Puzzle Box, reminiscent of the one found in the Chairman’s Office, but this box offers a crucial item necessary for your progression.
Unlike the Chairman’s puzzle box, however, this one requires an initial step to unlock. You will need a specific item to trigger the box, as it is secured with a physical lock.
Unlocking the Puzzle Box
For those in a rush, the correct combination for the Puzzle Box is: Star – Sun – Moon – Sun
Obtaining the Corrosive
The Corrosive is essential to dissolve the Puzzle Box’s lock.
Before addressing the combination, take note that the Puzzle Box is secured with a sturdy padlock. Unfortunately, Grace’s tools will not help you here; instead, you must locate the Corrosive, which can be found in the Conference Room to safely dissolve the lock.
Finding the Combination
These hints scattered about the environment will unveil vital pieces of the Puzzle Box’s combination.
Rewards for Your Efforts
Upon successfully unlocking the Puzzle Box, you will be rewarded with two significant items:
Sun Quartz: This is the second of three essential items required for your escape from the Rhodes Hill Care Center.
Organ Transport Box Note: A crucial note containing guidance on unlocking the organ transport box in the facility’s Garage. The artificial organ within is vital for resolving a later puzzle.
With these items, you’re one step closer to unraveling the mysteries of Rhodes Hill Care Center.
