You’ll discover this creepy elevator on the second floor in Brookhaven Hospital, after finishing a different puzzle; then you get into that creepy elevator ride; making the entire experience more exciting and unpredictable for those anticipating the upcoming challenges! You can't immediately solve the puzzle here:  those questions require specific solutions. It gets far more intense once those answers must then be entered into a specific Decorative Box found on the first floor – you need to revisit that earlier hospital location and then interact with it again. And yes, those consequences matter— wrong answers cause damage! The entire experience creates unique puzzles, utilizing both gameplay mechanics and storyline elements together to produce a high level of unexpected and immersive experiences, generating something unique.

Note that difficulty affects Puzzle and combat.  We use Standard here, yet some alterations would exist elsewhere.  You can bypass the puzzle, however;  but doing the puzzle brings worthwhile Rewards; so that is why solving the puzzle is worthwhile.

Successfully solve this creepy puzzle and you receive some cool stuff! The original Silent Hill 2 puzzle used this code (3-1-3), demonstrating that solving that puzzle in the past will provide absolutely zero benefit, emphasizing that some prior information only creates difficulty, not necessarily benefit. There's an added complexity added with that penalty added in for players attempting this and this penalty greatly raises stakes.  Those remake changes were actually very welcome and those who only relied on prior information had that learning moment which truly helped increase that tense, unexpected experience.
