Silent Hill 2 Hints

What do I do with this music machine in the lobby?

  • 1 of 6: It has three indentations with three inscriptions on them.
  • 2 of 6: You've probably figured out that you have to find the three things to go in the indentations. But what kinds of things might they be?
  • 3 of 6: They're smaller versions of the larger.
  • 4 of 6: They're little music boxes, each one named after a different fairy tale heroine.
  • 5 of 6: One is outside, one is on the first floor, and one is on the second floor.
  • 6 of 6: When all three boxes are in place, play the machine to get the key to the third-floor stairwell.
