Silent Hill 3 Hints
Hard
1 of 31: You need a number combination to get past the door. Check the area around the door for a hint.
2 of 31: There's a message on a stretcher by the door. It suggests that there are a certain number of digits in the combination...
3 of 31: Four, to be exact.
4 of 31: There's a memo on a bulletin board near the door. Read it.
5 of 31: Notice anything about the poem? Any trends or repetitions?
6 of 31: The whole way through, it's about a face. It never deviates from the face.
7 of 31: Think about the damage done to the face. Visualize it (as unpleasant as it is). Now, think about the keypad...
8 of 31: Does the keypad, perhaps, resemble anything you've seen (or visualized) recently?
9 of 31: Like a face?
10 of 31: Imagine you're looking at a face as you stare at the keypad. Imagine you want to destroy it...as you very well may want to do.
11 of 31: Imagine you're the narrator of the hint poem. Imagine you are doing what the narrator is doing.
12 of 31: "I place my left hand on your face." Place your left hand on her "face."
13 of 31: "Then I suddenly shove my thumb deep into your eyesocket." Put your left hand into her eye. The eye that is next to your hand. Her right eye...
14 of 31: "Cinnabar-red tears stream from your crushed eye." Now there's blood streaming from her right eye. It ends up under her right eye.
15 of 31: "Biting your tongue, shredding it, biting at your lips..." Now you're destroying her mouth area.
16 of 31: "I longed, too, for your cherry-tinted cheeks." Now you're attacking her cheeks, but the right side of her face is already pretty messed up...
17 of 31: So you attack the left cheek.
18 of 31: "Your left ear, always hearing words whispered sweet as pie." The left ear is next.
19 of 31: Now, five parts of her face have been destroyed, but there are only four numbers in the combination.
20 of 31: Right eye Below the right eye Mouth Left cheek Left ear
21 of 31: Think of the five different parts. There should only be four left in the end. How is one of the parts alienated from the others?
22 of 31: All of them but one are destroyed by the same method. Examine the poem carefully.
23 of 31: All are destroyed by the attacker's mouth except...
24 of 31: The right eye, which was destroyed by a thumb. Take the right eye out and you're left with...
25 of 31: Below right eye Mouth Left cheek Left ear
26 of 31: Now you have your four parts. How could they give you four numbers on the keypad?
27 of 31: Look at the keypad carefully and consider the face...
28 of 31: Each number on the keypad could be substituted for a part of a face. They are...
29 of 31: 1 -- Right eye 2 -- Nothing...unless she has a unibrow. 3 -- Left eye 4 -- Under right eye/ear 5 -- Nose 6 -- Under left eye/ear 7 -- Right cheek 8 -- Mouth 9 -- Left cheek
30 of 31: Substitute the face parts for the numbers in order of the poem, so the combination is...
