Comprehensive Solutions for Every Layer

Select Language:

After reaching the middle school in Silent Hill f, you’ll find yourself in a room with no visible way out. The only way to open the doors again is to solve a box puzzle placed in front of you. The puzzle’s story is unclear, making it seem more complicated than it actually is, which can be a bit overwhelming.

Fortunately, the puzzle is simpler than it looks. It has three parts, and the last part can be tricky if you’re not familiar with the shapes of Japanese flowers and trees.

Secret Box Puzzle Solutions

The first clue comes from a story about visiting a cafe, where a dessert is decorated with a “sweet and tart fruit.” You might try to guess which fruit it is, but the solution to the puzzle is easier than that.

First Box Layer

Open the wooden panels on the box to see which fruits could be described as sweet or tart. Flip the box around and do the same on the other side. The result will be some fruits marked with open panels, while others stay closed (indicated by black boxes).

Front Side	Fruits	Back Side	Fruits
❑	Apple	❑	Grapes
Cherries	❑	❑	❑
❑	Grapefruit	❑	Strawberry
	Pineapple

(The black boxes mean the panels stay shut.)

Second Box Layer

Press “A” to confirm your choices, then you’ll move to the next stage, which involves a new clue. The story talks about filling journals, so select journals and books from the options provided.

Front Side	Journals
❑	Closed Journal
Standing Journal	❑
Open Journal	❑

Third Box Layer

The final clue mentions “beautifully blooming sakura,” so select images of cherry blossoms or cherry trees. This step is the hardest part, but the correct choices are:

Front Side	Fruits/ Trees	Back Side
❑	Sakura Blossoms	❑
❑	Sakura Tree	❑
❑	Sakura Branch	❑

Once completed, give this answer to unlock the Second Floor Classroom Key, helping you advance further in the school. However, expect more puzzles ahead—the next challenge is to decode Girl Code to find locker combinations. Luckily, that puzzle is less cryptic than the box, so the toughest parts of Silent Hill f are nearly behind you.
