Solving the Star Puzzle: The Code in No Sleep For Kaname Date

Ota Is Trapped in the Elevator

In this part of No Sleep for Kaname Date, Ota is stuck inside an elevator. Iris and Moma, each on different floors, need to figure out how to help him escape from this creepy situation.

Getting the Code to Open the Elevator

At the start, you control Ota and need to give Iris a code. This helps her unlock a safety latch on the wall, which might lead to an exit. Before proceeding, make sure to grab an important item that you’ll need later.

How to Access the Star Puzzle

Later, after Moma joins the game, you’ll need to have Ota give Moma the Iris card. Then, Moma can go to the vending machine and buy a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Use it to peel off the sticker from the card.

Keep the Iris sticker. Return to the elevator and give Ota the Strange Code Card through the small crack at the bottom of the doors. Switch to Ota and use this card on the slot at the bottom of the elevator’s number keypad. This reveals the code 1380.

Use this code to open the safe inside the elevator, where you’ll find a new card and a button labeled “6”. Use that button in place of the sixth-floor button on the keypad, then press it to go to the sixth floor.

Star Puzzle Code Solution

When you regain control of Ota, you’ll need to take an item from the puzzle — an ammo magazine for a weapon he doesn’t have. Focus on the star symbol surrounded by six semicircles of different lengths.

Back on Iris’ floor, she needs a six-digit code to unlock a wall latch with the same star symbol. The numbers on the chart only show one and six, but they actually represent how much each semicircle is filled: one is the shortest, and six is almost a full circle. A big blue arrow points to the sixth line, which is very important for solving the puzzle.

Assign each semicircle a number between one and five based on how complete the circle is. The outermost circle is the first, and the innermost is the last. The order of these rings gives you the code needed to open the star safe.

How to Solve the Star Puzzle

This process can be tricky, as you need to remember the numbers related to each semicircle. Once you’ve assigned numbers, read from left to right along the blue arrow, starting with the outermost circle and ending with the innermost.

The final solution for the star puzzle, which opens Iris’ safe, is 512436.
