Spoiler Warning: Please note that this article contains potential spoilers for those who have not completed the game. Proceed with caution if you wish to preserve the surprise and enjoyment of experiencing the game firsthand.
Bedroom Puzzle
After reaching your room, Birly will enter the small yellow tent and come out with a train conductor’s hat, leaving behind a piece of a train track. Pick up this discarded train track by left-clicking on it and slot it into the space near the door.
First Achievement (Train)
Next, find the plug located next to the door and connect it. This action will start the train toy and a firefly will be released, unlocking the first achievement.
The train will stop because the track is blocked. Walk over to the track and push the obstruction to clear the path, opening the way to the next room.
Second Achievement (Vinyl)
- In the next room, go upstairs and pick up Birly. Toss him up the broken stairs and instruct him to drop the ladder for you.
- Take note of a photo on the wall and a small table with a box next to it. On top of the box, you’ll find a vinyl record. Carry this record with you to the next room.
After a brief cutscene, pick up the vinyl record again and place it on the phonograph in the room’s southeastern corner. Doing this will unlock the second achievement.
Bathroom Puzzle
- To progress further, use the cabinet to climb the wall and ascend until you reach a metal pipe. Hold onto this pipe and follow it to the air duct that Birly entered. You’ll find yourself standing on a large cabinet that is about to fall here.
- Before the cabinet falls entirely, jump to the ledge on the other side. Instead of dropping down, use the exposed wooden frame on the wall as a temporary ladder.
- Observe a red piece of cloth on this wooden frame close to the red light. Use this cloth as a ladder again to ascend and find a valve.
- Push the toolbox off and then turn off the valve. This action allows you to safely cross over the metal pipes and proceed to the next area.

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
