How To Solve The Arithmancy Door Puzzle
The doors shut with a number lock require basic arithmetic skills to open up. Its key for solutions lies within the game where a clue obtained at the first Arithmancy Door provides the numerical value of each animal symbol upon the door.
- You can find the sheet with number clues by visiting the top floor of the Library Annex. It will tell you how each animal symbol is allocated a number between 0-9.
- In this way, the locks are simply mathematical equations that require players to place the numerical values corresponding to their animal symbols and derive the correct answer. After achieving the answer, you may use the right and left dials on the door and open the door easily. The number allocated to the animal symbols are as follows:
- 0 – Demiguise
- 1 – Unicorn
- 2 – Graphorn
