How to Crack Shiro's Keypad Code in Marvel's Wolverine
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
A quick guide on how to solve the manga bookshelf puzzle and crack Shiro's closet keypad code during the Bad Blood mission in Marvel's Wolverine.
Insomniac Games has plenty of linear set pieces in Marvel's Wolverine, but the studio throws a classic environmental puzzle your way during the Bad Blood mission. While exploring Shiro's penthouse apartment, Logan runs into a locked closet secured by a digital keypad. Relying purely on mutant senses will not work here because recent fingerprints cover most of the buttons, forcing players to properly investigate the room instead of guessing the combination.
As Polygon points out in their recent guide, players can easily get bogged down by checking red herring documents like medical billing invoices scattered around the room. The actual solution is hidden right in plain sight on the bookshelf among a row of manga volumes with distinct black spines and white writing. Four specific books in the middle stick out slightly from the rest, representing volumes 1, 9, 2, and 4.
Entering that sequence opens up the hidden room behind the closet and lets you push the narrative forward. It is a neat little nod to classic adventure game design that forces you to slow down and observe your surroundings between action heavy set pieces, proving that even an indestructible berserker has to do a bit of detective work sometimes.
