Silent Hill: Townfall Guide: Solving the Clara Woods Puzzles and Opening the Atlas Way Gate
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Navigating the Clara Woods region in Silent Hill: Townfall requires solving three distinct residential puzzles to craft the device needed to open the Atlas Way gate.
Progressing through the Missing Parts mission in Silent Hill: Townfall eventually brings players to a frustrating roadblock in the Clara Woods region. To clear the strange gate blocking access to the CEG Headquarters, you must track down three separate mechanical parts hidden away across the area. This requires diving into a complex multi-stage investigation involving employee lockers, corrupted floppy disks, and temporal audio logs.
The search kicks off at the CEG Employee Lockers, where reading the local terminal reveals a list of targets and a barcode scanner. Players must explore three residential locations to gather missing card IDs and solve unique environmental riddles. The 5 South Brae residence demands a software fix for a corrupted floppy disk, while 6 North Brae requires counting objects in the environment based on clues found in a lamenting poem. Meanwhile, the 5 Upper Brae house introduces a clever temporal puzzle utilizing multiple audio tapes and shifting time periods to uncover a hidden safe combination.
Once you have successfully cracked the codes at all three locations, you can return to the employee lockers to claim your rewards and collect the necessary mechanical components. Combining these items in your inventory yields the Constructed Mechanical Device needed for the Atlas Way gate. Slot it into the mechanism to finish the mission and finally push forward into the CEG Headquarters.
