Video games feature all sorts of puzzles that challenge you to think critically and solve problems. Some puzzles are straightforward, while others require deeper thought and exploration. InStellar Blade, there are a bunch of puzzles available, and a few of them might really make you scratch your head.
One of the puzzles in the game, ironically named the Simple Puzzle, isn’t as simple as it sounds. It involves mathematics, which you might have guessed from the presence of numbers. You’re expected to solve it, but if you’re struggling, don’t worry – we’ve managed to crack it, so you won’t have to wrestle with the math riddles on your own.
How To Start The Simple Puzzle
TheSimple Puzzleis a request you canpick up from the Bulletin Board after arriving in Xion. Your task is tohead north of the town to a console, interact with it, andenter a specific code.
The only hints you have are a series of numbers and equations, all related to mathematics.
The math problem is as follows:
How To Complete The Simple Puzzle
Now, we’ve mentioned that this is a math problem, but you might not see any traditional math symbols, and it might not make sense at first glance. However, it’s a puzzle, sothere’s a twist to it.
If you want the quick answer, the code you need to input is304272.
However, if you’re curious about the math behind it, here’s the deal. Let’s take the first equation as an example:
The math behind this goes like this:4 multiplied by 7 equals 28, which are thefirst two numbersof the answer. Then,7 multiplied by 8 equals 56, which are thefollowing two numbersof the solution.
But how about the last two digits? Simple, justadd the two sums together. So,56 plus 28 equals 84, giving us the final answer 285684.
If you apply the same method to the next two cases, it will indeed work and provide you with the numbers mentioned in the hint, which proves that this is the method.
For our problem, 5@6@7:
All you have to do now is insert the code, head back to the Bulletin Board, andcomplete the request.
