The Coin Cabinet Puzzle in Silent Hill 2 is located in Room 105 of the Blue Creek Apartments, and requires you to find three coins – the Old Man, Snake, and Prisoner coins – and then place them into the slots of the cabinet in the correct order.
Here’s how to solve it on each difficulty:
- The cabinet has three open slots.
- Place the Man, Maiden (Prisoner), and Flower (Snake) coins in that order.
- When the riddle changes, flip the Man coin to reveal the Blade, and flip the Flower coin to reveal the Snake.
- When the riddle changes again, flip the Snake to its original side, flip the Maiden to reveal the Grave, and flip the Blade to reveal the Man.
- For the final riddle, you can choose either the Man, Woman (Maiden), or Snake coin to move to the top slot to unlock the cabinet.
- All five slots on the cabinet are open.
- Place the Man, Woman (Maiden), and Flower (Snake) coins in slots one, three, and five respectively.
- When the riddle changes to “The man doth approach”, move the Man coin to slot two and flip it to reveal the Sword, and move the Woman coin to slot four.
- When the riddle changes to “Where once grew a Flower”, flip the Flower coin to show the Snake and keep it in slot five, flip the Woman coin to show the Gravestone and keep it in slot four, and flip the Sword coin to show the Man and move it to slot three.
- Similar to easy mode, the final riddle allows you to choose either the Man, Snake, or Woman coin for the top slot.
- The first riddle requires you to place the Man coin in the first slot, leave two slots empty, and then place the Grave coin followed by the Snake coin.
- For the second riddle, the order is Grave, Sword, Flower, followed by two empty slots.
- For the third riddle, leave the first slot empty, then place the Man coin, followed by the Woman coin, another empty slot, and finally the Snake coin.
- Finally, move the Woman coin to the upper slot.
