How to solve a riddle with yellow symbols
In the first puzzle you have to make the right combination to open the door. You’ve already encountered a similar riddle while playing the story campaign for Leon. To do this, you need to find yellow symbols scattered around the location and activate them in a certain order:
- Top center;
- Bottom right;
- Center left.
How to solve the lithographic plate puzzle
A similar riddle was also found in the main game for Leon, but in the expansion it was slightly changed. Of course, it would be strange to add multiple identical puzzles to the game. Here’s her solution:
- Turn the board with the umbrella on the right side over to create a fan and place it in the upper part;
- Place the board with the parasol on it on the right side;
- Move the plate down on the right;
- Install the remaining plate in place of the first plate on the left.

How to solve the shield puzzle in the castle
A little later you reach a room in the castle, where you see several shields on the wall. Here you can find a hint about the opposite wall: the player must shoot the shields in a certain order. Here is the right combination:
- Bottom left side;
- Top right;
- Bottom right.

At this point the cabinet drawer will open, where you can pick up the red ink.

How to solve the bubble puzzle
Once in a room with a huge gate, interact with the first bell on the left. You can do it manually or shoot it – it doesn’t matter.

When the gate opens, shoot the snake targets on the right and left. Then find three bubbles with birds – one of them is behind bars.

This way you can pick up the red lantern, but immediately afterwards spikes will appear in the wall and the passage behind the heroine will be blocked. On the left you will find the bird bell and shoot it, also activating two similar targets behind the bars.

Repeat the steps with the seahorses – one of the targets is behind the bars on the left.

All that remains is to shoot the bells with the image of snakes to get out of the corridor. Use Ada’s grappling hook for this.

How to solve a riddle with a scanner – what is the code for the lock
Later in the story you find yourself in a room with an entomological collection, where you have to follow the tracks using a scanner to find the right combination for a locked cabinet. When you open it, you will receive a plot item: a blue butterfly. Here she is:
- creature;
- Pry;
- Lizard.
These are all the riddles and puzzles you’ll encounter while completing the Resident Evil 4 Remake story DLC – Separate Ways. If you encounter any problem, cannot complete a particular episode or would like to add to the guide, please write about it in the comments.
