Chapter 5 · Brutal
Puzzle 5-7 (Secret) Hacking Solution
Solve the hidden cipher — required for True Ending.
Diana's path
- Step 1. Open the HIDDEN tile sequence: NE → C → SW → C → NW.
- Step 2. Trigger the third commit node TWICE (double-tap interact).
- Step 3. Final node only spawns if all 4 prior secret hacks were solved.
Hugh's combat side
Diana Shadow boss runs in parallel.
Tips
- If the timer drops below 3s, prioritise the commit node — partial credit is better than a reset.
- Hacking Module I (Echo-04 reward) adds +1s to every timer. Get it before any Hard puzzle.
- Practice the path once on your phone before pulling the trigger if you're on Brutal.
