Sally Face episode 3 walkthrough: Puzzles & Secrets

The Prologue introduces two puzzle chains before Sally reaches the school. The puzzles are timed, but pausing gives you room to inspect the clues and plan each input. The camera monster is slower than it first appears, so careful solving is safer than rushing.

Video Highlights:

• The correct shape order for the Scary Door
• The reverse-order telephone input
• The first Missing Page and Premonition locations

The Scary Door

Use the visual clues to arrange the shapes by height:

The first lever lowers a shape, while the second lever raises it. Match each panel to the order above to unlock the white door and obtain Premonition 1/2.

Swirls and the Telephone

The swirling energy face speaks through numbers. Combine the two text boxes to form:

9687 96753 47 663 63 6269

Read the numbers as phone-keyboard text to reveal the message: “This world is one of many.”

The telephone sets must be entered from right to left:

Continue left after entering the final set to collect the book. This adds Missing Pages 1/11 and Premonition 2/2 to the route.

The school section combines light exploration with several small item puzzles. Search every room before advancing the story, because some objects support achievements and collectibles that become inconvenient to recover later.

Health Inspectors

Use this route to collect the early items:

1. Talk to Kim.
2. Enter Mrs. Packerton’s classroom, room 104, and pick up the paperclip.
3. Enter the Science Lab, room 201, and collect the sticky tack.
4. Talk to Todd.
5. Visit the courtyard and interact with the tree on the left until the tennis ball falls.
6. Throw the tennis ball at the window.
7. Talk to Larry and inspect Ash’s locker.
8. Take Ash’s camera, then complete the second courtyard interaction.
9. Photograph the bird in the upper-right tree.
10. Give the bird photograph to Kim in the cafeteria.

The bird clue connects to Kim’s interest in feeding birds. After this sequence, enter the boys’ room, pick up the note near the trash can, and speak with the person in the third stall. Choose the dialogue sequence three, two, three, two.

Bad Student

Inspect Mrs. Packerton’s desk and enter the first four digits of pi as the Roman-numeral pattern:

III-I-IV-I

Take the strange metal object. Before continuing, remember the letters revealed by the whiteout clue. Meeting Todd in his room is the major point of no return for the apartment side content.

Complete the apartment tasks before returning to Todd’s room. This is the most efficient time to collect the remaining letters, use the Gearboy, and finish the Clumpy sequence.

Apartment Password and Gearboy Route

The computer in Dad’s room uses the password 491145. The clue connects Diane’s name to alphabet-number positions. Collect the letter beside the bed afterward for Missing Pages 4/11.

Clumpy Strategy

Clumpy becomes easier when you control the screen instead of chasing every target. Stay near the upper-left corner and focus on red and green flies. The recharge bar in the upper-left shows when the next attack is ready. Reaching 1,000 points completes Clumpy 8/8.

Once the side content is complete, enter Todd’s room in room 202 to resume the main story. This section contains several clue-based puzzles where the surrounding environment provides the needed answers.

Follow this sequence:

• Give Todd the bologna in the Science Lab.
• Enter Mrs. Packerton’s room and interact with the relevant objects.
• Speak with Larry and inspect the refrigerator.
• Use the Gearboy at the blood splatter near the fridge.
• Set the radio to 104.7. The goat’s ear tag supplies the clue.
• Set the clock to 12:12, matching the number of goat sounds.
• Enter bedroom 1 and use the Gearboy near Mr. Packerton.
• Pull the plug, then enter bedroom 2.
• Open the freezer with I-IV-I-III. Compare the bloodstains with the Morse code paper.
• Align the two whiteout messages. The completed message is backwards:

“You are unique. You are not like the others. You must unbind yourself from this world, Sal.”

Cult Room Route

Enter bedroom 2 and inspect the torn carpet on the right. Use the Gearboy on the light, speak with Todd, and travel left to collect the light bulb. Install it in the nearby lamp and use the Gearboy again.

Continue right past Todd and inspect the chest to collect Missing Pages 9/11. Return left, pull the right lever, pull the left lever twice, and step on the button.

The final section contains two maze routes and a long button sequence. Sound is the main navigation clue: follow the scary wind noises for Larry Boy, then use silence to navigate Sally’s route.

Larry Boy Maze

Enter the doors in this order:

Right door, middle door, left door, then walk left.

For the first button puzzle, step on:

5, 4, 3, 4, 3, 2, 3, 2, 1

Pull the lever, walk right, and exit through the third door.

Back to Sally

Use the silent route:

Middle door, left door, right door

Walk right, step on the ominous button, and pull the lever. Return left and exit through the left door.

The large button puzzle can be solved with the following groups:

After entering the final sequence, do not go through the door right away.

Before You Leave

Walk right across all the buttons and pass through the door. Use the Gearboy on the lights and talk with the figure to unlock Messenger 1/1 and Missing Pages 10/11.

Return to the button puzzle room, go through the door, and pull the lever. Inspect the floor stick, then travel right to obtain the final letter for Missing Pages 11/11. Read the journal before heading all the way left, since this is the safest point to confirm your collection progress.
