1. Solve the Notch Puzzle

To solve the notch puzzle, you have to first solve the Painting Puzzle. Afterward, the player who is playing in the past has to open the box on the ground with the help of the player who is playing in the future. There will be some symbols that the future player knows and has to relay to the past player. After that, the box gets opened, and the Past gets a lump of coal.

Now, to get the notch puzzle, the past player needs to use the coal in the fire pit of the room. The Future player must inspect the back of the device till that time because the pattern is the same as the notch problem.

After the notches get matched, the future player will get a battery from the machine which he will insert into the device. The time will be told to the past which is 17:15 and he will change the clock to 5:15. In the coffin screen, behind the broken picture of Albert, the Past player will find a key.

2. Solve the Glass Door Puzzle

After solving the notch puzzle, the key that you have received is to be used now. Use the key to open the second drawer of the table. After you open the table, you will get a face mask. You have to put that mask in front of the mirror. As you will keep it, the room will start turning white with falling snow.

On the Past’s screen, you will see a double door on which different shapes are made. Since the Past player had found a key, now it’s the Future player’s turn to find the key. Now, on the right side of the fan in the machine, place the key under the circle and insert it. After inserting the key, you will be able to rotate it and the frame will be opened.

The two players need to communicate with each other and find a common shape in the image. The mask that you got earlier will help the future player to see the screen on the Past’s player device and can tell him which object they should click. As you will click them, the symbols will change and until you see each other, you need to repeat the process.

Then, you will find some papers, that you will need to compare next. The future player has to turn down the first two switches of the first row and in the second row the second switch to get the tape to come out. To do so, he needs to turn to the left of the device.
