Resident Evil 4‘s Separate Ways DLC tells a parallel story that shows what Ada Wong was up to during Leon’s adventure. And although her grappling hook provides some fun new mobility mechanics that can help her reach new heights, she’ll still need to solve some puzzles to proceed through certain barriers. The first real puzzle to pop up in the Separate Ways journey is in Chapter 2, when your progress is impeded by a door that can only be unlocked by pressing specific symbols on a mechanism beside it. We’ll tell you the correct symbols to press below so that you can get through the door and continue Ada’s expedition.

How to open the door in Chapter 2

When you arrive at the door with the mechanism to its left, you’ll find that you can only press down three symbols before the puzzle resets. As such, you’ll need to press the correct symbols all in one go for the door to unlock. And while you can turn around and scan the area for some clues if you’d like, we’ve actually got the correct order ready for you to go below. Even better, you don’t have to press any of the symbols first or last, so just follow the image below in any order you’d like.

When you’ve pressed the correct symbols on the mechanism, you’ll find that the door opens for you and allows you to continue through Chapter 2. Don’t get too comfortable, though – there are some much trickier puzzles coming later in the game.

While gaming on a PC is great, it can be very pricey, especially if you're the sort of person who really wants to push the graphics to the limit. Unfortunately, doing that can cost you a big chunk of money, not to mention that it requires the time and effort to put one together. Luckily, consoles like the PS5 and Xbox are easy to use for pretty much anybody and are very much plug-and-play. That said, there aren't a ton of great deals on the consoles themselves right now, although there are still quite a few good bundle deals that are worth grabbing. To that end, we've gone out and collected our favorite Series S and X deals, PlayStation 5 deals, and Nintendo Switch deals, so you can pick whichever one sparks your fancy.

How to fix all paintings in Life is Strange: Double Exposure
Max Caulfield

Life is Strange: Double Exposure tells an emotional and captivating tale that aims to keep you guessing right up till the end, and there are plenty of serious (and occasionally melodramatic) story beats to focus on as you work through this narrative-first adventure. But that doesn't mean there's never any time for a bit of fun on the side. As a matter of fact, you'll encounter a lot of optional content that just exists for worldbuilding purposes in this newest entry in the long-running franchise. One such event occurs in the opening hour of the game when a handwritten note on the wall informs you that some goofball has been turning the art pieces in the Snapping Turtle bar upside down.

If you want to earn a bit of appreciation from art enthusiasts, as well as net the "Art Restoration" trophy and achievement, you'll want to fix all three paintings in the Snapping Turtle bar. Here are their locations.
