Partway through Silent Hill: The Short Message, you’ll find yourself in a school hallway where you must unlock a locker to progress. The only issue is, you need to find the code. The problem is that figuring out the solution to this puzzle is pretty obtuse. That’s where we come in.

We’ll go over how exactly to figure this puzzle out, but if you just want the solution, the locker code in Silent Hill: The Short Message is 0312. Enter that into the lock, and it should open, allowing you to progress.

In the classroom, study the desk with the word “LIAR” on it. You’ll notice that the four letters are drawn and pasted in different colors: black, red, yellow, and blue.

You’ll find different digits scrawled throughout the hallway in each one of these colors, and you need to put them in order. 0 is colored in black, 3 is colored in red, 1 is colored in yellow, while 2 is colored in blue. Put them in the order that “LIAR” is spelled on the desk, and you get 0312.
