Early in the Silent Hill 2 remake, protagonist James Sunderland makes his way to the Wood Side Apartments, and after searching almost every inch, leaps across a small gap into another building, the Blue Creek Apartments. It’s here, in Silent Hill’s strange and frightening Otherworld, that James faces even more puzzles blocking his progress. One of those puzzles is in Apartment 202, in a room filled with moths.
To find your way through this room, you need to figure out how the moths relate to a nearby padlock that closes off the way forward. The clue to the solution is the diagram next to the lock, where you’ll see math equations using a few different icons: a crescent, a circle inside a diamond, and a skull.
Solving this puzzle requires understanding what the writing on the wall means, and exploring the ins and outs of the bug room. If you’re stumped, read on for the Silent Hill 2 remake moth puzzle solution that will help you get out of Apartment 202 and make your way through Blue Creek Apartments and deeper into Silent Hill. Of course, this guide will spoil the puzzle, so if you want to figure it out yourself, stop reading now.
