How to open the safe in the Pregzt office

This article will guide you on how to solve the Pregzt Shipping Company Dial Lock Code Puzzle in Chapter 3 of Alone In The Dark, which is released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S on March 20, 2024.


As you proceed through Chapter 3 in search of Jeremy’s clues, you’ll arrive on the second level of the Pregzt Shipping Company. Here you will find a locked safe in the corner of the room.

To open the safe in Alone in the Dark at the Pregzt Shipping Company office, players need to solve a riddle. This riddle is located in the lower compartment of the cabinet in the same room.

The hint on the note is.

What is left
Later is right
And hell is back again

As per the hint, the player must rotate the dial of the locked safe left, right, and then left again.

The number of times the dial has to be rotated can be calculated from the words: “what” has four letters, “later” has five, and “hell” has four. 

So, to open the safe, rotate the dial left to 4 (anti-clock), then right to 5 (clockwise), and left one notch to 4(anti-clock).
