Blue Prince Billiard room dartboard puzzle solution
Although there aren’t really any hints for solving the dartboard puzzle in the Billiard room, you can find one clue from a letter. This letter indicates that this challenge involves amathematical puzzleand has nothing to do with the actual game of darts. Unfortunately for players, this puzzle has no fixed answer, as the solutions are constantly changing—much like the shifting landscape of Mt. Holly. But I can guide you in the right direction and help you navigate through the various equations.
Your main focus should be on the colors on the dartboard. When starting the puzzle,four colorscan appear, eachcorrelating to a math symbol. Here’s a look into what they mean:
Each color can appear on the board next to a number.Blue-colored numbers are the most crucial, as they are the starting numbers. For instance, if the dartboard had one blue spot on 16 and two yellow spots on one and three, it would translate to “16 – 1 = 15” and then “15 – 3 = 12”. Therefore, 12 would be the answer. Sometimes, there are multiple blues, so you’ll need to add them together to find the base number for the equation. From there, you can begin multiplying, subtracting, or dividing, depending on the other colors present.
Typically,you’ll start with one blue section, where you can tap on the number it’s on.
Once you tap this number, more colors will show up. In my case, the numbers five, two, and one were blue. So, the answer would come out to eight. The third equation is where things get more tricky, especially since this minigamedoesn’t follow the mathematical order of PEMDAS(Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction).
Instead,the order requires you to add, subtract, multiply, and then divide. For example, I had a blue on 10, a yellow on four, and a pink on three. This comes out to “10 – 4 = 6” and “6 x 3=18,” meaning 18 would be the answer.
Each time you solve an equation, the colors will change again. You mustsolve four equations in total to open the dartboard,with the exception of the first answer (the simple tap of one number). Use the tips above to answer each one, and you’ll eventually open up the board to acquire valuable items like a Security Keycard or Key. Although it’s not mandatory to solve the dartboard puzzle inBlue Prince, it’s still good to do for rewards. You can even come across it again on a different day, whether you solved it before or not. The solutions and rewards inside will, of course, be different—but hopefully, with this knowledge, you’ll be ready to conquer them without losing your way.
What does it mean when the blue is on the bullseye in Blue Prince Darts puzzle?
After playing through the dartboard puzzle a few times, there’s one scenario that really had me scratching my head. When the blue lands dead center on the bullseye, it triggers something entirely different. You have tomultiply it with the same numberit’s on.
In my playthrough, the dartboard had two blue spots on the four and the bullseye. That gives me the equation “4 x 4 = 16,” so I would then hit 16. It might get even more complicated than this version, where you’ll be juggling a whole mess of equations at once. In cases like that, you might want to grab a calculator to help keep you from getting tangled in the numbers.
