Floor 6 Puzzle Overview

The Hollow Floor 6 puzzle is the Day 6 challenge in the event, and it is one of the more forgiving puzzles in the lineup. Your objective is simple: locate the puzzle room somewhere on the floor, interact with the puzzle device, and add three specific colors in any order. Once all three colors are placed, the puzzle resolves instantly and your path back to the elevator opens for the badge reward.

The difficulty on this floor comes from navigation, not from the puzzle mechanics. Floor 6's layout is a maze of corridors, dead ends, and lookalike rooms, and many players burn more time finding the puzzle room and returning to the elevator than actually solving the puzzle.

Video Highlights:

  • Find the puzzle room by exiting and checking the right side of the floor.
  • Add three colors to the device: orange, pink, and green in the demonstrated run.
  • Colors may differ between players, so check your device's requirements first.
  • The maze back to the elevator is the hardest part — expect dead ends.
  • Entering the elevator after solving awards the Day 6 badge.

Puzzle Room Location & Layout

The puzzle room is not marked on any map, so you need to sweep the floor systematically. In most runs, the room sits off to the right side of the floor after you leave the starting elevator area. Rooms that look like the puzzle room but contain nothing interactive are common decoys — always confirm the presence of the color device before committing to a room.

Location CheckWhat to Look ForSignal
Starting area exitsMultiple doorways leaving the elevator zoneCheck right side first
Decoy roomsEmpty rooms with no interactable deviceSkip and keep moving
Puzzle roomDevice with three empty color slotsStop and interact
Dead-end corridorsPaths that loop back on themselvesTurn around immediately
Search Pattern

Sweep the floor in one direction (right first, then loop left). This prevents you from re-checking rooms you already cleared, which is the most common way players waste minutes on this floor.

Color Puzzle Solution Step-by-Step

Once inside the puzzle room, approach the device. It displays three color slots that must be filled. In the reference run, the required colors were orange, pink, and green — but the game may assign a different set to you, so read the slots before hunting colors.

1

Read Your Color Slots

Interact with the device to see which three colors are required. Your colors may not match another player's, so never assume the sequence.

2

Find and Add Color One

Locate the first color object in or near the puzzle room. In the reference run this was orange — bring it back and add it to the device.

3

Find and Add Color Two

Repeat for the second color (pink in the demonstrated run). Confirm the visual color before adding, since lighting can distort shades.

4

Find and Add Color Three

Add the final color (green in the demonstrated run). Once all three slots are filled, the puzzle completes immediately.

5

Return to the Elevator

Navigate the maze back to the elevator, jump in, and collect your Day 6 badge.

Colors Vary Per Player

The orange-pink-green combination is one observed set. Your floor may require different colors entirely. Always read the device slots first instead of following a fixed color list.

Maze Navigation Back to the Elevator

This is where most players lose time on Floor 6. The return trip features misleading corridors, false stairs, and dead ends. Based on observed runs, the correct route generally trends to the right and then doubles back — but each session's layout can shift.

Right-Side Route

  • Exit puzzle room toward the right corridors
  • Generally the fastest observed path
  • Watch for early dead ends

Loop-Back Route

  • Follow outer corridors until they curve back
  • Good if right side is blocked
  • Longer but reliable

What to Avoid

  • Downward stairs that lead nowhere
  • Re-entering cleared decoy rooms
  • Doubling back without a plan
Navigation HazardDescriptionBest Response
False stairsLook like progress, lead to dead spaceTurn back immediately
Dead-end corridorsPaths that terminate abruptlyMark mentally, avoid retracing
Lookalike roomsEmpty decoys near the puzzle roomSkip, keep momentum
Looping pathsCorridors circling to visited areasBreak the loop by taking a new branch
Keep Moving

Standing still to decide costs more time than testing a branch. If a corridor dead-ends, reverse and take the next unexplored path. Most successful runs solve the return in under three minutes this way.

Day 6 Completion Checklist

Confirm every item below before you leave the floor. Missing any step means returning through the maze, which is the last thing you want after solving the puzzle.

Day 6 Essentials:

  • Locate the puzzle room with the color device
  • Read your three required color slots
  • Add all three colors to complete the puzzle
  • Navigate the maze back to the elevator

Badge Confirmed

Once you jump into the elevator after the puzzle resolves, the Day 6 badge is awarded automatically. No extra interactions or waiting are required.
