Cauldron Lake Nursery Rhyme Puzzles In Alan Wake 2
There are three Nursery Rhyme puzzles in the Cauldron Lake area of Alan Wake 2.
Step 1. Find The Crow Doll
To solve the first part of the Nursery Rhyme puzzle in Alan Wake 2, you need to get your hands on the Crow Doll. You can find it on the edge of the picnic table, as shown in the image carousel.
Finding this doll isn't enough, though—you'll have to place it correctly to earn your reward. With the Crow Doll in hand, turn around to see the Nursery Rhyme puzzle on the floor.
Interact with the puzzle, select the Sun drawing at the top left, and place the Crow Doll on it. Now, return to the table where you found the Crow Doll in Alan Wake 2, and you will find a Charm waiting for you in the center of the table.
Step 2. Find The Wolf Doll And The Hero Doll
The next Nursery Rhyme puzzle in Cauldron Lake involves finding both the Hero Doll and the Wolf Doll in Alan Wake 2. Head to the Witchfinder's Station shown in the image carousel. Once there, head upstairs to the second floor of the shelter.
Take a right turn at the top of the stairs and head into the playroom—you will find the Hero Doll lying on the floor waiting for you. Just to the right of the Hero Doll, you will see a blue box, and on top of that will be the Wolf Doll. Grab both dolls!
Now, head back to the Nursery Rhyme puzzle downstairs. Place the Hero Doll on the picture of the Boat at the bottom left. Place the Wolf Doll on the picture of the Tree at the bottom right. You'll start to get a weird feeling— when you do, pick up both dolls and head back upstairs.
You will see that now a new Charm is awaiting you once more in the middle of the playpen. The playpen is to the left of where you found the Hero Doll. Now take all your dolls and proceed to the third and final step of the Nursery Rhyme puzzle in Alan Wake 2's Cauldron Lake area.
Step 3. Placing The Hero Doll, Wolf Doll And Crow Doll
To finish the final part of the Nursery Rhyme puzzle in Alan Wake 2, you must go to the Private Cabin illustrated in the carousel. Once there, interact with the puzzle exactly as follows:
- Put the Crow Doll on the picture of the Egg.
- Place the Hero Doll on the Heart.
- Place the Wolf Doll on the House.
And with that, you have completed the Cauldron Lake Nursery Rhyme puzzle in Alan Wake 2! But don't forget your Charm. To retrieve it, turn right from the puzzle and go under the log into the forest. Next, turn left until you find a small Dollhouse—the Charm is located inside.
