Here's how to solve Tolman's Elevator Switch puzzle and activate the elevators in every corner of Crow Country.

How To Solve Tolman's Elevator Switch Puzzle

Tolman's Elevator Switch puzzle can be found in Tolman's office, and is necessary to turn on the elevators all around the map. To get to Tolman's Office, you'll need to first have earned the Silver Key, since it's necessary to open the door. You can then head back into the utility corridor behind the Fairy statue in Fairytale Town to find Tolman's Office door.

Once you're inside, you'll find Tolman sitting in a chair, along with a TV with four tapes above it. Each tape is labelled with a different year, and a different disaster. You'll also notice a keyboard in the corner of the room. Before solving the puzzle, you may want to talk to Tolman to hear what he has to say, since it's relevant to the story and lore.

To solve the puzzle, watch each of the tapes on top of the TV in order (earliest year first, most recent year last) and note the movie that plays on the screen each time. As each tape plays, you'll notice a letter flashing across the screen. In order, they spell out FACE.

Each of those letters is also on a keyboard or piano, so approach the keyboard and type in the letters in that order: FACE. Immediately, the elevator switch in Tolman's Office will become unlocked, allowing you to walk up to it and flip it. You can then talk to Tolman one more time before heading out and using the elevators you've just activated.
