Silent Hill f – Worship Hall Cage Puzzle Solution (All Difficulties)

If you’ve reached the Dark Shrine Worship Hall in Silent Hill f, you’ll find it’s a challenging area. It’s filled with tough enemies, unsettling imagery like hanging cages, and puzzles that demand careful attention. A particularly difficult obstacle is the Cage Puzzle-sometimes called the Light Puzzle-where you must position Fox and Rabbit statues correctly to lower cages and obtain a key needed to progress.

No need to stress, I can help! I’ll explain exactly how to solve each challenge – Story, Hard, and Lost in the Fog – so you can easily get through this part.

Worship Hall Cage Puzzle Solution (All Difficulties)

Let’s talk about the statues! You’ll see four of them – two on the left and two on the right. You can rotate these statues, and the goal is to position the Fox and Rabbit pairs to face the right way. When they’re aligned correctly, the cages will lower, opening their doors and giving you the Restrain Lampshade and the Talon Lampshade.

Next, put the lampshades on the lights in front of Sakuko’s cage. Once you do, you’ll receive the White Rabbit Emblem Key, which will unlock the next part of the Worship Hall.

Story Mode Cage Puzzle Solution

For the Story difficulty setting, the solution is simple: make sure the fox and rabbit statues on each side are facing each other.

Left Statues: Fox → facing Rabbit
Right Statues: Fox → facing Rabbit

This sets the cages to floor level, unlocking them. Nice and simple.

Hard Mode Cage Puzzle Solution

When playing on Hard mode, the puzzle changes. Instead of having the animals look at each other, you’ll need to rotate them so they face away from each other.

Left Statues: Fox ← facing away from Rabbit →
Right Statues: Fox ← facing away from Rabbit →

Once done, the cages lower, and you’ll get the same reward: the Restrain and Talon Lampshades.

Lost in the Fog Cage Puzzle Solution

Here’s where it gets a bit more challenging. When playing on Lost in the Fog difficulty, the puzzle introduces a new element: the patterns on the left and right sides aren’t consistent with each other.

Left Statues: Fox and Rabbit face away from each other
Right Statues: Both Fox and Rabbit face to the left

It’s easy to mix this one up, so double-check your alignments before trying to move forward.

Here’s a helpful way to remember this: imagine the left side represents opposition, and the right side shows everyone united and facing the same direction. Keeping this in mind can prevent you from having to redo your work.

Cage Puzzle Rewards

No matter what difficulty you’re on, solving the Cage Puzzle will give you:

Restrain Lampshade
Talon Lampshade
Access to the White Rabbit Emblem Key (after placing the shades on the altar)

This key is essential because it opens the western chambers of the Worship Hall, granting access to the next puzzle and continuing the story.

Wrap-Up

Okay, so the Worship Hall Cage Puzzle in *Silent Hill f*? That one really stuck with me. It’s a great example of how the game builds tension and makes you *think*. Depending on the difficulty, the way you solve it changes – in Story mode it’s pretty straightforward with matching statues, but on Hard, it’s all about opposites. Lost in the Fog throws a curveball and makes you really figure things out. But honestly, once you understand how the statue alignments work, it’s super rewarding to finally crack it!

With the White Rabbit Emblem Key, you can now continue further into the Worship Hall and face the upcoming challenges. But be careful-Silent Hill is full of surprises!
