How to Solve the Mechanical Eye Door Riddle in Disney Dreamlight Valley
To solve the mechanical eye puzzle’s riddle and unlock the door, you’ll have to snap a picture of it with your camera! Yep, the one on your ingame phone alongside your royal tools. While it won’t immediately unlock when you point the camera at the entrance, it’ll glow blue and open once you take the photo and leave the menu.
The screenshot below shows an example of the type of picture I took to solve this puzzle and unlock the door.
While I was completing this quest, I went into the third-person perspective to get the entire archway in view. While I didn’t test if the first-person perspective worked, I can vouch that the third-person view works fine with zero issues. However, you’re more than welcome to try either if you want to experiment with angles or prefer one over the other.
