Stellar Blade: How to Solve the Simple Puzzle

How good are you at maths?

The Simple Puzzle is a really interesting obstacle for Stellar Blade players to solve. The puzzle encourages players to test their mental and mathematical aptitude when they observe it for the first time. Thankfully, you won’t have to employ all your grey cells trying to figure out the solution. Here’s how to solve the Simple Puzzle in Stellar Blade.

Stellar Blade Simple Puzzle Quest Solution

Here’s how the puzzle reads when you accept it from the bulletin board:

4@7@8 = 285684

9@3@5 = 271542

6@2@7 = 121426

5@6@7 = ?

At first, this will appear really confusing, but the trick to the solution is hidden in the first three lines. 

  • All three solutions have 6 digits. 
  • The first two numbers are the result of multiplying the first two digits on the left-hand side. 
  • The third and fourth digits are the result of multiplying the second and third digits on the left-hand side. 
  • The fifth and sixth digits are the results of adding the two products you get in the previous step. 

In simpler words, you get 28 by multiplying 4 and 7. You get 56 by multiplying 7 and 8. Finally, you add 28 and 56 to get 84. This is the exact pattern that’s also applicable to the second and third lines. Applying this logic, the solution of the Simple Puzzle is 304272. 

Stellar Blade Simple Puzzle Quest Location

The Simple Puzzle in Stellar Blade is part of a side quest, so there’s always a chance that you might miss it entirely. Completing it is not necessary for you to enjoy the main campaign, based on how Stellar Blade’s quest system works. 

The best place to find the side quests like Simple Puzzle is the bulletin board. To start solving the puzzle, you’ll first need to accept the challenge from the board itself. There are different quests, but both the Simple and Wisdom Puzzles will test your knowledge of mathematics and logical reasoning to a large extent. 

Once you accept the puzzle, you’ll need to enter the solution at a console located in the northern part of Xion. Finding the location in Stellar Blade will be easy since this will be marked on your map. That’s all you need to do in order to solve this slightly tricky mathematics puzzle on your adventure.
