Navigating the terrifying halls of the Raccoon City Police Department requires sharp wits and a keen eye for detail. To escape this nightmare scenario, both Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield must solve the intricate puzzle of the Goddess Statue in the Main Hall. Unlocking this secret pathway depends entirely on retrieving three hidden medallions by inputting the correct symbol combinations into ancient monuments.
Solving the Main Hall Lion Statue
The Lion Statue is the most accessible monument, situated directly on the second floor of the Main Hall. For players navigating their first run, the necessary sequence of symbols is Lion, Leafy Branch, and Bird. Entering this code correctly will immediately drop the Lion Emblem into your inventory.
When attempting a second run scenario, Capcom changes the solution to increase the difficulty. You will need to rotate the dials to display the Crown, Torch, and Bird icons instead. Gathering this medallion early provides a smooth start to your stressful exploration route.
Unlocking the Lounge Unicorn Statue
Players can locate the Unicorn Statue inside the Lounge on the second floor, right next to the Library. During the standard first campaign playthrough, you must align the symbols to show Fish, Scorpion, and Vase. This puzzle grants you the vital Unicorn Emblem needed to progress downstream.
If you are playing the alternate second run, the solution shifts to keep veterans on their toes. The updated combination requires you to select Two People, Scales, and the Uncoiled Snake. Inputting these correct characters ensures you do not waste valuable time backtracking through zombie-infested corridors.
Breaching the West Storage Area Maiden Statue
The Maiden Statue is easily the trickiest monument to solve because it rests behind a barricaded wall on the third floor. Before accessing the dials, you must combine the Detonator found near the Operations Room with the Battery from the STARS Office to blast open the debris. Once inside, first run players should carefully enter the worn-out symbols of Woman, Bow, and Snake.
For the second run playthrough, the symbols change to a completely fresh arrangement. The puzzle solution shifts to Ram, Harp, and Bird to reflect the increased campaign difficulty. Successfully placing all three acquired items into the central Goddess Statue unlocks the critical escape hatch underneath the police station.
