Servant of the Lake Day 2 Walkthrough: All Puzzles
Full Servant of the Lake Day 2 walkthrough — coffee code, waking William, the hunt, the five-senses laundry puzzle, and Alexandra's bath, with confirmed codes.
Day 2 opens with a silhouette-lamp puzzle that unlocks the coffee beans with the confirmed code 315, then moves through waking William, hunting, the laundry room, and Alexandra's bath before ending in the cellar. This page summarizes the full chapter in order; the two densest sections — the bath and the five-senses puzzle — get their own detailed pages linked below.
Morning: coffee and waking William
The silhouette portraits of the three siblings light up and go dark in a pattern that resolves to the code 315 (confirmed by two independent text sources after an earlier discrepancy over digit order), unlocking the coffee cabinet. Brew the coffee and bring it to Aldous.
Waking a hungover William takes several steps: reverse a pocket watch to speed up a seed into a bird egg, use a feather or spoon to draw eye drops from a crow, then match each sibling's keepsake (pipe, brooch, chalice) to its correct portrait position before using the chalice to collect saliva and administer the eye drops. William wakes up asking that this stay between the two of you, then wants his hat and something to eat before handing over the scroll from Day 1's attic search.
A common wrong instinct
Several players try using the spoon obtained here directly on William himself — it isn't for him. The spoon and the wake-up sequence are separate steps; don't waste time repeating the wrong interaction.
Aldous reveals the elixir legend
After reading the attic scroll, Aldous confirms the legend of the life-giving elixir is real, and asks you to quietly take the two remaining pocket watches from William and Alexandra without them noticing.
Hunting and the five senses
A balcony call sends you to the hunting ground, where you aim from a tree-stump rest in a simple shooting mini-game — hitting a deer or other game works, and accidentally hitting a passing crow doesn't fail the scene, it just triggers a small comedic reaction.
The laundry room's core puzzle runs through all five senses — sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing — and resolves to the confirmed code 91276, verified identically across two independent playthroughs. Sort the clotheslines by stripe count to get the key that opens the bathroom door.
Alexandra's bath
This section is dense enough to warrant its own page — see the bathroom puzzle guide for the tile-sorting puzzle, the soap dish slider, and the confirmed 281 cabinet code that hides a bronze pocket watch.
- Coffee code: 315
- Five-senses code: 91276
- Bath cabinet code: 281 (full breakdown on the bathroom puzzle page)
Night: the cave beneath the cellar
Aldous asks you to bring all three pocket watches down through the cellar into a hidden cave. Gold, silver, and bronze watches each match a carved symbol on a statue; inserting them correctly opens a passage below. The barrel puzzle that follows is a multi-step chain involving a shovel, a magnet, matches, and a bottle opener, ending with the three watches set to 5, 8, and 10 to open the final door.
Just before the door opens, Alexandra intercepts the book you find inside and admits she's been following you all along — setting up Day 3.
