Big Walk: So, what's the deal with that number puzzle?

If you're stuck on this early puzzle, we can give you some hints—or the complete solution.

Big Walk: So, what's the deal with that number puzzle?

In the world of Big Walk, players encounter a peculiar challenge involving a structure near the beach, housing a four-digit number combination inside a frosted glass container. Having previously solved similar puzzles, the player recognizes the significance of these numbers. The numbers, 4166 and 1899, are actually latitude and longitude coordinates that point to the exact location of the button needed to access the prize.

The article provides a step-by-step solution to the puzzle, starting with the discovery of a map after completing five other puzzles and the red tower. The map, along with a portable compass, allows players to locate the grid square where the button is hidden, east and south of the starting hub. The "66" in 4166 and "99" in 1899 represent more precise measurements, indicating the button's position within the grid.

Two items can be used to find the button: a map or a GPS device. The latter requires visiting the green tower, where a red frame holding the GPS can be found near another sign with additional numbers. Once the GPS is obtained, players can either use it directly or attach it to a companion's backpack to track the button's location on the island.

With the button in hand and the nubbin in the puzzle building, players can successfully complete the number puzzle and claim the prize.

  • Chain of thought can be correct yet unfaithful to actual reasoning.
  • Biased training data can alter model predictions independently of explanation.
  • Faithfulness varies by task and isn't guaranteed by model scaling.
