If you are exploring MONOMOON, you will eventually come across the Red Temple, which contains several tricky logic puzzles. Some puzzles are easy to figure out, while others require you to carefully observe symbols, shapes, lines, and hidden numbers.
In this guide, I will show you how to find the Red Temple, open its entrance, and solve all nine puzzles. I’ve included hints and step-by-step explanations so you can try solving each puzzle yourself before looking at the answer.
Whether you are stuck on a particular puzzle or want to complete the entire Red Temple, this guide covers everything you need to know.
MONOMOON Red Temple Puzzle Solutions – All 9 Puzzles
The Red Temple entrance is located at the bottom-center of the map, around coordinates (15,08).
You might have already spotted its outline while exploring, but reaching the entrance can be a little confusing. Here’s how you can get inside.
Starting position: Coordinates (13,07).
Hints
- Hint 1: One entrance is blocked by a button, which appears to be a shortcut. The other entrance has a lift that you can send down.
- Hint 2: Look at where the lift goes. Can you reach that location without releasing your LMB?
- Hint 3: What happens if you have to release your LMB? Is there another way to reach the lift?
Solution
First, activate the lift fully. Once it is activated, quickly teleport to the save point at coordinates (13,05). From there, go up one screen and get onto the lift before it leaves.
This will allow you to reach the Red Temple entrance.
How to Open the Red Temple Door
Before entering the Red Temple, you need to solve the entrance door puzzle. The door has a wheel with several symbols, and you might not immediately understand what they represent.
Hint: The symbols represent numbers. You need to understand how counting works in the game’s language.
Solution
Rotate the symbols until they follow the correct numerical order from 0 to 9 in a clockwise direction. Pay attention to the number of dots on each symbol to understand its value.
Once you arrange them correctly, the Red Temple door will open.
Red Temple Puzzle 1 Solution
The first puzzle is based on counting horizontal lines in different figures. You need to look at each figure separately rather than treating the entire code as one large number.
Hints
- Hint 1: Think of the code as three independent digits instead of one three-digit number.
- Hint 2: Look at the chalk drawing on the wall. It tells you that each horizontal line counts as 1.
Solution
Examine each figure and count the number of horizontal lines. Each figure represents one digit of the code.
Count the horizontal lines in all three figures and enter the results in the correct order.
Answer: 503
Red Temple Puzzle 2 Solution
For the second puzzle, you need to pay attention to the lines connecting the circles. Instead of counting the circles themselves, focus on the twists and turns between them.
Hints
- Hint 1: The chalk drawing on the wall represents a value of 0. Think about what is missing from that drawing but appears multiple times in the actual puzzle.
Solution
You must count the number of twists and turns between the circles. These twists and turns determine the numbers you need to enter.
Answer: 12
Red Temple Puzzle 3 Solution
The third puzzle requires you to examine the figures carefully and count their intersecting lines. The chalk drawing on the wall provides an important clue.
Hints
- Hint 1: Take a closer look at the three buttons. Do you notice anything unusual?
- Hint 2: The chalk drawing represents the value 2. Think about what appears twice in that drawing.
- Hint 3: Assume that the second figure is symmetrical.
Solution
You need to count the number of intersecting lines in each figure.
For the second figure, remember to account for its symmetry when calculating the answer. The three digits give you the following code.
Answer: 616
Red Temple Puzzle 4 Solution
Puzzle 4 is all about finding hidden numbers inside different figures. There are four figures and four buttons, so each figure represents one digit of the final code.
Hints
- Hint 1: Compare all four figures. What similarities and differences can you notice? Do any of them look familiar?
- Hint 2: There are four figures and four buttons. Could each figure represent one digit?
Solution
Look closely at each figure and try to identify the number hidden inside its square-shaped pattern.
Each figure contains a number that you need to recognize. Once you identify all four numbers and arrange them in the correct order, enter the code.
Answer: 5297
Red Temple Puzzle 5 Solution
The fifth puzzle introduces a different type of logic. You need to compare pairs of symbols and figure out which lines should remain in the final result.
Hints
- Hint 1: There are three columns and three buttons. Each column might give you one digit.
- Hint 2: Try drawing each pair of symbols next to each other. Look for their similarities and differences.
- Hint 3: You need to use a logic gate to combine the symbols and produce the result.
Solution
This puzzle uses the XOR (Exclusive OR) logic gate.
To solve it, compare the two symbols in each pair. Keep only the line segments that appear in one symbol but not in the other.
If a line segment appears in both symbols, remove it. If it appears in only one symbol, keep it.
Repeat this process for all three columns to get the final code.
Answer: 357
Red Temple Puzzle 6 Solution
Puzzle 6 might look confusing because part of the mural is missing. However, you don’t actually need to find the missing piece to solve it.
Hints
- Hint 1: You don’t need to recover the missing piece of the mural.
- Hint 2: This puzzle is an exact copy of an earlier puzzle, although some information is missing.
Solution
The sixth puzzle follows the same logic as Puzzle 4.
You need to identify the hidden numbers embedded inside the square-shaped figures. Look at the available shapes and find the numbers represented by each one.
Once you identify both numbers, enter them in the correct order.
Answer: 64
Red Temple Puzzle 7 Solution
For Puzzle 7, you need to use light to reveal additional information on the wall. This puzzle is slightly different because you have to combine number symbols to recreate the original figure.
Hints
- Hint 1: Try shining a light on the wall.
- Hint 2: Think about which number symbols you can write inside the figure.
- Hint 3: The three buttons on the side indicate which digit of the code each line represents. For example, the top line helps you find the second digit.
- Hint 4: Try combining some of the number symbols from the previous hint into a single figure.
Solution
You need to identify three number symbols that, when combined, recreate the original figure.
Each number must be drawn using one of the highlighted lines. These highlighted lines also tell you the order in which the three digits should be entered.
Pay attention to the buttons on the side because they indicate the correct position of each digit.
Answer: 523
Red Temple Puzzle 8 Solution
The eighth puzzle also requires you to shine light on the wall. This time, the important clue is the dots inside the triangular sections.
Some triangles have one dot, while others have two. Understanding what these dots represent will help you find the correct numbers.
Hints
- Hint 1: Try shining a light on the wall.
- Hint 2: Why do some triangles have one dot while others have two?
- Hint 3: You don’t need to find the missing piece of the third figure.
- Hint 4: Try writing random number symbols inside each figure. Check whether the dots make sense for any of them.
Solution
The dots represent the number of lines adjacent to each triangular cell when you write a number symbol inside the grid.
You need to identify the number symbols that match the dot arrangement in each figure. Use this information to work out all three digits.
Answer: 097
Red Temple Puzzle 9 Solution
The ninth and final puzzle is quite different from the previous ones. Instead of simply counting lines or identifying hidden numbers, you need to use information from puzzles you have already completed.
Hints
- Hint 1: This puzzle works differently from the others.
- Hint 2: Try shining a light on the wall.
- Hint 3: Take a close look at the buttons. Do you notice anything?
- Hint 4: The three small rectangles with different widths that interact with your Moon look similar to something else in the room.
- Hint 5: Open your map and look for anything that matches the shapes.
- Hint 6: The three large blank squares represent puzzles you have already solved.
Solution
The final puzzle refers to three previous puzzles located on the second floor of the Red Temple:
- Puzzle 4
- Puzzle 5
- Puzzle 6
You need to collect the correct digits from the solutions to these three puzzles and combine them to create the final code.
Use the relevant digits from each previous answer in the correct order to unlock the final puzzle.
