If you’ve made it past the chaos with the critters of Poppy Playtime – Chapter 4: Safe Haven, you’re probably still catching your breath. But don’t get too comfortable—mysteries still lurk in the shadows, and your next challenge awaits, the Code Cell Puzzle! Follow my guide to crack the code and push forward—before something finds you first.
Enter Code Cell Puzzle | Chapter 4 Safe Haven
With the Critter chaos behind you, move through the newly opened path until you reach the opposite end of the cell block. You’ll notice a Red Grab Pack Hand Scanner mounted on the right wall. Use the red hand from the Guard’s Quarters to activate it, unlocking the heavy metal door beside it.
Climb the stairs leading to an office that overlooks the entire cell block. Inside, you’ll find a foreboding setup: a terminal with a keypad, a whiteboard featuring an unsettling game of Hangman, and a cardboard cutout of an unfamiliar yet intriguing toy.
There, you’ll meet Yarnaby—a lion made entirely of yarn. Cute? Maybe. Sinister? Almost certainly. Now, focusing on the whiteboard, Huggy Wuggy dangles from a noose, with “CELL” revealed as the answer to the Hangman puzzle. Beside it, a cipher chart displays a number-to-letter key, which you’ll need to crack the code.

To unlock the terminal, you’ll need a four-digit password. Here’s how to solve it:
- Locate each letter of “CELL” on the cipher chart.
- Match the letters to their corresponding numbers.
- Input the final code into the keypad.
If you’d rather skip the detective work, the correct code is 3255.
Once entered, press the red button beside the terminal and watch as the massive shutter across the cell block slowly rises. Now, exit the office and make your way toward the newly revealed path. You’ll come across a broken metal door—use your Grab Pack Hands to pull apart the obstructing bars, opening up a passage that leads directly into Prison Reception.
