After exploring Bandle’s laboratory in Mouse: P.I. For Hire, players must head to the Clerical Row and infiltrate a police station teeming with corrupt officers. During the exploration, you will stumble upon a block of cells with prisoners.
Once you’ve dealt with the mice in the cells, you’ll need to open the block to access the next area and continue the mission. However, figuring out how to open the two locked doors can be tricky. This guide will walk you through how to solve this puzzle.
How to Open the Cell Block in Mouse: P.I. For Hire
In the cell block on Clerical Row, there are two doors that are marked as “locked” when approached. To open them, you need to solve a puzzle in the room with monitors.
In this room, there are two panels with buttons, each with its own set of levers labeled with numbers. These levers are connected to a screen visible through a window on the opposite side of the room. The player must manipulate the levers, adding and subtracting values, to make the numbers on the left side of the screen match the numbers on the right.
