Servant of the Lake Wine Box Puzzle: Day 1 and Day 3 Codes
Both Servant of the Lake wine box codes confirmed — 1753 on Day 1 and 1643 on Day 3 — plus how the rotating block puzzle works each time it appears.
The wine box puzzle appears twice — the Day 1 code is 1753 and the Day 3 code is 1643. Both times the mechanic is identical: a card next to the box shows the target year, and you rotate a set of number blocks until they match it.
| Appearance | Code | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | 1753 | Liquor cabinet during the toast/champagne scene |
| Day 3 | 1643 | Cellar wine rack during the finale |
Both codes are confirmed across multiple independent playthroughs with no conflicting reports, which puts this among the more reliably solved puzzles in the game if you already know which code applies to which day.
How the puzzle works
- Click the wine box or bottle on the shelf to open the rotating block puzzle.
- Read the target year printed on the card beside it — 1753 on Day 1, 1643 on Day 3.
- Rotate the number blocks until they match that year exactly.
- Once correct, a capped glass on the left side of the box pops open.
- Take the coin inside.
Officially confirmed as under-hinted
Player feedback collected around launch specifically named the wine box puzzle, alongside the flower puzzle, as one where the in-game guidance felt thin. If the target year on the card doesn't immediately make the correct rotation obvious, that's a widely shared reaction, not something you're missing.
Why the code changes between days
The Day 1 wine box ties into the champagne cabinet used during the toast scene — the same cabinet that hides the code needed for the Soothing the Baby achievement. The Day 3 version reuses the exact same mechanic in the cellar, just with a different target year and no connection to the earlier scene beyond the shared puzzle design.
