This solution is missing the first note E in the last line. EDIT ignore me, you have 4 E’s on the third line and not three

Just to add: When the level starts go right to the bookshelfs - press:

Egypt, Japan, Greece

it will open up the door to where the piano is :)

I did a lot of music growing up. It's hilarious how often it becomes useful in gaming. Nice and simple, when you see a musical instrument that you can interact with, just input this:

E D C D E E E
D D D E G G
E D C D E E E
E D D E D C

I did it to the timing of the tune, also.
Good Hunting.

Cheers. toast
Everything I found online used E E E at the end of the second line, or a variation using B A G.
Also, you definitely don't need to be close to in time. It would be almost impossible with a controller.

Worth adding that this is done on "The Entrance Exam" escape room once you get into the secret room behind the bookcase

I did this like super slow, so it should be easy if you are just careful to get the right letters.

Something to note that at the end of The Rival Room there's a puzzle with bells that are also lettered and make different sounds. I played the tune on them and the achievement unlocked. smile

Yeah, the reason this works is because it's classic and correct. Some variations are because of bass clef or they are over simplified versions.

Also, good shout about the rival room! :)

I'm glad you are finding this useful and I appreciate you guys appreciating it.

Can this be done after beating the game without having to start over from the beginning?

Go to your dorm, choose a level that has an instrument and just use your knowledge of the future to get there faster. Once it pops you can quit out.

For anyone playing the game in Spanish where the piano have the musical notes DO-RE-MI-FA-SOL-LA-SI, the corresponding order is C-D-E-F-G-A-B.

Once you are playing ‘The Entrance Exam’, walk over to the bookcase and inspect the books, then interact with them in this order: 1 - Egypt, 2 - Japan, 3 - Greece. If done correctly, the bookcase will open to reveal a secret room.

In this secret room is a piano. Interact with it and play the melody ‘Mary Had A Little Lamb’ using these keys:

EDCD EEE DDD EGG EDCD EEEE DDEDC

The achievement will unlock immediately.

If this is missed in your initial playthrough, you can replay this escape room via your dorm room’s bulletin board.

Refer to [3:55] in the walkthrough video for a visual guide.

Note: This can also be done later in the game in ‘The Rival Room’. Towards the end of the escape room, after completing the spin puzzle, you walk up to a wall of puzzles. There are bells on the left side. If you ring the bells in the same sequence as above, the achievement will unlock here.

If you, like me, also did not go to music school, then here is the required sequence of notes:

The piano, if anything, is on the second level, The Entrance Exam. You won’t pass by, one of the mysteries of the quest is connected with him.
