How to unlock the The Princess' Lost Treasure achievement in Tell Me Why - Definitive Guide

Missable achievement if you skip doing the barn loft's wall puzzles and go straight to opening the locked box.

When you first enter the barn loft, you will find a giant puzzle against the back wall. To solve it, press these sections of the wall (all sections are described from your perspective):

-The creature's left hand
-The small rounded tree above the creature's right hand
-The princess in the tree to the right
-The castle on the left
-The sign at the very top

This will open a compartment in the wall. After examining it (and getting the 13th and final collectible), you will unlock a compartment to examine as well as the ability to do the next wall puzzle.

Turn around 180 degrees and look at the center wall puzzle on your left. It is blue in color. You have to slide tiles so they hover over certain pictures to complete it. From top the bottom:

-Move the top slider so the hole is over the dove
-Move the next slider to the far left so the hole is over the ballerina
-Move the next slider to the far right so the hole is over the lady in the dress
-Move the bottom slider so the hole is over the man in the overalls

This will unlock another wall compartment to examine and the next wall puzzle. Do another 180 and face the next central wall puzzle. This one is a series of objects you need to click in a certain order. Click these:

-The castle in the lower left corner
-The flowers at the top center
-The clock in the bottom right
-The house and tree on the far right side
-The dinner party in the center of the image

This will unlock the next compartment of which there is a paper inside. Read this to unlock the achievement.

P.S.: to unlock the lock box, the combination is leo (all lower case cursive letters).

For the first section there is no giant tree on the left I think you mean the castle. After trying your order the door never unlocked so the correct order is

Title (at the top) Castle (left) hand (bottom) Girl (far right) Tree (Right). Then the door opens

From there follow the rest of the guide achievement unlocks

I'm am idiot, I got mixed up. Although I swear the sign is the last thing, so maybe it's interchangable. Solution updated.

To add you NEED to read the paper inside the last compartment for the achievement to unlock. I waited the longest time and nothing happened after I solved it.

Thank you Tveilor, I updated the solution. I was clicking so fast I didn't realise reading the paper was part of the achievement.

if you solve the LEO box before you open the 3rd puzzle wall, you'll have to start the segment over and do the puzzles the right way to read the paper (I learned this the hard way)

In the chapter 'Princess and Tiara', you will be in the barn loft with a bunch of puzzles to solve in order to open a box. Make sure you solve the puzzles instead of breaking open the box.

The first puzzle is located on the back wall and requires you to press the following buttons: Hand, Tree, Princess, Castle, Title.

The second puzzle is on the left side wall and requires you to slide the pieces to these positions (from top to bottom): 1 left (Dove), 2 left (Ballerina), 2 right (Engineering), 1 right (Painter).

The final puzzle is just behind you and requires you to push the buttons in this order: Castle, Flowers, Clock, House, Dinner Party.

You will unlock a secret compartment with a story in it, earning your achievement. You can replay any section of the Episode in Isolation mode without overwriting your story progress.
