How to Solve the “Freedom Trail” Code?
As we explained above, the “Freedom Trail” is such an important Railroad code.
Here is a guide to solve the “Freedom Trail” code:
-
- At the first step, you must go to Boston Common.
- After that, you can start a conversation with the Tour Bot that will provide you with information regarding the Freedom Trail and surrounding area.
- Then, look down and notice the path of bricks on the ground. It is the “Freedom Trail” that will lead you to all the historic sites around Boston. At each site, you will discover a number with a letter.
- Please follow the path. Ensure you remember or write down all number and letter combinations you discover.
- Old North Church is the final location on the path. It is situated northeast of Boston Common. Now, you can enter the Old North Church, and go to the basement. There you will be able to discover a catacomb with a strange dial-lock.
- Next, you must enter the code by rotating the dial in both directions. the following is the code you must enter; 1R (fReedom) 2A (trAil) 3I (traIl) 4L (traiL) 5R (tRail) 60 (freedOm) 7A (trAil) 8D (freeDom).
- Each time the indicated letter is set correctly, just press the center button. A hidden passage will open after you input all the letters and press the center button.
- Afterwards, you can go down the hidden path and reach the Railroad faction inside.
- Please talk with Railroad members and accept their “Tradecraft” quest.
Once you finish the quest, you will become part of the Railroad faction. Also, you will be able to meet a select group of people in the Railroad, including Deacon, Desdamona, and Tinker Tom.
