Resident Evil 8 Village Statues Puzzle Solution

The solution to the statues puzzle in the Resident Evil 8 Village Hall of Ablution is on the wall, in the form of a rhyme. You can find it on the plaque that sits opposite from the door to the puzzle room. It reads: “Women are blind to male advances, but the poor shall take their chances / to give their lord their bounty sown, so that soon the wine may flow.” If you’ve played any horror game ever, you’re already familiar with the nonsense-rhyme puzzles; this just basically tells you which direction to turn the statues in.

To make things easier, we’ll first name the statues. We’ll call them Horse (obvious), Beggars (again, obvious), Lady (the woman with the big hat), and Maiden (the woman with the hood). Now, let’s go about actually solving the puzzle, step by step.

  • Horse – turn the statue to face the Maiden.
  • Lady – turn the statue to face the Maiden.
  • Beggars – turn the statue to face the Horse.
  • Maiden – turn the statue to face the Lady.

So, that’s the Hall of Ablution Statues Puzzle solution in Resident Evil 8 Village.

Climb down, and continue on your way.
