Solving the Button Puzzle in Little Nightmares 3’s Carnevale

Stepping out of the rattling elevator and onto the dusty platform of the Carnevale, players immediately feel the shift in atmosphere. The cheerful yet decaying carnival lights stand frozen, and the massive central rotary mechanism refuses to budge. It’s a classic Little Nightmares 3 moment — the way forward is right in front of you, but the power is dead, and the only option is to poke around the shadows until something clicks. Well, not just click. You’ll have to shoot, swing, and yank your way through one of the early brain-teasers of Chapter 3.

To restore electricity to the area, players need to head right from the main platform and slip into a cramped power room. It’s easy to miss at first — especially when your ears are still ringing from the Candy Factory’s horrors — but inside is a colossal electrical box with 12 buttons arranged in a 4×3 grid. This isn’t just random button-mashing territory. Supermassive Games clearly wanted players to keep their eyes open.

Right next to the intimidating panel hangs a retractable blind. Pull it down, let it snap back up, and suddenly the puzzle’s secret flashes into view. A poster on the wall reveals the exact sequence of buttons that need to be hit to bring the dormant machine to life. It’s a quiet, almost gentle nudge in a game that rarely gives you anything for free.
