The Indiana Jones Sacred Wounds puzzle has you pulling levers on a mural, using a bottle of wine to reveal numbers needed for Christ’s hand, feet and the sacred wound - where the spear pierced his side. It’s a technically simple puzzle, but there are a lot of moving parts, walking and five numbers to remember, so here’s everything you need to clear it.

Unlike other puzzles such as theIndiana Jones bookshelf puzzle, say, there’s no note or other guidance here. It’s all about getting hands on with what’s in front of you and working it all out yourself.

Indiana Jones Sacred Wounds puzzle solution

Before you can start the Indiana Jones sacred wounds puzzle you’ll need to approach the dish in front of the central mural, where you’ll get a prompt to pour the wine in you brought with you. This will cause five levers to appear on the picture of Jesus - one for each hand and foot, and one for the wound in Christ’s side.

Each of these levers can be moved between four positions and to get the numbers you need you’ll have to find the other murals that match the levers on the main image.

Each mural will have its own bowl to pour wine into reveal a number:

When you enter the Left Hand room you’ll be locked in, with the only path through to another room where you’ll find the mural of the Sacred Wound. Once you’ve got the final number from that you’ll be able to find and use a two handed weapon to break down the wall and get back into the main chamber.

When you get back to the main mural of Christ,select each lever and move it to the corresponding number revealed in each bowl by the wine. You’ll know when you’ve got it right as the levers will all disappear - the mural will then open by rotating, to show the path ahead so you can carry on exploring.
