The Mermaid Mask Guide | How to Solve Puzzle in Dream Chamber

The Dream Chamber in The Mermaid Mask holds two separate puzzles worth covering: the Perfume Shelf and, further along, the Skull Shelf. This guide walks through both.

Perfume Shelf

The Perfume Shelf puzzle is found by clicking the shelf along the back wall of the Dream Chamber. The goal in this Mermaid Mask puzzle is matching each dropper to its correct bottle, and you figure this out by reading the labels describing each bottle's consistency; clicking a bottle shows you its traits. The first bottle fizzes with effervescence. The second has a clear X marked on its label. The third carries a red tint on the label. The fourth is thick and glutinous. The fifth gives off a strange vapor. The sixth drips quickly. Getting all six droppers matched correctly unlocks the bookshelf.

Skull Shelf

Clicking the back of that same bookshelf leads to the Cabinet of Curiosities, where the Skull Shelf puzzle waits, though it only unlocks after reporting to Sinthia. For this puzzle, you need to arrange the labels and skulls into an accurate grid; four skulls each have distinct eyes, jaws, and noses, and the remaining traits should be labeled correctly across the top. Solving the Skull Shelf puzzle unlocks the Mermaid's Tongue.
