Time, Space and Matter: Secret Code Locations

Introduction

After you complete level Y2.5, you are told you need to find a 4-digit code for a red door. From that point onward you can find hidden secrets that reveal 1 or 2 digits of this code and potentially where those digits occur in the code. If you find 5 of them, you will earn the Explorer achievement. Other than those 5 and the code itself to unlock the red door, there is no tangible reward for finding more or even all of them.

The code itself is random each time you start a new game, but the secret code locations and which digit(s) the code reveals is always the same.

This guide serves more as a way to find codes for what digits you are missing as you near the end of the game. You can find the full 4-digit code even if you’ve missed every single secret up until the end of Chapter 6.
