Train45 Dark Room Guide
The Dark Room is a story terminal, not one of the eleven lost-item boxes. Players searching 闇の部屋, 黑暗之房, or “Pazuzu dark room” need this page: unlock the memo in chapter 5, queue cars 2-3-10-41, bring Pazuzu, and pick up the hidden Steam achievement.
What the Dark Room Actually Is
Train45’s Dark Room is a story terminal on Pazuzu’s rescue arc. The in-game hint is labeled Memo – Dark Room (Japanese 闇の部屋, Chinese 黑暗之房). Clearing it plays Pazuzu trapped in a dark room and unlocks the hidden achievement It's dark... it's scary...
It is not a lost-and-found box, not required for the true ending, and not the same as Konial’s Memo (that memo is 8-31-45-54 for the engine room). Keep three systems separate: chests, the eleven optional boxes, and Pazuzu’s story beats (wallet + Dark Room + Punishment Car).
You still want it on a completion run. The scene is a gallery CG, the achievement is easy to miss if you skip Pazuzu, and the first visit to most terminals still raises equipment capacity.
Unlock and Route 2-3-10-41
Chapter 5 story progress hands you the Dark Room memo. Do not guess the code before the memo exists — destinations 9–19 reject guessed routes until you own the matching hint, and this story terminal follows the same lock.
Once the memo is in inventory, open the phone map and queue 2-3-10-41:
| Car | Anomaly | Role |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Crow | First car in the Dark Room chain |
| 3 | Button | Second car |
| 10 | Reverse / retrograde | Third car |
| 41 | Bondage | Fourth car — terminal door |
Community tables sometimes list the same four cars in a different order (for example 10-3-41-2). The phone map wants the memo’s sequence. Use 2-3-10-41 to match the terminal-routes table on this wiki. If the door refuses you, confirm the memo is in inventory, the Copper Bracelet is unequipped, and Pazuzu is the companion walking with you.
Pazuzu Requirement and Achievement
Bring Pazuzu. A wrong companion at a story terminal wastes the full route — you must re-queue 2-3-10-41 from the start. Affinity with Pazuzu should already be moving from her earlier beats: meeting her outside the window (Next Customer, Please~) and recovering her wallet (Lost Item Found!).
Inside the Dark Room, follow the scene. The achievement It's dark... it's scary... pops when you find Pazuzu trapped there. That is a Pazuzu-story trophy, not a box collectable and not a true-ending flag.

Common Dark Room Failures
- Copper Bracelet still on. Navigation is dead and any queued cars were wiped. Unequip, then type 2-3-10-41 again. See Phone Map.
- Memo not unlocked. Chapter 5 must hand you Memo – Dark Room first. Typing the four cars early does nothing.
- Wrong companion. Reina or Mai at the door sends you back to the route start.
- Confusing it with Konial’s Memo. Engine-room code is 8-31-45-54. Dark Room is 2-3-10-41. Mixing them is the fastest way to hit the Destined End lever by accident.
- Skipping it for “true ending only.” True ending does not need this room. 100% and Pazuzu’s achievement do.
After the scene, check the Event Gallery. If the CG is missing, you entered with the wrong companion or left before the scene finished. Gallery rules: Event Gallery.
