I froze when the purple glyph appeared at the edge of my minimap. An hour of wandering later I realized the code wasn’t in one place — it was scattered. You can finish it in ten minutes if you know where to look.
I’ve pulled these symbols apart, photographed them, and mapped them for players who are tired of guessing. I’ll walk you to the exact spots, show how the puzzle expects the symbols to be entered, and explain the reward so you can decide if it’s worth the detour.
On my desk a printed map lay under a coffee ring. How to get the Area 41 code in Far Far West
The Area 41 code is four symbols, each hiding on a different map. You won’t find any numbers — the game uses tiny purple glyphs placed near landmarks. If you miss one, the puzzle forces you to start over, so treating this like a hunt is the only sane approach.
The four maps that contain the symbols are:
- Far West
- Desert
- Canyon
- Woodlands
How do I get the Area 41 code in Far Far West?
Go to each of the four maps above and hunt for a small purple icon on the map overlay. When you spot one, pause the game and take a screenshot with your platform’s tool: Steam overlay (F12) on PC, Windows Snipping Tool, or GeForce Experience. I recommend naming screenshots by map so you avoid confusion later.
Where are the symbols for Area 41?
Each map contains one unique symbol. The game paints them purple on the in-game map; they’re small and easy to miss if you’re sprinting. Stop, zoom the map, and mark them with screenshots. If you forget one, the puzzle won’t let you guess the missing piece — you’ll have to find it again.
My notebook had four scribbles beside an empty checkbox. How to solve the Area 41 secret puzzle code in Far Far West
When you reach the Area 41 terminal there are four slots, each labeled by dots: one dot, two dots, three dots, four dots. The symbol you collected on the map must go into the slot that has the same number of dots beneath the pillar symbol.
Put the one-dot symbol into the one-dot slot, the two-dot symbol into the two-dot slot, and so on. Follow the order; there is no trick where the game accepts rearranged pieces. The puzzle is a locked diary: the entries must be put back where they belong.
What is the reward for solving Area 41?
Completing the code grants the Anti-Gravity Falls Joker, a trinket that gives a +2% chance to create an anti-gravity zone when you kill an enemy. It’s a niche effect but it pairs well with burst weapons and crowd-control setups. Think of the Joker as a mischievous gravity magnet that shifts fights for a few chaotic seconds.
If you want to shave time, use Steam’s overlay to capture each glyph, or GeForce Experience for instant screenshots on NVIDIA hardware. Keep files labeled by map and you’ll avoid replaying hunts.
So: is this small hunt worth your time, or just another detour in the map — and more importantly, which weapon will you test the Joker with first?
