Indiana Jones & The Great Circle: How To Solve The Timely Arrival Mystery

1 week ago 7

The Sukhothai area in Indiana Jones & The Great Circle has different Mystery side quests you can solve, including "Timely Arrival," which rewards you with Adventure Points for completing it. The puzzle in this Mystery is tricky, demanding you find a hidden combination to a locked crate. You have to use clues found by exploring important areas if you want a chance at solving this Mystery.

Unlike "The Serpent's Chest" Mystery in Indiana Jones & TGC, "Timely Arrival" is a quest that can be completed in Sukhothai alone. You don't need to retrace your steps in any other region to find the answers to this Mystery. This makes "Timely Arrival" a great side quest to pursue once you enter the area since the rewards from solving it can help make you stronger for the main story.

How To Start The Timely Arrival Mystery

Infiltrate A Camp Full Of Enemies

To start "Timely Arrival," you must travel to Wat Chana Songkhram, an area in the central north of the larger Sukhothai region. Once here, head to the Nazi Camp, which is fenced off in the middle of the dense jungle making up this location. This camp should not be confused with Voss' Camp at the northern border of your map, nor the Fascist Armory camp seen to the southwest along the water routes in Sukhothai.

What is your favorite map in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle takes players to a wide variety of exciting locations in its semi-open-world map, inviting us to explore the locales for both the main adventure, as well as collectibles. Though I haven't finished the game yet, my favorite location is definitely Sukhothai, Siam, as I love the way the side quests work to inform players on the country's culture and history, but also love the puzzles introduced in the section, particularly with the rebreather. 

You should spot the Nazi camp by noticing its barbed wire fence, high guard tower, and blue barrels lying around with some crates. This is a fascist storage camp, guarded by several enemy soldiers who you'll have to sneak past. Enter the camp by crawling under a hole in the fence, which you can spot by slowly traveling around the camp's perimeter until you find the opening.

Those who want to start this quest easily should pick up the Royal Army Uniform from Voss' Camp first. This clothing item can be equipped to make fascist soldiers not attack you on sight, allowing you to explore their bases freely.

When you enter the camp, go to the main tent covered in a green tarp alongside the fence. You can use the barrels and crates here to move around stealthily, but keep your weapons in Indiana Jones & TGC close at hand just in case. The tent itself has several objects you can inspect, including a classified shipment paper note on a desk table that starts the "Timely Arrival" Mystery.

Find The Right Code

The Shipment Paper document that starts the Mystery states that a classified shipment has been sent to the fascists. This shipment can be seen across from the desk, where a large green lockbox can be investigated. Your goal to complete the Mystery is to find the code that opens this lockbox using clues you can find in the camp.

Just reading the Shipment Paper clue gives you 50 Adventure Points, while completing the entire Mystery will reward you with 250 when you solve its puzzle.

Similar to other Mysteries in Indiana Jones & TGC, you immediately get a clue with the Shipment Paper. Apparently, the "key" to the lockbox is GIADA, a code word of some sort. This won't make a lot of sense until you pick up the Mystery Note next to the Shipment Paper to gain some more context.

How To Get The Rebreather In Indiana Jones & The Great Circle

The Rebreather is an essential item to get in Indiana Jones & The Great Circle to solve the Serpent's Chest Mystery, but this tool doesn't come cheap.

The Mystery Note contains a Code Lookup Table, where individual letters match up to numbers based on days of the week. For example, the first row "A" signifies the number 7 on Sunday, which is the first-day column titled with the phrase "Lun." According to the Shipment Paper, the lockbox was delivered on a Saturday, giving you the exact column you need to follow to interpret the code.

Saturday is the sixth column on the Code Lookup Table, so follow it to determine which numbers each letter connects to. Once you figure out how to decipher the code, the combination for the lockbox should be:

  • G - 5
  • I - 9
  • A - 4
  • D - 0
  • A - 4

Enter 59404 into the lockbox to open it, immediately rewarding you with a stack of money and some Adventure Points. You also can pick up an Exploration guidebook called "Sukhothai Medicine," which details where rare medicine bottles can be found around the region. Collecting all 20 collectible bottles located in Sukhothai will give Indiana an increase in his health and stamina, making you much stronger.

Adventure Points earned from this Mystery can also be applied to new upgrades. Anyone who solves the main puzzle for the "Timely Arrival" Mystery in Indiana Jones & The Great Circle can easily find ways to improve Indiana's overall strength for other challenging quests in the future.
