So, let me guide you through accessing the secret rooms where the developer hid some fun easter eggs in Placid Plastic Duck Simulator!
I’ve just uncovered a way to access these hidden gems within the game. Let’s dive in and explore the step-by-step process of solving the puzzles that unlock these delightful easter eggs.
First Map (Infinity Cool)
To start our journey into the first part of the secret, head over to the Infinity Cool map. As you explore the area around the pool, keep an eye out for a sizable metal door situated on the building behind it.
When you hover your cursor over the door and right-click, it should highlight in a striking red color. Clicking on the door will bring up a keypad interface. Now, here’s where our first clue comes into play. Nearby, there’s a small blackboard duck with a message scrawled across it. The message reads, “The door will open when you find the” with the last word blurred out. (Spoiler alert: It’s “code”). Keep in mind that you don’t necessarily have to wait for the duck to spawn; it’s just there to provide a hint.
Second Map (Quacking the Ice)
So, to start off in the room, we should look at the Quacking the Ice map. When you enter the room with the fireplace, check out the curtain on the right side. Initially closed, it’ll open after some time, revealing our next clue.
Our second clue consists of pictures of a few ducks. At the bottom left, there’s an old-fashioned-looking duck alongside a psychedelic one in the middle.
Moving on to the painting on the right, it depicts ducks playing a card game. Interestingly, one duck seems to be cheating. If you scan the ghost duck with the cyborg duck, you’ll get a message labeling him as a cheater. Was he possibly murdered by one of the other ducks? Additionally, there’s the secret service duck nearby.
In the top right, there’s a peculiar poster with numbers on it. These numbers are ASCII numbers, which I’ve converted into text for you. They translate to “LSDina.”
Now, it’s time to head back to the Infinity cool.
Return to the First Map
On the first map, let’s rename the psychedelic duck to LSDina and the cartoon-looking duck to Hedy. Each duck will have a number displayed over it, which varies for each player. For example, for me, it turned into 22 and 51.
To obtain Hedy’s name, listen to a Morse code message on the radio tuned to 97.0 FM.
After naming both ducks, input this code into the keypad on the door to access the first room. In this room, you’ll find a soda can on the table (although it’s not visible here because I’ve already collected it). This soda can is essential for the next steps.
On the right side of the room, you’ll notice dominoes arranged on a bench. The pattern may vary for different players, but it serves as a password for accessing the next step, should you choose to pursue the second easter egg.
Now, you should spot your newly acquired soda can on the table next to the small pool.
If you’ve followed all the steps correctly, you should see a specific icon on your screen somewhere when in the main menu.
Move to the Hippospace Map
Congratulations on accessing the secret room! Now, let’s head over to the Hippo Space map to collect the second soda can. This map is a DLC, so if you don’t have it, you’ll need to purchase it for $1.
Our first point of interest is a small tunnel with a tentacle inside it.
After a short wait, the tentacle will move aside, allowing your ducks to enter a dome room with a console on one side.
Beside the console, there’s a hatch containing a duck with a TV head. Click on this hatch to release the duck, as we’ll need him later.
Returning to the console, we’ll input the pattern from the dominoes found in the first secret room. For example, mine looked like this.
After entering the pattern, the screen on the bottom left will display an 8-digit password.
For instance, mine was c4a0aee.
Now that we have our password, let’s head to the duck launcher, where you can sit inside. There’s a terminal inside that we can use for this easter egg.
For our username, it’s actually located on the astronaut duck’s suit. It might be a bit hard to see in the screenshot, but it reads G.Toto.
Accessing the Terminal
To find the second easter egg, follow these steps within the terminal:
Start by entering “G.Toto” as the username.
Input the password obtained by solving the puzzle on the console.
After entering these details, the screen will display the following:
If you know about DOS commands, you’ll get this, but no sweat if you don’t—I’ll guide you through it step by step.
First, type “dir” (without the quotes) and then press enter.
This will bring up the screen you’re looking for.
Next up, we gotta get into the forsaken folder.
To do that, just type “cd forsaken folder” (without the quotes).
Now, while you’re in that section, let’s check out what’s in there by typing “dir” (without the quotes).
Once you spot the Texture.db file, try to open it up. But heads up, you might get a message saying it’s corrupted. Still, give it a shot by typing “open Texture.db” (again, without the quotes).
Alright, let’s head back to the main directory. Type “cd ..” (without the quotes). If it takes you back to a blank screen, no worries—just type “dir” to bring up the menus again.
Now, let’s dive into the log directory. Type “cd log” (yep, no quotes).
You’ll spot a fresh error log in there. Open it up by typing “open error.log” (still no quotes).
Here’s the message you should see on your screen:
To open up the midi logs, let’s head back to the main screen in the terminal. Type “cd sounds” (still no quotes).
Now, for those X, Y, Z spots, we’re gonna open up the midi files. The position of the letter G in each file tells us the corresponding X, Y, Z locations. So, Midi.1 equals X, Midi.2 equals Y, and Midi.3 equals Z.
So if you’ve got a code like GXXXXGYYYGZZZ, it translates to G2222G666G444704 in this case.
Find your TV duck again and rename him to this code from the previous step. This will change his face accordingly. Once done, you’ll unlock the next step in the terminal.
Let’s head back to the main terminal screen by typing “cd ..” (no quotes), then enter “cd sys” to move into the sys directory.
Once you’re there, type “dir” and hit enter to see what’s available.
Now, to unlock the next step, type “open spawner.exe” (still no quotes).
Congratulations! You’ve just unlocked the second can of pineapple juice for your game. Cheers!
Looks like there’s a new item that popped up in the little folder icon on your screen: ENV.SCENE.
I haven’t quite figured out if it does anything special yet, but my hunch is it might be part of an upcoming update for the Devs’ hidden puzzles. Keep an eye out for that!
Hope this guide comes in handy for you! Happy gaming!
