The Old Safe is a puzzle in Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box. The puzzle must be solved in order to progress the story.

Puzzle

US Version

Find the four-number code that opens the safe. You can use the numbers zero through five in your answer, but each number can be used only once. The small lights next to each row of numbers are the key to finding the code, as they tell you how much in common that row has with the final code. Each white light indicates a number that matches one in the code but is in different place within the sequence. An orange light indicates a number that is in the code and in its correct spot. Tap the numbers at the bottom to enter the code.

UK Version

Find the four-digit code that opens the safe. You can use the digits 0 to 5 in your answer, but each digit can only be used once. The small lights next to each row of digits are the key to finding the code, as they tell you how much in common that row has with the code. A white light indicates a digit that is in the code but in a different place in the sequence. An orange light indicates a digit that is in the code and in the correct spot. Touch the digits at the bottom of the screen to change them, then touch Submit when you have your answer.

US Version

You may have already noticed, but every number in the code is in the very top row of numbers. Two of the numbers in 4150 are even in the correct spot relative to where they should be in the code.

US Version

Take a look at the third row of numbers.

You can see that two numbers math ones in the code and are in the correct position. Since you know the code uses 4, 1, 5, and 0, you can assume the 0 and 1 from this row are part of the code and in their appropriate spots.

Now just figure out where 4 and 5 go.
