How to Solve the Gas Puzzle in Poppy Playtime Chapter 4
How to Beat The Gas Puzzle in Poppy Playtime Chapter 4
Poppy Playtime Chapter 4 doesn’t hold back when it comes to throwing tricky puzzles at players, and the gas puzzle inside the factory is one that’ll have you running in circles if you don’t know what you’re doing.
But don’t sweat it—I’ve got you covered with a step-by-step guide to get this puzzle sorted so you can keep moving forward without losing your mind.
Understanding the Puzzle Layout
If you’re facing away from the computer room at the end of the hall, you’ll be dealing with three different sections of gas pipes that control the flow:
Section A (left of the computer room)
Section B (directly across from the computer room)
Section C (right side of the computer room)
Your goal is to adjust the levers in each section correctly to unlock the path forward. Easy enough, right? Well… not really, unless you’ve got this guide handy.
Lever Placement Guide
Section A (Left from the Computer Room):
Lever 1: Point it up
Lever 2: Point it to the side
Section B (Across from the Computer Room):
Lever 1: Point it to the side
Lever 2: Point it up
Lever 3: Point it up
Section C (Right from the Computer Room):
Lever 1: Point it to the side
Lever 2: Point it to the side
Lever 3: Point it to the side
Lever 4: Point it to the side
Once all the levers are set to their correct positions, you should hear the hissing of the gas flow stabilizing and see the confirmation light near the control panel turn green.
Congrats—you’re one step closer to survival!
Lever Placement Guide
This puzzle isn’t just about pulling levers randomly and hoping for the best—there’s some strategy to it. Here’s how to make your life easier:
Don’t Waste Time Guessing – If you go in blind, you’ll waste a ton of time running back and forth. Stick to the plan, move systematically from Section A to Section C clockwise around the room, and you’ll save yourself the headache.
Watch for Clues – The game subtly hints that you can stack the gas up to two times in a poster around the puzzle room. If you’re trying to figure it out on your own, these really help give you a foundation for understanding the changing gas colors.
Fix Fast When You Finish the Gas – After you finish the gas puzzle, you are prompted to quickly fix the door behind the computer, but you’re on a time limit. Finish this quickly by grabbing the gear out of the locker behind you, then running out the opposite door you came in from and reaching the gear placement above the computer room with your grabber. Then book it down the hall.
A Satisfying Puzzle
This puzzle might not be the hardest thing in the world, but without a guide, it can definitely mess with your head. Hopefully, this breakdown makes your playthrough a little less painful and gets you past the gas puzzle without too much backtracking.
Poppy Playtime Chapter 4 has been an absolute blast, and this was just one of many intense moments. When you get to the final boss (without giving any spoilers away), we have a full guide on how to beat Poppy Playtime Chapter 4’s final boss with the full ending as well!

Now, get back in there and show that puzzle who’s boss. And remember, when in doubt, always look for the funsies in the frustration—it makes the victory even more funderful.
