Once you've acquired the final Keystone and opened up the door behind the Lymbic Forge, there is only one final puzzle to tackle: the Hell is Us Failsafe Orb puzzle. You'll have some moderately tough fights ahead, but you'll have plenty of items to help you in your final battle, too.

Just after the Lymbic Door, you'll find a room with four orbs and a scroll. These are:

  • Orb - Cobalt
  • Orb - Crimson
  • Orb - Emerald
  • Orb - Gold
  • Scroll - Failsafe

The four Orbs are used to solve the final puzzle, and the Scroll - Failsafe has clues on how you must use them.

Continue proceeding forward and you'll enter a massive room with four massive statues on one side and four massive statues on the other side. Each of these statues has a symbol above it corresponding to one of the symbols on the scroll.

As you may have noticed, each of the four Lymbic Spheres has an associated color. Rage is red, Ecstasy is yellow, Terror is green, and Grief is blue. Each of the orbs is similarly colored.

The solution for this puzzle is to put the orb of the correct color into the statue for its related Lymbic Sphere, using the symbols atop the statues to determine it.

This is the key info you need to solve the final puzzle in Hell is Us.

However, the area surrounding these statues is awash with Lymbic Entities, including four gigantic versions that effectively serve as miniboss fights. These gigantic Lymbic Entities are also Timeloop Guardians for the final Timeloop in the center of this room.

You must kill the four giants in order to access and collapse the Timeloop. When all four orbs are placed in the correct positions, they will simultaneously project a blue laser on a pedestal in the center of the room.

There is only one thing left to do — use your necklace on the pedestal. This will activate the failsafe and complete the game.
