Assassin's Creed Mirage enigma guide: How to solve Left Behind

Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Mirage veers away from the sprawling RPG-style gameplay championed by its three predecessors in the long-running stealth franchise. Its size and gameplay are considered a return to form, resembling the first few entries in the series. The game takes place in 9th-century Baghdad and puts players in control of Basim Ibn Ishaq.

While the setting is not quite as big compared to Valhalla or Odyssey, there are still plenty of things to do outside of the main quest. One of these side activities involves enigmas, which are coded messages that will lead Basim to a new outfit dye or talisman.

One of the enigmas to solve in the game is called "Left Behind." To locate it, head over to the Harbiyah region of the map. Specifically, travel south from the Metal Factory landmark.

There is a cluster of houses here. Look around until you find a sloped surface that leads to an open area between two houses. It will be easier if you use Enkidu after entering the area since it will cause the exact location of the enigma to show up on the map.

The building where it's located is inaccessible since the doors are barred, so walk around until you find some scaffolding that can be torn down. Once that's done, you can enter the building and find the enigma next to a corpse.
