How to find and solve the Cloud Atlas Puzzle in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

The Cloud Atlas puzzle is found in the Meteorological Station, which is located at the center of the Gizeh map. Look for a small tent within the station, which contains the puzzle. Inside the tent, you will find two crucial documents: the Cloud Atlas Page and the Cloud Status Logbook. These will provide the information needed to crack the combination lock on the nearby lockbox.

To solve the puzzle, you must carefully look at the two documents in the tent. The Cloud Atlas Page lists various cloud classifications, each assigned a number from 0 to 9.

These classifications are essential for decoding the cloud names found in the second document, the Cloud Status Logbook, which records times of day and the associated clouds. Together, these two documents will help you crack the box's code.

On the Cloud Atlas Page, you’ll notice a note at the bottom left with four times:

• 13.10
• 09.10
• 16.10
• 14.10

While some of these times are clear, the entries for 15.10 and 16.10 are smudged. To complete the sequence, you must use the Cloud Status Logbook to identify the clouds for each time and then match them to their corresponding numbers using the Cloud Atlas Page.

Cloud Analysis:

• 13.10 → Cirrus (0)
• 09.10 → Stratus (6)
• 16.10 → Cirrus (0)
• 14.10 → Cumulonimbus (9)

Translating the clouds into numbers in the given order will reveal the combination: 0609.

Once you’ve got the code, return to the lockbox in the tent and input 0609 into the combination lock. This will unlock the box and complete the puzzle.

Inside the lockbox, you’ll find the Gizeh Medicine Exploration Guidebook, which will mark the location of every medicine bottle in the Gizeh chapter. These medicine bottles can provide a way to permanently increase Indiana Jones’ health and stamina when at the local medic vendor.
