Unlocking Temperance: Cracking the Receiver Code in Raft

The burning question on every Raft survivor’s mind as they approach the icy shores of Temperance: What is the code for the Temperance receiver? The answer is: The Temperance code is not static; it’s randomized for each player. This means you can’t simply Google the code and waltz right in. You’ll need to solve the Observatory Puzzle to get your unique code. Read on to learn everything you need to know about finding it!

Navigating the Frozen Wasteland: Temperance and its Secrets

Temperance is a pivotal location in Raft’s storyline, acting as the gateway to the game’s grand finale. This snow-covered island holds vital clues and resources needed to complete your journey. However, accessing these resources requires navigating a complex environment and solving several intricate puzzles. One of the most crucial steps is obtaining the code needed to advance.

Decoding the Temperance Receiver: The Observatory Puzzle

Forget scouring forums for a magic number; the Temperance code is a reward for intellectual prowess. It involves celestial navigation, some pattern recognition, and a touch of old-fashioned puzzle-solving. Here’s a breakdown:

1. Find the Notes: Scattered around Temperance, specifically near the Observatory entrance, are notes related to constellations. The first note is typically located on the fence outside the Observatory. These notes are crucial, as they provide the keys to understanding the puzzle.

2. Enter the Observatory: Make your way inside the Observatory.

3. The Telescope Puzzle: Inside the Observatory, you will find a telescope with a screen, where you will engage in the constellation puzzle. You’ll see a series of constellations displayed on the screen.

4. Interpreting the Constellations: The constellations on the screen must be aligned according to the notes you found. Each constellation represents a number.

5. The Final Code: Once you have correctly identified the constellations and their corresponding numbers, you will have your four-digit code. This is the code you will input into the Receiver.

6. Input the Code: Return to your Raft and use the Receiver to input the four-digit code. If you’ve correctly solved the puzzle, you’ll unlock the next location in the story.

Consequences of Wrong Guesses

It is not possible to enter this code into the receiver. The receiver requires a six digit code for the next location. The four digit code, once discovered by solving the Observatory Puzzle, allows one to progress in the game toward obtaining the parts required to find the next receiver code for the next location.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Are Raft codes completely random?

Yes, the four-digit codes you find in the world of Raft are randomized from player to player. This adds an element of discovery and prevents simple solutions from being shared. The Vasagatan, Radio Tower, and Balboa Island are examples of locations where you’ll find unique, randomized codes for the Receiver.

2. How do I get new raft codes?

You obtain new codes by exploring story locations and solving the puzzles within them. Check your journal (“T” key) for hints and objectives. Each location, such as the Radio Tower, the Vasagatan, and Balboa Island, holds a unique code that advances the narrative.

3. What is the safe code in Temperance?

The safe code in Temperance is 5964. Inside the safe, you will find the Selene key, three tokens, and the blueprint for an advanced stationary anchor. This safe is not connected to the Receiver code puzzle.

4. Where is the first note in Temperance Raft?

The first note is usually located on the fence outside the Observatory, pinned against the center. This note provides vital clues for solving the constellation puzzle inside the Observatory.

5. Is Temperance the last island in Raft?

No, Temperance is not the last island, but it’s close. It is the seventh story island in Raft, and it’s the last stop on the way to the game’s final destination, Utopia.

6. What do I do after Temperance in Raft?

After Temperance, you’ll be heading to the final location: Utopia. Prepare for a challenging journey and a significant fight! Ensure you are well-equipped with resources and upgrades before embarking.

7. What does the Selene Key unlock in Raft?

The Selene Key unlocks a cryo chamber containing a playable character named Shogo. You’ll find this cryo chamber by navigating through Temperance, ultimately locating the Observatory.

8. Where can I find Detto’s codes in Raft?

Detto’s codes are scattered around specific locations that you need to dig up. Outside the workshop, you’ll find a note on the table, a shovel, and a map pinned to the wall. Find the corresponding dirt mounds marked on the map and dig them up to reveal pieces of the code.

9. Are there any secret islands in Raft?

Yes, there are two small, Rare Islands with special items. Whenever a tropical biome island spawns, there’s a 2% chance it will be one of these rare islands. One of the islands is called Shipwreck Island.

10. Can you reach the ocean floor in Raft?

Yes, you can reach the ocean floor by swimming straight down from your raft. However, it is a barren area with no scavengeable items or unique enemies. Be prepared for a long, dark dive.

11. Do you need 3 antennas for Raft?

Yes, you need three antennas for the Receiver to function correctly. The Receiver must be placed at least one full floor above Foundation level, and all three Antennas must be placed on the same floor as the Receiver, or one half level above or below.

12. What is the car jack used for in Raft?

The Car Jack is assembled from Mechanical Components found in and around the Vasagatan. It is used to move a metal cabinet blocking the entrance to a room on the third floor from the top.

13. Is Raft game finished?

Yes, Raft is a finished game. It came out of early access on June 20, 2022, with the release of its final chapter.

14. Where is the secret basement in Raft?

The Secret Basement is a hidden location on Tangaroa. It is accessed through the Plantation Area under the city. Take the elevator and select the floor panel on the right to reach it.

15. Is Raft map infinite?

The Raft world can be described as a flat plane, on which the player drifts endlessly. So in practice, yes the Raft world is essentially infinite.

Mastering Raft: Tips and Strategies

• Exploration is Key: Thoroughly explore each island, leaving no stone unturned. Hidden notes, resources, and blueprints are often tucked away in corners.

• Resource Management: Carefully manage your resources. Raft is a survival game, and scarcity is a constant challenge. Plan your crafting and building accordingly.

• Stay Alert: The ocean is a dangerous place. Watch out for sharks and other threats.

• Teamwork: If playing with friends, coordinate your efforts. Assign tasks and communicate effectively.

The Educational Value of Raft

Beyond the survival gameplay, Raft subtly incorporates educational elements. Players learn about resource management, basic engineering principles, and problem-solving skills. The puzzles and challenges encourage critical thinking and spatial reasoning. The Games Learning Society recognizes the value of games like Raft in fostering these skills, bridging the gap between entertainment and education.
