“A Challenge” Enigma is a puzzle located in the Abbasiyah district in Assassin’s Creed Mirage. Enigmas are two-part puzzles scattered around the area of Baghdad. The first part generally requires finding a collectible that will lead you to the second part, which is the treasure, like a dye or a talisman. You cannot head straight to the treasure. You must find the collectible before you can collect the treasure.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage is not quite as vast as the previous three instalments in the Assassin’s Creed franchise – Origins, Odyssey & Valhalla. If you are a huge fan of the previous games in the series, this will feel like a scaled-down version of a prior instalment. It gets rid of the expansive open worlds and RPG-like elements. However, the game still does consist of quite a bit of side content, such as the Enigma challenges.

Location of the Challenge

To get started on the enigma challenge, head on over to the Abbasiyah district. The enigma can be found as you head towards the southeast from the House of Wisdom. You will notice a bridge near this location. Look for the balcony situated right next to a massive tree. Climb up the balcony to find a parchment containing a riddle, the enigma you are looking for.

Solution & Location of the Treasure

The parchment on the balcony challenges you to find a hidden treasure. The words in the riddle allude to a location where a water wheel is situated. Some lines also refer to an object being taken down so a scribe could write on it. The parchment also talks about a place located eastwards of a spot where people observe. This information cites a building that produces paper with a water wheel. This building is located east of the observatory.

Once you have located the building, take a look behind the aforementioned water wheel. You will notice a barred window. This can be opened with Basim’s throwing knife. After destroying the barrier, head into the building and grab the treasure. You will be rewarded with the Black Rostam outfit dye for completing the challenge. You can equip this item at any time from your inventory.
