After pressing "Use" on the bomb, L20S3 will load up a sequence where you need to defuse the bomb by guessing the combination of button presses. On PlayStation, the bomb inputs are the face buttons ( X , ◯ , △ , ◻ ). On PC or Mac you input the combination using the arrow keys or clicking on the symbols on the screen. Once you figure out the four entry combination, a panel will open below revealing a second input screen requiring six inputs. On PC this level locks the player out from opening the console menu or opening the menu to save but on the PlayStation version you're still able to pause and open the menu (but not save).

Fortunately for us, Masako didn't think to implement a lockout or automatic detonation so you're free to try combinations as many times as you can within the time limit. The time limit to defuse the bomb is different depending on which difficulty you chose.

Difficulty	Approximate Time Limit (seconds)
Easy	63
Medium	47
Hard	41
Impossible	30

When you complete the sequence, the ending cutscene will start followed by the credits. Well done!
