When you first enter St. Mystere and reach the Entrance, speak to Ingrid on the left side of the screen. She will introduce the concept of picarats and ask you to solve puzzle 003 – Strange Hats.

Puzzle 003 is worth 10 picarats.
How to solve Puzzle 003?
Puzzle 003 tasks you with identifying which hat from a selection of 4 has a brim that is the same length and the hat itself.
These four top hats are all the same height, but the length of each brim is different. In other words, the hats are equally tall but vary in width.
One of these four hats has a brim and height that are the same length. Which hat is it?
The white band across the base of the hat makes this one a little trickier to see straight away.
The best approach to begin with for this puzzle is to rule out the hats with the brims that you know will definitely be too long.
At the very least, this should leave you with a 50/50 chance at guessing the correct one.
What are the hints for Puzzle 003?
Hint 1
Don’t just pick an answer based on what you see on the screen.
If this puzzle could be solved with a quick glance at the screen, it wouldn’t be much of a puzzle, now would it?
The human eye perceives vertical and horizontal length differently.
Hint 2
B is certainly not the hat you are looking for.
Hint 3
D isn’t the right hat either.
Puzzle 003 Answer
The correct hat is Hat A.
You can eliminate hat D almost instantly as it’s almost comically over-sized. Depending on how you perceive C and B, you’ll be able to tell that either B is too small, or C is too large.
Whichever you’re able to eliminate, you’re left with a 50/50 choice. From there you could have either guessed or spent more time looking closer until you reach a conclusion you’re satisfied with.
