The Bulls of Blood Mystery guide

The Bulls of Blood Mystery can be found in the Castel Sant Angelo section prior to entering the Vatican City. Stick to the ground floor of the guarded compound and you’ll find it in the northeast corner of the map, close to the Angel courtyard. On the desk in this room you’ll find a card showing twin bulls and the Angel Courtyard Map, a hand-drawn map pointing to this room.

To solve the mystery, all you need to do is turn to the north from this desk, where you’ll see two bull paintings either side of a suspiciously door-shaped segment of wall. Approach the edges of each painting and you should see a prompt to interact. Indy will grab the painting and be able to rotate it.

You must rotate each painting 180 degrees such that the two black bulls are now at the top and facing one another. Once done, a door segment in the middle will open to a secret chamber.

Inside the Bulls of Blood Mystery room you’ll find a renaissance letter to collect and a path upwards to a lever that opens another secret door to the next section of the level.

Congrats on solving the Bulls of Blood Mystery in Indiana Jones and The Great Circle! But be warned, this is definitely one of the easier puzzles the game has prepared for you.
