Introduction to the Halloween Spotlight Event
The Roblox Armless Detective Halloween event for 2025 brings a self-contained mystery called the Curse Cathedral quest. Unlike typical cases, this one focuses on puzzle-solving and exploration to earn its unique rewards. Your goal is to complete the quest to get the Armless Detective Rune Badge, and then tackle an additional challenge to earn the Armless Detective Key Badge.
Step 1: Getting the Rune Badge
The Rune Badge is your first major objective. Follow these steps carefully to solve the Curse Cathedral quest.
Starting the Quest
Head to the Curse Cathedral to begin your investigation. Your trusty gadgets will be essential for navigating the challenges ahead.
Solving the Magnet Ball Puzzle
Your first major obstacle is a magnet ball puzzle. You will find this on the yellow and blue path.
Use your Magnet Gadget to manipulate the metal ball through the course.
The key tip is to be patient. If the ball gets stuck, use the magnet to guide it without lifting it directly, as this can sometimes reset the puzzle.
Collecting the Three Pieces of Evidence
After the puzzle, you need to find three pieces of evidence. The clues you get can vary, but here are the common possibilities:
Aggressive Ghost: Use your UV Light to reveal and interact with an aggressive ghostly presence.
Grave Robbing Case: Use the Shovel to dig in a specific area of the graveyard to uncover evidence of theft.
Hidden Clues: Search bushes and walls using your Magnet and UV Light to find hidden objects or messages.
Completing the Mirror Puzzle
Once you have the evidence, you will encounter a mirror and reflector puzzle.
Your goal is to rotate the reflectors so that a beam of light travels from its source and hits a gemstone.
After aligning the light path, use the Magnifying Glass on the gem to activate it, causing it to glow.
Solving the Case and Earning the Badge
With all three pieces of evidence collected:
Open your journal.
Combine all the clues you’ve gathered.
Correctly identify the suspect based on the evidence.
Upon successfully closing the case, you will be rewarded with the Rune Badge.
Step 2: Getting the Key Badge
After earning the Rune Badge, you can proceed to the more challenging part of the event to obtain the Key Badge.
Re-enter the Curse Cathedral Solo
You must replay the Curse Cathedral quest solo. This time, keep an eye out for new interactive elements.
Finding the Hidden Statue and Button
As you progress through the solo playthrough, you will discover a new area featuring a statue.
Use your Magnet Gadget on this statue to reveal a hidden button. Activating it will trigger the next phase of the mission.
Completing the Investigation (Again)
Just like before, you must complete the investigation by gathering evidence and correctly identifying the suspect. This is a repeat of the process but is necessary to access the final challenge.
Beating the Halloween Mini-Game
The final hurdle is a special Halloween-themed mini-game.
You will ride a skateboard down a track.
Press the correct buttons as they appear on the screen to maintain your balance and speed.
Crucially, you must avoid falling into holes on the track.
Use the checkpoints to your advantage. If you fail, you will restart from the last checkpoint you passed.
Once you successfully cross the finish line, the Key Badge will be automatically awarded to you.
