During Disney Dreamlight Valley: The Rift in Time’s final act, you’ll enter Jafar’s palace and find him at the center of a plot to take over the world. While this primarily involves the Palace of Time quest, you’ll also find Jafar’s Laboratory, where you’ll take on multiple tricky puzzles.
Disney Dreamlight Valley Jafar’s Laboratory quest guide
The Jafar’s Laboratory quest starts immediately after you enter Jafar’s throne room during Rift in Time’s final act. As you approach the throne, ascend the left staircase, and proceed down the hall, you’ll eventually enter the lab room. Your goal here is to find a golden key to unlock the chains separating you from Jafar.
We can break the Jafar’s Laboratory quest up into three main parts:
- Feed the raven
- Solve the mirror puzzle
- Claim the golden key
Feed the raven some bird food
When you enter the laboratory for the first time, you’ll notice another mirror and hourglass puzzle, alongside a raised platform with a raven flying around. Talking to the raven reveals that it knows where the key is but is too hungry to tell you more information. It’s time to make some bird food.
By reading the nearby lab book entry, you’ll learn that the recipe requires fresh vegetables and rotten seafood. You’ll also find a table with ingredients, but upon closer inspection, you’ll see that they’re all ripe. Take the ripe tomato and carrot from this table before exiting the menu.
With the tomato and carrot on hand, use the hourglass on this raised platform to convert everything on the table to their rotten variants. Now, you’ll have the rotten clam and fish needed for the second half of the recipe. With all four items in your inventory, head to the nearby cauldron and toss them in to create bird food.
After making the bird food, return to the raven to receive a power coil. While this isn’t the key to unlocking the chains in the throne room, it’s a crucial item for finishing the puzzle below you. Head down the stairs to start.
Solve the mirror puzzle
Now that you have the power coil, we can focus on the laboratory’s main puzzle. Insert the power coil into the nearby machine to give it energy, allowing you to rotate the stone panels and mirror. Flip the hourglass to see this happen before turning the stones until the line reaches the mirror.
From here, rotate the mirror until the reflective side lines up with the button next to the blue door. While it won’t power on immediately, flipping the hourglass once more will cause the light to shoot toward the button, clearing away the blue mist and revealing the golden key on the other side.
With Jafar’s golden sky on hand, you can now leave the laboratory, unlock the chains, and confront Jafar as part of The Palace of Time’s overarching story.
