Disney Dreamlight Valley has a lot of unique mysteries you’ll need to tackle, but Gameloft’s series of potato puzzles are easily the most confusing. One item you’ll need to unravel this mystery is the Purple Potato, which you can obtain after locating 10 different Experiment books scattered around the valley.

All Purple Experiment book locations for the talking portal in the Frosted Heights biome

Usually, assets players need to find around their valley spawn randomly, which means they appear in different locations for every player. But luckily, all of the Purple Experiment books appear in fixed locations, so every player can track them down to the same exact spots.

Players need to find all 10 books to then deliver a series of keywords to a strange talking portal sitting inside the cave where players recruited Olaf in the Frosted Heights biome. All 10 books are sitting in random and hard-to-find spots around the valley, so players who are struggling to find them might be seeking some help.

Each of the 10 books you find will give you a different keyword you will then need to use as an answer for the talking portal in the Frosted Heights biome, which is sitting in the cave you first found Olaf in.

  • I found one book inside Ursula’s cave on Dazzle Beach. This cave grants players the keyword “foraging.”

  • While you’re already on Dazzle Beach, head over to the left side of the pier to find the next book. This one contains the keyword “magic.”

  • Proceed over to the grand wooden stairs that lead out of the Dazzle Beach biome and into the Peaceful Meadow biome to find the next book. I found this book sitting on the second level of the stairs and this one features the word “dreams.”

  • Near the ramp that connects the Peaceful Meadow biome to the Glade of Trust biome, I found a book sitting behind the tree that is arched over the ramp. This book has “Higitus Figitus” written in it.

  • Head to the end of the river in the Sunlit Plateau biome where the waterfall is running down into the Glade of Trust biome. Here, you’ll find a book with the keyword “Fugu.”

  • In the southwest corner of the courtyard that contains the Plaza’s Wishing Well is where I found the next book. You will learn the keyword “book” from it.

  • Deep in the Vitalys Mines sits another one of the mysterious Experiment books. The mines don’t have a map, so I had a hard time finding this one and you may find that tracking this one down is tough. If you head to the very back area near where the shimmering water pool for the Blue Potato is, you will find this book and the keyword “raspberry.”

  • The final book players need to solve the portal puzzle is sitting in the Frosted Heights cave and features the word “crystal.” This is where players need to go after learning all the words, so this is the best book to find last so you don’t have to do too much wandering around the valley.
