The Assassin's Creed: Mirage 'Left Behind Enigma' location is easy enough to find, with it being one of the first collectibles you'll likely come across in the game, but the solution to the Enigma will likely leave you scratching your head.

Assassin's Creed: Mirage has various types of collectibles for players to sink their teeth into, ranging from standard Gear Chests to pickpocketing collectibles like Dervis' Artifacts. One of the more engaging collectibles in the game is the Enigmas, which are letters or maps you need to solve to find the location of treasures like dyes or talismans.

If you are struggling to find and solve the 'Left Behind Enigma' in Assassin's Creed: Mirage, then check out our detailed walkthrough of how to find the treasure below.

To find the 'Left Behind Enigma' in Assassin's Creed: Mirage, you will need to head to a two-story building to the south of the Metal Factory, which is next to the Qutrabbul Gate in the Harbiyah region. The exact location is marked on the map above.

When you arrive at the building, there is no obvious way inside due to the locked doors on the second floor. However, you can gain entry by interacting with and knocking down the scaffolding covering a window.

After removing the scaffolding, you can enter the building. The 'Left Behind Enigma' can then be found next to a dead body.

The treasure for the 'Left Behind Enigma' in Assassin's Creed: Mirage can be found directly to the west of Baghdad in the Abandoned Village (marked on the map above). 

The 'Left Behind Enigma' is a crudely drawn map that looks to have been made by a child. The most notable hint on the map is the red lion drawn on the right side; this is because the Abandoned Village has been overrun by big cats. 

Once you arrive at the Abandoned Village itself, you'll want to travel to its south and take the road that leads west down to the beach. Also, be careful to hide from the big cats around here unless you want a fight.

After arriving at the beach, you can find the treasure spot just in front of the stone hut, next to some fish drying on a rack. The reward for solving the 'Left Behind Enigma' in Assassin's Creed: Mirage is the Horned Lion Talisman

That's all for our breakdown of the Assassin's Creed: Mirage 'Left Behind Enigma' location and solution, and now you know all the necessary steps to grab your new talisman.
