The Pied Piper Easter egg in Black Ops 7 hides neat rewards and a short story payoff. It asks players to look, listen, and act in a set order. If you want low pressure practice, run it first in the CoD BO7 Bot Lobby. That lets you learn the steps and try them again without losing gear or getting wiped in live play.
The Mansion POI — find the fuse and start the hunt
Start inside the Mansion POI. Move through sheds, garages, and junk piles until you spot a small metal shine. That is the fuse. Pick it up and go back to the shed that is marked on the map with a red X. Place the fuse in the holder inside the shed. The fuse turns on the next part of the event. After you place it, the game will let you trigger a string of mousetraps. Aim for traps with a cheese marker and shoot them in the order you find them. Each trap that pops moves you one step closer to the courtyard puzzle. Keep calm and move slowly so you do not miss a trap.
Courtyard music panels — play the tune
When the mousetraps are done, go to the courtyard. You will see a set of panels that look like piano keys or big tiles. These panels make notes when you press them. The map wants you to play a short, known melody. The tune follows a simple nursery rhyme pattern like “Three Blind Mice” or an old folk melody. Use the panels in that exact order. If the notes match, the ground will shift and open a hidden door.
Practical tips — what trips players up
Work with a teammate or with bots and call out what you see. One player should watch for the fuse and traps while another keeps an eye on the courtyard. Save your game state when the fuse is placed if the match type allows it, so you can reset a failed run fast. Bring an EMP or crowd-control tool if the area spawns small fast enemies during the music step; those enemies can break your timing. Keep your best weapons packed away until you finish the lab so you do not waste rare ammo on small threats.
What the secret lab gives you
When the panels work, a hidden lab appears under the courtyard. Enter to collect the rewards. The lab often holds premium loot such as a weapon blueprint, a rare operator skin tied to the “Red Planet” aesthetic, and a short burst of gas protection gear that helps in later rounds. The lab can also hide small story items or notes that expand the map’s lore. Search every shelf and corner — the designers tuck items in odd places.
Practice runs and final play advice
Run the full sequence in the cheap CoD BO7 Bot Lobbies before you try it in a public match. The bot lobby gives you time to test the panel order, the mousetrap timing, and the best route between spawn points. Start with Veteran bot difficulty to match the pace of a real game. Once you feel steady, take the steps into a live lobby with friends and keep one person focused on timing and one on enemy cleanup. That split of jobs makes the whole run smoother.
