I'm really loving this game, but I feel like I have a serious case of the dumb regarding the locked room. I read the note in the room that you can go into on the final day, and I have looked at the drawings around the ship and I think I know what to do but it's not doing it. Am I thinking too much with A=1, B=2...? So to 'type' the word 'example' I'd need to score '5 24 1 13 16 12 5'? And if so, do I need to make sure to not 'misspell' the word using the inputs?
Yo, thanks man! No you're not dumb, in fact you're most of the way there. A is 1, B is 2, and so forth like you said. The key is the line "as day subsides to darker day", so basically each day on the ship you need to score only one letter of the key word. There are seven days, so one letter per day. Let me know if this helps. Sorry, I'm not an expert puzzle maker lol
thank you again. the locked room is so worth it and it has pushed this game to the forefront of favorite games I've played. I'm trying to convince all my friends to pick this up. Such a well made, thoughtful game! And I love that the locked room reward lets me know that as of now 21 other people have entered the locked room. Super cool!
