  • Click everything that looks distinct!
  • Inspect all items in your inventory carefully (and perhaps they need to be clicked, too)
  • Screens where you're zoomed in—wherein you can't move left, right, or up—almost always have importance.
  • Holding/Equipping items can activate other parts of a puzzle. If an item seems connected to a puzzle, hold it!
  • The color square puzzle is on its own - it's not related to anything else in the escape room.

okay, I'm stuck in the puzzle, any hint for use of the hook?

Developer

Try draining the packing peanuts - the notebook isn't just for the movement puzzle you completed.

bro can u just tell Me the damn code this escape room is really annoying .

Developer

It's random for every person, but at the start of the room you can just skip the Escape Room altogether—you don't really miss out on all that much (a few pics in the album).

alright then, btw love your work, wish I could get more days mine stop's at day 13 , we hope to see more of ur work and thanks for the fast reply

lol

Hey man I really love the game so far but any hints on what to do with the coins? 

Developer

Look carefully at the left table from the entrance.

Escaperoom.... Aaaaaarrrrrghh! 

Is there a specific order in which to solve the room or can can I solve each puzzle in any order
I've got 6 items (won't say which ones so not to spoil the  game) 

Notebook?? Movementpuzzle??

More hints pls! :) 

Developer

Did you solve the movement puzzle? That's not the only clue the notebook has.

What other items have you not found a use for?

(+1)

Thank you! That helped!

Managed to figure out the movementpuzzle and after that it was a little bit of pixelhunting to get the hook... But I got it and also managed to finish the rest of the escaperoom. 

I only have one little issue with the keypad where i had 3 digits in correct order yet I couldn't "brute force" the code. you actually NEED to find all 4 notes to be able to "win" and get out of the escaperoom. Then again... we're in Paige's mind so it's all good! ;)

Now I'm stuck with the bonus puzzle, the colored squares one and it's a brainkiller for me... :(
I really hope you get some more numbers I can use to unlock Paige in the laptop gui. You know the "?" button that takes you to a picture of Paige with an interface where you can input a 4 digit pincode... I assume that may unlock Paige's memoryblocks.

Anyways, thanks again for this extremely witty VN! Thumbs Up!

Where do we start the Movement Puzzle?

I can't figure out the whole movement puzzle. Just the first part to get to the backpack.  I assume there is more since there are many more directions.  It's killing me, because I don't want to give up.  Any hints would be helpful.

This game is fantastic.  Excellent job, Wildman Dev!

Developer(+1)

The movement puzzle starts at the red square, make sure you've clicked it and have the notebook equipped. Once you look up from it, the directions/puzzle begin.

Got it! Thanks! Found the walkthrough you posted in another forum.
Your game is fantastic! It's laugh-out-loud funny.  I'm trying to figure out how to support you without Patreon showing up on my cc bill (even with Paypal)...

First off, love the game. Literally created an account for this lol, but i'm stuck on figuring out how to reach the safebox on top of the weird containers. 

Developer

You need a stepladder. Examine the barrels more carefully, they might help you open something.

u talking about blue barrels right?

Developer

Yeah.

so I got step ladder I get lockbox but only looking from main room 

Absolutely love the game but this escape room is doing my head in

You mention about a notebook but have not found that so rather stuck

Developer

Look closely at the bookcase.

Hi.

Thanks for that finally found that

Thanks

My inventory is missing one item - the hook. I cannot seem to find it. A little hint would be appreciated.

Developer

The spacesuit can be opened.

I'm literally stuck in this same place and can't seem to get access to the spacesuit no matter what I equip or click on. It may be due to playing on my phone and fingers are too big to click? (e.g., I had a lot of trouble picking up the notebook)


Any tips would be appreciated 

Developer

The spacesuit is accessed via the movement puzzle in the notebook - that is, the TL, TR bit found within it. Have you done that?

I thought I had, but now I realize I didn't. Thanks! This game is fantastic btw

(-3)

What is the tlr? or whatever? some kind of russion spy word for something? Speak fucking english. stop trying to green gas us or how the kids say it. everyone has the keys, the notebook, the ladder, the hammer, but how the fuck do we get a tlr? wth are you even talking about?!

Developer(+1)

There's no need for hostility.

TL means Turn left. 

TR means Turn Right.

U means Up.

D means Down.

These instructions can be found within the notebook.

I am facing the 2 Green  1Red, I do TR TR D then U then the only option is D so I am stuck

Developer

Start from looking down at the green square at the entrance.

i see a red square on the floor no green

Developer

Look back at the entrance from afar, click the red square, then hold the notebook and look down when you're standing under it.

Is there any tips you can give for the extra color puzzle. I'm completely lost on it lol. 

Developer

Not much I can think to say... a few of the clues are almost standalone, meaning they don't need other clues' context. Finding those ones helps with the others.

Thanks for the reply. I'm probably just overthinking it. It's a common problem with me. 😂😂😂

"All 6 colors are present."
"There are 5 colors in the first row."
"Pink only appears on the bottom row."
"Red and Pink are in the corners of the\nsame row."

These four are a good place to start, if this helps.

Deleted 1 year ago

Pink only appears in the top row for me??? How does this change the puzzle?

Theres no feedback or interaction how am I supposed tp know if Im doing the puzzle correctly or not?

Developer

It becomes interactable once you finish the escape room - rather than exiting it take a left.

After a shamefully long time (during which I tried to brute force the code, twice), I finally got to the color part, and let me tell ya. This part. I cannot for the life of me get it all the rules to mesh together. I think I've got it worked out, for the most part, but that one of there are only two colors that appear once or whatever always trips me up. *Edit* yeah, after scrolling through the other replies, which I probably should have done from the get-go, I found that guy who posts a pic and answers it. I would have never gotten that. I was thinking mirrored like there's a collum on the left side and a collum on the right. Anyways, awesome game.

dang, you make a great escape room inside a great game.  I'm stuck on the third digit though, im guessing its under the peanuts but not sure how to get to the buttons.  I see the other clue at the bottom of the notebook but not sure where that is referring to, I've solved the movement puzzle but didn't see anything with those colors.

Developer

Make sure you have the notebook equipped and have clicked that clue at the bottom of it, then look around the spacesuit/garbage bins. 

(-1)

man I could have sworn I tapped there.  Hey got it though. Thanks for the help, and thanks for the awesome game!

Hello,

I am missing the screwdriver. I have already six items but I cannot find it.

Any clue ?

Thanks.

(+1)

try the hint he gave me, thats where I was stuck too.

Thanks for your help. It's still the same. However I didn't solve the movement puzzle. That may be the reason why I am stuck.

I will try to solve it then try again.

(1 edit)

i still cant find the screw driver..... nevermind..... found it....

I am still not having found it. I found some other things with other items but don’t know how to look to find it. I assume it may be nearby the place I need to use it but maybe it’s too dark in my house .

Developer

The screwdriver requires the notebook secondary puzzle (the bottom text) to be solved - make sure you've clicked that text, and also make sure you're holding the notebook when exploring around.

Thank you for the help.

I tried to solve the movement puzzle (with the notebook equiped) on the color squares but it didn't react if I click on one of them (is it supposed to react ?).

I don't know what D means on the notebook if you had a clue.

Developer

The color squares are unconnected to the rest of the escape room puzzles. The color squares are a bonus puzzle.

D means Down. TL means Turn Left. Near the entrance, make sure you've clicked the red square.

(1 edit) (+1)

I found it and figured the importance of the sentence on the notebook. I was saerching withthe colors squares but it was in plain sight in one of the room.

Thank you for your help. I am continuing to try to find the exit of the escape room.

Hello again,

I am not a native english speaker so I am not familiar with abbreviations, sorry for that.

I don't figure out what U means: You, U-turn ?

Thank you.

Quick update: since D is for Down, U must be for Up ?

Developer

Yes. I'll be more spoilery for you here: If you've clicked the red square on the ground (near the entrance), make sure you have your notebook equipped and then you can look down at it. It'll turn green. Once you get off that screen, begin the sequence in the notebook. U, TR, whatever the order.

I have finally made it with the Up thing. The rest went easy after that.

Thank you again for your help, I am out of the escape room !

So, is there a guide with all the answers and what to do? I suck at Escape Room stuff. 

also, maybe it's a part of my problem but since I entered the Escape Room game there seems to be a delayed reaction when clicking on certain things. Is my laptop just crap or?

Developer

Hard to say, though I haven't heard too many people talk about any delays.

There is a walkthrough but I don't think I'm allowed to post the website? You can safely click the "Give up" text near the entrance if doing the escape room doesn't interest you, the only thing you'll miss is a few optional bonus pics.

Oh good! I found some answers but I was still struggling with others. Thanks for the quick reply

(1 edit)

Ive found 3 of 4 numbers required. I got the coins, and the adjoining number, I got the fishing rod and hook, and the adjoining number and the number on the two green one red. I cant for the life of me find the last number. Only digit Im missing is the second digit.

Developer

Have you searched the trashcans closely and found anything? Then, from the barrels looking towards the bookcase, did you find anything particular about that screen? I think this is the step you're missing.

Ive found the notebook but nothing else on the bookcase. I have the clue off the cans and the rod. 

Biscuits and Gravy I found it.

Click the notebook's bottom clue then go to where it points

(1 edit)

I can't for the life of me figure out what to do with the colour problem next to the lockers

any help would be appreciated thanks

Developer

It's for after you solve the Escape Room and open the gate. Before leaving, go left instead of exiting.

(1 edit)

thanks

please help I’m only missing the 2nd digit. Plus I searched the trash boxes and found nothing, do I have to equip an Item while searching because I’m missing one item. Please any tip

Developer

One of the garbage bins has an object you can loot, maybe you already looted it?

From the barrels section looking towards the bookcase - there's something to click, did you spot it?

yes it worked thank you, I didn’t spot the chest at first

I'm only missing the fourth digit, any clues?

Developer

Did you use the stepladder to open a lockbox?

If so, did you use what you found inside the lockbox? Look around a table at the beginning of the escape room.

I did not find any stepladder. Where do I have to search?

Developer

Check the barrels very closely for a clue.

The thing in the plug, but it was one of the first things I found and cannot remember it well

Developer

Make your way to the lockers near the exit - you don't need to remember a pattern or anything.

I'm in front of the lockers bit nothing seems off. What now?

Developer

One of the doors should be openable, if not, did you check the tire earlier in the first area?

Deleted 1 year ago

I did check the tire and found the key, first item I got. Am I missing something or is it possible that I bugged the game somehow?

Developer

The key + clue from the barrels will make one of the doors among the lockers clickable/openable. Make sure you have the key equipped.

I'm honestly stumped by this escape room. I have the first, second, and fourth digits. I need the third. I have all items except one. I feel like I've tapped and explored everything that can be. I'm obviously missing something. Any tips

Developer(-1)

Have you found the screwdriver? You need to click the bottom clue in your notebook and then go where it leads. If so, have you used the hammer?

(2 edits)

I've used the screwdriver and the hammer. I lied, I think I've gotten all of the items. I swear I am not developmentally disabled. 

Developer

Inspect the train cart in the back with an item that you've combined.

(1 edit)

i have used the screwdriver but not the hammer, what and where can i use it?? Im also only missing the 3rd number and one item but i dont know what to do

Developer

If you've completed the movement puzzle (TL, U, TR) in the notebook, inspect the spacesuit more closely with the hammer equipped.

okay thx im done with it, i just cant seem to get the colour combination right for the last puzzle, maybe its bc its 4 am and i aint thinking straight, cause there is many clues there and my brain aint reaching it xD if u wanna give any help id apriciatte it, if not its alright ill try tomorrow morning xD great game btw keep it up

Developer

These clues are connected and help answer the rest of it.

"All 6 colors are present."
"Pink only appears on the bottom row."
"There are 5 colors in the first row."
"Red and Pink are in the corners of the same row."

I'm happy to give more direct help if you want, but it'll all fall together through process of elimination once you get a few pieces in place.

these is killing me, the only clue i cant put together is the mirrored one, might u give me some advice on that one? Perhaps in which position the mirrored ones have/can be? Much appreciated 

finally managed to complete it, way easier than i made it out to be xD ty for the help

(+2)

How did you solve the colors?
