That was Great!!
Amazing puzzle game. It was a tad on the short side, but I like how it really made you think. I managed to figure out all the solutions without too much of a problem, but some people had a lot of trouble. There were only two puzzles that had me stuck, but with a little attention to detail I was able to solve them -- the "peeper" puzzle, and the last puzzle.
I will give a short description of each puzzle, the solution to it, and how you come about it.
---WARNING -- SPOILERS BELOW---
Rooms 1-3 are tutorial, and very easy, so I won't cover them.
Room 4: This room contains a large gap in the center of the room and 5 buttons -- 4 on your side of the gap, and 1 that opens the door on the other side. You have to play around with the sequence a bit to get this one. Press the buttons in this order: 3, 4, 2, 1, 4, 3, 2, 4.
Room 5: There are 3 shapes on the floor that change color when stepped on. Examine the pattern above the door to the right to figure out the color scheme and mimic it on the floor. (Tip: Starting on the inside and going outward helps).
Room 6: There is a telescope in the center of the room. Look through it. You will be looking at a house. View the right window and you will see a man napping. Look away, then back again and the man will be looking at you through the window. Look away and back again and the word "PEEPER" will be written on the glass. But wait, don't the letters look a bit odd? Exit the telescope and take notice of the keypad on the right door. It requires a number sequence. Head back to the telescope and examine the word "PEEPER" again. See the clue yet? "PEEPER" is the number sequence! It appears the man was giving you the answer by writing it on the glass, but he forgot to take into acount you would see it backwards! Reflect the word, and you will see it is actually the numbers "739339".
Room 7: This room contains 2 gaps with planks in an upright position on the edge of the gaps. Push over the first plank to create a bridge. In the middle, you will see the floor changes color in certain areas when you step on them, and so do the doors. Change the colors so that both doors have the same color (not the default, no color) and enter through the left door. You will come out on the right. Push over the plank, and reset the color for the right door so that it is not colored.
Room 8: There are different size pearls on the floors and platforms to put the pearls on. Putting a pearl on one will raise the floor to create a part of a staircase. Experiment to find the right combination of pearls. The order is: Large, Medium, Huge, Tiny, Big, Small.
Room 9: There is a service hatch, a power outlet, a TV, a cord (connected to the TV) that can't reach the power outlet, and a screw driver in this room. Pick up the screw driver and unscrew the service hatch. Inside there is an extension cord. Plug it into the outlet, and then grab the cord connected to the TV and pull it to the extension cord. Plug it in and now the TV works! Turn on the TV and flip to the channels until you see a person walking through the rooms. Keep watching to see the order of the rooms she walks through. Take note of the channel numbers and use it on the keypad on the door (Note: She comes from the car first). The combination is 954271.
Room 10: There are 6 lights set up around the room. When you walk on the ground in front of one, it changes color. If you have a keen eye, you will also notice that the light blinks a certain number of times as well. Keep track of how many times each light blinks, as this is key to solving the puzzle. Going counter-clockwise around the room (starting from the door), the number of times each light blinks is: 4, 6, 2, 5, 3, 1. If you're smart you'll realize that these numbers correspond to which color you have to make the floor in front of the light. Going counter-clockwise around the room (starting from the door), the colors have to be: yellow, purple, green, cyan, blue, red. Once you input these colors, an elevator will appear.
Congratulations, you just beat the game!
Great puzzler, hungering for more!
Very, very well thought out game. The bit with the telescope was, well, cinematic, and I enjoyed having to clash some braincells together, I was almost ready to give up on the last one for a bit. As with everyone else, I think the length is the only real flaw in the game. But that really just means you got me addicted. Great job!
this was awsome
me and my brother beat it together! it was so hard. I hate that room with all the light bulbs. i needed a walkthrough for that part. Make a sequel. its too short.
great job!!
i thouroly enjoyed this game very much. make a sequel!
