pencil
A new escape the room challenge by Tateita. Can you escape from this room, it will involve using a pencil.
hm ... stuck on the star with three butttons. i´ve found the map with the star, but i don´t know what to do now. i can´t get out the trick how to press the Buttons in order to the map.
I feel rather stupid now. Even with the down, right en left hints I can't figure out how the "ladder" puzzle should be solved. Any hints on how this works, because anonymous' post that instructs "must reach the star from the bottom" just doesn't make sense to me. Any tips appreciated.
Trace a route where if you come to an intersection between two lines you MUST take the turning. For instance if you start on the far left vertical line you will have to turn right when you reach the first horizontal line. You'll find that there's only one route that will take you to the star. Also, dont forget to start by going down.
Yeah I have no clue how people understood the star puzzle logic but whatever. I used the answer I got here and finished. A pretty simple game other than the star "ladder".
I figured out the ladder puzzle (they are very common in room escapes), but I was stumped at how the buttons worked because I was over-thinking. I thought the vertical buttons were down buttons (right or left side of ladders) and the horizontal button was the rung of the ladder. Boy do I feel stupid. It was easy once I realized my error.
can anyone tell me how to solve the ladder puzzle by telling me which buttons to push, like the button on the left, right or middle(the middle one being the horizontal one under the star.) because I'm not getting the down, left, right thing.
never mind, I see now the down right left does refer to the buttons, down is the button underneath the star, right is the vertical button to the right of the star and left is the vertical button to the left of the star, I feel like I really should have got that sooner.
This could be difficult.
ReplyDeleteI may have to work it out with a pencil!
By the way, you are not first, nor am I.
I feel like the pencil should have more of a point.

ReplyDeleteAny suggestions?
You must reach the star from the bottom of the 'ladder'. Beginning at top center, the path is:

D - down
R - right
L - left
Cheers !

ReplyDeleteIs there another link? This one keeps sticking at 99% and won't load.
ReplyDeleteThis is the only link, I suggest you just try to refresh the page.
ReplyDeleteI had the same 99% loading problem, but after repeated refreshes it finally completed loading.
ReplyDeleteThe first escape the room game I have ever escaped!
ReplyDeleteWow, that was short - I had just gotten started when the door opened and I was out.
ReplyDeleteShort, but fun.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bart!
