thanks @Selfdefiant! Now off to look for white marbles (?)

Stop posting games pls. I need to work!

Cup in the garbage can; you can fill it with water.

Hello! My computor is very slow today. Hope I can join you.

i thought at first we had to translate morse code, but that's not it.
dont' forget to look out the window!

im in

SD under the chair...

The shapes pictures are a clue to one of the boxes, but I can't figure out the order. Started with the beginning screen, but that wasn't it.

water on fire gives ball.

URUDRL for box in top drawer.

hmm, tried to pour the cup of water on the page of the odd book, but it didn't seem to work.

have water in cup used on fireplace, sd, and have a code for the drawer but I don't know the order

another one!

And we can turn the I love books sign; tried rotating the shapes, but that didn't work either.

Shaheen - thats what I tried but does not work for me

Clue for the outdoor sign hanging on the bulletin board.

@Shaheen, I tried that too and opposite of that and it didn't work for me either

it did not work for me too for a couple of times, then got it.

zoz - morse code from outside working on 5-digit-box

I think the heart sign that can be rotated is a hint to turn all the stars a quarter turn

going to try it

pour water over fire for white ball

Start where the love sign tells you to.

The starpuzzle is from right to left

Thank you at Kanluce, I thought I had tried that already, guess not!

there is a book in the big library which needs a page wet with something - but water doesnt work

Stuck with screwdriver, can refill cup - don't know if that's useful. Need 3 digit code & something to wipe book with. Something funny about leg of right chair.

URULRD for top drawer

Thanks for the star puzzle hints.
Stuck on the rest of puzzles now.

anyone get the 3 digit morse code box? Hint anyone?

not getting the morse code thing???

POP! got the morse code thing

@kanluce, I thought the same about the leg of the right chair, but the leg of the left chair looks the same.

the sign outside seems to be letters not numbers? or am I just way off

cant use any of codes posted for top drawer. does up mean light color part facing up or at the top??

3 balls

Solved the five digit box with the outside sign (top to bottom). Thought the three digit box was the dark sun symbols, but not working for me.

evans - look at my post above - gave answer

has anyone found a cloth or anything to wet the page of this book?

stuck with 3 balls

any

...any hint about the 3-digit-box

for the three digit box, use the three numbers that are NOT by a black star, starting with the darkest.

sign outside is for FIVE number code box not the three number code box

opened and now have 3 marbles

I have 2 white marbles, cup with water, and SD. Where do we use SD?

Thx @Jo-Anne & @zoz. What about the bent lines on the fireplace for the puzzle in the bottom drawer? Can't figure out which ones to use.

four marbles now, still need to wet the book page and figure out what to do with the four books with white slits on the spine

opened 3 digit code box thanks @Zoz fir the hint!

now have 4 marbles

Does the box in lowest drawer has something to do with the signs at chimney?

thanks @zoz! three marbles now as well. any idea about the "corner" box?

Can't find any clickable books in the library..

thx Zoz - go 4 now!

can't find the book either, but I found a paint brush on the top right.

Paintbrush on bookshelf after moving ladder.

thanks zoz

4 marbles now

POP! found it in the top middle

I have all the balls, but can't find where to set them...

I thought the fireplace might be hint for bottom drawer but can't figure it out

got 5th marble now
but where to place them?

anyone opened the 5 digit box above chimney yet?

can't find paintbrush

nevermind. figured it out

excellent find on the paintbrush! dip it in water and then get clue from book. have dark key now...

Paintbrush is left top corner of big cb

Wet the paintbrush at the water fountain, use that to wet the page in the book. Gives clue.

Thank you Selfdefiant!
After trying to play that badly made small key escape game , to be able to play one of your games is like a tall drink of water to my gaming thirst. First I am going to make a cup of coffee before I start playing because your games are like good chocolate or sex, I like to take the time savor it. Also I loved your last scary game. It rocked.

lol Alice

puzzle in bottom drawer gives key to book return, another marble.

@Miller for 5 digit box see comments above. translate the sign outside the window using the clue on the bulletin board.

yes miller - use clue from outside and note on wall

WooHoo! - Thank you SD!!!

Where I got the balls (as far as I remember):
1 in box on bookshelf using sd
1 in 5-number box using code from sign
1 in 3-number box using standing-out numbers from the star list
1 in the corner-code box, using code from book (get the brush wet and use on the middle book of the top row)
1 in "book return" using black key

Stuck with 5 marbles and a cup of water.

I'm throwing water on everything...

trying to shove the marbles everywhere - out the windows into a drawer - down the ventilator mmmh

ok, so bent line puzzle clue is in book, not on fireplace. Have 5 marbles. Not sure what to do now.

This comment has been removed by the author.

thx Madde - people kept saying right side!

There are these suspiciously standing out books at the botom of the library, can't find out what to do with them though...

What about the 4 books at bottom right. Tried everywhere to place my marbles but nothing.

being stuck here - at least we are not bored with plenty to read

Got it!!!
Click the 4 books from light to dark (or was it vice-versa?) And they disappear!

Did anyone notice a little difference in a chair leg? (right near fire place). Maybe we can open it? But with what?

guess I will have to escape later, have to run now

good luck all!

And out!!! :D

Thank tou Selfdefiant, awesome game as always!!!

nice find Gina and OUT!

completely stuck. tried the water everywhere, plant, the marked books, etc...

Nah ... it's nothing .... never mind!
I am out ... thanks Gina!

thanks @Gina Black! out too

Where is the key for the ladder?

TY Gina! Why didn´t we think of that. It is always different greyscales. Smart!

thanks Gina
just when I was nicely sitting down with a book in those comfy armchairs

Hooray @Gina!

Thanks @Gina!!!
and thank you @Selfdefiant! No bugz whatsoever!

great game Selfdefiant - thank you!

Love you Selfdefiant! Keep them coming!

@Pat, i think the key for the ladder was in the 3 digit box

Thanks Gina! I'm out too.

I'm out! I am so slow at posting!!

Thanks everyone!

anyone here

can't find box on bookshelf

duh scrolled up so I can see top of ladder. Broke my clicky finger looking!

Get Me Outta Here Before I Read A Book And Learn Something - Through

Make a note of the “artwork” on the wall and which way the arrows are pointing (Up and Right in this scene).
Go right and rifle through the trash until you find a Styrofoam Cup.
Again, note the artwork on the wall.
Look in the file cabinet drawers to see two puzzle boxes that must be solved, and move a piece of paper on the bulletin board to reveal a clue.
Click on the “I Heart Books” and it will rotate so that the Heart is pointing to the piece of artwork on the left. This indicates that, for the puzzle in the top drawer, you should begin with this artwork and go around the room in a counterclockwise direction.

SPOILER for box in top drawer:

SPOILERUSPOILERRSPOILERUSPOILERLSPOILERRSPOILERDSPOILER

Open the box and take the white Marble.
Go right and look out the window at the Sign. The key for reading the sign is the clue on the bulletin board, and the answer is a five digit code for the box on the fireplace mantle.

SPOILER7SPOILER3SPOILER9SPOILER4SPOILER6SPOILER

Click under the chair on the left and take the Screwdriver.
Now, go back to the first scene and fill the Cup with water from the Water Fountain.
Return to the Fireplace and douse the fire using the Cup of water.
You should now have 3 Marbles.
Go right and look at the middle book on the top middle shelf.
Click on it and see that you need water to wash off the dirt obscuring something. Unfortunately, the Cup of water won’t work, even though you can keep refilling it.
Go back to the desk and bulletin board scene and look at the Puzzlebox on the desk. It has a black Star and requires a three-digit code.
Look at the paper on the bulletin board again and notice that only 3 of the stars beside the numbers are NOT black. These are the 3 numbers for the code, and they go from darkest to lightest.

SPOILER2SPOILER9SPOILER6SPOILER

Now you have a White Key, so go unlock the Ladder.
Slide the Ladder over and use the Screwdriver to remove the Vent cover for your fourth Marble.
On the top shelf on the left, where the ladder was, is a Paintbrush. Take it and wet it in the Water Fountain.
Return to the Odd Book on the top shelf and use the wet Paintbrush to see the code for the last puzzlebox, which is in the bottom drawer of the File Cabinet. Open the box and take the Gray Key.
Use the Gray Key on the door beneath the Book Return and take Marble #5.
Go back to the shelves with the ladder.
There are four books on the bottom right side that don’t look like the others. Click on these in order from lightest to darkest and they disappear. Now you can access the Safe where the Marbles go, and get the Black Key.
Go to the main door and open it to Escape the Library!

For the top drawer puzzle, I've used every solution mentioned here and none work for me! I've tried to solve it myself by imagining each picture rotated a quarter turn clockwise, but still nothing. Can someone please tell me WHICH picture to start with??

@John, start with the pic to the left of the movable "I love books" - picture. Then follow all the pics from right to left, counterclockwise through the room. No rotating.
Click here to see a picture of the solution.

Out of this game thanks to zoz (great wt!) for the 3-digit box, and thanks to Gina Black for finding the safe!

The top drawer took me ages. Start left of the heart and keep going left.

Thanks Ellie - I had tried that a few times and it wouldn't work. Closed out, restarted, and it worked. Go figure. :-)

my cursor always goes too slow with the greyscale games! Getting instant-rsi! Its only with these games, strange!

out with help for the safe. Thanks, Gina Black.

The books were a bit touchy. I thought I had tried both light to dark and dark to light. Even after confirming what to do, it took a couple of tries to get it to work.

Great game, otherwise. :)

Don't understand why there is a right pointing arrow on the drawer when you really read to the left. It should have just been omitted. I noticed that the stars were in different positions on each wall, thinking that answer was to order them according to position on wall (reading left to right like arrow) regardless of which wall they were on. Then I tried rotating like love picture. Both wrong...

Selfdefiant, thank you for the Friday morning treat.
