ok, so what I did to solve the code was write down what side the plant opens it's mouth for the whole sequence
ReplyDeleteso it starts opening towards the right twice then the left 4 times, etc
for the code, that would mean the button that looks like the mouth is opening to the right (the first button) get;s pushed ONCE, then the button that looks like the mouth is opening to the left (the second button) get's pushed TWICE
so for every 2 times the mouth opens, you push the button once
does that make sense?
hmm! a bit confuse, but I´ll check it!

have gas and note, but can't use it on red creature...
ReplyDeleteFor the dancing plant, this is what I got watching
ReplyDeleteR= plant opens mouth to the right
L= plant opens mouth to the left
RR LLLL RRRRRR LL RRRR LL RR LL RR LLLL
each pair represents one push of the button
so RR means push the first button (looks like mouth is open to the right) one time
does that help?
Maybe my game have a problem. My plant sequence is exactly the same as yours, but cannot open the safe;
ReplyDeleteWorse than that, my fash plugin chashed and I had not saved the game. :(.
Thanks. I´ll try tomorrow.
oh no Roberto! did the game auto save?
ReplyDeleteis anyone left?
ReplyDeleteI have all inventory spots full, only 6 items left to use. I still have
torch
can of spray
wooden cross
dart/arrow with suction cup
gas with note
crossbow
am stuck
still here, Jo-Ann,
ReplyDeletebut way behind you... (didn't start to cook yet LOL)
OH! got gas onto arrow, and arrow onto crossbow!
ReplyDeleteoff to try my luck with the red creature!
Jo-aNN, did you combine the gas with the arrow, and then the arrow wtih the bow?
ReplyDeleteYes Auto! thanks!
ReplyDeleteshot but missed red creature but got the security door down
cross goes into box, now need a code
still have torch and can of spray in inventory
MUST be close to the end!
Restarted the game and stuck again in plant safe.
ReplyDelete@Roberto, did you start from the beginning or was there some save?
ReplyDeleteI am thinking the final code has to do with the paper in the cabinet that says 5241 but am NOT a good code breaker
Can´t watch that plant dance anymore. I give up.
ReplyDeleteRestarted from beginning.
ReplyDeleteOh no Roberto!
ReplyDeleteI think I am going to give up for now
ReplyDeletestuck with final code (remember XXXXXXO in bathroom)
and have torch and spray
will check in later to see if anyone has it figured out
i just start playing game again ...cant fight with red devil with knives & green suit ..i keep coming out of the room ..how to fight ?
ReplyDeleteonly thing I know is the door code ends in zero per the bathroom mirror
ReplyDelete@raasti you have to wear the suit. view the suit in about item view, then click the top left grey button
ReplyDeletethen go in to the red creature
I am back now, but i don´t get the plant safe at all.
ReplyDeleteI tried the spoiler of Jo-Ann but nothing, i need help.
I have got the bow from drawer but where is the barrel you are talking about ?
ReplyDeleteZazie unfortunately I pretty much randomly clicked the code and it cleared for the safe. The plant pretty much did nothing for me. but it was only like 6 clicks to open the safe and the barrel is there just place the remaining swords based of each tic tac toe hint.
ReplyDeleteI got to go and take a break I think this game broke my brain.
Anyone remember where the number 2 star was?
ReplyDeleteThe barrel I think is inside the Plant Safe, but I tried tried tried tried and couldn´t open it.
ReplyDeleteWaiting for some step by step explanation.
OK thx dayhead i will try again, this game is really very hard, nonetheless i like it.
ReplyDeleteFortuntately it can be saved :)
Nr 2 star was on toilet after solving the panel code between the two toilet doors.
ReplyDeleteI think, the safe code has also sth to do with the red lights left & right...
ReplyDeletegovtchr,
as I remember, got #2 by using box (with star shape inside under cloth) on axe in storage room...
The hint for this panel is in black book. Look at the man´s positions like Middle Down Middle UP etc...
ReplyDeletePlant sequence must be related with R/L and colors. Makes no sense we supose that we have to click once for each 2 bites.
ReplyDelete@roberto, also impossible for me to open this safe.....
ReplyDeleteI only have a few minutes but I am restarting to see if I can figure out what I did to get that safe open
ReplyDeletethanks alls, I am late...and I don't undersand the video games, push start and after??? I can't see letters, help please
ReplyDeleteThanks - Now stuck on the safe code from the plant!
ReplyDeleteMe too i am still stuck at this plant safe....getting bored.
ReplyDeletetrying hard to get there! cooking some shish kabobs now!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteWhat I have for safe buttons & colours (x), but still didn't figured out, how to open safe...:
ReplyDeleteLeft-Right-Rgt-Left-Left-L-Right-
XX - oo - oX - Xo - oX - Xo - Xo -
Xo - ox - oX - oX - XX - XX - oo -
Left-Left-Rgt-Left-Rgt-Left-Right-Right
oo - Xo - oX - XX - oX - XX - oo - XX
Xo - Xo - Xo - oo - oo - oo - XX - xx
I have to run and get my kids from school... I will come back and see if I can figure it out for all of you!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jo-Ann !!! If it is too late for me i will try tomorrow but thx in advance :)
ReplyDeletefigured out the plant!
ReplyDeleteeach time the plant looks to one side, there are certain boxes lit up on the four corners. So, when the lights are in the corners like this:
x
x x the plant turns toward the right.
I think it does have to do with the colors and the way it faces so......try LLRRLL then either L or R
ReplyDeletebtw, govtchr,
ReplyDeleteZazie was right (#2 from toilet), from box was #4.
☺
For safe:
- after 5 clicks (L or R), there are 4 red lights & after 6 clicks etc. no more red lights...
So, you look at which boxes light up after each correct click and click the plant facing that direction. I didn't write down which way the order was, but I have the directions with the lights I can post.
ReplyDeleteFinally got the safe open.
ReplyDeleteif the box has the lights X X
ReplyDeleteO X the plant turns right
(X is the corners that are lit up)
O O
O X plant turns left
O X
O X plant turns left
X O
O X plant turns right

You need to compare the patterns in plant downstairs with patterns in safe.
ReplyDeleteMy sequence was:
LLRRLLL
ditto here, roberto,
ReplyDeleteBUTTONS to click:
R-R-L-L-R-R-R
@govtchr please put us a spoiler ! I am that tired that i cannot follow the LLRR hints anymore, but i would like to finish it before going to bed.
ReplyDeleteI'm back and it's not working for me :(
ReplyDeleteNeither for me :(
ReplyDeleteI tried both, premiere´s and roberto´s hints, still nothing....
got it thanks to roberto !
ReplyDeleteZazie i'll try to explain !
ReplyDeleteDrisana -
ReplyDeleteWrite down the sequence of colors in dancing plant.
There are 16 paterns:
Write them down like this:
R R
R B
B B
B R
Go upstairs and write down the sequence after each click.
There are 7 sequances and then last one, is all blue.
Search for each pattern from the safe in the patterns from dancing plant, and see if the plant is lookink Left or Right.
Look at the safe, wathever button you push, red lights are always the same sequence !
ReplyDeletenote what light is on for each click (7) then go to plant and note where it looks when lights are the same as the safe.
My sequence was (plant facing not left/right)
LRLLLRL
Where would I find the clue for the final safe? I tried the numbers from any of the other clues and got nowhere
ReplyDeleteDrisana,
ReplyDeleteso do we have different codes for each other game...!?
Thank you Drisana for the detailed explanation.
ReplyDeleteI understand better now but i think i will try it tomorrow. All my concentration is gone for today lol.
But thx everybody a lot !
I hope that i can escape tomorrow !
Hi Everyone
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wonderful hints, but my plant safe is not working no matter what I try. too bad! I think I am not going to finish this one!
Yep Premiere code for plant safe are different... :(
ReplyDeleteI did very well until now but this safe is driving me crazy, i really better go to bed now lol, cu all tomorrow (i hope)
ReplyDeleteDid we use the spray ?
ReplyDeleteNope, Drisana...
ReplyDeleteI am back and finally at the plant safe again. And no my hint doesn't work. :( guess I just lucked out last game. Does that mean the code is different each time? not sure
ReplyDeleteTschüss, Zazie,
ReplyDeletesweet dreams (hopefully not dancing plant nightmares LOL)
Bye Zazie !
ReplyDeleteYes Jo Ann codes are different !
so I have two games open. one at the plant safe and the other farther along at the safe in the red creatures room
ReplyDeleteI'll keep at the plant safe to see if I can figure it out...
if anyone else made it past the plant safe, any ideas for the final safe code? I still have my torch, spray and the hint on the bathroom mirror
ditto here, Jo-Ann,
ReplyDelete& what about the coloured number hint in CB (princess suit), was it only used for «here»...?
:-o
7 digits (last one 0) according mirror...
ReplyDelete@Premiere, I thought those numbers were unused as well...
ReplyDeleteI found a turkish site (Yalcin's?) with the game and a forum, but they are not even at the plant yet
ReplyDeletePlant Safe - what I don't understand, is if there are 16 light patterns on the dancing plants and with each of the patterns they are looking a different way, why wouldn't you need to hit the L/R buttons on the safe 16 times?
ReplyDeletefor 3/red -->d i thought maybe to take the third letter in "red"
ReplyDeleteSo 5241 (green, orange, grey, blue) is nryb that is, converted with a=1 14 18 25 1 but no...
got it, the numbers for the safe are the shape of the cross
ReplyDeleteEnjoy you have to hit l/r buttons according to the safe, not to the plant. IE first note lights on safe, then go to see plant, and look at lights you need for your safe.
ReplyDeletePLants give 16 lights but you just need 7 of them !
Good find magnet !!!
ReplyDeletebrain blackout here...
ReplyDeleteplz, explain, magnet0
@magneto SUPER!!! so simple and was right in front of me the whole time!
ReplyDeleteout now but will still work on the plant safe for a bit
And out ! that was a VERY good game !!
ReplyDeleteThanks everybody for hints and solutions !
Premiere look at your number pad.. can you draw a cross on it ? and you know that it ends with 0 ... ;)
ReplyDelete@ Drisana - thank you! Your explanation did it!!! Yippee got the plant safe open!!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteok I think I got the plant code this time. lol this is what I did to find out the code (different each game?)
ReplyDeleteFirst, I wrote down all 16 light codes that corresponded to the plant head turns.
so for my game, the first time the plant turned it's head and opened it's mouth to the right (twice)
the corresponding light pattern for me was
RR
RW
the next plant head turn was left left and the light was
WW
WR
then, the next head turn was left left, the light was
RR
WR
etc
then, I went up to the safe. The light pattern that you could see first on the safe (after hitting restart) was
RW
RW
I went to my set of 16 light codes and found that when that light code happened, the plant was facing the right
so I clicked the button with the plant facing the right
then I got a second set of lights. I looked at the pattern on the safe, found the one in my notes that corresponded and clicked that button
Does that make sense?
that was an awesome game! I came in late but was lucky enough to play some of it live!
ReplyDeleteHope the game maker keeps making them like this!
will stick around a bit if anyone needs help
what do I do after I get the key from the barrel? I haven't found the gas/note that was mentioned above.
ReplyDeletePop.. use key from barrel to open jar in inventory for gas
ReplyDelete@Enjoy, the key opens the jar in your inventory
ReplyDeleterestarted and :
ReplyDeletewhen you chop onions, you got hint for a sequence of buttons to enter in video game. So the little men draw letters slowy on screen (hint for letter code knives)
@Drisana, I thought that note had to do with the game, but because I had the code, I never thought to much about it!
ReplyDeleteLongtime lurker, first time poster. Thanks to everyone for the hints -- I was doing really well but I was really stuck on the last door code. did anyone else find the second (true) end yet?
ReplyDelete@mereilin how do you know there are two endings?
ReplyDeletedid you get out once?
if there is a second ending, it could have to do with the spray we never used
Jo-Ann, I found the second end when I went back in, because the game didn't feel finished. Go back upstairs before you go outside and the squirrel is gone. You'll find him in the kitchen with another clue.
ReplyDeleteI am replaying, opened the final door code and now looking around again for a use for the spray
ReplyDeletesquirrel is gone... was he gone before?
Thanks everyone for the excellent help. The only thing that I did not understand was the code for the big cupboard. the code was 88-58-90, but the hint I believe said 10000.
ReplyDeleteCan someone explain? (I tried to look at the hint again from the kitchen fan, but wasn't able to look at it again. Was there something on the other side?)
lol just found the squirrel gone
ReplyDeleteso I got the new code, it says unlocked again, do I go out the door?
restarted the game trying to catc up for the 2nd end :)
ReplyDelete@Emjoy, the note that said 10000 had some info on the back with the numbers for the cabinet
ReplyDeleteGo back into the red room and look to the right. Someone needs the healing spray. :)
ReplyDelete@mereilin, used the spray but the red dude is still hopping around
ReplyDeletedo I leave now?
I don't want to have to replay this game again, even from a saved spot! I've played it from the start twice now!
Go out of the red room, and then back in.
ReplyDeleteOh! My clothes! lol
ReplyDeleteIt's easier to catch a ride when you're not in your undies! I loved the epilogue. :)
ReplyDeleteno wonder no one stopped for me last time, I was almost naked!
ReplyDeleteNow, car stops, and I ...wake up from a bad dream? am recovering in a bed?
doesn't matter, I have my bracelet that was stolen when I was in the hot tub at the beginning!
@mereilin thank you for the second ending!
awesome game! best one in a long time!
@Jo-Ann, where did you find the new code paper?
ReplyDelete@Enjoy, if you go back upstairs, the squirrel is gone! you will find him in one of the kitchen drawers, turn him over for a new code
ReplyDeletethanks was looking for the squirrel
ReplyDeleteEven better with another end :) This is really a great game
ReplyDeleteok, I am out of here. Hope there are enough breadcrumbs for everyone to find there way out!
ReplyDeletewell, of course I am too dense (stupid) to figure out the last code. I turned the darn thing but nothing is working. I have gone from right to left and from down to up and everything in-between. Help
ReplyDeletePop. I got it again.
ReplyDeleteFinally out !
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteCan someone explain me kitchen code 6075 please?
ReplyDelete@seb, the hint says (Diamond ✕ Star) - (Square ✕ Circle) / Flower(?)
ReplyDeleteFrom those you know Flower = 6 (Salt) and Diamond = 135 (Sake)
Use the recipe to calculate the rest of the values, knowing that 1:, 3: and 5: are ratios.
5: Soy Sauce (Star) = 675 (135 ✕ 5)
3: Sugar (Circle) = 405 (135 ✕ 3)
1: Mirin (Square) = 135 (same ratio than Sake [1:])
Substitute the values in the formula:
[ (135 ✕ 675) - (135 ✕ 405) ] /6
and there's where the code comes from...
Thanks a lot for explanations Edgar, I appreciate very much :)
ReplyDeleteCrazy, 300+ posts now !!
ReplyDeleteWell, I could need a hint for the soap, as I can't put it into the tub. Why?
Do I have to wait several minutes until the tub is filled up with water or something?
Yes, I think you have to do that. Turn the water on and leave the bathroom. Later on when you return the tub should be full of water, and a clue in the mirror for door code. Then, you should be able to use the soap in the full tub. Might take a while to fill it.

ReplyDeleteThanks! And a warm and heart-warming WB, Ellie !! =)
ReplyDelete(Quiet as a meadow flower in spring when the wind is silent, but always there :))
PLEASE ? WHAT ?
We have to cook stuff on the FIREPLACE even though we have a kitchen where this is usually done?!
This is so weird...
... but fireplace or no fireplace, I'm STUCK.
ReplyDeleteGot the liquid stuff cooking, but the meat is still raw. Won't let me put the whole aluminum/whatever-metal thing with the meat on the fireplace grill.
Where the hell is the trick here? Been trying for 5 minutes now, to no avail.
POP FINALLY! You need to pour the sauce OVER the meat, THEN you can put the square metal thing on the grill. (Hardly any cook would ever do this (at least not UNCOVERED), because it would be a huge MESS if you barbecued the meat, with the hot sauce splashing everywhere (from the heat))
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry @arbeitslooser... went to bed and never saw your last posts. I'm glad to see you found out how to prepare the food "Japanese game style".
ReplyDeleteI liked this game a lot. Plenty of codes, and no real language barrier to solve them. Long and challenging time in there :)
I can not with the plant. my sequence is DD IIII DDDDDD II DDDD II DD II DD IIII, I press I DD III D II D I D I DD, ande colors:

the plant look left when all 4 are red
Helen, I hope you noticed that if the plant looks LEFT, you have to press the RIGHT of the buttons, and if it looks RIGHT, you have to press the LEFT one. This has already driven many folks insane here :)
ReplyDeleteyes, but I get nothing, arbeitslooser
ReplyDelete@Helen, you should not press the whole sequence of moves your plant makes.
ReplyDeleteYou have to look at the red pattern on the safe, then find the same one among your notes from the plant, and see if the plant faces left or right on that specific pattern.
When you press a button on the safe you will get a new pattern. Again, go to your notes from the plant to find that pattern, and see if you need to face left or right.
Repeat this for all new patterns you get on the safe. It should be about 6 or 7 clicks (don't remember exactly).
ESCAPE FROM THE RED CREATURE by Gatamari
ReplyDelete-Walkthrough-
(beware, this is gonna be an extremely long one!!)
INTRO (you may SKIP this if you wish)
You find yourself batheing in a small pond where you can also see a precious ruby bracelet nearby, which
you took off before bathing.Soon, a thunderstorm breaks loose and a shadowy spirit comes from the sky and snatches the bracelet w/lying there unguarded.
While trying to figure out where the spirit has gone to, you find yourself locked in a multi-storey
building (and get to pick up your bracelet again (doesn't it look a bit too girlish, huh))
So how can you get out, and that means, UNHARMED?
========
PART I
========
Well. First, go left to the...
------------
REDROOM (I)
------------
There's a creature that looks like teh DEVIL himself. Just do nothing, just wait --
and the creature will come rushing toward you and take away your clothes. Dire outcome!! Now you have to continue
to make your way in your underpants. Whee, sexy!
You now find yourself in a section with many rooms:
KITCHEN
ENTRANCE
and
LIVING ROOM (which can be accessed by the down arrow)
--------------
LIVING ROOM
--------------
Pick up the portable VIDEO GAME CONSOLE, the MATCHES and the STRANGE PLANT off the table.
Open the PLANT in inventory ("about item") and you can see that at its bottom, it can be plugged in somewhere.
(Much, much later though.)
----------------------------
HALL (KITCHEN/ENTRANCE) (II)
----------------------------
Go back to the KITCHEN/ENTRANCE section, pick up the LOCKED CERAMIC POT and check out the RED BOOKS on the upper shelf.:
They are entitled
SON / ZONE / ON / CENT / OZ / ME / NOSE / NO. At first, these words make no sense to you, but within minutes, they will!
Pick up the rightmost "book" on the lower shelf. It rather looks like a flat plastic (?) box than a book, with the hint MEET written on it.
Open the flat box, flip it around and you can see a CROSSWORD PUZZLE!
(HINT: combine words from books in upper shelf with words, solution below. A pen and a sheet of paper are highly recommended.)
Pick up NUMBER STICKER "2" from the flat box's secret compartment.
Also, pick up the SMALL BOOK (reveals itself as a valuable hint book!) from the middle of the lower shelf.
Open SMALL BOOK.
On the first pages, you can see a funny guy (haha reminds me quite a bit of Chuck Rock on the C=64, ah the memories! =))
who seemingly walks, crouches and jumps without any obvious reason.
(HINT: Find the door to the BATHROOM (more exactly: bathroom HALL) and look around. You might get an idea where to make use of these clues/hints. If not, solution is below.)
Continue browsing SMALL BOOK...skipping 4 empty pages...
You can see a STRANGE EYE and "x4 OPEN" clues. (Solution below.)
There is yet another page at the end of the book, that will show you how to make a torch:
* Find a strong wooden stick (you'll get that in a minute)
* Find something to tie around (like a cloth or maybe something else ;))
* Soak the fabric in oil (surely you'll have to find that, too! :P)
* Set it on fire with a match (hah, glad we got these already!)
(This torch will be needed for the STOREROOM later, because you can't do anything in there without a light source.)
Go to the...
---------
ENTRANCE
---------
and find said wooden stick. Voila! 2 torch parts of 4 are now found.
Also take a look at the MAP hanging beside the entrance door. It's all Greek to you (or more exactly: Japanese to you) but you might have to "read" it anyway to have some clues working later. (Better be safe than sorry!)
Ignore the CABINET on the right for now, as it's shut tight like Fort Knox.
Back out, and go to the left. (The kitchen needs an access card, so don't bother for now.)
========
ReplyDeletePART II
========
--------------------
HALL (FIREPLACE) (I)
--------------------
You find an FUEL CANISTER (bingo! 3 of 4 torch parts are now found), and, when zooming on the PIG, also a FRESH BUNCH OF LEEK.
Go left, pick up the BEDROOM KEY in front of the REDROOM door, and note the TALL CUPBOARD:
- lower drawer needs a 6-letter code word
- upper drawer needs a key
- the large doors above need a 3-pair number code (xx-xx-xx)
----------------------
BATHROOM/TOILET [HALL]
----------------------
Go left, head into the BATHROOM (hall), press buttons in correct order (as described above), enter TOILET and pick up NUMBER STICKER "2" off the toilet lid.
Look at the CALENDAR on the right, and press the upper right spot where you can see a Sellotape. You will flip the calendar back to January, and see a 3 x 3 GRID with the numbers "14" and "20" marked in red.
(HINT: Think Tic-Tac-Toe! Solution below.)
---------------------------
HALL (BATHROOM/BEDROOM) (I)
---------------------------
Back out into the HALL, zoom into the DRAGON PICTURE on the wall (make a mental note of the BLACK SPOTS) and unlock the BEDROOM with the key you just found.
-----------------------
BEDROOM (RIGHT SECTION)
-----------------------
Pick up the HINT POSTCARD from under the CUSHION and take the EYE BOX.
(HINT: As noted in the hint book, you have to have all 4 hats lifted up and all 4 eyes looking straightly to you.
Although there might be a rule behind it, the box can be opened with a little trial and error.)
Pick up the SPRAY CAN from inside the box. BUT WAIT! There's more in that box. Look at it again in the inventory. You can see a faint shape of a NUMBER STICKER just like those two you've found so far. Perhaps there is a way to "treat" the box so that it its secret get revealed? Well, maybe later.
-----------------------
BEDROOM (LEFT SECTION)
-----------------------
GO LEFT (w/still in the bedroom) and see TIC-TAC-TOE CLUE #2 on the wall (#1 was in the toilet, just FYI)
Pick up LANCE. Then leave the bedroom and go back to the right toward...
---------------------
HALL (FIREPLACE) (II)
---------------------
and the KNIGHT-IN-GLASS-CASE next to which you found the FUEL CANISTER.
Zoom at the case and you can see FOUR SKULLS at the bottom right.
Look at the HINT POSTCARD you had found in the bedroom. Get it?
(Solution below)
Enter correct code, click again where the code had to be entered (this opens the glass door of the case) and get the KNIGHT from inside the case. Click on the Japanese characters on the upper right to WEAR KNIGHT'S ARMOR.
Also pick up the NUMBER STICKER "3" from the bottom of the case. (Easy to miss!)
Go left.
-----------------------------
HALL (REDROOM/STOREROOM) (II)
-----------------------------
First, look at the VIDEO GAME again and press START. The men, seemingly jumping around with no destination, actually
"draw" 6 letters on the screen. (Huge thanks must go to Valérie for finding this out, as I can't seem to spot any
"letter" in that mess. Solution below.)
Entering the correct code word on the lower drawer will get you 36 KNIVES.
------------
REDROOM (II)
------------
Now enter the REDROOM, and get into POINTLESS FIGHT #1 with the devil. (Pointless, because you will always lose.)
Mr. Devil has managed to grab your LANCE in mid-air and break it! Luck is on your side today...but WAIT! That broken
weapon conceals a KEY!
Go right 2 times to...
=========
ReplyDeletePART III
=========
----------------------------
HALL (KITCHEN/ENTRANCE) (II)
----------------------------
and use your new KEY to open the small lower doors from the BOOKSHELF. Inside, you find a PURPLE BOX and ... a DUCT TAPE! (Guess what will follow next??)
Sure thing - we're about to make us a torch! Open STRONG STICK in inventory, tie duct tape firmly around it, apply FUEL to it (from the canister) and light it with the match! Voila! Let there be light! (Erm...Sprite light or Coke light?!)
Go right 2 times, into ...
----------
STOREROOM
----------
STOREROOM. Highlight TORCH in inventory and click into the room. Now you can see something!
Remember that box with the sticker-like shape on its bottom? Well, use it with the AX and chop it! This gets you NUMBER STICKER "4". But wait! That ax can do much more! Chop the LEEK into small chunks (yes you guessed it, we're about to COOK some stuff later!) and get a HINT PAPER (which you can see in gray amongst the green chunks of leek).
Get the FROG COSTUME from the hook on the back wall and WEAR it (just the same way you did with the knight's armor before). Zoom on the BUCKET and there's a SQUARE PIECE inside. Get it and click on it once to unwrap it: it reveals a

REDROOM (III)

Now it's time to pick POINTLESS FIGHT #2. "Armed" (bwahaha) with your frog costume and 36 knives, you enter the REDROOM
and try to prove yourself as a knife-throwing athlete (though for the poor man). As you might have guessed, you lose again.
You find yourself in front of the ...
----------------------
HALL (FIREPLACE) (III)
----------------------
(with the pig on top of it). Mr. Devil has left you his (poor man's) SHIELD he had used to absorb your salve of knives (this is actually a FOOD PLATE, btw). Open the plate in inventory and find
the KITCHEN ACCESS CARD on it. Coolish! (Ignore what's written on that card for now, because it won't matter right now.)
But don't go to the kitchen yet. Go right TWO times, into the bathroom hall, then into

BATHROOM (I)

itself. (I think that's a damn cool kinda water outlet. Some goth chicks might love to have this in their bathrooms, I'm sure. :P)
Press the button on the creature's head and ... LET THE WATER FLOW! This will take time, so back out (2x) and go left - now INTO the kitchen. (Use your access card at the door). Kitchen is now permanently unlocked - so TAKE BACK the card!
-----------
KITCHEN (I)
-----------
Open lower drawer and get the INDIACA DART (HINT: ... whose top (unlike the Darts game ones) is not pointy and sharp, but made of a rubber-like material and thus able to work as "LEECH" in Masters of the Universe (remember that buddy?))
Leave the kitchen for now, and get back to...

BATHROOM (II)

Yeah, now the tub is filled up! On the MIRROR, you can also read:
DOOR PASS

It means that the password for the door will end in a 0 (zero).
Putting green soap into hot BATHTUB will get you NUMBER STICKER "5".
Back up 2 times, and head to...

ENTRANCE (II)

Now "Leechie the Indiaca Dart" is ready to do its helpful job! Press it onto the HANDLE-LESS PANEL COVER on top of the
CABINET on the right (which would normally take a thin screwdriver to pry off), and it will suck onto the cover
and -- with a 'WHUMP!' - remove it and reveal a HIDDEN SWITCH! Push it, and the cabinet can be opened! Take back the dart as well, as you will need it later again. Click the COVER you've just removed and get NUMBER STICKER "7". (Two to go!)
Right hand side got a BOTTLE OF SAKE inside (also note the MIRRORED (!) "135" on its bottom and the DIAMOND on its neck),
whilst the left hand side holds a PILE OF LOGS.

KITCHEN (II)
------------
Now let's rummage in the rest of the drawers...
There is a WOODEN CROSS in the upper drawer, which is no use to you until much later. The middle drawer doesn't contain
anything of interest. Under the sink, you find a BOTTLE OF MIRIN (note the SQUARE on the bottle!).
Inside the right cupboard above your head there is a BOTTLE OF SOY SAUCE (note the STAR on the bottle!).
Now take a look at the KITCHEN ACCESS CARD (there is also something on the back, but this does not matter now.)
Concentrate on the three SHISH KEBAB SPITS. Obviously, there are BROWN (meat) and GREEN (vegetable) bits of food on the spits. This is the code to the lower left cupboard. (Solution below)
Open the cupboard and find nine PACKAGES OF SUGAR OR SALT inside. Pick up SUGAR PACKAGE (in center) and open it. Also note the CIRCLE on the package. The first package in first row (upper left) contains salt, which you can't take but notice a blue "6" on it, so there must be something interesting inside. Use your KNIFE to open the salt package, and find NUMBER STICKER "6" inside! (Just one more to go! By the way, the blue "6", THISTLE-shaped like the number stickers we found, wasn't there by pure luck but it is part of the MATH EQUATION later, so take a mental note of it!)
Between the two sets of cupboards, there's another point of interest. See that red button on the panel mounted below
the upper set of cupboards? It does nothing, but it once was meant to toggle the FAN. Find the tiny spot RIGHT of that red button, and you should get a close-up view of the FAN. You find a 10,000 YEN NOTE! Flip it and see a pretty girl
and below the "code" B88W58H90.
Take a mental note of all that.
Now the final cupboard to open is the upper left one.
Zooming on it reveals that you need a bunch of SYMBOLS (those are: circle, square, diamond and star).
Remember those symbols found on bottles? Well, they will soon be of some greater importance now.
Again, let's summarize:
Mirin bottle: "square"
Soy sauce bottle: "star"
Sugar package: "circle"
Sake bottle: "diamond"
(HINT 1: Math reads: ((DIAMOND x STAR) minus (SQUARE x CIRCLE)) divided by THISTLE)
(HINT 2a: Look at the kitchen access card again and reflect upon what "5:", "3:", "1:" and "1" could stand for.)
(HINT 2b: I personally like to mix myself a LEMONADE with less sugar, by using a small amount of thick orangeade syrup
and then filling the glass up with water up to the brim. It follows roughly the same principle. :))
(Full solution below.)
And there it is, our hard-won COOKING POT!
Click the white Japanese characters on black background, and everything is mixed automatically using the correct ratios!
Open the FRIDGE (lower part) and get the RAW SHISH KEBAB SPITS out of it.
Open the upper part of the FRIDGE and zoom on the ICE CUBE MAKER! It is again a 3x3 grid and qualifies as TIC-TAC-TOE HINT #3 (note the black arrow too: it's not there by pure luck!)
AND NOW ... FINALLY... IT'S COOKIN' TIME !!
Back out and go left to...
----------------------
HALL (FIREPLACE) (IV)
----------------------
Put the pile of LOGS into the fireplace, and light it with your torch. (WHOOSH!)
Boil the SAUCE in the pot and when the item shows up, press the X to close the small window.
Instead, "about item" the SHISH KEBAB SPITS, and pour the hot SAUCE onto them!
(Please don't ask me why this is supposed to get put on the grill fully UNCOVERED. Japanese people probably like to give their walls a fresh new paint very often. :-P)
Close the small window ("X") and highlight the (now PREPARED) SHISH KEBAB SPITS again and put them onto the grill.
Mmmmmhh! Shortly after, dinner is ready.
But first, go left and head back to ...

Zoom on the large doors of the tall cupboard again. Now you can open it! You can't? Well, I don't "buy" that story from
you! Literally! (hint, hint)(Solution below.) Get the PRINCESS COSTUME (glitter stilettos, diadem, just everything) from the cupboard. (Yes you guessed it, the next part is going to become a bit GAY.:)) Read the NOTE on the left of the inside of the cupboard door, note the "here" word, the "3=D" and the "green_5 / orange_2 / gray_4 / blue_1" hint, the latter of which still does not make sense to you.
But...at least the former does! Open PURPLE BOX, put "HERE" as the password and - yeah, it opened! (Unusually easy, even.)
You find a BAG OF SEEDS inside which you can't make use of right now, so ... now let's play the "Dinner-Serving princess!"

Geez, wearing that stuff feels so gay!! (Glad there was no pearl necklaces or bracelets in that cupboard, or lipstick!!) But maybe it will do the trick this time...open door to REDROOM and serve the food to that devil-type'o'guy. Again, that was a TOTAL FAILURE! The red dude suddenly gets some doubt in your identity, gazes at you many times, then blows your cover, running away with your "lovely" costume!

Ellie thank you very much. I took 2 days trying and finally opened the safe. I do not think so, lol
ReplyDeleteWALKTHROUGH (CONTINUED)
ReplyDelete==========
PART VI
==========
----------------------------
- SECRET ROOM (DOWNSTAIRS)
----------------------------
(Now you might realize why it was a clever thing to ignore things downstairs first time. The squirrel shuns human
proximity and will NOT touch those seeds as long as you're strolling around up there. Since you did things the best possible way, you will be able to just get the key off the squirrel's claws next time you go up.)
Now do look right. You can see two weird (indigenous-looking) totem-like objects, and something that looks like a PLUG
between them. Remember that object you found which can be "plugged in" somewhere? Of course, it's the PLANT!
Highlight it and plug it into that socket. (CLICK!)
Did you see that mighty safe when you were upstairs? Well, this installation MAY help you to crack it (if you concentrate)
Press the yellow button.
After 4 "metronome-like" clicks (like those trademark ones done by the drummer in rock music) the plant will start to DANCE!
* The order and selection (= sequence) of red/white combinations are UNIQUE TO EACH GAME you play.
* HOWEVER: the assignment of combinations as such to directions the plant is facing seem FIXED.
(I can confirm, as I played the game yesterday and could take my original list from yesterday. Just the order
was different, but R/R | R/W as facing right (left button) as well as W/R | R/W was facing left (right button), just as yesterday. They just got randomized by their order.)
* There are 16 (!) possible color combinations.
* Each time the plant opens its mouth---facing in two IDENTICAL (and sequential) directions---the color of the totems (I'll call them that) changes, too.
* The order of moves / color combinations on the dancing plant DOES NOT MATTER AT ALL. The order (which is in fact a subset of the 16 moves shown here) is given by the safe's code module upstairs later.
* What you now have to do is take a pen and a paper (trust me, it's the most accurate way and saves you the trouble of doing it all over again, in case you make a mistake! Remember, colors can combine in 16 ways in total.)
* Upstairs, you will have to press the RIGHT button if the plant faces LEFT, and the LEFT button, if the plant faces
RIGHT. That's why you should always keep apart the buttons and the directions the plant is facing. You may want to
do this by using CAPITALS and small letters.
* Though you may ignore identical pairs of moves, it can also help to distinguish the direction the plant is facing from
the button you have to press. (That's what I did below, writing explicitly '2xr'). Just make sure to press ONE BUTTON PER PAIR. Example: Plant faces right-right, then left-left. So you have to press LEFT and RIGHT button in this order.
One idea to write them down could be this: (UPPER LEFT / LOWER LEFT) | (UPPER RIGHT/LOWER RIGHT)
(1) R/R -| R/W - faces 2xr - button L
(2) W/W - | W/R - faces 2xl - button R
(3) W/W - | R/R - faces 2xl - button R
...
Later (upstairs), you can just look at the color combination, and search for the right one on your paper, then piece the L and R moves together in right order. Again, it's the safe that "chooses" which combinations you have to answer. Imagine it to be a code sheet from an old home computer game. The manual has 40 pages, with one symbol printed on each page, but you only need 3 symbols, picked out by the game engine. (like: please give symbol from page 7, 21 and 39).
Without a doubt, it's cumbersome, but mandatory to solve the game.

ReplyDeletePART VII
=========
Part 7 on the way!!! If you have proved some persistence and not yet thrown the towel (well I hope so!), you can now pick up your prize from the safe: a BARREL WITH JESTER that can be rotated both counterclockwise and clockwise, once you've highlighted the KNIVES in your inventory and then clicked on the barrel. (Red arrows appear.) Now rotate the barrel and note the different colors on each side. Does this already ring a bell to you at this stage?
(HINT: Remember those four TIC TAC TOE clues. Still no cigar? ... solution below.)
Now you have a funny-looking JESTER KEY, which opens the LOCKED CERAMIC POT in your inventory!
Pick up the HINT NOTE and a GAS CAPSULE. Highlight it, and attach the DART to it!
Well, then also go left and grab the KEY (#4) off the plate you had put some seeds on for the squirrel.
Go downstairs (2 times) and right to ...
------------------------------
HALL (REDROOM/STOREROOM) (IV)
------------------------------
Darts/Arrows without something to shoot them with are no use, so unlock the remaining last locked drawer in the
tall cupboard with the key you got from the squirrel and get a ... CROSSBOW! Attach the GAS CAPSULE+DART missile to it
and now you have an ARMED CROSSBOW!
-------------
REDROOM (V)
-------------
Rush into the room, FIRE the crossbow at the devil, and ... you've set off an alarm, which, on its part, activated
the security door! The devil can no longer harm you, though, which feels comfortable. Open the PANEL in front of you.
Attach the CROSS you picked up in the kitchen "long time ago" and enter security code.
(Hint: are you now getting CROSS (literally) because you have no security code? Get in SHAPE again and save it for later. Solution below.)
Did you note TWO lights on the security panel, one of it still being red? Well, that's because there are TWO endings.
(This also explains why you haven't yet used your spray can.)
===========
ENDING 1
===========
** SAVE GAME! **
Leave building to (now unlocked) entrance door in your underpants (!!). Pray that you find a driver who will pick you
poor self up in his/her car as a hitch-hiker.
If you want ENDING 2, press RESTART after END screen. (Now you know why you should have saved your game.)

some kind of rotation.

Enter the alternate security code and ... VOILA, now the second light has turned green as well!
You will also notice a SPOT OF LIGHT SHINING from the right. Check this out!

Click on the spot where the light shines and you see ... MR. DEVIL! You see him dancing around like a kangaroo, as if

down a bit.
Leave the REDROOM.

That poor man's Chuck Rock lookalike shows you the buttons to press in the BATHROOM HALL, facing the BATHROOM DOOR
and the TOILET DOOR. (Note that the door that says "BATHROOM" will not get you directly inside the bathroom, but in a
HALL first, from which you can either access the bathroom or the toilet.)
The guy's movements are to be interpreted like this:
RUNNING (on ground) - center button
JUMPING (over obstacle) - middle button
CROUCHING - lower button
So you get:
MIDDLE - LOWER - MIDDLE - UPPER - MIDDLE - UPPER - LOWER - MIDDLE - UPPER
If done correctly, you'll get a "CLICK" sound and now you can enter the TOILET and pick up NUMBER STICKER "2" from the toilet lid.

- MATH EQUATION needed to open upper left cupboard in kitchen
--------------------------------------------------------------
This might get a bit tricky for some of you math-haters folks...
Mirin bottle: shows a SQUARE.
Soy sauce bottle shows a STAR.
Sugar package shows a CIRCLE.
Sake bottle: shows a DIAMOND.
Salt package shows a THISTLE-like shape with a "6".
Math symbols on the cupboard read:
((DIAMOND x STAR) minus (SQUARE x CIRCLE)) divided by THISTLE)
Yes it's a division, with the numerator getting divided by its denominator.
And obviously the denominator is THISTLE, so it's divided by 6.
As I wrote above in the hint, I actually love to mix myself a LEMONADE with less sugar, by using a small amount of thick orangeade syrup, and then filling the glass up with water up to the brim. The principle is the same: 1 part of syrup against 8 parts or even 9 with water, depending on temperature and my mood =)
This is what you have to do here: the numbers shown on the kitchen access card are *MIXING RATIOS*.
One value is known from the SAKE: it's 135.
So from
SOY (5) / SUGAR (3) / SAKE (1) / MIRIN (1)
you will get
SOY (5x135) / SUGAR (3x135) / SAKE (1x135) / MIRIN (1x135)
or
SOY : 675 / SUGAR : 405 / SAKE : 135 / MIRIN : 135
Now let's "translate" the NUMERATOR:
(diamond x star) minus (square x circle)
gets us
(SAKE x SOY) minus (MIRIN x SUGAR)
or 91125 ./. 54675 = 36450
Divided by 6 (as indicated by the denominator) gets us the final number 6075.
HEUREKA !!!

-TALL CUPBOARD (opened with code from kitchen)

On the 10,000 YEN-NOTE you found in the kitchen, you can read B88H58W90.

like to donate her some food so she's no longer skin + bones)

-4-COLOR BARREL
-----------------
You probably did notice that the TIC TAC TOE CLUES are all one definite color, right?
Well, that's because the color hasn't been selected by pure luck.
GREEN SIDE: use TIC-TAC-TOE CLUE from left section of BEDROOM.
YELLOW SIDE: use TIC-TAC-TOE CLUE from ceiling of upstairs room (where you saw squirrel)
RED SIDE: use TIC-TAC-TOE CLUE from CALENDAR in toilet (January month)
BLUE SIDE: use TIC-TAC-TOE CLUE from FRIDGE (ice cube maker!) Remember where the black arrow was and where it's
pointing to, too!
So you get:
(YELLOW) O = knife / - = empty
- - O

The cross is shaped like a cross. Yes it is, but the keypad somehow is too, isn't it?
Well, I think so. Mentally place the cross onto the keypad and get the security code.
Remember that it ends on a zero (bathroom mirror!)
Solution:
4 - 5 - 6 - 2 - 5 - 8 - 0
(Don't forget to press "E" pad to execute the code!)
--------------------------------------------
-REDROOM (6th time) - SECURITY PANEL (BONUS)

So you want the perfect ending, don't you?
Well, there you are. The cross is shaped like a cross. And when it's turned by 180 degrees, it's STILL
shaped like a cross but ... of course ... will cover different keys on the keypad.
And the winner ... erm ... the solution is:
9 - 8 - 7 - 0 - 8 - 5 - 2
Arbeitslooser thank you very much. good job
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. That must have been my toughest ever, also in terms of DIMENSIONS.
ReplyDelete8 parts !!!!
But I think the helluva lot of work I put into my WT is at least one humble way of saying "thank you" to the game author, who (seriously!) must have been programming several months on this one - maybe one whole year. (Remember there were even cut scenes!)
@arbeitslooser, what to say about writing such a walkthough? The word that describes it the best along with your efforts is amazing. Congratulations, honest. Absolutely great!
ReplyDeleteWell, I think this is one of those games that don't come very often and make you be certain about why we all like escape games this much, due to the size and the difficulty of it. I feel I should contribute with some clarification for it, which it was not directly your fault, but a glitch in the game that made everyone (me included the first time I played, must confess) to try the most obvious of the codes for a more elaborated puzzle... and this glitch practically ruined it.
Quoting that part in your WT:
"Read the NOTE on the left of the inside of the cupboard door, note the "here" word, the "3=D" and the "green_5 / orange_2 / gray_4 / blue_1" hint, the latter of which still does not make sense to you.
But...at least the former does! Open PURPLE BOX, put "HERE" as the password and - yeah, it opened! (Unusually easy, even.)"
If you try to open that purple box with ANY letter at the end (excluding 'A') it opens... HERF, HERU, HERQ. Try any. It opens.
Everyone trying 'HERE' as the password was really an unlucky coincidence for, like I said above, a more elaborated puzzle.
OK now, look at the color of the square where the word 'here' is. Notice it is the same color of the floor where 'you' are in the game (here).
The #3 inside the Red square = D tells you to take the 3rd letter of the name of the room with the Red floor. REDROOM.
In the same way, the "green_5 / orange_2 / gray_4 / blue_1" hint says to get:
5th letter of the room with Green floor.
KITCHEN
2nd letter of the room with Orange floor.
BEDROOM
4th letter of the room with Gray floor.
ENTRANCE
1st letter of the room with Blue floor.
BEDROOM
The code for the purple box is actually HERB, but this bug in particular made it open with any letter at the end getting past the correct one (B), and that's why it doesn't open with 'A'
Such a shame, uh...?

ReplyDeleteThis was even more valuable than my whole walkthrough!!
ReplyDeleteEdgar, what do you think, how long have I been racking my brains about this strange " 5 2 4 1 " combination?
For one, 5 + 2 + 4 + 1 adds up to 12, which is the number of knives you use in the barrel...BUT...only some colors did match, not all of them!
So a huge thanks for finally making me able to rest my brains on that confusing bit.
Yes there was some good reason why I didn't mention that note inside the cupboard ever again! =D
BTW, have you ever figured out that stuff on one of the papers, (up-arrow) BBB, (right-arrow) BBB and so on?
I thought it's the B key on the video mini-game, but Valérie got the code word even without messing wit the button, so it must mean something else...
As far as I know, the video game has to be solved in the sequence you mention. If you press START in it, you see a bunch of the little men randomly moving around without any sense... BUT it is until you press the buttons in the correct sequence when you actually see them spelling letters. If you can't read them or if you missed one of them, pressing START again re-start the spelling, and trust me on this, it is not hard at all to see them. Try it.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the sequence is (after pressing START to turn the game on):
RIGHT-B-B-B
UP-B-B-B
LEFT-B-B-B
DOWN-B-B-B
START
where, like you correctly assume, B stands for the B key. All the other are the 4 buttons to the left side of the video game.
LOL, @arbeitslooser! Here I go as well!
See above my typo-corrected original post, which has been beaten to it by your post due to writing simultaneously...
ReplyDeleteWell my problem was that I *DID* try it out on the mini-game but there was no change in movement, so I gave up. But I can retry, it's right at the beginning of the game (no locked drawers, cupboards, hidden compartments ;))
Fantastic walkthrough, arbeitslooser. I came back to see if someone dared to write one, and I see that you have been brave enough to do it. KUDOS!!
ReplyDeletearbeitslooser,
ReplyDeleteI subscribe @escapism's opinion - just spiffing (& funny ☻)!
Chapeau!!!

ReplyDelete* looking, doggy-eyed *
Thanks for the praise, everyone =)
Funny, really? Well, yes I made cautious attempts to put in some bits (!!) of humor here and there, but I also took care not to exaggerate it.
However, people like Rookwings usually can double or triple the humor and it's still damn entertaining (of not to say: more than ever!).But she's a native speaker, unlike me, so as a foreigner, it's rather a winner if you just use humor sparsely, otherwise they could get the impression you're trying hard to be funny.
I finally got around to playing this, and I really have to say
ReplyDelete1. @arbeitslooser: OUTSTANDING WT!!!
2. @Edgar: Thank you so much for explaining what the numbers in colored boxes were all about, and the BBB clue to see the letters. I couldn't see the letters at all before, and I also couldn't figure out why the BBB clue went dark when I never used it!
