Needs a few features before I could rate it highly. A few more hints built in (some of those were not intuitive at all) would help but a right-click to unequip an item would have been really, really nice.
This was a fun game! I would have liked some music in the background. My only complaint with the puzzles themselves is the one where you get the horseshoe magnet. I don't think there's any hint at all about what you're supposed to do.
I didn't find it the first time, but you find it by controlling the Robot when it is still in the tower.
i need help on heart puzzle
Could somebody explain the Heart Arrow puzzle to me? I got the solution after looking it up, and I still don't understand how you're supposed to figure it out on your own.
The black hearts point downwards, but the red hearts point to the right. you must make a path that links the green arrows together.
such a good game! (PFFT i definitely didnt look up how to do it... jk i needed a bit of help bc math ugh but i got a lot of it on my own lol)
Lovely!
this made me cry this hurt my brain so much but it's greathow do you open the cabinet on the right in the bathroom? and also how do i find the code for the door below the sink? i'm stuck lol
ok i opened the cabinet on the right, now i'm stuck with the codes haha
Such a good game, really cool ambience and graphics!!
thanks!
I've spent nearly 10 hours playing this game and the amount of time I spend truly shows how perfect it is. Glad I got to play this with a friend who is much smarter then me
9/10 Puzzle! The heart part was the only time I needed to take a break because my brain wasn't braining.
super fun game :)
World record. You guys got truly outgamed ;)
Loved this game!! There are great puzzles and graphics, and it is very fun to speedrun!
How in the name of fuck
I have managed to get it down to 2 minutes 21 seconds after many attempts.

I CANT GET THE STAR OUT OF THE TUBE HELP
you need to open the drawers at the desk in order:

so i've learned
Absolutely loved it! I thought it would take me a lot longer than it actually did (and im really bad at this type of games). Im someone who gives up after a few minutes of trying if im unable to get it but I never thought of giving up! I would recommend this to everyone (even if you're really bad at these types of games)!!
the graphics are insanely good on this, better than any other game I've ever played. it's also a good difficulty, it's not easy, but you won't just give up on it. it took me about 70 minutes to solve. I recommended this game to my friends and they also loved it. this game is genuinely a masterpiece. The only thing thing that could be improved is that when I finished the puzzle, 3 pieces were missing (I know you find one piece later) and I had to restart. but anyway, 5 stars, amazing game :)
This was amazing! Just played through as a family activity and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The initial room was incredible and we thought we won the game when we exited, only to reveal several more rooms with deep and layered puzzles that were a blast to figure out.
Everything from the aesthetics to the ingenuity of the puzzles was top notch. 5/5 stars. Would recommend to anyone interested in escape rooms, and for those that aren't, this might just get you interested!
Kudos Colorbomb!
colorbomb fan here
i enjoyed the fireworks after you click space =D
was it just me that saw the picture frame in the first room and felt the presence of a demon
OMG, there were puzzles that I thought I wouldn't be able to solve by myself😅 But I did it! Thank you for making this game, it was awesome!
good job!
I FINALLY FINISHED IT!
nice!
Took just under 2 hours to finish, really well put together, exactly what I was looking for. Reminds me a lot of Myst, some in the aesthetics, but mostly the general vibe and the way the pieces of the puzzles are all over the place rather than concentrated in the area of the puzzle itself.
good job! :)
i like how everybody else was stuck on the heart room but im over here stuck on the star in the first room still T^T
amazing game
Love this😭 one of the best room escape games I'veplayed on itch!
Bro this was so hard ;-; but super fun! I got stumped a bit, but I enjoyed every last second of it! Felt super rewarding the whole time! much love to devs!
how do i do the symbol puzzle next to the draws?
This is really good! I'm glad to have played it. Some really clever puzzles. Not at all too difficult, but I certainly was stumped a couple of times. Well done!
Really enjoyed this game! Got stuck a few times but solving the puzzles was a very gratifying feeling, and there were these eureka moments when you realised how things were connected. Not too difficult for beginners but may take longer.
nice game :) I love this game
Loved it! Played at work lmao. Finished with 1h 33m and 11secs and 3000 clicks :)
Great one, but on the math minigame the numbers disappeared after dragging them (though I did manage to figure out one of the symbols thanks to you putting them in sequential order), they didn't even appear after restarting the minigame, I believe this is not intentional.
that was really fun but im not gonna lie i did look up a tutorial in some parts i also never found the robot that was talked about in the book and i only used it on parts i got stuck on which was the star in the tube which i couldnt figure out how to get out but i ended with a time of 1hour 31minute and 52 second with a total of 5410 clicks
very good!
where do i put the monkey, and when do the minifigures come in?
for the monkey, check the green book for a clue.
for the statues, it will become apparent when they are to be used.
how do i get the heart off the ceiling in 2nd room (after spawn room)?
you don't
look closely at the blue animal device
