I presume i’ve found everything. I’ve found:
- red shape
- green shape
- blue shape
- white shape
I presume these shapes go in the thing on the wall which i have the keys too. I also have both pieces of paper. If anyone has a hint of what to do next that would be great.

There are only 4! = 24 permutations to try. It doesn’t really take that long just to try them all.
I’ll save you the trouble: Blue, red, white, green.
Still, it’s fairly irritating that there doesn’t appear to be a more reasonable way to determine this. I suppose that it is cyclically the order which they appear around the room. There’s no real reason why you’d guess that though, and even if you did, it still leaves four (or eight) possibilities.
The second piece of paper (let alone everything else) is rather hard to find without zooming in on everything in the room and carefully examining every little line. It’s on the back-left edge of the big brown box, as viewed from the perspective where the safe is visible. It’s sticking out a very very tiny amount — the white of the paper is not visible at all if you don’t zoom in.

The right order of the coloured pieces can be found under the shelf.

where to find the red square?
posted by Dennis on September 4th, 2007 at 5:47 am
ok, I found the red square behind the computer…what to do now? I put all the shapes in correct order, the computer turns on but what is the password? The number on the two pieces doesnt work…

Just completed it.

Thomas: Cool, I thought it was a bit odd for there not to be something like that around.
Dennis: Perhaps you’re misinterpreting the number? It’s sort of poorly written. That last digit is intended to be a 9, not a 4.

If you go to look under the bed, you can see an edge of it jutting out above the blanket.

You have to get the right view.

dude i wouldve never even known where to begin if yall wouldnt have wrote pretty much all the answers on here.like the order in which the colors go in[[i wouldve given up]] and that the last number was a 4 instead of a 9 for the password for the computer that opens the safe where u get the keys to leave the room.[[yeah now i jus gave all the answers]] the white piece is by something white.blue by something blue.green by something green and red by something electronic that turns on[[computer.]]
kthnx.but if u give out the all the answers that takes away from all the fun of the game.the whole point is gone.

I really like this kind of games, but I simply couldn’t find anything without looking at hints - and even then I had to use the Flash Zoom-In feature. To me this is annoying, not challenging.
Anyway I appreciate the idea of the site, I’ve seen here some games which I already know so I hope to find more good ones

this is ridiculous, how on earth are we supposed to see those tiny objects??? impossible to find them without walkthrough
waste of time playing this game
whoever designs this game should read the comments and improve on the future games!!!

Sorry, it was me who made the game. Everyone usually complains how easy my escape games are so I made them harder, but obviously went a little too far in the wrong direction.
I’ll make the next game for shut.in a lot better!

WALKTHROUGH:
1 Click right once and keep clicking purple book until you are zoomed right in. Click on the tiny white dot on the top left corner of the purple book to find keys.
2 Get into the view where you can see the green book zoomed in. Click the very top of the green book (looks black) towards the right side until you find the green circle.
3 Zoom in on powerpoint below bookshelf and click right side to take a white rectangle.
4 Continue right until you are looking under the bed. On the blanket above there is a black dot sticking up in about the middle of the blanket. Click it to get blue triangle.
5 Continue right and zoom in on pencil tin. There’s a white dot sticking up at the back of it. Click it to get half a piece of paper.
6 Zoom in on computer harddrive under desk and click that black dot sticking up at the back of it, in the middle.
7 Continue right until you are in the view where you can see both the safe and the box. Towards the bottom of the back of the box there is a tiny black dot sticking out into the shadow. You have to click right on the line of the back of the box to get it. It is the second half of the paper.
8 Go back to the bookshelf and look under it to see the order of shapes (Triangle, square, rectangle, circle).
9 Go left to the white power box and open it. Place the shapes in the order shown under bookshelf. Then click the power knob.
10 Go to computer screen and type in the code off the two pieces of paper put together- 328649
11 The safe is now open. Open the safe and get the keys.
12 Use keys on door and escape.
