SSSG11: Escape From Nowhere

SSSG11

Play it here:

You start in a hotel bedroom. You find a piece of paper under the table-leg. It is a map. Very useful.

The drawer in the bedside table is locked - you need to find a key.

In the en-suite bathroom, to your left, very white, you manage to loosen a tile on the wall in front of you. Obviously in a vandalising frame of mind, you now prise as many tiles as you can off the wall, revealing pipework behind. Three pipes: yellow blue and red.

Turning the stopcock on the blue pipe you turn on the water. And a key falls to the ground. However you soon find it doesn't fit the bedside table.

Explore the hotel a bit. You will find vitamins, b12, under a towel by the basin in downstairs (floor1) bedroom's en-suite bathroom. A note in that bedroom says 'I lost my book'.

You can find the book under the awful pink frilly cushions on the sofa thing in lounge2 nearby on floor 1.

Through the piano lounge to the dining area. A note on the table warns about a loose floor tile - but I can't find one in there.

Another note/page can't be picked up till you have the book you lost. You read that missing page to find the symbol on it looks like the one in one of the bedrooms, (bedroom 2, next to your room) and you are told the number it corresponds to (it changes each time you play).
In that room you try the number you have on the safe and it opens and gives you another page for your book!

Back to the dining area and exploring further you find a screwdriver under a bowl in the second kitchen and a bottle of vinegar in the first kitchen.

The screwdriver helps you loosen a floor tile in the hall - called Landing in the game - actually it's a large piece of the wooden dance-floor at the foot of the staircase slightly to the right. You find a safe with a symbol - need to find the page with that symbol on.

In Lounge1 with the three vials (typo vile - oops) LXIX is written to the left of the vials. Roman numerals - sixty nine (four greens, three blue and four red).

This key opens your bedside drawer (bedroom1). Inside is a sheet of music ( ECFD)

In the Under Construction room in the basement there is a very hard to see bottle on the table ahead of you. It is a see-through plastic bottle with a green top, to the left of the junk on that table (just above the left table-lefg).

Put the vinegar and the vitamins into the bottle and a chemical reaction happens. Use this on the floor stain in the basement hallway. Message: You used the chemical and something has appeared in the stain. You get a key. It opens the wall panel in the control room. Inside are four three way switches and I have no idea .. but maybe the squiggle in the floor where you use the chemical shows the positions -
looks like first one middle second top third bottom last middle?? Yes, that works, and you hear a 'magical' sort of noise but what happened?

It unlocks the piano! Go there and try the music ( ECFD). Note that the piano still won't work if you make the mistake of clicking the switch panel after you hear the noise, so if you have made this mistake, go back and do the switches again.

You will hear the notes of the piano as you play them. Then you are told a new area has been unlocked. Go upstairs and along the corridor to the end, bedroom4. Another safe with a squiggle which you should have in your book (different code each time).
Get another page.

In the Conference Room the whiteboard has a sum for you to do with all your squiggles. In this run-through I had 37+42+93 so far. Just need another one
that comes from the moveable piece of floor. In my game this time this last one is 4
so 37+42+93 +4 = 176. Yours will be different.

Go to the Conference Room - the room to the left of the control room - and put in your total (different each time) and you get a red gem.

You remember coming across a place on the wall in the corridor which says that something 'sets here'. Place the gem. Something has happened - continue down the corridor and out through the fire doors at the end. You are finished.

You made it out, but you may wish you hadn't bothered. It doesn't look like a very nice place to be. Better to have stayed inside sipping cocktails by the lake!
