Oh, I’m so confused. I have the head in the diskette box and the tiles, but I think I missed picking up the glass box from one of the other rooms. How do I go back? This game is evil by the way. ---

Thanks for the link **StephenG** , that was quite an adventure (and much cheaper than a cruise). Regarding Intellilock: I really enjoyed it until I realized there was an odd-man-out in every set. For most of the puzzle I played it like _Simon_ and it was more of a memory challenge. When the bright pinwheels came out I caught on and it became a lot easier to solve. I could do that puzzle in my sleep now.By the way: How cool are these spoiler boxes? I’ve been away and this is the first thread I’ve seen them in. Very cool. If you haven’t played yet, make sure you don’t have any deadlines coming up before you start. I look forward to playing other similar games. -wm ---

Can somebody tell me how to get out of the three-room suite one? I’ve gotten the fire in the fireplace, I’ve gotten all the pieces in the security box all sliced up… Now what? Somebody tell me? Please? ---

[spoiler]Like **Shadowwarrior** said, place the triangle bits back where they came from so they form a sort of triangle, except with a slot on the right side. After placing the last one, if you did it right, a piece of metal will come out of the lock and fit into the slot, unlocking the door. ---

Am I supposed to catch a rat in the room next to the walking bridge? I can use the diskette box as a rat trap, but then it doesn’t do anything. I also put the stones in the glass device under the walking bridge but when I move them around nothing happens. ---

Oh wait, I got it… _thank you!_ _Feels a bit stupid for not trying that earlier_ Morelin: Highlight the boxes with your cursor. The words will show up. Now for the next level… I introduced this game to my friends. Now half of my entire class is going slowly insane trying to solve all the levels… 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-game-beware/135734.md?page=5) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-game-beware/135734.md?page=7)
