> [@RainKing](#): > > Damn! I can’t get the numbers!!! Check out the url. I hate this game. Not in the Myst, I hate this game but love it, I mean I hate it. Pixel hunting is the most base, most uncreative gaming experience. Bah. ---

Bollocks to it anyway. Can’t be bothered to go any further. Stupid. Not just pixel hunting, but pixel hunting with time delays, e.g. You have to open and close the curtains about 10 times before the large ring drops out. Yawn. ---

Help me please! I have the power cord, the battery, the small ring, the big ring, the red box which the rings are now in the holes of, a cassette and three keys and an empty CD box. I’m stuck and I can’t find anything else - please just give the game away - I want to see how it ends! ---

I’m stuck and I can’t find anything else - please just give the game away - I want to see how it ends! IIRC you still need the metal rod to go into the slot at the bottom of the red box. It can be found between the pillow and the headboard of the bed. Place it in the slot, and the box should show you a short movie of a spastic freak who, at the end, indicates where you should click to open the wall safe. Punch in the number from the url … further spoiler ahead… which is 1994, put the unused key in the slot and you will get a screwdriver. Use it on the doorknob and you get out. Boring ending too, for all your trouble. Whoopie. ---
