Nigepico/Escape the Salon

Categories: Flash, Free, Games, Online, Room Escape, Walkthrough

Nigepico, also named Escape the Salon is the first Room Escape game created by the team behind IDAC (Il Destino, One-Off, The Privacy just to name a few of their hits). The game was released in summer 2005 and is only available in Japanese now available in both Japanese and English.
You find yourself trapped in a hair salon and like in most of Room Escape games, you will have to find out how to use the several items hidden everywhere in the salon.

Nigepico is a beautiful game, probably the easiest one in the series produced by IDAC.

Have fun!

Update: November 8, 07 – Nigepico 1.2, the English version is live!

   Nigepico/Escape the Salon walkthrough (original version)
   Show

   Get the green comb from the cart.
   Go to the second chair and get a small blue/grey box from behind bottle. Lift the chair and get the blue key.
   Go to third chair and get cell phone.
   Go to the desk and get the remote from the bookshelf (it’s above the stack of books on the upper shelf).
   Get the mouse from behind the laptop. Select the mouse in your inventory, click about items button, click the mouse twice and get the batteries.
   Put the batteries into the remote (click the bottom of the remote twice to open it and then click the batteries).
   Select the cell phone in your inventory, click about items and then click the small box to attach it. Click the cell phone again and get a Japanese message in your inventory. Close the window and click the phone again to get an “escape” message in your inventory.
   Click the Japanese message in your inventory and then the comb to get another message.
   Click the computer and turn it on (click the power button). Select the “escape” message in your inventory. Click the bottom left icon and get a code.
   Go back to the cash register and click the keypad. Enter the code, including the dots. OK appears on the screen.
   Use the blue key to open the cash register and get the silver key. Go to door closest to 4th chair and use the silver key to open it. Go in the second room.
   Look for a mirror shard in the basin, and for the bust (model girl’s head) under that same basin. Get the hair dryer from behind the other chair.
   Go back to the air conditioner unit in the first room and use the remote to turn it off. Go to the big wall mirror, and then to the outlet next to it. Plug in the hair dryer. Go back and click on the big mirror to get a message.
   Go to the mirror above the second chair (from start point) and click the mirror shard. Get a new message in your inventory – combine this message with the comb message (click the comb message first and then the mirror message) and get a final message.
   Select the bust in your inventory. Click the right (somewhere in the hair) and find a razor blade.
   Go to the back of the third chair and slash it open with the blade to get a gold key.
   Use the key to escape through the glass door close to the desk. Congrats, you escaped the room (salon)!

20. Dominic says:

    April 17, 2007 at 9:59 am

    The air conditioner is behind the first chair you see when you go into the room that you have to use the silver key on and all you have to do is at the first screen you click somewhere almost out of the screen and another screen will show up and its right there.

44. Merlina says:

    November 7, 2007 at 1:14 pm

    Angela – you are playing version 1.2 of the game like me which is different, but I am stuck at that part because I cant figure out how to get into the room. Just like the key doesn’t fall like in the walkthrough above because that is for the first game. I know that you have to Show

    find what is in the photo, but it’s in the 2nd room which I can’t get to yet.

45. Mae says:

    November 7, 2007 at 2:56 pm

    I’m playing the Nigepico 1.2 version and I’m totally stuck… Show

    I need password for laptop and the pin to the register… I had 2 keys… used one n the other one i tried using on the doors n the register… yet still nothing. i used the hairdryer on the mirror n i used the letters on the screen towards the laptop n yet nothing… i tried the letters uppercase n lowercase… backwards and forwards… yet nothing… so i’m stumped! all i have left are the cell phone that isn’t helpin one bit for passwords or codes, the strangly shaped comb, razor, hairdryer, and a key. Is anyone else as stumped as I am????

46. caprice says:

    November 7, 2007 at 3:51 pm

    ² Angela and Merlina
    I have also that photo and search and search. Couldn find anything, but the silver key was there, on the floor before the door under the heater/airconditionner. And know I am stucked with that razor. Cant find that golden key. And still dont know whats the photo for. ;-)

    Walkthrough for version 1.2 (I tried to break it up so you only have to read one step at a time):

    Step 1. Show

    Start at the far left. Look in corner of room above the door and click on the speaker twice – it moves out of the way and you can take the tube of rust remover.

    Step 2. Show

    In the row of chairs, go to the one on the left where there is a cart next to the chair. Move it and pick up the green comb on the floor.

    Step 3. Show

    Move to the third chair from the left and pick up the cell phone from the seat.

    Step 4. Show

    Click on the last chair on the right so you can see the trash can from overhead. There is nothing in the can, but if you click to lift it and look up from underneath it, you can see next to the socket under the counter there is a business card. Get the code from the back of it.

    Step 5. Show

    Use the code from the card on the phone to get an email. Click on the email and it gives you another password.

    Step 6. Show

    Go over to the desk and turn on the laptop. Open the files and scroll down each of them until you come to one that has a code at the bottom.

    Step 7. Show

    Go back to the chairs to the second one and click to move it. Click on the floor to find a beetle and blue key. Take the key.

    Step 8. Show

    Go back to the cash register and put the code from the computer file into the key pad and use the key on the drawer. Look at the photo and remember what you see.

    Step 9. Show

    Go to the shelves next to the cash register and click on the slanted book on the bottom shelf to get the remote.

    Step 10. Show

    Click on the register so you can see the mouse behind the laptop. Take it.

    Step 11. Show

    Open the mouse and take out the batteries and then open the back of the remote and put them in.

    Step 12. Show

    Go over to the heater on the left wall at the end of the other chairs. click on it to move closer and then use the remote on it to turn it on. Watch a key fall out.

    Step 13. Show

    Go back to the door in the left corner (where you found the rust remover) and pick up the key on the floor in front of it.

    Step 14. Show

    Go around the chairs to the right until you come to a door. Use the key on it.

    Step 15. Show

    Face the chairs (turn right) and click to the left of the first chair (at the top) and pick up the dryer from the floor.

    Step 16. Show

    Go back and click on the right side of the broken mirror behind the second chair (like in the photograph) and pick up the piece of mirror. Note the mirror it shows.

    Step 17. Show

    On the floor near the second chair is a maniquinn head.

    Step 18. Show

    Use the comb on the wig and get to get the razor blade.

    Step 19. Show

    Use the rust remover on the blade.

    Step 20. Show

    Go back into the first room and click on the outlet near the big mirror (or is it a window?) and plug in the blowdryer.

    Step 21. Show

    Use the dryer on the mirror (hold down the left mouse key) until you can see the message clearly. You will hear the dryer running if you do it right.

    Step 22. Show

    Turn around and move to mirror you saw in your mirror piece (this is the second yellow chair – this is not what the mirror showed in my opinion). Use the piece of a mirror on that mirror (just drag it to the center) and you will see the reflection of the message (“WIECAR”).

    Step 23. Show

    Go to the laptop again and open the “Number” file. Move the comb over it until you see the letters “hthi.”

    Step 24. Show

    Use the mirror with it to combine the two messages. (“whitechair”).

    Step 25. Show

    Go over to the white chair and zoom in on it (you cannot do this until you have combined the messages) and use the razor on the top part of the chair. Take the gold key.

    Step 26. Show

    Use the key on the mirrored door in front of the desk and you are done. For some reason 2 more items appear in your inventory.

    This was the first walkthrough I’ve written. Hope it helps:) If I made any mistakes, please let me know.
