Crain’s Room is a Japanese Room Escape game with several endings that seems to work only with Internet Explorer. If you are using IE 6 or IE 7, you can play this game on the author’s site. We have decided to host the game to offer an alternative link to people who are using another browser: have fun!

    Found the computer password on another site (you need to read Japanese to figure it out based on the game clues).
    Show

    It’s something about the year Edison invented the phonograph. Or was it the lightbulb? Don’t remember, but the answer is 1877.

    Has anyone found more than one ending? (Can you even tell if it’s a different ending if you don’t know Japanese?)

22. shaz says:

    January 18, 2008 at 11:22 am

    Walkthrough
    Show

    Click the space under the door until you get a wooden stick or ruler or whatever it is. Go right, get the trashcan.

    Show

    Click behind the bookcase (bottom left) until you see the credit card. Use the stick to get it. There will still be some black squiggles on the floor where the card was, which may be part of the clue for the computer password, but I don’t even have a Japanese character set installed on this computer, so I have no hope of figuring out what it says.

    Show

    Go right to the desk. Get the glasses (optional?). Get the mallet from the top right drawer. Use the credit card to open the second drawer and get the box cutter. (There’s no animation of the drawers opening or anything, you just get the items when you click on the drawers.) Get the screwdriver from the pencil holder on top of the desk.

    Show

    Go left, back to the bookcase. Use the box cutter on the top of the cardboard box to get the chainsaw. Use the chainsaw on the back wall of the bookcase (the empty spot on the top left, next to the white sign) to get a piece of wood.

    Show

    Use “about item” on the piece of wood and click the top right corner to flip it over. Use the screwdriver to get out the gray thing – it’s a part of a key.

    Show

    Go right twice until you see the briefcase. Use the mallet on the flashlight-picture-whateveritis on the wall. (I think it’s supposed to be a heat gun. Either that or a very strange spaceship.) Get the object.

    Show

    There will be more writing where the heat gun used to be, as well as under the scroll on the left. Once again, I believe these are the clues for the computer password, but I can’t read them.

    Show

    Go left, back to the computer. Click on the computer screen and enter the password: 1877. Click the bottom link. You’ll get a black key. (How does that work, anyway? Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, anyone?)

    Show

    Go right to the briefcase and use the black key to open it. Use the trashcan on the slot – a piece of the plastic gets cut out. Get the piece and use “about item” to look at it. Use the heat gun to shrink it. (See why I think it’s supposed to be a heat gun?)

    Show

    Look at the grey key piece with “about item” and put the now-shrunken keyhead on its end to get a complete key.

    Show

    Use the key on the door to exit the room.

    Show

    You’ll note that the glasses were not used for anything. If you click on the mirror with the glasses, the glasses get greyed out, but nothing else happens that I can tell. This may be more of the language barrier at work, or it may be a red herring.

29. Reka says:

    January 18, 2008 at 1:48 pm

    I’m not sure there are other endings, or if there are, *nobody* has found them yet.

    I found a video walkthrough on YouTube. Veddy strange. :)

    When I finish it the way it is mentioned here it says “normal end” so it is for sure that there have to be others. But sadly I cannot read more in this game =(

    @Reka: Show

    You can put on the glasses by selecting them and clicking on the mirror. I think you’re supposed to do that before you can read the clues (but I don’t speak Japanese anyway).

34. ghghgh says:

    January 28, 2008 at 1:33 pm
