    omg i have got to draw down the rooms
    its so confusing

    Here’s a description that should help you get out. I’m not calling it a walkthrough because I didn’t give any actual navigation instructions (no “turn right, open the door”); it might help to draw yourself a quick map as I did.
    Show

    It’s four nearly identical rooms. The views in each room are:
    -Green cabinet on the left, door on the right
    -Window with table, water jug/cooler on it
    -Wall with grey panel to the right (exit door to left in first room)
    -Wall with just a door on the left.

    Room 1: Show

    The green cabinet holds a cup o’ noodles. To the left on the floor is a green key. The water jug has a clue: red|violet. The green key opens both non-exit doors. The door next to the cabinet leads to room 2, and the other one leads to room 4. Can’t open the exit door yet, and the grey panel next to it doesn’t do anything yet either.

    Room 2: Show

    The water jug on the table holds water. Use it on the cup of noodles to get a clue: violet|yellow. There’s a bottle of blue liquid in the cabinet, and a paper with a clue on the floor to the left:
    Left: JFMAMJ_ASOND
    Right: AHI_OTUVWXY
    The “left” clue is obviously J, but I had to resort to trial-and-error to get M for “right”.
    The grey panel doesn’t yet do anything here, either. The green key opens the door on the otherwise blank wall, going back to room 1.

    Room 4: Show

    There’s a bottle of red liquid on the cabinet, and a two-letter combo safe inside. Use the clue from the paper in room 2 to open it and get a yellow key. The yellow key opens room 3 (accessible from either the door next to the cabinet in room 2, or the door by itself in room 4). The grey panel opens. Clicking inside toggles through the sequence “off-1-2-3”. (Yes, there’s a reason I’ve numbered the rooms as I have.) Set the panel to “1”, go to room 1, open the grey panel, get a white ball. Set it to “2”, go to room 2, open the panel, get a green ball.

    Room 3: Show

    If the panel in room 4 is set to “3”, the panel here yields a clue: yellow|green. There’s a yellow ball on the cabinet, and a safe inside with four round indentations on top. There’s a red ball in the water jug on the table. After retrieving the ball, you can use the jug and the contents of the two bottles to color the white ball violet. Put the balls on top of the safe in the correct order (you have all the necessary clues by now) to open it and get the blue exit key.

20. J says:

    @shaz: There are three clues around the place that give the order of the balls. Show

    Red|Violet is inside the water jug on the table in the first room.

    Show

    Violet|Yellow is inside the cup o’ noodles after you put water in and eat them.

    Show

    Yellow|Green is on the paper from the wall panel in room 3.

    Putting them all together, you get Show

    Red, Violet, Yellow, Green.

    Has anyone figured out the “right” clue for the two-letter combo? A clue which forces you to resort to trial-and-error bugs me. I noticed that the clue is Show

    in alphabetical order, but that only narrows it down to five choices. I don’t see anything in the letter-number correspondences (1, 8, 9, [13],15, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25), there’s no pattern I can detect in the shapes of the letters, I can’t think of any set of words (or anything else) that has 11 elements, and no amount of rearrangement will yield a word out of these letters.

    What am I missing?

    For figuring out the right clue
    Show

    All of the letters shown, when split in half vertically, are identical on both sides. If you folded them in half they would be the same. You just have to figure out which other letter in the alphabet is like that, which is M.

    Thanks, bordchik. The “U” was throwing me off, because I write it asymmetrically even in uppercase.
