Key Room Escape

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

The 61st Room Escape game from 123Bee, Key Room Escape, is live!

No more Color switches in this one, but a room full of keys!

“You are locked up in the key room, and you will have to escape from the room by finding objects and using them accordingly.”

If I count well, the door in this room requires 25 keys to unlock! That is too much work for me today!

Have fun!

   This won’t be quick enough to tackle on a work break. Maybe later.

   I’m stuck too. Has anyone figured out the Show

   chess game? I can get past three moves and then I can’t do anything

   There’s a Show

   key on top of the large chest with all the key holes

   the key from the chest doesn’t go in the door, the other do. strange

   These games drive me nuts…they are so obscure! I can’t figure out all the puzzles and nothing clicks!! Anyone else having better luck?

   Yeah and it doesn’t Show

   fit the chest either

   Show

   When facing the door there are some keys you can find in the tiles

    Sadly, I’ve reached a point where if I see 123Bee on a title, I’m just not interested. These are getting worse and worse.

    Chess? Show

    You can reach the fool’s mate in three moves, not sure what that accomplishes. To make the final move with the queen, you have to click on the black pawn you wish to take, first.

    Keys so far:

    Show

    1-4 from the abstract art, 5 from the top of the dresser, 6 from inside a floor tile (looking at door, five tiles back, three from right wall), 7 inside side drawer second from top (opened by 6)

    Color board:

    Show

    I’d guess this has something to do with the clock puzzle. There is a word written near the top of the wall, “noon”, which corresponds to the time fixed on the clock puzzle.

    Clock puzzle:

    Show

    You can move some of the hands. Then they stop in certain positions. They stop entirely with 8:00 (yellow), 10:00 (orange) noon (green)), 6:00 (red), 8:00 (grey) and 10:00 (blue). Not sure if this does anything.

    Abstract art:

    Show

    Aside from the keys, clicking on the frame at 3:00 reveals a red light X diagram, somewhat like the right-angle one elsewhere on the wall. Not sure if this does anything.

12. Anemic says:

    April 6, 2009 at 1:54 pm

    More keys:

    Show

    8-9 (setting button clock to 10:00) and clicking on outlet, twice. 10-11 (setting it to 8:00) twice, 12 (setting it to 6:00). The colors of these keys seem to relate to the clock puzzle.

    BUG! Trying keys in the top side or front drawers can make them disappear entirely, without opening anything. Sigh.

13. Anemic says:

    April 6, 2009 at 2:03 pm

    Apparently, trying some (not all) of the keys in a top drawer moves them automatically to the door.

    Show

    Right now, I have 10 keys in the door, one in a drawer that it opened, and one that I haven’t figured out.

    Still haven’t figured out how to change the room color, or what to do with the red light diagrams.

14. Anemic says:

    April 6, 2009 at 2:13 pm

    Keys:

    Show

    13 – looking at door, click on left-most tile, four back from front wall. 14 – from opening bottom front door (with 13) (goes on wall). Can also get artifact keys from the clock buttons, but they can’t be moved or tried anywhere. So I’m not sure if the game is solvable from where I am – it seems a bit buggy.

15. Anemic says:

    April 6, 2009 at 2:23 pm

    Working on the chessboard:

    Show

    These moves correspond to the tiles on the floor, seen as you face the door. After you take the first two keys out, you can take a key from inside the tile where the queen ends up after mating the king (third over from the left, two from the back wall).

    The chessboard then returns to a normal setup, and the kings are flashing. You can click on each one, and obtain three more keys (why three and not two, I have no idea).

    15 – Blue key opens front drawer, second from top, 16 – obtained inside that drawer.

    17 – Green key opens front drawer, second from bottom, 18 – obtained inside that drawer.

    19 – Red key opens front middle drawer, 20 – obtained inside that drawer.

    22 – Yellow key opens side top drawer, 23 – obtained inside that drawer.

    There is a tiny red diagram inside side top drawer.

16. Anemic says:

    April 6, 2009 at 2:27 pm

    Door:

    Show

    I now have 15 keys on the door, one key I can’t figure out, and two artifacts that can’t be moved. When I placed one of the newer keys on the door, sparks flew. I can remove that key and place it back in my inventory.

17. Anemic says:

    April 6, 2009 at 2:45 pm

    Chessboard:

    Show

    Click on the rook in the bottom right corner (why, no idea). Get Key 23, and the chessboard now displays a red angle instead of pieces. New purple key opens top front drawer, giving you key 24. Like some of the other keys, it can be removed from the door and placed back in inventory. Two of the keys sparkle when you place them on the door. One sparkles when you place it on the side middle drawer. Clicking on the right side of the chessboard gives you another light diagram.

    Done for tonight. Need to shovel snow and get out of here.

    I’m not even going to bother, it’d be more entertaining watching a spider walk up the curtains…

    (which is what I’m actually doing as I type ;-) )

    Lamp on Ceiling:
    Show

    In the light below lamp, there is a shadow of what appears to be clock hands.

    Chess game:

    Show

    4th pawn from left–move up two spaces. Opponent’s pawn mirrors that move. Pawn is “locked”–cannot move anywhere.

    Show

    Bishop (3 spaces from left)–move diagonally three spaces. Opponent’s knight moves two spaces down, one space left. Bishop is now “locked.”

    Show

    Queen–move four spaces diagonally (left). Opponent’s other knight moves two spaces down, one space right. Queen is locked.

    Can’t figure out any other moves yet.

21. Anemic says:

    I went back and tried again. It’s apparently somewhat buggy with keys found using the clock buttons, so be careful.

    It’s actually a decent game, much better than 123’s recent efforts.

    Walkthrough:

    Show

    Examine picture on far wall, note angle of clock hands: 9:00.

    Examine drawing left of picture, note a right angle with five red dots.

    Look up at the light. Note the shadow on the wall shows an angle, using

    clock hands, of about 9:25.

    Show

    Examine chess board. Play chess. Don’t worry about making a mistake, as the game does not allow you to make any wrong moves.

    Begin with standard opening, D2-D4 (move white pawn in front of king forward two spaces). The opponent responds.

    Your turn. C1-F4, moving the left bishop diagonally to two spaces in front of the pawn on the right bishop’s side. The opponent responds.

    Your turn. E1-A5, moving the queen diagonally to the left side, three spaces in front of the pawn on the left rook’s side. The opponent responds.

    Your turn. Click on the black pawn in front of the left bishop, C7. This removes the pawn from the board. Now move A5-C7 (checkmate). Move the queen to the spot where you removed the black pawn. Nothing happens.

    (you have completed what’s known as a “fool’s mate,” the quickest checkmate possible in chess).

    Show

    Exit the board and turn right twice, so you’re facing the door.

    Note that the floor looks like a chess board. Click on the tiles you moved pieces to while playing chess.

    D4. Click on the tile as it’s centered and remove a key with a round yellow head.

    F4. Click on the tile as it’s centered and remove a key with a round light blue head.

    A5. Click on the tile as it’s centered and remove a key with a round dark blue head.

    C7. Click on the tile as it’s centered and remove a key with a round red head.

    Show

    Return to the chessboard. The pieces are back in their original spots, and the kings are flashing. Click on each one.

    Exit the board and face the door again. Click on the spaces where the kings were.

    D8. Click on the tile as it’s centered and remove a key with a round green head.

    D1. Click on the tile as it’s centered and remove a key with a round medium blue head.

    Show

    Look at the chest of drawers. It has ten drawers, five viewable in front, while you’re looking at the door. And five on the side, viewable while you’re looking at the right-side wall.

    It’s time to try keys. Examine the front drawers.

    The round medium blue head key fits in the second drawer from the top. Open it and remove a key with a red trapezoidal head.

    The round green head key fits in the second drawer from the bottom. Open it and remove a key with a light blue trapezoidal head.

    The round red head key fits in the middle drawer. Open it and remove a key with a dark blue trapezoidal head.

    The round dark blue head key fits in the bottom drawer. Open it and remove a key with a purple trapezoidal head.

    Examine the side drawers.

    The round light blue head key fits in the second drawer from the top. Open it and remove a key with a brown trapezoidal head.

    The round yellow head key fits in the top drawer. Open it and remove a key with a gold trapezoidal head. Note there’s a right angle with red dots in this drawer.

    Click the top of the chest of drawers. Take the gold key.

    Show

    Examine the abstract painting on the left wall. Click on the surface of the painting to find four more keys: a metal square-head key, a blue-green key, a copper key and a dark metal key.

    Click on the right side of the painting to reveal a red X with eight spots.

    Go back to the chessboard. Click on the white rook in the bottom right corner (H1). Take the key with the round purple head.

    Note that the chessboard now has an angle on it, no pieces. The angle looks like a clock at 3:05. Click on the right side of the chessboard to reveal a red plus sign with four spots.

    Go back to the chest of drawers.

    The round purple head key fits in the top drawer. Open it and remove a key with a green trapezoidal head.

    Show

    Focus in on the door. Place keys on the door. There are 24 key openings on the door, arranged in nine rows (4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 4, 1, 2 and 4 openings in the rows, counting down from the top).

    Place the blue-green key in position 7-1.

    Place the copper key in position 6-2.

    Place the dark metal key in position 6-3.

    Place the metal square-head key in position 3-1.

    Place the key with the brown trapezoidal head in position 2-2.

    Place the key with the gold trapezoidal head in position 5-1.

    Place the key with the gold trapezoidal head in position 5-2. Note the sparkles.

    Place the key with the light blue trapezoidal head in position 4-2.

    Place the key with the dark blue trapezoidal head in position 4-3.

    Place the key with the red trapezoidal head in position 8-1.

    Place the key with the green trapezoidal head in position 2-1.

    Show

    Now, look at the right-side wall. On the left side of the wall, there is a clock puzzle. Some of the hands on the clock faces can be moved, some can not.

    Arrange the clock hands until none of them can move. Each “V” on the board indicates a two-hour change. So when you’re finished, the board will read 8:00 (yellow), 10:00 (orange), 12:00 (green), 6:00 (red), 8:00 (grey) and 10:00 (blue).

    Click back, then click on the symbol at the top center of the wall. Note that it says “noon”.

    Show

    There are a series of buttons arranged in a clock shape on the center of the wall. Click to view them.

    You can find keys by clicking on the buttons corresponding to each time you found in the clock puzzle. Click on the center button as well, then click on the outlet on the right side.

    Create 6:00 and take a key with a blue oval head from the outlet.

    Create 8:00 and take a key with a red oval head from the outlet.

    Create 10:00 and take a key with a yellow oval head from the outlet.

    Create 8:00 again and take a key with a brown oval head from the outlet.

    Create 10:00 again and take a key with a green oval head from the outlet.

    Create 12:00 (you will have to click on the 12 button repeatedly for some reason) and take a key with an orange oval head from the outlet.

    Show

    Go back to the door.

    Place the key with the brown oval head in position 6-4.

    Place the key with the orange oval head in position 6-1.

    Place the key with the yellow oval head in position 1-4.

    Place the key with the blue oval head in position 1-3.

    Place the key with the green oval head in position 1-2.

    Place the key with the red oval head in position 1-1.

    Show

    Now go to the color board on the right side of the left wall. You can click on the color buttons.

    Click repeatedly on the blue button (it changes color) until you reveal a metal key with a blue inset.

    Click repeatedly on the green button (it changes color) until you reveal a metal key with a green inset.

    Click repeatedly on the red button (it changes color) until you reveal a metal key with a red inset.

    Go back to the chest of drawers, side view.

    The metal key with the red inset fits in the middle drawer. Open it and remove a key with a medium blue trapezoidal head.

    The metal key with the green inset fits in the bottom drawer. Open it and remove a key with a brown trapezoidal head.

    The metal key with the blue inset fits in the second drawer from the bottom. Open it and remove a key with an orange trapezoidal head.

    Go back to the door.

    Place the key with the brown trapezoidal head in position 9-3.

    Place the key with the orange trapezoidal head in position 8-2. Note the sparkles.

    Place the key with the medium blue trapezoidal head in position 9-2.

    Show

    Go back to the clock buttons.

    Now, remember the other times you found.

    Create 3:05 (from the chessboard) and take a key with a blue-green oval head from the outlet.

    Create 9:25 (from the lamp shadow) and take a key with a pink oval head from the outlet.

    Create 12:00 (from the word noon) and take a key with a dark red oval head from the outlet.

    Create 9:00 (from the clock hands picture) and take a key with a light blue oval head from the outlet.

    Show

    Go back to the door.

    Place the key with the dark red oval head in position 9-4.

    Place the key with the blue-green oval head in position 9-1.

    Place the key with the pink oval head in position 4-4. Note the sparkles.

    Place the key with the light blue oval head in position 4-1. Note more sparkles.

    Place the gold key (from the top of the chest of drawers) in the key hole on the side of the door. Congratulations.

    Show

    Be careful about how you use the clock buttons. You can create artifact keys that stick in your inventory. And getting the dark red key from the noon position can be very difficult.

    I have no idea what the four red figures with the dots mean. The game can be finished without doing anything with them, apparently.

    I’m with Anemic on these games. Every time I see 123Bee I am going to run a mile in future. Too obscure, too hard to figure out and too many bugs. I can’t even get the outlet to cough up the keys. No matter what order I push the buttons to set the clock to. Too much time taken out of my life that I will never get back……to the authors of the game….make them doable for heaven’s sake!

    thanks for the walkthrough anemic! it has a certain weird elegance to it…almost OCD. I think the creator has too much time on his/her hands. And so do I…off to work. :)

    Ok game, couldn’t never have got it without a walkthrough, but once again the numerous bugs spoil this game somewhat.

    I think I know the problem. I reckon that since 123bee are producing an escape game twice a week, they don’t have that much time to iron out the bugs and make a good escape game. I like it that they make new games frequently. That said, I would much prefer it if they would just release a game every week, or every fortnight, if that game was to be of a better standard then what 123bee are producing right now.
