Hmmm, despite the 'straightforwardness' of the blue room I'm stuck
Don't want a clue quite just yet though
I seem to be able to do nearly everything in the Viridian room except for this bicycle lock combination
Any hints?

Hmmm, already read through it about six times?
Maybe I'll come back to it later, that can help with inspiration sometimes.

I haven't had much luck with the blue chamber...
I'm probably only one step away, but it seems like I've done everything I can at the moment.

A knowledge of text messaging would be handy.

Either that or a landline phone with letters printed on the numbers.

I've tried 'typing' in the h e l p m e letters/numbers (and hlpme) If it's more difficult than that because I don't do txtspk.. Oh, well.

Baron Grim Posted Sep 8, 2004
I think the number changes every time you play, so you'll have to find the clue for the number. It's been awhile since I did that one so I can't remember where it was.

Spoiler/Help warning If you don't want to view it, scroll down very very fast.
You're along the right lines with dialling HELP ME. Remember that there's a skull on the paper too that you have to dial. What on a phone looks like a skull? Where does it come on the page?

Viridian room - got everything (I think), but what do I do with the hair? And is it important which symbols go on which numbers on the dice? And then what do I do with it? I assume the beer has to be cold before dinging the bell.
All help appreciated before I throw my mouse in the bin!

I have the same problem with the safe in the crimson room. I went to the url, checked the table for the code, entered it and tried the key and keep being told the number is wrong...

Strange. Maybe try clearing out your cookies for the site and reloading the page. It might just be a problem with an old cache or something?
Worked just fine for me.
