I didn't end up finishing this map. Loved the intuitive puzzles. They were very unique, but the spiked wheels were too difficult to operate in VR. They just wouldn't do what the puzzle required and kept resetting or spin too quickly

For the spiked wheels: There are objects on the four shelves some of which correspond to the objects on the tablets that you placed to open the wall. Each spiked wheels middle spike must point to the matching object in the matching position as the wall tablets.

so how do you do the spiked wheels? none of these comments gave any help except that you have to match the tablet

Awesome map.
We had a little (maybe bug) with the eye we needed for the first puzzle, which was hidden in a tiny wooden box {/spoiler] otherwise, Great game!

Thank you @googmama, your comment about the key saved me, was going crazy. Great room but that key was hard. Loved the chandeliers

Loved both of your maps, would love to see more!

I got to the second room, got the goblet and the energy stones but now I can't find the next puzzle or even anything to interact with...

Great game, I was just an idiot in the second room so it took my way longer than it needed to.

This map was fun! And I can't believe it was your first. Please make more! :steamthumbsup:

Hardest part of the map was finding that red diamond key. Such an annoying place to put it, but everything else was great!
FelinaLain 19 Dec, 2022 @ 2:41pm 
I can't figure out where the key is for the big chest in the second room
I got the goblet, I got the spiked wheel puzzle, I'm missing the felstone, the scale, and a golden globe, and I can't find out what I missed...

So well done. Thank you very much.

Had a lot of fun with this one! Lots of subtle hints that tell you exactly what you're supposed to do without being a literal written instruction.

Except two things for me, which both may well just be because I'm dumb sometimes. I didn't notice the chandeliers... and I don't actually know how to solve the 4-wheels Puzzle. I was just Messing with them. Literally fell into the solution %D

Please make more maps.

Very cool map, very atmospheric, thank you very much!

Great map, we need more!

I have the 3 stones. When I place them on the plate nothing happens. I have the scales in place, have placed the ground stone and the goblet is filled.

Excellent room with excellent puzzles. No bug for me. Thank you very much CaptainCopper.

very nice map unfortunately i got stuck on the mug puzzle in the second room i look for it for 30 minutes and still couldn't find it but still an amazing map
daveyg34 18 Mar, 2022 @ 2:42pm 
I really enjoyed this escape room. The puzzles were great and I was really proud when looking around I realised that the lit candles go with the light, I had noticed that the chandeliers rotate, ages before but when I really looked I solved it. .

I would say, one critique would be placing the filled goblet for a long time, the courser wouldn't automatically snap to the position unless I was very careful, made solving it very confusing, maybe increase the hitbox if possible? .

Otherwise, as said before, great job!

I think I'm almost done, I missed something though.... It's very engaging!
-Swervin- 12 Mar, 2022 @ 4:16pm 
Great map! Love how the puzzles kept coming without knowing the end.
bob_tomlinson 10 Mar, 2022 @ 4:23pm 
I think this is the best map yet. It's absolutely brilliant!
robert 7 Mar, 2022 @ 11:58am 
Fun and creative!
TheHerdkiller 4 Mar, 2022 @ 5:34pm 
Very well designed. Thanks.
googmama 2 Mar, 2022 @ 8:48am 
OMG.... I wrote a comment and went back to the game screen, and... there was akey next to tha pillar. I think I'm a stupid I didn't even see it:steamfacepalm:
googmama 2 Mar, 2022 @ 8:40am 
I can't find the key to the wooden box with red diamond decorations. :( :steamsad:
Ohnoitsmarkie 2 Mar, 2022 @ 1:13am 
Interesting map! Took me 49 minutes, but damn.. I see there are a lot of pro players here..
Shynda 21 Feb, 2022 @ 1:55pm 
i totally missed the last key :(
nova 17 Feb, 2022 @ 3:33am 
A great room, we finished in about 11 minutes with 2 people. Looking forward to more of your rooms!
aeciru 15 Feb, 2022 @ 6:40pm 
I really enjoyed this one too! Funnily enough it took me forever to find the key in plain sight than to do any of the other puzzles haha. Loved it!
jed.weinstock 11 Feb, 2022 @ 7:59am 
So creative and well done! Bravo!
AlleyCrawler 10 Feb, 2022 @ 9:20pm 
Awesome first room!
CaptainCopper  [author] 10 Feb, 2022 @ 8:40pm 
@Tommy_NL Thank you for letting me know about the spikes! I did not know they were turntables and have fixed now. The tablets actually all have coins around the edges that match up with coins on the walls so you know which goes where. Thanks for playing!
Teumy 10 Feb, 2022 @ 1:04pm 
Oh and the spikes on the wheels are turnables as well which threw me off dearly since you don't actually need to use those
Teumy 10 Feb, 2022 @ 1:01pm 
Awesome room. Spend around 35 minutes in it. Took longer than had to haha, Slowed down on one part because I didn't think logical and got stuck for a while on the Tablet placement couldn't find anything in the room to connect to the order so I jailbroke it. Very nice and polished room you've got here!
lisaanne3 9 Feb, 2022 @ 9:15pm 
Fantastic map! Loved it. Looking forward to more ;)
hiiiih 7 Feb, 2022 @ 8:51pm 
great lil map!!!!
hydra 6 Feb, 2022 @ 8:26pm 
This one was fun and creative, I had a lot of fun in co-op!

@NLink Have you used the skull yet?
NLink 6 Feb, 2022 @ 5:53pm 
I can't find the Dagger to get the blue flower.

@Pennywise @ezKill42 @YeppeoGumiho I went back and looked at the Wheels and Spikes puzzle and I think @YeppeoGumiho had it on the nose, once you understand that it matches up with the images on the tablets you used to access this puzzle, and you realize the wheels turn, then you just need to figure out exactly which spike is the only one that will point at each correct object! I think this is a good puzzle, it brings in aspects from the previous puzzle as your goal and then asks you to be curious about what actions you can take and what the puzzles limitations are in order to solve it! Anyway, happy escaping :)
mia 5 Feb, 2022 @ 2:01pm 
great job, really love the atmosphere ! Resolved all by myself but I lost sooooooo much time on finding the wooden diamond key grrrrrr ;-) thanks a lot for the map :-)
deki 5 Feb, 2022 @ 10:33am 
pretty much all the puzzles were well thought out, unique and intuitive with the way you hinted at them and their solutions, which is all really refreshing to see.

my partner and i loved our time with it, it's very impressive for a first entry and we can't wait to see what you'll create next!
YeppeoGumiho 4 Feb, 2022 @ 8:33pm 
Wow! I'm impressed! I would have never guessed this was your first room! My party and I really enjoyed all the puzzles. My only suggestion is with the three spiked wheel which a few other comments had pointed out. We were able to understand that it matched up with the tablet, but since there are three spikes, we weren't sure which one to match up with. Maybe only have one spike, so it's like an arrow? Anyway, thank you for sharing your creation! ^-^
BC04ST3R 4 Feb, 2022 @ 7:55pm 
This one rocked!
ezKill42 4 Feb, 2022 @ 6:20pm 
One of the best I've seen so far :steamthumbsup::eskey: Fairly easy since you can only interact with important stuff (:steamhappy:) but that didn't make it a giveaway either! I too had a bit of trouble with the spiked wheels. At 1st I thought the empty spot was the pointer. Perhaps that could be made more clear. Excellent effort!
CaptainCopper  [author] 3 Feb, 2022 @ 7:38pm 
Hint for the Wheels and Spikes puzzle: Pay attention to the items that are depicted on the tablets that opened this shelf.
Pennywise 3 Feb, 2022 @ 6:48pm 
Really well done, I have a feeling this will become a very popular map!

I had to brute force one puzzle the one with the four wheels, each with 3 spikes.

Other than that I managed well, and finished in 20 minutes!
