The Blue Chamber

I haven't figured it out yet, but I have a feeling I'm not going to get much work done today now.

Oh frell, there's another one? I still haven't been able to get past the Viridian Room, because of technical difficulties. It would NOT let me pick up an item I knew I needed, no matter how much I clicked on it. [Mad]

SPOILERS

OK, I've sent out a message and gotten a cryptic response back. I don't know what to do with it.

I found the money.

The hardest part, for me, was figuring out the phone number. The message is an oblique but largely useless clue.

If you're stuck on the phone number, you probably have everything you need to figure it out. Just think, how many digits are in a phone number? That's what did it for me.

Anything special with the window shade?

I also can't figure out the number, but maybe I don't have everything. I figure it must be the window shade..

The window shade is a red herring.

For the phone number, you will need to look at a real telephone, and not just the one in the game.

But a real phone number has 7 numbers, the letters only make 6. I drew a funny face on the money...I looked out the window for the Tel. #. and even zoomed in, no luck....

I assume it has something to do with the letters on the phone buttons, but I still don't get it. *sighs*

The letters only make six, but your correspondent adds another figure.

Doh! Just caved in and looked at the walkthrough, and I'm getting stuck cause I'm on my work computer and it has no speakers [Smile] So I had actually gotten the phone number right but didn't know it cause I couldn't hear the response.

I guess it helps to have the sound on, which I didn't. So I dial this number and he says ok...but the door is still locked....Doh.

Dang, yes I should have had the sound on. I had it figured out before, but had no idea because I didn't hear the answer back.

Cay,
Where are you stuck? I can't get the friggin battery (at least I'm pretty sure I need a battery). I'm doing the Viridian room right now, and it's way spookier. I think I'm trapped in by a ghost of a guy who committed suicide and whose skeleton is right in the room with me. Freaky stuff.

MrSquicky - I found the battery but hesitate to tell in open forum. Can I email you?

I found a bunch of stuff in the viridian room but don't know what to do with it. (never got out of the crimson room and gave up on it)

Also; are you able to look under the bed.

I can't even get back to the foot of the bed again - I found out it does not save your settings, so if you leave it you start over. [Frown] [Grumble]

and I promised DH that he could have the computer back at 1 p.m. [Grumble] [Grumble] [Grumble] [Grumble] [Grumble]

Cay,
Nevermind, I beat the Viridian Room (that last character was a big pain in the butt to find) and I went back to the Crimson Room and found the battery by random clicking. I still don't know how you are supposed to think that clicking there will let you look in a new place. Now I can't seem to figure out the code. Oh well.

edit:
Teshi,
I haven't been able to look under the bed, but there is more to get on the bed than is first obvious. You should get two items from it when you're looking directly at it.

Son of a b...., if you're having trouble with the Crimson Room code, start the game over and do it. There's no trick to it. It just didn't go in the first time for me (or it looks like for Chad either). Man, I was thinking, the paper's upside down and backwards mostly, so I was reversing the letters and making 6 into 9 and 2 into 5. But no, it just needed a restart. Stupid windows type game.

My favorite by far is the Viridian room. Except for the 6th character, there weren't any really annoying problems and it was just way spooky.
