Heeelp, i cant the first one with the books:/
Hey, where are you stuck on?
The one with all the books, Green, blue, puple and brown. cant figure it out
If you read the clue on the table, or talk to Mimi, she tells you that you will need to subtract as well.
For all the books you have seen, they are recorded in the recollections tab. So you can count directly from there.
i have already tried allt of that. but i cant seems to get it righ
How many books have you collected up until? From what I can remember, 1 blue book and 1 purple book doesn't count.
This game is really good! The design and atmosphere are top notch. I might suggest lowering the rain volume a bit, but otherwise, this has been very solid. Unfortunately, I have hit a roadblock
I've gone over the bedroom and bathroom a million times, and have no idea what to do next. I've found "get" "ofblood" and "youcan", and I've got the small key, but it doesn't go to anything in those rooms or the library. Hard stuck. :/
Hello, thank you for your feedback! We are delighted to hear you've been enjoying our demo so far :) We're still making adjustments to in-game volumes, so in the meantime we recommend lowering the BGS volume in the options menu to better listen out for other environmental sounds.
If you've read the writing displayed above the cabinet in the same room as the small key, notice anything unusual about how some letters are colored? What significance could they have in relation to the clues gathered? We'll be glad to assist you with more hints, so feel free to ask further if you'd like them!
You're so close to solving this puzzle, the last clue might just be under your feet ;)
I know there's something under the tiger rug, but I have no idea what to do about it. I've read the clue and see the color order, but that's another stump, it only shows three colors but the mask asks for four parts. I'm definitely going to need more help because I'm seriously stuck
Try interacting with the head of the tiger rug while facing it
Ah, thanks! Okay, finally finished the demo
given what I've seen of comments from others, some pieces of the last puzzle in the demo might need work, but otherwise, this game is really good
I will be playing this live tomorrow 4/3 around 6-630 PM EST =).

Is The Puzzle at the End Even Possible?
Yeah it's possible to clear the puzzle, just a bit difficult and requires reading very carefully and understanding the clues
