House Escape Textures




1st floor
- The wooden textured box is where the players will enter the password given from the 1st part of the 2nd challenge. The book stand is where the players will get the 3rd part's password. The yellow and the purple box is where the players will enter the code and the key to access the secured room.

2nd floor
- The red box is where the players will enter the color codes shown on the screen at the top of the bed opposite of the seat. A key will be given to them if they enter correctly.

- The pink board and the other planks can be moved by touching the books on the shelf. Players must make the planks formed a plane and it will show the code.

Well that wraps up the main plot of the house escape. Hopefully the testers find it hard :p
