There are 3 riddles in this room, each one uses different skills and understanding to complete the room in time! You can take each of the puzzles in no particular order but you’ll need to resolve them all to escape!

The first puzzle is related to the model on the left when you enter the room. This is based on Cesar encryption.

For the seconde puzzle, both player have to listen carefully to audios and describe them with their voices to resolve the piano riddle.

The last one is on the little room at the back of the wagon, you will have to use the morse code to resolve it!

  • Solution: Scores
  • Solution: Suitcase

Solution: Model

The fundamentals to every escape game is to search everywhere, How 2 Escape doesn’t make an exception to the rule!

On the train painting above the model you will find a note with a codex code. You can encounter various codex codes, each one will lead you to a different answer.

Here is an example:

When the companion app player enter the codex code in his application, they will see the same painting as the player in the room. But with a twist : 2 different filters, an ultraviolet filter and a yellow filter.

The first filter will reveal 5 letters, the second a number. This looks like Caesar encryption!

A Caesar cipher consists in shifting the alphabet by a predetermined number of spaces. For example, by shifting the alphabet 3 spaces, B becomes E.

On the table in front of the painting you will find a wheel with two alphabet letters. When you turn the wheel a number indication will appear and help you decrypting the cipher. Put the wheel on the correct shifting so you just have to read the letters corresponding.

Here are the different solutions:

  • 5297 codex code: letters are QUAIH and number is +6, so the final code is WAGON
  • 7935 codex code: letters are HFOWB and number is +12, so the final code is TRAIN
  • 7693 codex code: letters are LFHDX and number is +7, so the final code is SMOKE
  • 4269 codex code: letters are JURRY and the number is +13, so the final code is WHEEL

Once that’s done, pick up the key.

Solution: Scores

On the companion app, you can find a voice recorder widget in which you can find an audio named “new_composition.wav”. You have to sing the melody to the player in the room. They have on their side 10 tapes with different names. Find the one you are singing to identify the melody.

Once you have the name, check the score available in your companion app widget ! The melody you are looking for is “Purple Floyd”, find the correct score between the 10 differents you can find in the widget. Once you find it, you’ll have to tell your mate which pedals must be pressed then which notes they have to play.

Once that’s done, pick up the key.

Solution: Suitcase

This puzzle is based on the morse code. There are 5 important objects on that part of the wagon: the radio, the phone, the wall light, the big light and the record. Each object is related to a morse code.

Here are some of the objects:

In the Companion app, there is a widge “Suitcase” in which you can find how to decode the morse cipher.

The voice recorder widget is important on this puzzle too. There are three audios named: “6am.wav”, “3pm.wav” and “11pm.wav”. But which one is important? There is a clock on the table. The time indicate which audio the Companion App player has to listen to.

Each audio tells a different story in which every object is mentioned in a specific order. This order will help you to find the code to open the suitcase.

  • 3pm.wav order: bight light, phone, record, radio, wall lamp
  • 11pm.wav order: record, big light, radio, phone, wall lamp
