detention room

mission

"Pay Close Detention" — a story-progression mission (cannot be missed). Completing it unlocks the "Pay Close Attention" achievement/trophy.

layout

Prison-style block with individual cells (including the player's own cell), a central corridor with a pit in the middle, a locker on the other side of the corridor, and a main door surrounded by rotatable lights. Friends Gillian, Reed, and Kira are held behind bars in their cells.

walkthrough

  • Leave the room and look at the board on the wall to the left; rearrange the tiles in the 'Giving Spoilers' number to read the largest possible number — 9542.
  • Go to the other side of the corridor and input the code 9542 into the locker to open it; take the UV Light and equip it.
  • Talk to Gillian behind bars and take the gum from her; talk to Reed and take the yarn; talk to Kira and take the hook.
  • Go back to your cell and combine the yarn, hook, and chewed gum to create a fishing rod.
  • Use the fishing rod to fish the Warden's Key out of the pit in the middle of the corridor.
  • Use the Warden's Key on each of your friends' doors.
  • Use the UV light to read the shapes and arrows on the blackboards in each prison cell, then rotate the lights around the main door so they face the same direction as the arrows (not simply left or right).
  • Go through the door to proceed.

items

UV Light (from the 9542-coded locker), gum (Gillian), yarn (Reed), hook (Kira), fishing rod (crafted), Warden's Key (fished from the pit).

puzzle_codes
