Just finish the game and I have to say, it was fun using external sources to find some of the answers for the riddles, some are a bit of a pain to do like first code after you do the handcuffs, but nothing to bad. I'm guessing there's probably another ending, something with book you find. Overall I had fun.
Okay, I solved your puzzles, but I have some comments:
Escape room games should not rely on external tools to solve the puzzles. In order to solve this I had to:
Look up a cypher from a book (the cypher is too short to solve on its own, and there's an error in the 6th character)
Use a QR code reader (imagine if you were playing on your phone, you'd need another phone to read it)
Use a hash solver
reference a different alphabet (no spoiler)
Why is this a problem? Escape room games are supposed to put you in the position of the player trying to escape. Having to use external tools that the character would not have at their disposal breaks the experience.
What did i like? Firstly, the point and click interface was pretty decent. The inventory system was easy to work. The overall feel was decent. I would have liked to have played it full screen, however.
Also, what's the deal with the book? It has nothing to do with the game.
All this is meant to be positive criticism. I'm am not blasting your game, but merely my opinion.
Hello! Thank you for the feedback. It helps greatly.
I didn't add too much context on why the game was designed this way, but it was designed around a discord chat bot cypher/riddle game translated into RPG maker.
I agree that this is not a traditional room escape game and I apologize if it was misleading in that fashion. I can add a bit more info into the comments.
Again thank you for the feedback!
PS. The book does have a purpose, although I can't spoil for what!

I joined the discord server and can't do anything at all to ask questions.
I am stuck on the locker code can someone pls lmk where to find the answer!!!!!!
Hello! Glad you were able to join the discord. Its a bit quiet in there now since all the events are over.
All the hints you need for the locker code is on the key. Be sure to examine the key closely and keep a look out for key words in the description!
You can solve it! Be sure to take breaks from time to time.

It's a Caesar cypher. Look at they key again
I still don't understand but I'll keep trying. I am dumb
I'm playing this on google and for some reason i am getting a type error
I got it working by playing on edge
Thank you for the feedback! Ill take a look into it.
It looks intriguing, but...is the paper lying to me? "062" certainly looks like it should work.
Hello! Ill double check the riddle again. Good eye and thank you.
In fact 062 is the only solution that works given the clues. The first and second clue rule out the solution that you are looking for.
Hello,
I took a look at the first riddle and there is a confusing part I would need to change out. Thank you for the feedback.
I admire your tenacity in figuring out what they were looking for.
I mean, after figuring out two of the digits for sure, the other only was a matter of ten possible tries.
Hello, I made an update to the first riddle. Thank you again for the feedback!
Hello again. Update made! Thank you again for the feedback!
