W’hey I did it!

Thank you for the help I received in cracking the safe although, in the end, it was a comment from a friend that made it click (excuse the pun) home. I had been counting clicks as I turned the dial but that turned out not to be the way to do it. For anyone else struggling try the following. My number was 27R31LXX(13)R23L. So starting on the right I turned the dial until it reached all the way round to the 27th mark on the dial then returning back the way I came past 0 until it got to the 31st marker on the dial, back again past 0 and all the way round to 13 then reversed back past 0 to 23.

Hope that that makes sense because it doesn’t seem to match what other people have said but maybe the game sets more than one way of cracking the safe.

You need 4 positional ‘settings’ – the number on the paper merely replaces an XX in the full combination. Do you have the full combo yet ? Also, I’m not sure it helps, but after screwing up a setting, I tried setting the wheel to zero, coming away from the safe back into the room and then reselecting the safe before trying new combinations. By the way, the combination is different for each new game.

Cheers but I have been there, done that, all to no avail. I have found and revealed the combination, substituted the XX, tried resetting it by starting a new game but the safe still will not open. Is there an additional button to press or turn? As far as I am aware I have worked out everything there is to do up to this point but I cannot get any further in the game until I crack the safe and get at the contents therein. Most frustrating.

Short answer is no!!

Does anyone else have a problem with getting into the safe? I have scoured the room and found loads of stuff really quickly but can’t get any further. From reading above it looks like I am stuck until I can get into the safe.

I have tried every which way to get in to the safe but cannot get it to open sesame. Yes I have found the code on the little bit of paper. I have tried turning the dial to the left, I have tried going right, I have used the numbers right to left, I have even tried them left to right, I have tried returning to 0 each time, I have tried doing it slowly, I have tried doing it fast, I’ve tried turning using the knob in the centre, the number dial on the outside and the depressons on the bottom edge of the rim. I’ve tried every tool, I’ve tried opening the torch between each number and the paper at the XXs. I have deleted my browser cache and browsing history but all to no avail – it just will not let me in there.

Any better ideas – or is it just time I gave up?

I did wonder if it was my laptop being decrepit but, if that was the case, how come everything else I have come across works fine.
