Took 1 hour 10 minutes.
1) call for help
2) search the room for the key
3) bash door
4) bash window
5) probe walls to find weak spots (knocking on different surfaces yields different sounds)
6) same for ceiling and floor
7) yell for help
8) hide to make the others believe you escaped (Mc Gyver style)
9) have a pizza delivered and run out when the door opens
10) find out the best solution on LW
11) smash the door one punch a day (also inspired by a series but won’t spoil)
12) upload consciousness on a remote server
13) escape through virtual world (escapism)
14) make rope out of clothes to hang by the window
15) unscrew door lock with keys
16) lock has retinal scan, I have clearance
17) same with fingerprint, or other biometrics
18) same with subcutaneous chip
19) same with phone
20) hack clearance with phone (after spending 10 years learning)
21) collapse room with rythmic pounding (mechanical resonance)
22) file the bars with the phone
23) squeeze through the cat flap
24) pick lock with my pen’s spring (same 10 years learning)
25) pull out a wooden slat from the floor, then use it as lever on the door
26) mold some soap into the shape of the key
27) buy the room, get keys delivered
28) rent the room, forget to pay the rent, get expelled
29) I’m already escaping the whole outside world when locked in the room, so victory
30) remember the code
31) melt the lock with the electric power of the phone
32) melt the lock with the acid in the phone battery
33) start fire with phone battery to burn down wall (probably a very bad idea)
34) pull the power cables from the wall, cut the power from the electric lock
35) learn martial arts to better smash walls
36) solve the escape room
37) wait for the escape game to finish
38) go online, promise 1 million to whoever gets me out, then write a book about the experience and make 2 millions
39) the room is a device to reverse entropy: use it, tuo teg neht
40) room is a terrace, technically I’m locked inside but I’m still outside
41) blow the lock with pressure
42) melt lock with acid pee
43) wait for whoever locked the room to show up then ambush
44) same but negociate
45) refuse to get out, reverse psychology
46) remotely control a drone to open the door
47) remotely buy a replica of the key and have it delivered
48) remember where I put the key
49) the room is locked if trying to open from the outside, but opens from the inside
50) create a LW thread about escaping a room, hope someone gets the hint
#45 is particularly good for a chuckle.
Welcome back! Nice job.
Don’t say #50 out loud!
