Post subject:  The Mystery of Time and Space-a game
The Mystery of Time and Space, also known by the acronym MOTAS, was something I discovered a long while ago, another gift from the GCB. You start off in a locked room, and must solve puzzles to escape it. What happens when you do? You have to escape the next room. It sounds monotonous, but to the contrary. It's quite fun, especially when you've beaten it and are guiding others with a metaphor about squirrels and staplers. Yeah.

Here it is.

EDIT: Oh yes, and better than the Crimson Room.

I guess I really can't knock it since I haven't tried it, but it certainly seems addicting. You guys are going crazy over it in the chat. Reminds me quite a bit of the Crimson room. Seems like the sort of thing I would be horrible at.

Seriously, it's quite an addicting game. Me, TEF, and Jitka were having a blast playing it in chat while Sui was giving us hints (in the case of TEF practically telling him how to beat the entire freaking thing). It's a great challenge for the logic side of the brain (which is kind of weak on my end, though I did better at it than I thought I would). I must say, though, the makers were a wee bit too obsessed with putting 18 million keys in each level. ;)

Oh, and this has also spawned 'you can't just go after it like you're trying to staple a squirrel', one of the all-time great HRWiki chat quotes!

This only sounds bad to those not in my shoes. Those who were there can attest to my having to use guidance to stave him off. :eek:

I finally beat it, Sui. I hope they make more levels soon, because it was fun.

Woot.

I didn't know there were other people who played the game other than me...cool...

Yeah, it's a fun, addicting game. They should make a DS version of it. That would be awesome!

ugh, I was at the part where there are these black buttons, and when you press on on, some of them turn green. I could't figure it out, so I gave up. (I spent all morning on the game! What a wast of time!)

^Sane here. That's also where I stopped.

I got to level 12 but I got too confused and gave up. Stupid button wall thing! :sm:

Post subject:  I beat it twice seven times!
I beat it too, before Jitka and EG, even though they were way ahead of me when I started. And yes, Sui did help me through most of it, though I beat Levels 10 through 13 by my own frickin' self.

Beat that. Losers.

Just started playing it now. Nice poster!

Just look at those fantastic two colors!

What?? Locked!!

Fuh. I'm stuck with the compy and the diskette box. Can't get it open. Stumblebump.

EDIT: Okay, finally beat that. Now I'm stuck where the rat looks like a head.

EDIT: Okay, finally beat that. Now I can't beat the room with the keypad that has smiley faces on it. You know, the one with the door behind a cabinet.

Ian... a spoiler warning, mayhaps? I mean, people will realize what it is after reading a couple of lines, but a big, bold warning won't hurt those who quickly scroll down to check the newest post.

I'm planning on getting permission to play that game soom and I almost read that walkthrough. Maybe you could quote it and change the color to white so you have to highlight it to read it?

EDIT: I meant for the person who originally wrote it to put it in a quote box.

Well, someone else quoting it is no good, as Ian's post will still be there. I'll PM him about it. Good luck on the permission, and sorry about that leash. =(

That help?
