Start with a hint

Only open the level of help you want. The answer and full steps remain folded away until you choose them.

01   A gentle nudge

The room contains two pieces of the same date. Read the Room Service Card and investigate the CRTV broadcast.

02   Show the specific clue

Tune the CRTV to channel 60. Combine its information with the Room Service Card before returning to the three wheels.

03   Reveal the answer & full solution

THE ANSWER

18 · January · 1996
TOP: 18; MIDDLE: January; BOTTOM: 1996
Use this reference alongside the steps below. Labels are a schematic, not the game interface.

Step-by-step solution

  1. Inspect the Room Service Card and the broadcast on CRTV channel 60.
  2. From the top wheel to the bottom, set 18, January, then 1996.
  3. Go through the opened doorway and take the Room 204 Key from the bathroom counter.
  4. Use the key on the hotel room's exit door.

Still stuck?

The date mechanism and the exit lock are separate obstacles. Solving the wheels does not replace picking up the Room 204 Key.
