TomaTea understands what makes an escape-the-room enticing: it's not what you're escaping from but where you're escaping to because, when you begin a TomaTea escape, you are transported to a place you'd relish being trapped. In the case of Summer Night Escape, this is especially true: a warm, star-filled eventide when time pauses and all seems right with the world. Isn't that what escape games are for? An opportunity to forget everything else and to let go in surreal surroundings, where solving a few puzzles is all it takes to hear, "Congratulations! You've found success!"
Summer Night has smooth, intuitive navigation (click the sides of the screen to change direction) and exploration (a changing cursor indicates hot spots; click them for a closer look) with cohesive puzzles that rely in equal parts on your power of observation, your ability to make logical connections, and your ingenuity. The balmy August evening atmosphere is alluring and, as you search for clues in this three-room scene, cricket songs serenade you. Because Summer Night Escape is rather short in length, it is also not so long or involved that it becomes more work than play; experienced gamers are going to knock this out of the park in one swing, yet Summer Night Escape gives its players a bit of a challenge, a lot of fun, and a moment to gaze at a starry sky.

Summer Night Escape Walkthrough
Bedroom - gathering clues & solution for top right nightstand door
Open closet door, take note of the diagram taped to the back wall, and then click on the clothes rod to take it, back up.
Look under bed, use rod to reach pipe (1/5) and back out again.
Zoom in on flowers (left of the closet), and take pipe (2/5)
Back away then turn left, zoom in on the table of fruit and shell; notice there is something deep inside the shell, but you cannot reach it that far down. Zoom out.
Turn left twice, and take a closer look at the starfish display on the wall above the bed. Using the clue from inside the closet, take notice of how the color patterns change from frame to frame:
Left Frame: top left=yellow; top right=red; bottom left=red; bottom right=green.
Middle Frame: top left=red; top right=green; bottom left=red; bottom right=yellow.
Right Frame: top left=red; top right=yellow; bottom left=green; bottom right=red.
Go back and left to focus in on the nightstand, top right door. Following the pattern provided from the three starfish displays, the next color pattern should be:
top left=green (two clicks); bottom left=yellow (no clicks); top right=red (one click); bottom right=red (one click)
After you enter the correct color pattern, click the button and the door will open. Take pipe (3/5) and key . Back out and turn right, toward the bathroom door.
Bathroom - Gathering Clues
Use the key to open the bathroom door, and zoom in on the under-sink cupboard. Another code, this time a four digit number, that you don't have yet . . . so will come back later. Click on the cup sitting on the counter to take it. Back out again.
Go to the shower, turn on the water, and fill the cup up.
Before leaving, take a closer look at the two oblong pictures hanging above the sink . . .
Left picture (from top to bottom): red flower; yellow triangle; blue crossed-circle.
Right picture (from top to bottom): blue triangle; red crossed-circle; yellow flower.
. . . The colors and shapes may be a clue for a later puzzle.
Back out of the bathroom.
Back into the Bedroom and Open the Bottom Left Nightstand Door
Return to the little table with fruit and pour the water from cup into the shell; a colored die will rise to the surface so take it. Examine it closely, noting the colors corresponding to each side:
1=yellow; 2=green; 3=red; 4=blue; 5=orange; 6=purple.
Using the clue from the die, now you can solve the color code for the bottom left door of the nightstand:
first box on left=yellow (no click); second box from left=green (two clicks); third box from left=red (one click); last box=blue (three clicks).
Open the door and take a handheld game and another key .
Play the handheld game by using the arrows to turn slant the surface and make the ball roll in that direction. The goal is the get the ball into the green circle without it rolling off the screen. When you finish the game successfully . . .
Right-Down-Left-Up-Right-Down-Left-Up--Right-Down.
. . . you'll be given a 4-digit code:
3231 (note: you must play the game correctly before you can use the code)
Return to the Bathroom, Open the Sink Cupboard
Enter the code from the handheld game to open the under the sink cupboard.
Get a towel and another pipe (4/5)
Wet the towel in the shower, then head back out.
The Patio - Gathering Clues
Use the square key to unlock and open the sliding glass door.
Go closer to the swing and grab the baseball .
Back up then click on the drainpipe on the left wall. Use the wet towel on the black smudge to reveal a clue (another color pattern) . . .
(from left to right)
red + yellow = orange
yellow + blue = green
blue + red = purple
. . . Combine this information and hint from the bathroom pictures to create new shapes and colors:
orange flower (overlap the two flowers); green star (overlap the two triangles); purple +-circle (overlap the two crossed circles).
Before backing away from the drainpipe, put the baseball in the hole. Back up then focus on the ground under the pipe to get the baseball back and another colored die with pictures .
While there, grab the spigot hidden on the right side of the flowers. Back up and head back inside.
Bedroom, Top Left Nightstand Door
Using the code you created by putting together the clues from wall by the drainpipe and the pictures in the bathroom . . .
The shapes you get from overlapping the pictures in the bathroom, plus use the color combinations from the drainpipe clue.
(from left to right)
orange flower (two clicks)
green star, with points at odd angles (five clicks)
purple + in circle (three clicks)
. . . Open the top left nightstand door, get the jewelry box .
Inside the box is a place for three things . . .
the numbered die, the handheld game, and the baseball.
. . . when you put them in, it'll reveal another clue.
Bottom Right Door of Nightstand
Using the hints from the box and the colored picture die, come up with the four letters you'll need, in order of the colors on the four digit code:
D-O-O-R
Take the key and the last pipe (5/5) and go back outside.
Patio - Pipe Puzzle and Exiting
Back outside, go up to the locked metal box on the right wall. Use the key to unlock it and open it.
Take your pipe pieces from your inventory and place them inside; it will turn into a puzzle. You need to rotate the pipes until they are correctly connected (the shading on the pipes helps to orientate them properly).
When the pipes are all connected, look to the right side of the pipe box. Replace the spigot on the valve and turn it on.
Back up and focus in on the dolphin fountain. There you'll find a gold star-shaped key .
Back out and then go to the wooden patio door. Use the key and you're out!
