Find the Escape-Men Part 140: Snow Shovel
Platform: Javascript/HTML5
Find the Escape-Men Part 140: Snow Shovel by no1game is yet another short and sweet escape game with a snowy theme as you try to find the ten little green men and clear your driveway in the process. In that sense, at least, it's actually less an escape game, and more of a simple puzzle, unless you count escaping from the cold! As usual for a no1game title, there's no changing cursor, so you'll need to hunt everywhere for interactive areas, including some that might not appear right away. This is one of those games that might not even fill up a coffee break, but uses some clever tricks for its few puzzles that will have you smacking your forehead once you figure at least one of them out, as well as a cute method of giving you a few hints. So finish it up, snuggle up somewhere warm if you aren't already, and then, well, what else? Play even more no1games titles, of course!

This one's sneaky - the code is right there in plain sight
How many letters is the ALL CAPS computer code?
What word is near it that is the same length and ALL CAPS?

After putting in the password, there will be a site of this game (meta!) where you can get hints. The first mentions getting something to wrap the medicine jar in - by looking "everywhere"
In this case, look UP

Go back inside to the well-heated room, and check the heater to see that's it's too hot to handle for Escape Man 10/10
Getting Out
The 10 Escape men combine into an odd configuration of a green man waving with a tiny man on him. You might not remember, but we've seen this before
It was somewhere that helped us a lot through the game
On the web page on the laptop - in the top left
Place the Escape Man for a very Meta ending
