elleelle_summernightescape_title.pngTomaTea 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.

  2. Look under bed, use rod to reach pipe (1/5) and back out again.

  3. Zoom in on flowers (left of the closet), and take pipe (2/5)

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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:

  4. Back out of the bathroom.

Back into the Bedroom and Open the Bottom Left Nightstand Door

  1. 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.

  2. 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).

  3. Open the door and take a handheld game and another key .

  4. 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 . . .

    (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).

  4. 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 .

  5. While there, grab the spigot hidden on the right side of the flowers. Back up and head back inside.

Bedroom, Top Left Nightstand Door

  1. Using the code you created by putting together the clues from wall by the drainpipe and the pictures in the bathroom . . .

  2. 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).

  3. 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.

Hah! Out without a walkthrough for the first time ever! One small comment:

the pipe game at the end was made far too easy by telltale clues like the red lines on the far right pipes, and the squares only lining up when the pipes were in the right alignment!

Still rather enjoyable though. I do like TomaTea games; the logic always seems to follow.

And exactly how are you supposed to figure out the solution to the dice puzzle?

I have found nowhere in the game where it says that the combination is 1234 and it's not obvious at all. Since I did not have that information, I thought it had to do with the bathroom pictures, and not being able to see the connection I had to resort to a walkthrough.

That ruined the game for me. Not having to resort to a walkthrough, but not giving a proper hint for that puzzle.

Reply

Somehow I'm stuck on the first puzzle.

I can't find any sort of pattern on the starfish puzzle. Looking at each square separately, I see: top left- yellow, red, red; top right- red, green, yellow; bottom left- red, red, green; bottom right- green, yellow, red. Using the patterns there, I'd think that it would be (in the same order) yellow, red, green, green, but that doesn't work.

I know the walkthrough gives a solution, but that isn't helpful for those of us who like to see what leap of logic was made to reach that solution.

I guess we have no lack of walkthroughs for this one!

Thanks to everyone who posted one! :)

@Callidy:

The logic to solving that puzzle is in noticing that each starfish can only be found once in a given location. Thus when you look at for instance the green starfish, you will see it in 3 of the 4 smaller squares, so for the drawer puzzle, it needs to be placed in the 4th small square that has not yet had a green starfish. The same goes for the other starfish.

Reply

Callidy

I think you may be overthinking, as was I...

I assumed there was some sort of series, but couldn't find it. Rather, I think you just need to put the green and yellow stars in the spots they have not occupied in the three wall hangings.

That was a nice little distraction. It's fun watching TomaTea's games steadily improve with time. One complaint, though:

It took me a really long time to realize I could grab that rod in the cabinet, and likewise the towel in the bathroom cabinet. The fact that whenever I clicked anywhere (except on the rod and towel) inside the cabinets, the cabinets closed, led me to believe that there was nothing else to be had in there.

It would be much better if the cabinets only closed when you clicked the doors, rather than the interior of the cabinets.

Reply

@themepark:

1234 is not "the combination", but the colors were. You're supposed to realize that you can enter colors in the box, and then look for something that could give you a sequence. The die provides that. If it were asking for numbers I could understand your confusion, but it was asking for colors, so I think the rest of us followed the logic that the designer meant for the puzzle.

Reply

I used a little different approach on the starfish.

The paper in the wardrobe suggests a pattern progressing from the left to the right. So to get the middle pattern from the left one, you slide the bottom-right starfish up to top-right, the top-right to bottom-left, the bottom-left to top-left, and the top-left to bottom-right. Repeating that shift operation on the middle pattern yields the right one. Thus it stood to reason that the solution was to shift the right pattern the same way to get the code.

Reply

On logic

@DAM It is not logical to assume ordinals from integers, especially when there are prominent color/number combinations all over the room. Even if you deduce that that's the correct clue, it's fundamentally misleading, and there were additional numbers involved as well. The only help you get is out of the keypad range, and that's still this side of brute force.

@Stephen I agree. This was a classic IQ test sort of puzzle. Kind of surprising that it's near the beginning of the game. Another one of this sort is one of the drawer puzzles in Loom Blend. https://jayisgames.com/archives/2009/04/loom_blend.php

the starfish puzzle is not too difficult if you:

make 2 moves. First switch the top two starfish Then flip the whole puzzle so the top two go to the bottom. This pattern goes to throughout

Uncle Swayshawn September 6, 2011 3:46 PM

ROFL this game had it all, with the puzzles on it and everything. I'm going to you like i saw it

that puzzle with the part on it where you had to do the grab reach job up to get that tube; the tube that was itself caught up under that bed, it was hard to find that pole rod up in that closet! I clicked myself around that room all the day trying to find a pole rod to scrape out that tube with and it was in that closet the whole time!!! This game had it all it was too FUNNY!!!

Reply

I solved the starfish puzzle yet another way.

The top row forms a pattern, and the hint in the wardrobe suggest completing the pattern for the middle box in the row below. So that's what I did, and it worked! It's interesting that this puzzle can be solved in so many different ways.
