It's a whole new day, and a whole new Weekday Escape, thanks to the tireless efforts of talented escape game developers who I have by no means been keeping locked up in my basement and sustained on a thin nutritious gruel as they produce such wonderful games for free. (Don't look at me like that. I said I haven't. What are you, some sort of cop?) This week! CHOKO-CHAI's trio of curious cats is about to make entire generations of nerds insane with jealousy thanks to one very special acceptance letter. Primera knows you've been eyeing their violins and that is totally not okay dude what the heck. And Amajeto takes a few influences from a popular developer to serve up an escape that calls upon the skills of a thousand grannies.
3 Cats and the School of Witchcraft - YER A KITTEN, HARRY. Three kittens, to be exact, and in this cuddly escape by CHOKO-CHAI, they've gotten a letter by owl telling them to attend the next semester of magic school. What follows is both excessively nerdy and adorable, as their first task is to figure out how to escape from their classroom when the door has vanished. Don't forget that you can use the cats to help by clicking on their icon in certain places!
Violin - The only violin I know how to play is the tiny sarcastic one between my fingertips, so I may never get out of this nefarious trap by Primera. You, though? There's still hope for you. If you can get around the fact that nearly every cabinet, drawer, and other surface in this room has some sort of coded lock on it, you may be able to puzzle yourself an escape, and then, I don't know, presumably go on the lam as some sort of mad violin thief. Do kids still go on the lam today? I'm hip!
Jigsaw Puzzle Escape 1 - There's something very TomaTea-sy about the design of this escape by Amajeto, but since when is that a bad thing? I'm inclined to think this time we're locked in my grandmother's living room, giving the abundance of random knickknacks, purple pillows, and prominent jigsaw puzzle, but I think most of us are probably going to be more fixated on the shock of finding a remote control in an escape game that already has the batteries in it.
We love escape games, and our readers love talking about them and sharing hints! How about you? Let us know what you think, ask for clues, or help out other players in the comments below.
Walkthrough Guide
(Please allow page to fully load for spoiler tags to be functional.)
3 Cats and the School of Witchcraft Walkthrough:
Don't panic! We can do it! Hip Hip Hurrah!
Items:
Blue Bookmark
Go to the right of the room and climb up the
stairs. The blue bookmark will be laying on
top
Red Bookmark
Open the orange book on the shelf and
flip to the last page. A red bookmark will be inside.
Purple Bookmark
Use the blue bookmark on the mirror at the side of
the room and a purple bookmark will magically appear.
Ring Handle
At the left side of the fireplace you
can zoom in and there will be two ring handles
waiting there for you to take.
Green Bookmark
It is inside the color-coded locked
box behind the far right cabinet.
Magic Powder
It's located inside the far left cabinet.
Once that's open you can grab it.
Key
Once you have traveled to nyangon
you will notice a suspicious looking poster.
Click on it and then click on your cats to
have them claw it off the wall. It will reveal
a key from behing the poster.
Bonus: Click your gray cat again
for an adorable "I did it!"
Chokochai Ball
Check the other side of the wall in
nyangon and the cats will say there is something
not likely about it. Call out your cats and click
on the wall to have one of them kick it. Awesome!
Take the ball that is revealed behind the wall.
Pliers
Lift up the poster that had the key
on it to reveal a pair of pliers underneath.
Sneaky.
Owl Food
Located inside the cabinet with the hat.
Can Opener
Located at the bottom of the Owl's perch.
Broom
Once you have used the Chokochai Ball
to get to the second floor, there will be a broom
stationed on the left side held in place by a big
staple. Use the pliers to pry them off and pick up
the broom.
2nd Key
See how to use your Broom below.
Jelly Beans
See how to use your wand below.
3rd Key
Open the box of Jelly Beans and it will be
inside. Use it to exit the room once the door is revealed.
Philosopher's Stone
See Using unlocking the Center Cabinet below.
Hat
Combine the dots on the exit door once it's revealed to open the glass case the hat is stuck in. It's pretty simple, but here's the solution:
5-side on a die
Locks:
Far Right Cabinet
You will need the ring handles to open
the cabinet as they are missing. Attach them, and
then open the cabinet to find a locked box.
Locked Box
You may have seen numbers inside the colored
books on the shelf. Just correlate those to the numbers
here to unlock the box. To make it clear, the code is:
3864
Far Left Cabinet
You may recall seeing the word "overlay" in tiny
letters written inside the orange book. That's a hint for
what you need to do to open this cabinet. Once you have all
the bookmarks (you should have four) overlay them to reveal
the passcode. Enter the code from the bookmark and insert it
into the slot with the colors to open the cabinet.
Wand Cabinet
To open this cabinet, you will need the key
from the ceiling in nyangon. It is un-retrievable until
that point.
Center Cabinet
See unlocking the Center Cabinet below.
Puzzles:
The Fire
Once you have the Magic Powder you
can use it on the fire in the fireplace to
turn it green. Click on it and it will ask
you where you want to go. Type "nyangon" all
lowercase. If you type it with a capital it
won't work.
Using the Chokochai Ball
Once you have it, go back inside the
school and click the buttons on the statue in the
order received from the owl it's placed on to unlock it.
Once it's unlocked, click the red poster image that matches
it's shape with the ball selected from the ground floor. It
will allow you to gain access to the second floor of
the room you are in.
Key that is too high up to reach
Once you have the broom, go back to nyangon
where your cats are looking up at the ceiling. There
is a faint sparkling thing at the very top. Give the
broom to your smallest cat and he will go up there to
retrieve the key. What a good kitty.
Using the wand
Go to the second floor of the room again,
except this time on the right where there is a painting.
Use your wand on it and it will slide over to reveal an
item behind it. Additionally, you can use your wand on
the glass ball above the fireplace to reveal the unlocking
code for the center cabinet.
