I'm almost to the end I suspect, but I don't get what the paper saying "Light is in the books" means.

Karby

Spoiler: pick up the pink book on the top right shelf, then enter the right combo of numbers that you got from the books on the lower shelves..or something like that. make sure you're in that lens view thingy.

Damn you, I'm going to be late for work now.

I'm #9475 to have escaped.

I had to get help on one little part.. and I'm an idiot for resorting to that so quickly, as it wasn't that difficult to pick out.

This is the part I got help on. Spoiler: You'll receive, in your inventory, a book called the "weighting book". The only thing I can think of is that it's a play on words (light/lite/weight). Anyways, you need that book to advance.

Karby was much more telling than I hehe.

The Walk Thru:

Spoiler: The object of this game is to escape the room. In order to do so, you have to find the 4 "elements" and place them in the square indentation in the floor.

After reading all the poorly translated text at the beginning, click the green square to turn on the lights. Scroll all the way left to the computer area.

Computer: First, you need the 2 keys to open the drawers. The keys can be found under the two rugs on the floor. Click the left corner of the pink rug to find one key, and simply click the red rug to reveal the other. Next, you need the two chords. One is in the brown box just "south" of the computer desk, and the other is in the cabinet on the wall. Third, you need the CD-ROM. It's sticking out from under the lip of the round table "south east" of the computer desk. You can right-click and zoom in to make it easier.

Now click the desk once to get a closeup of the desk. Use the two keys to open the two drawers to retrieve the note and the CD. Now click the computer again. Attach the two chords to the box on the left, then click the CD tray to open it and insert the CD-ROM (gold). This will reveal a puzzle, asking how many squares are shown. If you count the individual squares, plus the larger, overlapping ones, you will find there are 30. Clicking 30 reveals the first element.

Get back to the normal view of the room and get the note on the floor. In your inventory, click both notes to "read" them, then click them again to make them go away. Go to the bookcase and click it to get into the "circle view" mode. Grab the pink book on the upper right hand shelf, click one of the pink books to retrieve it. If you click on various other books in the case, you will find four different clues to the combination for the book's lock. Click on the pink book in your inventory and enter the combination: 336-800-1643-1804. Now click the green light and the book case will open to reveal the second element. Grab it.

Now scroll all the way right. According to on of your notes, "Art can rise", so click the top of the painting to reveal the third element. Grab it.

Last, click on the right arm of the far right chair to open a compartment and reveal the crank. Get that, then click on the projector on the table. In the closeup view, select your silver CD and put it in the slot, then push the red button. It will show you something behind the canvas. Take the crank and put it in the gold hole to the right. The screen will rise revealing the fourth element.

Now go back to the indentation in the floor and place the four elements in. Go down the ladder, out the door, and escape to freedom!
