Book Shop Secret Maybe?

[Lantantan]

Spoilers I guess? So the bookshop directory image does not match the interior of the drafted room, suggesting the book case has been rotated. A new clue book has a sign pointing to that book case too but so far I'm stumped on how to get it to open, anyone wiser than me found out yet?

[Lantantan]

Mmm I see your point with Patio, but I like Veranda because we're using up all the other letters with Align Shop, So I'll try veranda first.

My fastest solve for the Puzzle is in 8 moves:
Black, Black, Orange, (top) Blue, (top) Blue, Green, Blue (bot), Violet.

It's hard to tell from the pictures, but what are the colors under those books?

I see some are stacked two high, while others are three.

Align Shop? TE? ET?

Edit: And thanks for your quick efforts! that would have taken me ages.

A little spoilers:
Could it maybe be “Allign Shop ET”, with ET being short for ETT, the word east” in Erejan? Maybe we have to draft the shop with its exit heading east?

The stacks are laid out as such :

GREEN---PURPLE---BLUE
ORANGE---PURPLE---GREY

GREY---PURPLE---none
GREY---PURPLE---BLACK
GREY---PURPLE---BLACK

ORANGE---PURPLE---BLUE
GREY---PURPLE---BLUE

Here's a few illustrative screenshots if these text stacks are missing you :

So, in a 3x3 grid, your three layers are :

None-None-None
Gray-Purple-None
None-None-None

Green-Purple-Blue
Grey-Purple-Black
Orange-Purple-Blue

Orange-Purple-Grey
Grey-Purple-Black
Grey-Purple-Blue

I've also drafted the Patio adjacent to the Bookstore here, too :

You can see that the brick wall does line up with what may be the 'hidden' space.

Did anything happen? I agree that's a suspicious piece of brick wall, but It's not the bookshelf I previously suspected.

The only way this would be possible would be also drawing Dovecote in the same draft I believe?

And that's getting into some REAL ♥♥♥♥♥♥ RNG mechanics if that's the case lol

There are four different ways to rotate rooms.

Nope, unfortunately.
I didn't manage to get a hammer or even a power hammer that run, so no luck in trying to break it down but I doubt it

Rotunda wouldn't be possible as Bookshop can only be drafted from the Library.

I did forget about the one item from the Showroom though. Didn't know there was a fourth way though, hmm... Maybe a shrine effect I haven't seen yet?

Yes, donate 1 or 2 coins at the shrine for the DANCER effect.

That would be why I've never seen it LOL I always donate a ton, thought there'd be no effect with just a couple coins!

Every amount of coins is something, with higher amounts making the buffs last for more days.

Has anyone tried drafting the Bookstore as their last room?

Lasting hope = "Last in hope?"
