I found room 46 but I have a lot of puzzles unsolved

[johnvorsten]

Has anyone else found room 46 but many puzzles are still unsolved?

For example the painting puzzle is still unsolved for me. I think I could solve it, but I'll need more days.

There are lots of other things that I'm not sure if they are part of a puzzle, or just flavor for the game. For example the archives stories, dates, newspaper clippings, Alarza fortunes, safes, red envelope, mail room letters, strong box keys, the queens diary.... I'm not sure which threads to continue pulling on. Do all of these have a resolution, or are they just part of the game's ambiance?

trust me you have a whole lot more game ahead of you. i would say room 46 is like 20% or 30% of the games story and puzzles

To answer your question, I have a feeling *everything* seems to be relevant to some degree.

I also have reached Room 46, twice in fact, and I recommend reaching it a second time so you can truly visit it.

My thoughts are : this is a Roguelite. As such, "beating the game" takes more than "beating a run".

Compare with Binding of Isaac : beating Mom doesn't mean you've beaten the game, and you could say beating Mom is actually where the "real" game starts.

I believe Room 46 is this game's Mom. Reaching it is only a step in a much longer journey.

These things you have noticed, and so much more that is so far still undiscovered, are all relevant to this longer journey that's still ahead.

That is, of course, if you're curious about what is truly happening.

Congratulations on finishing the tutorial! Now the real game begins. It took me about 20 hours to get into room 46, I'm currently on my 100th hour. And there is no end in sight, even when I started limited peaking at guides around hour 50.

So really, pull on whatever thread you can!

Room 46 is just the highlighted big puzzle but in terms of the game's puzzles it's barely scratching the surface. Reaching room 46 is required for at least 3 more puzzles which are huge undertakings of their own. Some of what you listed is flavor/lore while the others have puzzles they tie into.

I'm the same. Reached room 46 on Day 30 with only 1 red envelope and only 2 of the permanent bonuses. Many rooms still undiscovered, and several workshop combos I don't know. Lots left to solve.

I'm now in the 40s and still working on things. I've had multiple new puzzles show up I've never seen before, and a couple I'm still not sure where to even begin.
