(SPOILERS!) Lore Digging Puzzles

[The Grumpy Weasel]

Found a way to beat the game and much knowledge to reduce the impact of randomness before reaching the endgame. But much lore stuff seem locked.

Her Ladyness' diary. First I already confirmed how to find Her Ladyness' chamber by a document at the observatory. The diary has a special lock and key. Spotted a queen chess-piece in that room which reminds me of a chessboard puzzle. No clues on finding the diary key nor on how to interpret the chessboard puzzle. I have some guesses that these are connected to the boudoir safe.

The office safe. From a credible note at the conference room, the conference notes are in the office safe, but a nearby note saying the password to the office safe is absolutely false because it is red and printed.

The drafting room safe. Known it needs a magnifier to access its keyboard. But I don't seem to have an efficient strategy to draw the drafting room very often. Guess it may probably be related to the date of the current run. Day one is Nov 7 to be cross-referred and confirmed for multiple times. ]

Items resisting thawing in the freezer. Probably, if you manage to draw a furnace and a freezer on the same map, the heat of the furnace will thaw your account and loot and machines in the freezer. Theorized upon the machines in the freezer requires a power supply from the boiler room or electric eel aquarium. Any clues on how to efficiently draw a power supply, a freezer and a furnace in one run?

What is the maximum number of cutscenes I can watch at the Great Alzara from the room that fortune-teller machine is located?

The facility at the laboratory. Clearly it requires power from the boiler room. It has ten levers, a power level indicator. I guess there is something doing with the periodic table puzzle in the same room.

By the way, I have heard some outside room position, and the tomb. How are they unlocked? I reached the endgame without them so this may be purely knowledge-gated permanent upgrades.

Any ideas on these directions of gameplay and lore digging?

You can melt the ice in the freezer with a burning glass (magnifying glass + metal detector)

In the breaker room, turn on power to the garage. In the garage (west most column only), there's a garage door opener you can press. Go outside and follow the path to the left to open the gate.

Got that. Any ideas on drafting a workshop room and a freezer efficiently? Seems like both of them are pretty rare, without the aid of a green floorplan that increases your chances to draft up rarer floorplans . I have only drawn two workshops over a profile of 22 days. I will pray for the coat check and the commissary rooms to get my items.

No idea on the freezer, but the workshop can have its rarity changed with a wrench. Once I got a wrench, I immediately checked it and made a point of retrieving it as often as I could (returning it each day) so I could adjust the rarity on all of the mechanical rooms.

It was a real big hassle but making the workshop common has been extremely helpful.
