I received this link this morning and it is driving myself and everyone here at work crazy. There are 13 clues hidden in this room, and it takes all 13 of them to unlock the door and get out. So far I lead with 12 clues found. Can you find all of them?

Done this a couple times, the next room is harder

Ihatevacations']Done this a couple times, the next room is harder

There is another room after this? Now I know I have to figure it out. Can you give me a clue as to what is up with the little dancing man?

Rah! Damn you! Now I'm hooked! me likey...but I suck at this sort of thing!

Dancing man? damn, I've only got some keys and a 'box of mystery'....I love the Engrish! I'm stuck! Where do I find another clue?

Okay nine. Got the stupid useless cassette. "There is no strange thing" my ass!

Dancing man? damn, I've only got some keys and a 'box of mystery'....I love the Engrish! I'm stuck! Where do I find another clue?

Does the url on the message have anything worthwhile and what the heck does the thingy the dancing man is pointing to do?

I used them...got the cable for the 'stale CD player'...and another key. That's it. I SUCK AT THIS!!!

i'm still stuck on nine i can't even think of anywhere else to look. :headbang:

What now? I got that one damn key that doesn't seem to open anything, and the stupid cassette tape, and now I'm fricked.

Blast...i've looked everywhere, and am still missing 2 items...can someone direct me as to where i might find another battery?

i'm still stuck on nine i can't even think of anywhere else to look. :headbang:
Me too. We're at the same point. I'm not finding anything else.

Oh wait. I'm at 10. I found a battery.

Hmm. Apparently I'm not welcome in this room.

Me too. We're at the same point. I'm not finding anything else.

Oh wait. I'm at 10. I found a battery.
do you have the 'thin ring with sculpture'?

EDIT: battery?

Me too. We're at the same point. I'm not finding anything else.

Oh wait. I'm at 10. I found a battery.

Where'd you find the battery?

Blast...i've looked everywhere, and am still missing 2 items...can someone direct me as to where i might find another battery?

You only need one.

do you have the 'thin ring with sculpture'?

EDIT: battery?

Yup, and it fits in the mystery box. The battery is at the foot of the bed.

Who is this dancing guy everyone keeps talking about!?

Who is this dancing guy everyone keeps talking about!?
No idea. I don't know what to do next.

Ah, here we go.

That URL doesn't go anywhere, does it?

By another, i meant the one you need....and (spoiler) Which end's the front, and how d'ya get there? Thanks

No idea. I don't know what to do next.
How'd you get whatever it was to fit into you know what?

No idea. I don't know what to do next. Cheat?

Here is a list of 12 of the items:

Red "mistery" box
battery
CD case
Note
3 keys
stick
power cord
Cassette
2 rings

How'd you get whatever it was to fit into you know what?
I didn't. That's the problem. I don't know what to do with the battery.

But the ring? (spoiler) it fits into one of the circles on the mystery box, just click on the ring then on the box. After that, I have no idea.

I'm stuck at ten...

Cheat?

Here is a list of 12 of the items:

Now if I could just find the: stick, and the other ring.

I can't look under the bed:(

well, i gotta go home now. but i'll see y'all tomorrow.

Where's that second damn ring? :(

Where's that second damn ring? :(
I'm sure there's something under the bed, but I can't position myself to get a look!

Now if I could just find the: stick, and the other ring.

For the other ring play with the curtain.

I somehow managed to take a look at the end of the bed, opposite from the pillow, but I couldn't find anything and now i don't know how to get back there...

I'm sure there's something under the bed, but I can't position myself to get a look!

Not that I'm aware of.

Found that second ring. Now I'm confused and weirded out.

How do you get to the $)@$&$@) Battery?

Not that I'm aware of.

Found that second ring. Now I'm confused and weirded out.
The room is kind of creepy, isn't it? Got that ring...god Zooke, I really am bad at these things! Thanks though! And Laerod...that's where the battery was...just click around that area till you get back.

OK. I admit I am stuck.

I have 11 items. I can't figure out what to do now.

Potential spoilers/my status:

I have the box, battery, CD case, memo, two round-head keys (silver & gold), cassette, metal stick, power cord, ordinary key (square head), and thin ring with sculpture.

I've hooked up the CD player with the cord.

I've put the stick and the ring on the box. I've flipped the ring.

WTF do I do now?

Is the memo's URL important?

Where the hell is the stick? :confused:

*snip*

Where did you find the stick?

I went to the URL...pretty cool, but I think it's just a link to the creator of the game.

OK. I admit I am stuck.

I tried the URL. I got a 404 error.

Play with the curtain.

I'm utterly confused after finding the dancing man.

No, the URL works. http://www.datacraft.co.jp/takagism/rr/history.html

Where is the damn stick?

OK. I admit I am stuck.

WTF do I do now?

Is the memo's URL important?

I don't know if the url is important or just an ad for the guy's site. Have you played with the curtain and found the second ring? If you do it will make the box work.....

I tried the URL. I got a 404 error.

Play with the curtain.

I'm utterly confused after finding the dancing man.

Same here...any idea to what/where he points at the end?

No, the URL works. http://www.datacraft.co.jp/takagism/rr/history.html

Where is the damn stick?

Yeah, I'm getting a 404 error when I go to that page.

How do you plug the cord into the CD player?

Yeah, I'm getting a 404 error when I go to that page.
I don't, but then again, I don't know wat 404 error is in Japanese... :p

For the other ring play with the curtain.

Thanks.

Now if I can just figure out what the dancing man is pointing at/what it means. I've tried clicking that spot or putting the key there.

Same here...any idea to what/where he points at the end?

Not the slightest idea. I click there when he's done, but I get nothing.

I'm utterly confused after finding the dancing man.

SPOILER

Watch and he'll point to the wall and a cross will appear, wait till the film ends then click that point several times.
Then a square will appear on the wall, click on that to find a safe.

If you really want, there's a walkthrough for it. Just type "Crimson Room" + walkthrough into any search engine, and you should find it.

Yeah, I'm getting a 404 error when I go to that page.
Weird...no bowing karate-type guy? Hmmm.

I can't find the stick? This is drving me mad.

No!! Don't tell me! I'm a cheater at heart.

Thanks! Duh on me for not thinking of it!

Me too. Because I suck.

Yes, the URL is very important.

Someone said about a second room.

Where do you find that (yes, I am a masocist) :)

Spoiler:

The metal stick is between the bed and the wall...

Now, once you get both ring and the stick, the mystery box play an animation of a dancing man on the wall. At some point, he will point at a little start next to him. If you wait the end on the film and click on it, it will open a chest on the wall

So the question is: what is the freaking combination for the chest?

how do you get the second ring?

*sigh*

I am thinking I need that website to work now....

1994, you can find it on the URL on that scrap of paper

If you click on the pillow and lift it up, then you can click on the top edge of the mattress. This will give you a view between the mattress and the headboard...where the stick is.....

I have a feeling we are going to be raising the dead here...

Yay! I beat the Crimson Room. With help of course. :p

I have a feeling we are going to be raising the dead here...

Yeah, it will form a box for holding a person's soul. I get that. I don't understand how the symbols correspond to the box, though.

I'm confused, i got out of the crimson room but it just says congratulations and stuff, how do i get into the next room?

I found the lighter but there are still three things.
