Gone but not forgotten
I think we\'re ready to clear the final room - time sure does fly when you\'re having fun, doesn\'t it? I\'ve assessed our fuel needs, and I think we\'re getting pretty close to a full tank. Come visit me at Skelly Manor and let\'s finish with a bang!

I am having trouble with the book clearance. I can play mouse games well, but I am not good at space bar and arrow games. I so want to get to the next part of the puzzle.

Sure, Jaxon, lock the screwdriver in the cabinet. Feed the key to the plant. What could possibly go wrong.
(Cringeworthy clichés of escape-the-room games aside, loved this step! You guys are doing an amazing job.)

I was literally stuck for 20 minutes before I realized that there was something else that I never even clicked on WOW SMOOTH TALI.
I'm just proud of myself for actually figuring it out on my own bahahaha.
This plot is fantastic btw.

Haha, when I was younger I was so addicted to escape games, now I could barely figure it out.
But really nice, the most challenging day so far. :)

I feel bad for Jaxon honestly. I completely understand why he has made such a strong attachment to Ian; Ian's the only one that can actually be there for Jaxon and probably the only one willing to deal with the antisocial, pumpkin recluse. Jaxon has probably lived most his life in this state (unless there was some kind of dramatic event that caused him to shut everyone out), so when he finally teams up with the scientist on a project, he realizes that he finally has a friend (maybe the first in a long time). So of course, having so much in common, and ridding Jaxon of loneliness, they become BFFs.
After I thought about this for a bit, I couldn't figure out who I wanted to hug more Jaxon (for his past, and whatever he went through to cause him to be like this) or Ian (for loosing his best friend and feeling absolutely responsible for it). It's touching really.

I got the book, but I'm still locked in the room. Is there another step or do I remained trapped for now?

A couple of things:
1) The step is NOT glitched. If you're having trouble, there are plenty of resources here, on the forums, and on some of our help sites that can assist you in figuring out what you're missing!
2) Unfortunately, Subeta has NEVER claimed to be mobile or tablet-friendly. We're sorry if that makes things difficult for some of you, but this is nothing new.
3) Please make sure you're reaching out to friends and fellow Subetans as opposed to just making a ticket and hoping the staff will solve it for you - you'll get through the steps a lot faster, and you'll get a much more direct response. :)
You can do it guys! For Jaxon!! :D :D

Took us a while because we didn't find the clicky space on the lower corner of the wall-hanging for ages, so I was sort of "but where is two? Where is five?", but eh.
Talk about Plot twist. Really? Huh. I always thought he was a vampire.
I, uh... guess this explains why his official art has his waistline looking all... whispy?
Although... Ian and Jaxon are never going to be able to escape the crazy shippers after this. Ian, stop. You're encouraging them.

This is such crap. Another quest I don't get to finish because I don't have a computer.
So just go on and finish without the mobile users. Very nice. Especially seeing as I have been such a long time user. And of course I'm sure there are many of us using the mobile site. It's not fair to is to have to be left out.

Oh my HECK, I FINALLY figured out who Ian reminds me of. I've been staring at his ridiculously poofy hair through every step of this plot, knowing that he looks like someone and just not being able to place it
but i finally figured it out
Zack Addy. LAB COAT, TERRIBLY INCOMPETENT WHILE BEING COMPLETELY COMPETENT, HAIR THAT NO ONE CAN TAKE SERIOUSLY.
Whew. Okay. Okay. Maybe I can stop squinting at him every single time his portrait is visible now that I've put my finger on it.

For people that are having trouble with the order of the clues, make sure you have all four number clues - one of those clues comes with something else which will let you find a clue detailing the order of them, although you'll have to look at it another way to get it right.
I hope that's not too spoilery? I really enjoyed this, I love adventure games and this section was perfectly in tune with it, especially the revelation about Jaxon (not specifically what we all expected either! But it makes sense), and I must admit I do like the emotional concern Ian has too, makes us care more about the plot in general. Loving it!
