Overview of Puzzles in the Executive Office
Before we dive in, here‘s a quick overview of the puzzles we need to solve:
-
Dial the BBS Number: Find the bulletin board system number outside and dial it
-
Decode the Passcode: Decipher the clues to get the 3-digit secret code
-
Complete Y-Copy: Name the distorted image files correctly
-
Run the Unlocker: Analyze disk sectors to get the unlock code
-
Decode the Cassette: Listen and guess the number from the tape message
-
Solve BASIC10: Write programs to output the expected text
-
Choose Tie Combinations: Pick the right ties for the quantum computer

Insert Quantum Chips: Place the collected chips into the quantum console
Phew, that‘s a lot to unpack! But stick with me, and we‘ll knock these out one-by-one.
Walkthrough Guide
Alright, let‘s get started with Escape Simulator Executive Office!
1. Dial the Mysterious BBS Number
As we begin, a computer prompts us to dial the BBS number. What is BBS you ask? It stands for Bulletin Board System, an old network technology used in the early days of the internet.
Clearly, the folks at Omega Corporation like to keep things retro!
To find the number, look out the office window. Scan the buildings closely and you‘ll see the digits 555256222 displayed on one facade.
Let‘s dial this on the in-room computer now. Excellent, it worked! The system rewards our clever observation with the first quantum chip. Just seven more to go!
2. Cracking the Secret 3-Digit Code
For our next task, we‘re given the cryptic clue: "From dawn to sunset hidden in plain sight." Hmm, a perplexing puzzle indeed!
Let‘s mull this over carefully. It likely refers to morning, day, and night. Scan the room for any mentions of dawn, sunset or night.
Aha, check out those posters on the buildings outside – they represent times of day!:
- Morning Delight = Dawn
- Noon Radio = Sunset
- Evening News = Night
And see those numbers on each building? Connecting the dots gives us:
- Dawn = 2
- Sunset = 6
- Night = 8
So the secret code must be 268. Let‘s try inputting that into the computer. Success! The system grants us quantum chip number 2.
3. Completing the Y-Copy Program
Moving along to the next challenge, a computer labeled PSS-BSS v1.07 is requesting some sort of Y-Copy program be run.
First, we‘ll need to collect some items:
- Eject the disk from the PSS-BSS v1.07 computer. Grab that blue floppy!
- Find a key behind the plant and open the top desk drawer. Snag the red floppy disk inside.
With both floppy disks in hand, insert them into the two drives on the Y-Copy computer.
When we launch the program, 4 distorted image files appear. We need to identify them correctly to proceed.
Checking the framed pictures around the room gives us the answers:
- Infogames
- Brainscape
- Similaris
- Bullfly
Inputting the correct names completes the Y-Copy challenge and grants us quantum chip #3!
4. Hacking the System with the Unlocker
After finishing Y-Copy, a disk analysis tool opens. Click "Analyze" to scan the disk sectors closely.
3 bad sectors appear, showing the numbers: 2, 8, 7. Make a note of this code.
We can now open the Unlocker program on the computer and input 2-8-7 as the unlock code. Success! This grants us quantum chip #4.
5. Decoding the Ominous Cassette Tape Message
Grab the cassette tape from the right desk drawer and the screwdriver set from the third drawer.
Insert the tape into the cassette player. Attach the square screwdriver bit and turn it when the blue square appears.
A computerized voice asks "What number am I thinking of?" Strange! Let‘s start guessing.
Trying various numbers, the voice says higher or lower to guide us. Eventually, through logic, we deduce the correct number the computer is thinking of.
This puzzle grants us quantum chip #5!
6. Tackling the BASIC10 Programming Challenges
Inside a concealed compartment, we find a BASIC10 cheat sheet with commands.
Using these, we must write 3 programs that output the "EXPECTED" text shown on the computer screen:
Program 1:
Print "Hello"
Print "World"
Program 2:
TxtColor(2)
Print "Hello"
TxtColor(5)
Print "World"
TxtColor(2)
Print "Hello"
Program 3:
For I = 1 to 3
Print "Hello"
Next Counter
For I = 1 to 5
Print "World"
Next Counter
For I = 1 to 5
Print "World"
Next Counter
Wow, we did it! Our BASIC skills triumphed and earned us quantum chip #6.
7. Selecting the Correct Tie Combinations
Around the office we find 3 ties:
- Black and green tie on the desk
- Blue and yellow tie on the chair
- Red and white tie in the second drawer
At the quantum computer, we insert the ties in this order:
- Blue and yellow
- Black and green
- Red and white
The machine accepts the combination and unlocks the tie cabinet!
8. Inserting the Quantum Chips
This is it…the final step! We take our hard-earned quantum chips and insert them one by one into the quantum console.
Success! The chips activate the machine and unlock the exit door. We did it!
