Poster: Room 238 by Lenz
Notice the description “Don'y stare too long, you might get sucked in!”
View the item in the shop, and leave it open.
After some time, you will notice the image getting larger. Leave the poster open for 30 minutes,
and you will be redirected to Room 238b.
Room 238b
Room 238b may take several runs, the first run being used to collect information you need to solve some of the puzzles.
After that, the room needs to be completed in close to as little moves as possible, as batteries will die, bugs will kill you,
Jack will break in, etc...
Go directly to the trash can and take the spray.
Go to the table and use the spray on the plate.
Take the knife.
Go directly to the doll and use the knife, you will receive the batteries.
*That part must be done with as few moves as possible, otherwise the batteries will die.
Take the matches from the left side night stand.
Take the soap from the right side night stand, as well as the ice bucket.
Go to the vent on the floor in the corner of the room, place the ice bucket.
Go to the closet, open the left side, take the sweater and hanger.
Go back to the ice bucket, use the soap on the bucket, which is now water.
Take the key from the bucket.
Go to the TV stand, open the left side with the key.
Enter the code: 29-69-09
This code is from the 3 pictures on the wall, 29 is from the Statue of Liberty (atomic number of copper), 69 is from
the image of the constellation of Cancer, as the symbol for Cancer resembles 69. 9 is from the name of the Jackson
Pollock painting. The order can be determined by the note on the table next to the laptop.
The safe will give you the password to the laptop.
This is a random password each game, so all of these steps need to be done on each run.
Go to the remote on the left side night stand.
Use the batteries on the remote, press the power button.
The TV is now on, press the volume up button 10 times, Jack will get very angry.
Turn the TV off and go to the table.
Use the matches on the candle.
Go to the right night stand, and then use the hanger on the outlet on the wall.
The power will go out and the drill will stop.
You need the hanger before Jack gets mad, otherwise you cannot cut the power in time, before Jack gets in.
Go to the laptop and click the screen to log in. Enter the password from the safe.
Click the Chrome shortcut, Room 238b will be launched.
Begin the game, navigate to the laptop and see yourself, take the poisonous bug off your own back.
Navigate back, and the laptop will then die.
The laptop may die before you get to the login, all of the above steps should be done in as few moves as possible.
The bug on your back may also kill you before this point, if too many moves are made.
Jack will now be trying to jimmy the lock with a credit card.
Go to the door, and take the credit card sticking through the door crack.
Go to the TV stand and open the right side with the credit card.
Notice the note above the safe: Missing ... high score
Enter the code: 86-06-30
This code comes from the various things around the room, which are references to 6 Seinfeld episodes at the end of season 9.
The Wizard - from under the bed near the right side night stand.
The Burning - from the picture in the right side night stand.
The Bookstore - from the picture in the closet.
The Maid - from the picture on the table.
The Puerto Rican Day - from the calender on the wall.
The Chronicle - from the book under the left side night stand.
Several quotes throughout the room are from Seinfeld, and the end of the TV program will play a Seinfeld commercial.
The missing episode in this sequential chuck of episodes is 'The Frogger'.
George's high score in this episode (may need wikipedia) is 860630, which gives us our safe combination.
Get the key from the safe.
Go to the corner, behind the wardrobe, and drop the sweater.
Otherwise the Sweater Monster will eat you when you leave the final exit door.
Go to the exit door, use the key on the lock, exit the room.
At the end of the video, you will order 7 beers, which is a requirement for your shopping cart.

Clicking the link will navigate to the proper page, but the page immediately redirects you to a different page.
One possible solve is to view source, and then alter the view source link to the proper link.

Viewing the proper nextlеvel.htm source will reveal the next url: therеalnextlevel.htm
Note that there is also a deadend page at therealnextlevel.htm, you will need to copy paste this text as well.
Level 3:
For this level, you will need to alter the directory '666'
Convert 666 to binary: 1010011010
Flip them: 0101100101
Convert back to decimal: 357
Alter the 666 in the url to 357

Download the image, may need to inspect elements on the page to find the image file
Open the image as an archive file and extract the files
Inside is stuff.rar and tools.rar
Extract tools.rar
Cracking stuff.rar:
place tools.rar inside the tools/rarcracker folder
open a command prompt in the tools/rarcracker folder
run the command: crark.exe -ppassword.def stuff.rar
after several minutes, it should find the password: impenetrablenesses
Open stuff.rar with password 'impenetrablenesses'
Files: 7.jpg, III.png, jpg.jpg, rawr.rar, solution.png
Your ultimate goal here is to use the gmask tool on solution.png
The rest of the files will reveal what steps need to be used in the gmask tool
using something like https://incoherency.co.uk/image-steganography/#unhide, view the hidden image in III.png
You will see the word 'gucci'
Open the Outguess tool
Give the key: gucci
Give the file: jpg.jpg
Extract the text: 9b4c539948ae24d8c7f3efad2bb6c1665a8d9bae8eec600f286247e1d98acafc
Any site like crackstation.net will be able to decode the hash: spaghetti
7.jpg shows us 'FL' is the 7th step
III.png shows us 'Horizontal Glass Blocks' is the 3rd step
Open III.png as an archive, password: spaghetti
Get files: 6.txt, thor11.wav
6.txt = ....---.-...--..----.-.-.-....-..-.....--.
A tool like https://www.jbowman.com/remorse/ will help you eventually find that this can be decoded to: HORIZONTAL FLIP
So our 6th step is a Horizontal Flip
Launch the fldigi tool (click ignore if you get an error)
Switch op mode to Thor 11
Go to File>audio>playback
Select thor11.wav
Continuous loop can be set to no
The image will be read, it is the image known as 'Lenna'
Text in the image will verify this. Close fldigi
View the exif data of 7.jpg, you will find: https://donotbelieveherlies.com/stuff/rockme.txt
Get this file and add it to the tools/rarcracker folder
You will then need to update the password.def file and have it now use the rockme.txt file (on line 8)
Put a copy of rawr.rar into the tools/rarcracker folder and launch a command prompt
Run the command: crark.exe -ppassword.def rawr.rar
It will find the password: bumshaker
Open the rawr.rar archive, using password: bumshaker
Get file: 1.png
1.png tells us that M- is step 1
Open 1.png as an archive file, password: lenna
Open the AnotherBagYay folder
Our unused link from the tools folder is the koa to jpg converter
Rename 5 to 5.koa, and convert it to jpg via the given website
5.jpg will show us M+ is the 5th step
Put a copy of 4.gif into the tools/gifshuffle folder
Run the command: gifshuf -C -p "dealwithit" 4.gif
You will receive the text: 4.Q0
So Q0 is our 4th step
The last line of the rockme.txt file is: 2.FL
FL is our 2nd step, and we now have all 7 steps
Open gmask and load the solution.png file
Zoom out and use the mouse to select the whole image
Perform the steps: M- FL HorizontalGlassBlocks Q0 M+ HorizontalFlip FL
You will see a QR code, scan the code and get: twelve pink fanny packs
