Rooms & Exits level guide
Rooms & Exits Level 27 Walkthrough
Rainbow paint-tray shelves line the walls of this vibrant mall art supply store, where a blunt pencil must be sharpened before it can reveal a hidden clue on blank paper. An Art Book open to a color-swatch page holds the key to a dark grid panel, and wooden easels in the back studio guard the final escape route.
Board Notes
- Layout
- A bright store with walls of horizontally stacked rainbow paint trays (pink through purple). White display tables sit in the center. A red cylindrical brush holder and loose paper are on the counter. In the back, wooden artist easels hold blank canvases. A color wheel poster, a blue Art Book open to a color-swatch page, a dark grid panel with square slots, and a green hinged shutter panel are mounted on the walls.
- Goal
- Sharpen the pencil, reveal a hidden drawing, decode the color sequence from the Art Book, fill the dark grid panel, and escape.
Quick Tips for Rooms & Exits Level 27 (spoiler-free)
- Find the pencil sharpener first — it's hidden away from the pencils, possibly inside a drawer or behind a shelf.
- The Art Book's swatch page gives the exact color order for the dark grid panel; read it row by row.
- If the board feels stuck, look for the color with the cleanest path and use that to regain space.
How to Solve Rooms & Exits Level 27 — Full Solution
- Search the store: collect the pencil and paper from the red brush holder, check behind rainbow shelves for hidden items, and locate the pencil sharpener in a less obvious spot (drawer, under a table).
- Sharpen the pencil, then use it on the blank paper or canvas. The pencil rubbing or drawing reveals a hidden pattern or clue.
- Open the blue Art Book and study the color-swatch page. Match the swatch order to the dark grid panel's slots — press or place each color in the correct position.
- Open the green shutter panel with the unlocked mechanism, retrieve the final key, and exit the art store.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Trying to use the pencil before sharpening it — the game won't register the interaction until the pencil is sharpened.
- Ignoring the Art Book as a prop when its swatch page is the literal key to the grid panel's color sequence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the pencil sharpener?
It is not next to the pencils. Search drawers, under tables, or behind the rainbow shelves — it is placed away from the obvious art supplies.
How do I solve the dark grid panel?
Open the Art Book to its color-swatch page. The swatches are arranged in the exact order you need to press or place colors on the grid panel's square slots.
