Rooms & Exits Level 52 Walkthrough
Chapter 3's Attic is a triangular, skylit loft packed with turquoise drawers, a typewriter desk, birdcage, locked green-lidded case, and a red-edged hexagonal clock—use the soapy cloth and the nested-hexagon pattern before setting the clock and advancing the escape chain.

How to Solve Rooms & Exits Level 52 — Full Solution
- Collect the soapy cloth from the lower-right crate of cleaning bottles, then open the turquoise drawers and inspect the writing desk, typewriter area, and lower shelf for the first clues and tools.
- Sweep the central floor cluster—the birdcage, doghouse, book stacks, wooden blocks, and hanging chair—before focusing on the right-side shelves and the locked green-lidded case.
- Record the glowing nested-hexagon panel exactly, including its three nested outlines and black diagonal segments; use it as the reference for the corresponding visual puzzle rather than tracing only the outside hexagon.
- Set the red-edged Roman-numeral clock from the time clue you uncover. Its hands are an active puzzle control, so confirm both hands rather than nudging one at random.
- Use the newly released clue or item on the locked case and continue the inventory chain toward the bright rear doorway.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Ignoring the lower-right cleaning crate after taking the cloth; the cloth's specific 'soapy' label signals a required clean/reveal interaction.
- Copying only the outline of the glowing hexagon clue and omitting its internal dark diagonals, which are what differentiate the intended pattern.
Quick Tips for Rooms & Exits Level 52 (spoiler-free)
- Keep the glowing nested-hexagon image in view; the dark diagonal bars are part of the pattern, not scratches in the wood.
- The first rag is a soapy cloth. Look for a dirty or obscured detail that needs cleaning before abandoning it.
- Think in chain clears. The best move is the one that sets up the next two moves, not just the quickest current match.
Board notes 2 details
- Layout
- A timber-rafter attic under a steep triangular roof with two left-side skylights and a bright rear doorway. A turquoise chest of drawers and dark writing desk sit on the left; the middle holds a circular hanging chair, birdcage, small doghouse, books, and wooden blocks. The right shelves carry books, a red-edged hexagonal clock, telescope, and a floor lamp. A locked green-lidded metal case, red cylinder, and a crate of cleaning bottles sit low in the scene.
- Goal
- Search the loft's drawers, desk, floor objects, and shelves, interpret the nested-hexagon clue and clock setting, and use the resulting items to clear the locked-case/exit chain.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the soapy cloth for in the Attic?
The rag comes from the crate of bottles and is labelled 'Soapy cloth,' so save it for a dirty, dusty, or obscured hotspot. It is evidence of a cleaning/reveal step, not a spare collectible.
How should I use the hexagonal clock?
Treat it as a time-setting control. Search the attic for the supporting time clue, then set both hands on the Roman-numeral face; rotating one hand without the other will not complete the puzzle.
Why does the glowing hexagon pattern matter?
It supplies a precise visual target: three nested hexagons interrupted by dark diagonal bars. Reproduce the internal structure when the matching panel appears rather than using just the outer silhouette.
