Let Me Out hints
Added 2019-01-09 22:01:05 +0000 UTC
Okay, I think it's been long enough that I can release some explicit hints for Let Me Out without any concern about spoiling things too much. I don't generally like doing this too much because I like the community to be the ones to track down the secrets and make the walkthroughs, but because some time has passed I feel it's justified.
Oh, if you don't have the game, here are the links to it:
EXE version
BLORB version
Anyway, enough of the preamble - on to the hints!
- There are four endings that are based only on waiting for the 50th turn to pass. Trust and Lust will affect which of these four you get.
- Pledging fealty and waiting for turn 50 can also change the ending.
- Saying "fuck me" will also lead to an ending, but he's not necessarily going to do it right away.
- See that key on Lug's belt? You can get it. You just need to be kneeling in front of him where you can reach it... if you know what I mean.
- If you've got it that can lead to ending possibilities. He's not very bright so distracting him shouldn't be hard - you just need him to look away, right?
- You can convince Lug that Velexis is a witch.
- You can convince Lug that Velexis is a liar.
- You can convince Lug that Velexis is a murderer.
- There are multiple endings for the previous few points - the level of trust and lust you have will affect which you get.
- Velexis is pretty awful. Try insulting her. If she uses magic on you... that's pretty interesting, isn't it? How could you use that?
- Okay, so if you didn't get the last hint, you can use magic. But it also makes a difference who you use it on.
- Or you could just keep insulting her, heedless of the danger...
- Even if you don't know magic, you could just pretend, right? But you'd have to claim to be a witch first.
- The skull is cursed. Think about fairy tales - what can a princess do that will lift a curse?
- There are three skull endings. They each have the same path but require different conditions.
- There's a torch right there. That could be useful. But it would make a difference whether you had that key, right?
- Ever played an old text adventure and used the command "xyzzy"?
Feel free to give more explicit hints in the comments below, if you want to. :) I still enjoy it when people track down secrets and there's quite a lot of little surprises in LMO.
