Lorelei and the Laser Eyes Review

Lorelei and the Laser Eyes is an absolutely engrossing and incredibly challenging puzzle game that will keep genre fans busy for hours on end.

With respect to the specifics of that next step, players must now spend some time exploring the hotel. While it is recommended that fans of puzzle games use this time to examine documents and become familiar with the hotel's layout, they are not required to do so. Indeed, all that players must do is quickly visit the basement and third floor and then meet "him" in the hotel's entry room.

The basement can be accessed by descending the stairs in the hotel's entry room and passing through the opening in the top-left corner of the hallway. The third floor can be accessed by going up the stairs at the top of the hotel's entry room and then climbing the stairs on the left.

As soon as the meeting concludes, players should enter the room on the left and use the computer to make a save. Fans of indie games should then pass through the opening in the top-right corner of the save room, to get behind the reception desk, and interact with the key cabinet. Players must then unlock the key cabinet, and the following section explains how that is done.

The lock on the key cabinet features eight squares that are marked with black lines. Players can alter the positions of those black lines by rotating the squares, and the goal with this Lorelei and the Laser Eyes puzzle is to situate the lines so that they create the number 1962.

The "Letter Signed by Robert Sidney, January 2, 1963," which is on the table to the left of the key cabinet, is dated 1963, and it makes reference to "last year" (1962).

After collecting the Room 2014 Key from the reception key cabinet, players can return to the entrance and go up the stairs at the top of the room. Fans of games with unique art styles should then go left, to ascend another flight of stairs, and use the Room 2014 Key on the door marked with "2014" to enter.
