Cube Core
Cube Core is an attractive point-and-click, room escape game that recently made the rounds. It's not a very long game and it is quite logical to solve, though in at least one part you will have to be extra observant to catch a clue or you will be looking for a walkthrough quicker than you can say "Area 51".

There is a walkthrough for Sphere Core here.
A work of warning though, it is very spoilerish - not the place to go if you just want a hint!
Point and Click Room Escapes are my favorites. I almost got this all by myself and most of it was logical, which some of these games are not, however,...
I would never have been able to figure out the pipe code without help because it looked like 515
That seemed to stretch the logic for me. Too bad because up till that point I thought it was great.
Not bad, but not too good either. I like how short and peculiar it feels. Still I didn't enjoy it THAT much. I'll put my usual nagging in the spoiler box, just in case.
1. The couch. Man, I hate when these games include an arbitrary hot spot which, when clicked, suddenly shift perspective so I can do what I actually wanted to do. I have a knife, I want to cut that armchair in pieces, but I cannot until I click at the spot approximately 2 inches right of the chair. What? Silly, unintuitive and unnecessary.
2. The rat-maze code. OK, perhaps you find this clever, I find it gimmicky and illogical.
3. For some reason the game didn't let me do the correct thing in the end, i.e. put the core in the cube. I had opened and closed the iris like an idiot the core didn't want to go in. I give up, wander around more a little bit, try to find some more obscure 4-number combos (like, I dunno, the number of bricks times the number of arrows) and finally read the walkthrough to realize I have been trying the correct thing all along. VERY frustrating.
There. All in all a nice game, but nothing spectacular. Also, what happened with the embrio and the rat? Someone'd better feed them while I'm walking around in that light...

There is a bug:
If you know the code numbers that give you the knife and the remote control, you can bypass most of the puzzles, because the cube doesn't care whether you've charged the power cell.
Specific steps:
Shrink yourself and enter the cube. Go into the right-hand room and enter code 9431 on the panel. Push the button. Get the knife. Push the button again. Enter code 6287. Push the button. Get the remote. (The walls will turn green at this point, even though you haven't touched the valves.) Leave the cube and return to full size. Use the knife to get the power cell from the back of the couch. Face the cube, press button 1 on the remote, put the (uncharged!) power cell in the top of the cube. Press button 1 and then button 2. Take the key, unlock the door, and you're done.
In Sphere Core, is there any purpose for the big screw in the middle other than
to remove the panel? Even though I got it loose by using the screwdriver on the four little screws, every time I use the screwdriver on the big screw it replays the panel-dropping-to-the-floor animation.
And any hints on what to do with
the other two square chips?
I'm mad i tried to post a whole sphere core walkthrough and guess what, there was a comment submission error! I lost the comment i'm really mad<:(
[Edit: Sorry Kevin. :( We think we have worked through the issues with comments today, so the next time you sign in it should keep you signed in permanently. Sorry for the inconvenience while we work on some necessary site upgrades. -Jay]
On Sphere Core, how do you get the screwdriver to work on the plate?
I see four screws in the corners. I've tried hovering, clicking, pushing, scraping, etc. all four of them. I've done it with the screw in the middle of the floor in every position.
Nothing seems to work. Help please. What am I missing or doing wrong?
I thought I had tried enough variations on the percentages. I must have missed one. I did 50, 20, 30 from left to right, and that worked. I was expecting the dead rat to animate, but it doesn't. You get a new rat. I took the live rat, powered up my locked-in power core and the rest was easy.
It was another fine little time passer. I'd enjoy these more if they were logical. That's a quibble when the games are free. And there are always walk-throughs. And, in fact, Resorting to walk-throughs gives me the opportunity to socialize, sort of, since I enjoy reading the comments of others.
