Brown Dyed Hotel is one of those no-instructions-given-figure-it-out-for-yourself games.

Got to the one with inflating circles and the line graph. Felt dumb. Quit.

The first few puzzles are entertaining, but it quickly devolves into "find this hidden thing" type challenges, or, worse yet, "click and drag this non-obvious object" levels.

I think it's making fun of me.

I beat the first level but I have no idea what I did. Then I got stuck on ether and was told I was ahead of my time.

Good grief. I read that as Brown Eyed Hotel. I've been so, so bad.

How do you get past univision? Is there more to it than 'BLUR'?

Agh! I was stuck on univision because I didn't see the 4th white dot. Arrrrrgh!

(Thank you.)

No song. Keep looking around, "corridor" is kind of fun.

Oh, you mean the one after that. Sorry, I said nothing.

Oh it's kinda lame. No music skills or key mapping necessary, just some tinkering.

I wonder when we get to the part where we have to burn the rope.

I was liking it okay until I got to 6 and it suddenly became extremely loud.

Once you've gotta figure out puzzles by typing in URLs, I feel like they've ruined the fun of playing it. Keep the puzzles in the game (like warbears) and I'll keep playing.
