Lohdehvis Show Spoiler

On the 45th expedition of the Fan Ages Touring Club we visited Lohdehvis by Mike Newman. See Minasunda’s video!


Lohdehvis, first released on January 2011, is a short, meditative escape room. It starts as a cubic room with a few hints, as you solve the puzzles (based on geometry), the room expands and becomes a corridor.

Many puzzles are cartesian coordinates with the axes being N EE AH and 3 4 5.

First door:
. 3 2
. 1 .
. . .

Second hint (recreate the shapes on one wall by combining those on the other):
. . 1 2
. 3 . 4
5 . . 6

Second door:

. . 3
1 2 .

Third hint (from the beginning of the corridor):
x . x

. x .

Third door:
. . 3
. . 2
. 1 .

Fourth hint: areas.

Fourth door:
1 . .
. 2 .
3 . .

Final puzzle:
Click the 3 plates with the cubes.

You haven’t really escaped, but now the corridor ends with a meditation room

The ending is interesting, but don’t expect excitement The age has difficult enough puzzles, and good visual details. The puzzles have sound effects, but there is no music.
It is probably an age that is more suited to individual exploration, although it can be fun trying to figure out the solutions in a group.


A recording of the Twitch stream is available.
