Pretty interesting puzzle game. Took a while to figure out that is up, down, left and right.

A clever concept. It's a shame the challenge is unfairly magnified by the fact that the instructions given are wrong.

Orange guys look left and right towards the column the safe room is in, and look straight at the camera if it's in the same column as them.

Yellow guys look up and down towards the row the safe room is in, and look straight at the camera if it's in the same row as them.

Also, diagonals count for the "red guys turn blue when adjacent" rule.

I hope these corrected instructions help everyone else enjoy the game more. ;)

Neat puzzle game. I think less specific clues would make it more interesting.

It's unplayable on Chrome, though:

@Ryusui: Thanks! I fixed the instructions.

Good Idea! You could even increase the difficulty a bit by only using one red/blue guy. With two, it can be too easy since you can triangulate the room pretty well when both turn blue.

The games doesn't have instructions within the game but on the webpage. Even with the instructions it was difficult to figure out what was going on. It says find the exit but no mention it is invisible and the other color guys are trying to help you not kill you.

Nice game, cute characters, interesting puzzle. Could use some form of variety as you progress through the levels.

Cool puzzle game, the concept is really interesting. The game is overall very fun, though I do wish it was harder.

Cute characters! Some interesting puzzling.

I think the concept is very appealing. Given a bit more polish I'm sure this could be really addicting :)

Very clever game! I like the idea, but I do think that two of each type (and one new clue every turn) is a bit too much, making the game too easy. Keep polishing it, if you can!
