Room Setup

Upon entering the room, they see many tea leaf jars lined up along the shelves on the two walls, and two scrolls (with digital display) on the wall across from them. There's also a sideboard, with teacups and a kettle on it.

Investigate Room

Curious to know what the game is, they started investigating the room and checking out the jars on the shelves. They realized that each jar has different patterns on its four sides, and they could be spun around!

Jars Illuminated

Suddenly, the spotlights above a few of the jars lit up and turned back off after three seconds.

Noticing the Scrolls

One smart guest noticed that the two scrolls on the wall are showing what looks like the tea leaf jars in the room, except that the patterns shown on the jars are different.

Wrong Jar

And so the guests try to spin all the jars around to get the scrolls and the room to match. However, when they tried to spin one of the jars, they hear a loud sound of pottery breaking.

Time Crunch

Everytime they finish matching the illuminated jars to the scroll, they hear a gentle gong sound and an increasing number of jars gets lit up. They run back and forth to the scrolls, trying to remember the locations and patterns of the jars illuminated. Some jars are higher on the shelves, and they have to climb to reach them.

Failure 2.0

After a few rounds of spinning the correct jars, they hear the kettle whistle getting louder... Suddenly, they hear the loud pottery crashing sound and realized they failed again! This time, it is because they didn't manage to get all the jars in the allotted time..

Never Giving Up

Now that they've figured out what they need to do, the guests are determined to try again and win the game.

All Smiles

Before they leave the room, the camera at the corner of the takes a snapshot of their proud smiling faces and sends it to their Open World account as a memento!
