EscapeMONO is a first person game set in a dark laboratory. You must investigate your surroundings, solving puzzles and interacting with strange creatures to make your escape. There are 7 Steam Achievements, all documented in the walkthrough below.

Office

Take the duster from the shelves. Look down at the carpet and pick up the key, then use the duster on the carpet to collect some dust. Next look up at the cage on top of the shelves. Open the cage by using the 2 latches on the left and then clicking on the door. Click on the creature twice, then take the puzzle piece (1/4). Touch the creature again, then back out.

Turn left twice and go through the green door into the washroom.

Washroom

Look at the note in the trash can for a password hint. Turn around and leave the washroom.

Office

Turn right to see a desk. Use your key on the locked desk drawer. Open the drawer and look at the hint inside (it has the letters, B, C, D, E, L, O). Back out and look at the computer. Combine the directions from the first hint with the letters from the second hint, then enter the password BLOODCELL. Read the notes on the computer - the final screen gives a hint for the upcoming keypad.

Turn right and look at the keypad on the blue door. Use your duster on it to see that the numbers 0, 2, 6, 9 have been used. Using the hint from the computer notes, and with a little trial and error, work out that the code is 6209. Enter this code, then go through the blue door.

Laboratory

Examine the window to see a pattern of red lines on the iron bars. Look at the trolley and pick up the creature's horn and a scalpel. Put the horn back on top of the creature here, then click on the creature and take the key. Touch the creature again. Look at the locked collar on the creature to see that it needs a 5-digit combination.

Turn right twice and search the shelves and cupboards to collect a dropper, a small beaker, some dye and a glass slide. Turn left twice and use the dropper on the creature to get a sample of blood. Examine your glass slide and use the dropper on it to put the blood on the slide. Now use the dye on the slide. Turn right twice and put the glass slide on the microscope. Look through the top of the microscope SCIENTIST.

Pay attention to the relative sizes of the different cells you can see through the microscope. Back out and take another dropper from the drawer. Turn left and look in the cabinet here. Examine the box on the left and open it with a combination based on the sizes of the different cell types:

Medium: Red crescent
Large: Pink spikes
Small: Purple circle

Open the box and take the curved horn. Turn left and use the key on the door, then go through.

Clean Room

Take the reacher grabber from the far wall. Look in the bath tub. Use your reacher grabber to get the small object, which is another horn. Once the water drains, look into the bath tub. Use your scalpel to remove the 4 stitches, then attach the horn to the creature. Click on the creature twice and take another puzzle piece (2/4). Touch the creature again.

Turn left and click on the crack in the wall twice, then take the next puzzle piece (3/4). Open the locker and take out a light bulb. Now turn left and examine the bags. Use your scalpel on the nearest bag twice to cut it open. Attach your curved horn to the creature, then click on it and take the puzzle piece (4/4). Touch the creature again POKE POKE.
