[Alright, here I go, something simple. First time here, so if this fails it will at least serve as practice. I'll be taking it slow, so maybe 1-2 a day.]

You wake up in a small room. You are a humble sheep of moderate intelligence with a fondness for FRESH GRASS.

What will you do today?

>Press red button. That one looks the most like it has a picture of grass next to it.

There is a faint clicking sound from somewhere in the room.

>Push the yellow button

There is a momentary rattling sound before a hatch in the wall opens and deposits a pile of FRESH GRASS into your FOOD BOWL.

Mesmerized and awed, you look upon it. At this moment there is nothing but you and your meal.

Your RAVENOUS HUNGER for FRESH GRASS makes quick work of the food offering. In the process, a small wrench drops to the floor.

You retrieve the C-LEVEL ACCESS CARD taped to the underside of the bowl. It looks important and particularly inedible, so you store it in the WEAVES of your THICK FUR COAT.

Feeling lonely, you proceed to hug the wrench affectionately and then add it to your WEAVES for later.

It appears to be a hidden compartment. Inside is a cavity with access to a rusty pipe with a valve. There's a warning label on it.

Next to the pipe is a small red object with an odd symbol. It doesn't seem to be attached to anything.

You also notice the bottom of the small compartment is peeling up, likely from moisture.

Peeling back the covering, you find a water-logged note smeared with dried blood. You don't know what to make of the cryptic message, or whether is was addressed to you, but the bloody hoof-print matches your own.

You return to the buttons and press the blue one. It jams in the active position as the water gauge in the wall starts to rise. The wall begins to groan and crack as the tank rises past full.

The gauge bursts and the room begins to fill with water at an alarming rate.

The valve is as rusted as the pipe and doesn't budge. There's a small nut at the base of the lever. Perhaps it could be loosened.

You drink your fill and serenade the door with your best sheep call, hoping for assistance. The door is not moved. Your calls go unanswered.

After failing to get attention, you return to the exposed pipe. You decide to try the wrench on the nut. It fits snuggly. A few quick jerks and the valve turns.

As it clicks into place, one of the buttons on the wall beeps. It's the one sharing that image on the pipe.

You retrieve the map before it's swallowed by the water and look at it closely. There are crayon scribbles all over it and a lot of X's.

The water level is still rising and is surprisingly cold. Beginning to panic, you pound the button repeatedly until you notice something drop down from the ceiling. It appears to be another hidden compartment.

Vents open along the walls, lowering the water level though it is likely only temporary.

Looks like we're in the top-left room - the secret compartments are marked, as are the buttons. Uh, let's not press the top button any more. Or breathe from that mask, no idea what's in it.

It looks like there's a hidden third compartment in the corner of the room with the water tube?

>What's that red thing up in the breathing mask compartment?

You take a closer look at the door first. There is a pane of thick clouded glass on the other side of the bars, rendering the room beyond obscured.

Inspecting the ceiling compartment, you find a BIG RED BUTTON with an exclamation mark on it. It is out of your reach. You also note the several feet of spooled tubing connected to the BREATHING MASK.

>It looks like there's a hidden third compartment in the corner of the room with the water tube?

If there is, you see no visible mechanism for accessing it. Perhaps it is hidden somewhere you haven't looked yet.

OK, the glass is a problem.

A lateral thinking approach would be to find a way to close the drainage vents (pressing the green button again?), and as the water level rises float up until we can reach the BIG RED BUTTON.

Examine the vents more closely, in case there's anything that's been stashed inside them. I'm guessing the the way things were intended to work was that pressing the green button would open the vents and fill the room with some kind of noxious gas so we'd have to use the BREATHING MASK to breathe. Except we've turned off the gas pipe.

One question is why the room's flooding in the first place. I'm guessing that shouldn't be happening. So... check the basin in case something's obstructing the drain.

>>138597

It's flooding because the blue button jammed.

>>138590

If the water level gets too high, use the BREATHING MASK to breathe. Sheep ostensibly float, so once you get high enough, push the red button. If that doesn't work, then use the roof hatch to brace, while kicking the glass with your hooves. If your kicks can weaken the glass, the weight of the water should be enough to break the panel away.

Also, this is the room you're in. From the red and green it looks like two people were drawing on this map, the green person second. The green person doesn't think C-2 and C-1 are bad, but they agree that frowny face is bad. If you get past frowny then follow the green one's marks and ignore the big red X. That will lead you to the stairs, which hopefully go up so you can escape the flooding.

Every inch of water above a point increases the pressure on that point by 0.037 pounds.
I would estimate that Sheep stands about 5' tall, which makes the room about 8' tall.
The top of the window is about the same height, and it looks to be about 1.5' tall. Adjusting for parallax, it looks to be about 2' wide.

When the room is full, there will be 3' of water above the top, and 4.5' of water above the bottom. Since it's a linear change we can say that the average pressure on the window will be the same as at the midpoint, 3.75'.

45" of water means 1.665PSI. The surface area is 432"^2, so the total water pressure on the window will be about 720lbs. We can ignore the ambient pressure since that's being applied to both sides, meaning 720 is the force difference.
Kicking the window would be useless, but hitting it with something like a wrench could work.

However, we shouldn't ignore the pressure on the door itself. The door goes about 0.5' above the window, and about 3.5' below it. It's about 3' wide. The total area of the door, then, is about 5.5'x3', so 16.5'^2. The water level difference will be 2.5' to 8' for an average of 5.25' thus an average pressure of 2.331PSI acting on an area of 2376'^2 for a total force imbalance of 5,540lbs.

The clincher is that all that force is going to be restrained by the hinges and latch, so depending on the construction of the door there's a good chance it'll give way under that much pressure - which is about equal to the weight of two cars.

I could have done all that in metric, but I didn't feel like doing things the easy way - can somebody check my math?

You've been doing a lot of thinking, and have come up with a few plans of action. First you press the GREEN BUTTON again, hoping to seal the vents again. It beeps with a very incorrect sound and does nothing. Perhaps something needs to be done before it'll function again. Unfortunately you can't imagine what.

Moving on, you decide to inspect each vent for hidden treasures. Your effort yields success. Pressed against a thin grating inside one of the vents you find a PINK CRAYON. You name it PINKY and stash it in your WEAVE.

As you continue through the room, you examine the WATER-DISPENSER BASIN. It doesn't appear to possess a drain like you hoped. Instead there is a cap over a small reservoir. Inside, wrapped in a GREASY CLOTH you recover an ODD KEY labeled C-1. You add both to your increasingly crowded WEAVE.

Wielding the SMALL WRENCH, the remains of the WATER GAUGE doesn't put up much of a fight. You smash up as much as you can. The resulting overflow of water is too much for the vents to drain away. The room begins to fill again, much quicker this time.

>Ride your food bowl like a mechanical bull.

You don't know what a 'mechanical bull' is, much less how you'd go about riding one, so you put the bowl on your head instead. It is quite fashionable.

>Say "Hastur Hastur Hastur" over and over again.

You don't possess the skills or intellect to summon mythical beings. Bleating will have to do.

>Press the green button?

You've already tried, the button doesn't seem to work anymore.

>Put the breathing mask over your face. When the water gets high enough, swim up and push the red button.

Donning the BREATHING MASK, you wait for the water to rise. It doesn't take long, but when it reaches a critical height, you suddenly realize you don't actually know how to swim. You flail your arms and legs to stay afloat, but your THICK FUR COAT provides adequate buoyancy.

As soon as the water is high enough, you hit the BIG RED BUTTON as hard as you can. The door already groaning under the pressure, it bursts free from the frame as well as its hinges, sucking you out of the room before a much stronger emergency containment door slams into place.

Congratulations, you escaped your cell!

[I may stop this here, since it was mostly practice, and there's other ideas I'd like to try out. Also need to find a better method to these more quickly. Either way, I hope you all enjoyed it!]
