Every guide on the site
Twenty-three pages, grouped by what they are for. Every one carries a date, and every number on them was read from official Roblox data on 2026-11-08.

What is on each data page
Five pages carry the site's original numbers rather than description. If you only read five pages, these are the ones with something you cannot get by playing:
| Page | The data it holds | Sample figure |
|---|---|---|
| Badge counts | All 27 badges, award counts, earn rates | First Night 1,339,348 |
| Game pass prices | Ten passes, prices, dates, permanence lines | 2,289 Robux total |
| Levels | Three level tiers and the drop between them | 45 players at level 50 |
| Update timeline | Every created and updated date | All ten passes rewritten 6 Nov |
| Maps and rooms | Eight named locations and their badges | Eight rooms, six with a badge |
Everything else on the site is description, route or judgement, and each of those pages links back to the table it depends on.
Three reading routes
First time in the building. Read what is it, then the walkthrough, then go play one run. Do not read the badge table first — it will tell you that 94 percent of players never escape, which is true and unhelpful before you have held a torch.
Stuck on the code. Go straight to the four keys. The short version: read the panel, do not trust a number from a forum, and if you want a fallback, 7825 was correct on 2 November and probably is not tonight.
About to buy Robux. Read the price list for what exists, then the buying order for what to buy first. The short version: 219 Robux on Radar, Shotgun and Infinite Stamina covers more than the 599 Sniper does for a new player.
How these pages are kept
Every page carries a checked date. The badge and game-pass tables are read from the Roblox API in one pass, so the 27 award counts and the ten prices always agree with each other. When the game updates — and it has updated weekly since September — the tables get re-read rather than patched.
If a number here disagrees with your game, the game is newer. The contact page takes corrections.
