Escort is the seventh level of Doorhaven. It introduces paths that can be entered from both ends, leaving the player with many options to choose from. As a result, this is arguably the first puzzle in the game that cannot be solved easily through trial and error, encouraging the player to think logically about their goal.

Description

Regarding your movement speed: You can hold [Up] to move faster on the ground, and [Down] to slow down, which is very helpful in cramped spaces so you don't run into a key or door on accident. You can also press [E] to toggle Auto-Run, which switches the run and walk speeds.

Puzzle Logic

The only purple key in the puzzle must be spent for the exit, so no other purple door in the puzzle can be opened.

Due to the previous point, only one pink key is accessible, which also must be spent for the exit. So no other pink doors can be opened either.

From this point, the player can just follow the forced move logic from the previous two puzzles to win.
