Goldbugg Quoting john:
i started off by just getting glitched out the map and now i dont know where to start ive tried to fly aroung in spectator mode but i still have no idea where the beggining is.

FOR THOSE LOOKING FOR SPAWN: If you go to spectator mode and find the giant pink square it has command blocks and pressure plates. It is connected to a glowstone rectangle thing and on it has a sign that says "SPAWN AT MAP START" go back to survival/advent ure and step on the plate to begin your map. Hope this helps! If not, go to youtube and search up Escape the Library and there is a video by Stemister and you can see his starting point to find it.

Higgy Really good! 100% recommend to anyone who likes a good puzzle!
I only had one issue. Spoilers for something major in the map:

When fighting the Heart, the Spirit Ashes I was given didn't work. I had to go into Spectator/Creat ive to get some from the Nether Spire that worked. I don't know if anyone else had this problem

Endorite I had a lot of fun with this but did experience some issues. It seemed like all the bugs came up when I logged out for the night, so perhaps that somehow caused it? For one I think my least favorite one was the quiz room, I realized that I kept getting the answer wrong because all of the poisons were getting delayed so for me the answer that was correct did not work. I also struggled on the disasters one, because I couldn't figure out how to get the 2nd and 3rd rows of items, I also couldn't see signs to start all of the disasters, so I couldn't quite decide what would work and what wouldn't because I was just guessing what my regen would be like after a few of them. Other than that I had some issues on the creeper jumps, I had to leave and come back before I figured it out cause I thought you had to right-click or something. And during the extra ending, it was completely broken so I had to go in creative mode and just skip the parkour section which was disappointing. The only other issue was one of the parkour sections in the extra ending as well, I was stuck for about 15 minutes and none of the jumps I tested were possible so I didn't know how to complete it and had to cheat past it eventually. Besides that though it was well done and I loved the storyline and it was clear to see how much effort went into it! I think my favorite parts were the library maze, and the summoning sections, it was fun to figure out how to get past those sections! Overall I give it 4 stars, and it's fairly high up on my current ranking of maps rn!

Ediacus Really enjoyed the map! The builds were good, the story interesting, and the puzzles/challen ges were entertaining from start to end. Some of my favourite things were the little world building tidbits that made the world feel more alive, and the exam portion that tested your knowledge of Minecraft mechanics. I also enjoyed the final boss fight against the heart of the library, and the ending wrapped up the story quite nicely.
A fun and detailed map, keep up the great work! :D

Zaidie I tried this map and when i finished killing all the museum parts and destroying the terracotta nothing happened, no door opened just.. nothing.. i have tried so many things but nothing worked... i placed all the terracotta i had on the emeralds but i was still missing few and no " red glass " opened [ the one with the creeper and the one above my head ] and i just gave up.. it was fun and interesting until that part.. no idea why that happened or if i missed something..

Will So I tried to play this, in the recommended version and all. I was sort of lost all the time, I read the books but didn't get what was I supposed to do. Nothing really worked, If I wanted to get to the museum part I had to break the glass in creative mode and flip the lever for the glass in the ceiling to go so I could go on with the map. The boss fight thing just crashed the map, I spawned one of the fights and from then on nothing else in the map worked. I couldn't shoot anything. The crossbows never worked and I had to get a bow to finish the creeper thing. When I gave up and broke through the ceiling to see the whole thing I saw a lot of stuff that I didnt even get to see. I probably made things wrong, but I really didn't know how else to do it. The map looked great and interesting, the decoration and story is incredible and this really could've been a great experience if I had instructions of what to do (I know it's a puzzle map but I somehow skipped the whole thing??)

TheFoxOverlord Can you post a walkthrough? I'm not sure where to go after completing the nether room. Love it so far!

HatBeemo Quoting HereComTheBIGgai:
While flying with the elytra in the Museum boss fight section I accidentally managed to glitch through the wall straight into the next stage of the map. Just letting you know that that's possible, and I am guessing that it shouldn't happen.


Darn, thought I got all the bugs! By next stage, you mean you glitched through the yellow barrier above the beacon? Did you restart the map afterward to continue play?

Thank you for enjoying the map, and do let me know the details on this glitch!
