Is there a way of turning the sound off, the sub-woofer was vibrating the  
windows with the yellow room?

The blue room's a real pain.  The time to roll to the next tile is too 
short, given the difficulty of the user interface.

Regards,

I have figured all but the white room, the single color rooms were super 
easy, The double color rooms required me to make diagrams (!) But the 
white room is inscrutable. I just can't seem to figure it out...

What? no .. why? Took me a few minutes to solve each one. Granted, the 
yellow room was a bit annoying...Just to get the pattern in the right 
state so when you pushed one block, the adjacent blocks would be lit as 
well. If you're careful, the maze in the blue room is easy to follow 
around. And the red room was the easiest of all.

The two-color rooms weren't too bad, but I don't have a photographic 
memory, so I had to document. The green room was a PITA, though. I 
actually resorted to creating a bunch of layers in Photoshop to figure 
out how everything fit together. :D

But the white room I simply gave up on. I haven't a clue. I've tried 
color-theory related means of doing things, I've attempted matching 
colors to the outside, I can't think of a way to solve it :/

6 sides, 3 orbits per side, 6 colors per orbit = a hell of a lot of 
combinations.

Shamelessly copied from the comments page:

"White: Void

 The walls are made up of three circles which can cycle through a
variety of previously encountered colours when clicked. Each wall has a
colour and a size, such as red-small or blue-medium. You must look
through the rooms you have already completed to find the circle size on
the wall of that room's colour. I can't really explain it well, so look
into it for yourself.


 And that's what Dark Room wants you to do. Good luck!"

Any help?

John
