We Love It's Guide to…

The Exit 8

You are trapped in a repeating underground passageway and must find your way to Exit 8. The route looks like the same subway corridor each time, with doors, posters, lights, and a suited passerby among its details. Walk through each section and inspect the surroundings for anomalies—anything that has changed or seems out of place. If you spot one, turn back; if you see no anomaly, continue forward. Reach the exit by making eight correct decisions in a row. A wrong choice sends your progress back to the start, so remembering the corridor and checking small details are central to advancing.

Walk a looping underground passage, spot changes in each corridor, and choose whether to turn back or continue to reach Exit 8.
