MONOCHROME Walkthrough - Step-by-Step Escape Guide (Video)
A complete MONOCHROME walkthrough: pry the doorway, sweep all four keys, read the code slip, enter it at the keypad and take the elevator out of the maze.
FAQ
How long does a full MONOCHROME run take?
Can you beat MONOCHROME solo?
What do you do after finding all four keys?
What happens if you die during the run?
Is there more than one ending?
How do you complete MONOCHROME from start to finish?
The full route is a fixed sequence of eight steps wrapped around two independent locks: four keys for the mechanical deadbolts and a four-digit code for the electronic keypad on the elevator. You cannot reorder the locks — the keypad does nothing until the keys are in — so the run is really a search problem wrapped around a memorized exit routine.

ROBLOX - MONOCHROME - [Full Walkthrough]
| Step | What you do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Press Enter the House and read the tutorial slides |
| 2 | Note the elevator, lock panel and keypad in the spawn lobby |
| 3 | Hold E to pry the planks off the DO NOT ENTER doorway |
| 4 | Sweep the basement corridors and open dresser drawers until you hold four keys |
| 5 | Insert each key at the lock panel — one indicator light turns green per key |
| 6 | Read the four digits printed on the slip atop the pale block |
| 7 | Enter the digits at the keypad beside the elevator, slowly and in order |
| 8 | Press Open Elevator when all four lights are green, then ride out |
That is the base game’s route. Part 2’s new floor (live since October 2, 2026) runs its own escape chain — a crowbar, a screwdriver, keys for the elevator and a control panel to disarm, with no keypad code — and is documented on the Part 2 page.
What happens in each phase of the run?
Each phase has its own page because each one is where runs are actually lost. Phase one is orientation — the beginner guide covers the first ten minutes. Phase two is the search: the keys guide explains the drawer sweep, and the map guide keeps you from going in circles in the identical-room maze. Phase three is the exit: the door code guide explains why the number is different in every run and how to read your own.
How long does a full run take?
Plan for ten to twenty minutes on early attempts — one streamer spent twenty minutes on the code hunt alone before finding the slip. Once the loop clicks, the run collapses: a dedicated solo speedrun video sits at about four and a half minutes, and the multiplayer walkthrough below shows a full group run with a monster-mode detour.

Why won’t the elevator open?
The elevator refuses to move for exactly four documented reasons, and all of them are fixable in seconds once you know what to look for.
| Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|
| An indicator light is still dark | A key is still in a drawer or in your inventory — find and insert it |
| Keypad rejects the entry | You typed an extra press or the digits out of order; re-enter slowly |
| The panel ignores input | You are standing too far away for the prompt to register |
| Nothing matches this guide | You are in a similarly named experience; the real one is published by @paramodal |
Died late in the run - is progress lost?
No. A death respawns you at the elevator lobby upstairs, keys already inserted stay inserted, and the keypad code remains the same for the rest of the run. The only thing a death truly costs is the walk back to wherever you were searching.
Last verified on October 7, 2026: the official Roblox page, rechecked after the Part 2 launch and its October 3 hotfix, still describes the same four-keys-and-one-code escape objective, and a full base-game run recorded September 21 — after the September 20 patch — completes all eight steps above in the same order, including the sequential keys-then-code locks. The Part 2 floor’s separate escape chain is documented on the Part 2 page.
We recheck this page after every update to the game — the homepage always reflects the current state of the escape route.
