SchoolBoy Runaway Walkthrough: All Puzzles and Endings

• “Oh my! How did I screw up so badly? I should have been more vigilant and cunning. With these skills, all I can do is get my ass spanked.”

After watching the opening video, check the places where items are stored (specifically in the hallway pull-out cabinets and the restroom). Grab the Washing Powder from the washing machine, place the Dirty Rag inside (it’s located in the bucket behind the curtain), then start the washer. Before doing so, make sure to turn off the light. Once the machine has finished washing the rag, open the door, retrieve the Clean Rag, and hide behind the curtain.

As someone who has been caught red-handed more times than I care to remember, I can confidently say that discretion is key when it comes to sneaking around the house. So here’s what I suggest:

Based on my years of handling safes, I recommend using the color of the central square as a guide to open the safe located in your bedroom. Here is how you should proceed:

First combination

• Top row: White, Blue, Yellow;
• Middle row: Red, Red , Red;
• Bottom row: Orange, Yellow, White.

Second combination

• Top row: Orange, White, Blue;
• Middle row: Yellow, Green , White;
• Bottom row: Green, Yellow, Yellow.

Third combination

• Top row: Red, White, Yellow;
• Middle row: Red, Orange , Green;
• Bottom row: Orange, Yellow, Red.

Fourth combination

• Top row: Green, Green, Orange;
• Middle row: White, Blue , Blue;
• Bottom row: Yellow, Green, Blue.

Fifth combination

• Top row: White, Blue, Green;
• Middle row: Orange, White , Orange;
• Bottom row: Red, Orange, Green.

Sixth combination

• Top row: White, Orange, Red;
• Middle row: Red, Yellow , Blue;
• Bottom row: Blue, Green, Blue.

Note: The combination may change! Use the Rubik’s Cube in the main character’s room as a guide!

In this secure container, various items can be stored, but for optimal convenience, it should ideally be your Car Keys. If you didn’t locate them here, an alternative would be to retrieve them by exploiting a flaw in the storage room. To do so, you’ll need to secure a Light Source, such as a Light Bulb, and switch it on. Then, direct the light beam towards the spot between the wall cabinet and the shelf initially.

As a curious admirer, let me take a closer look at this intriguing vase. I’ll gently turn it upside down to reveal the hidden key and the delicate flower inside. First, I’ll carefully place the flower back into the vase for safekeeping. Next, I’ll discretely lift the key and stow it away in the closet, ensuring not to create any unwanted noise that might alert my father.

Currently, if some essential items are absent, the best strategy would be to get your mom to leave the kitchen for a moment. This could be achieved by waiting for her to go water the plants, but using the doorbell is likely more effective – it provides extra time for you to search the kitchen thoroughly.

Initially, get your mother to open the window. To achieve this, play around with the handles on the pots and pans, temporarily disable the range hood, and take a look at the cupboards, refrigerator, and freezer as well. The freezer should have Frozen Meat inside. Although it requires defrosting in the microwave, it won’t be necessary for this particular scenario.

Prior to Mom’s return, make sure everything is returned to its proper position, such as closing lids and activating the exhaust fan. Usually, you won’t need the nails located in the large cabinet next to the stove for this task.

Note: If you find a Flashlight during your playthrough, turn it over and collect two Batteries .

Mother just opened the window for us to step outside onto the sidewalk. If you happen to have your car key, feel free to utilize it and retrieve an object from the trunk. This object might be a hammer, screwdriver, flashlight, or some other item.

If you’ve grabbed the screwdriver, head straight to the bathroom. There, locate the grate situated between the toilet and washing machine. Open it up to retrieve another item you need. You can put down the screwdriver now since you don’t need it anymore – just unscrew the mop holder where you found it.

1. To carry on playing, you’ll require a Charger which is located in various spots: the hallway, kitchen, bedroom, and living room. As for the room with the television, either wait until dad steps out to check his messages (you might want to send him a false message from your computer), or find an opportunity when he goes to the bathroom. Moreover, don’t forget to grab a Light Bulb – it can be found in those same locations.

• The password for the computer in the main character’s room is: Andrew2002 .

After obtaining the light bulb, place it in the storage room and gather all the handy items such as insect spray, a hammer (though not necessary for this guide), and a radio. Additionally, you may find a sleeping pill inside the small key on the hanging cabinet if it’s there.

1. To create some room in storage and be ready for your exit, place three batteries into the hidden radio and shut it on. Now, locate the Anti-Fat spray, sedate your father with a sleeping pill, discover the password for your father’s computer, uncover the code for the control panel, imprison your mother within the closet – once these tasks are accomplished, you can depart. However, prioritize each step accordingly.

1. Players have mentioned encountering this conclusion after exiting via the gate. However, simply leaving isn’t enough; you’ll need to achieve a second ending. To trigger the sequence, you must coordinate your timing perfectly and move towards the closing gate at the exact moment it is about to shut. One of the parents will attempt to apprehend the main character, but tragically, he’ll be squashed by the gate instead.

• “Holy shit… They almost caught up with me, but the gate played its role and detained my parents. I hope they won’t send me to an orphanage after this :0.”

Upon the initial cinematic sequence, take a moment to survey your surroundings and power up the computer. Type in the password “Andrew2002” to gain access, then navigate to the email menu on the desktop. The primary contact listed will be “Dad”. You can compose a deceptive message from an unidentified sender and send it his way.

Based on my personal experience, I would advise you to follow this sequence: First, head towards the bedroom where your father might be reading a text message. While he’s engrossed, take a moment to glance around the hall, which houses a TV set and often plays football matches. Before venturing into either space, though, let me share a tip from my past encounters – check the cabinet near the exit. In my case, I once stumbled upon a charger there, but for our current purpose, it’s irrelevant. Nevertheless, you might find something useful or interesting in the second drawer. Happy hunting!

When Dad’s occupied, I dash into the living room and start peeking inside each cabinet. I’m on the hunt for something hidden – in this case, it’s a Battery (but don’t worry, we won’t be using it here). There might even be a Screwdriver stashed near the TV among the cabinets, so keep an eye out!

Before the first parent enters the room, head to the bathroom (if you have a screwdriver handy), as there’s a grate in the floor between the washing machine and the toilet. If you find a tool like a screwdriver there, you might discover one of two things: a sleeping pill or a key to a hanging cabinet in the pantry. Once you’ve found either item, continue searching the room and you’ll come across a mop. Flip it so the long handle faces you, and there should be a screw hidden within. Use your screwdriver again to unscrew it, which will give you the first piece needed for solving the puzzle.

Next to the washing machine is a container labeled “Washing Powder,” and beside the mop there’s a piece of cloth referred to as a “Dirty Rag.” However, these objects are not relevant for this scenario, so please disregard them.

As a fan, I’d guide you this way: Step into the parental retreat, the door is nestled beside Dad, comfortably seated on the couch. To your right upon entry, you’ll spot a vanity table with a mirror. On this tabletop, you might find a hairpin. Use it to unlock the drawer on the same table and inside, you’ll discover a light bulb – our target item!

In this room, you can utilize the charger connected to your dad’s laptop as a makeshift noise-maker to distract him. Here’s a simpler approach: To the right of the PC, there is a shelf with a vase. You can lift it and flip it over, causing an unexpected sound that will make your father investigate. If you don’t have any empty slots in your inventory, first pick up the flower within the vase and replace it, then grab the Key from the floor. Afterward, turn around and conceal yourself in the closet. Make sure everything is properly placed before executing this plan.

Since your father is going to the bathroom, this could be a great opportunity for you to take a look at the cabinets in the TV room if you haven’t had a chance to yet.

1. Hurry to the storage room, put the light bulb inside to activate the light. If you scan the area between the shelf on your right and the wall cabinet, you might discover a hidden spot where the car key is located, although it may also be found in the safe within the bedroom closet. Keep in mind that there could be other places where the key appears as well.

To open the safe in the bedroom, use one of the following combinations (from left to right).

First combination

• Top row: White, Blue, Yellow;
• Middle row: Red, Red , Red;
• Bottom row: Orange, Yellow, White.

Second combination

• Top row: Orange, White, Blue;
• Middle row: Yellow, Green , White;
• Bottom row: Green, Yellow, Yellow.

Third combination

• Top row: Red, White, Yellow;
• Middle row: Red, Orange , Green;
• Bottom row: Orange, Yellow, Red.

Fourth combination

• Top row: Green, Green, Orange;
• Middle row: White, Blue , Blue;
• Bottom row: Yellow, Green, Blue.

Fifth combination

• Top row: White, Blue, Green;
• Middle row: Orange, White , Orange;
• Bottom row: Red, Orange, Green.

Sixth combination

• Top row: White, Orange, Red;
• Middle row: Red, Yellow , Blue;
• Bottom row: Blue, Green, Blue.

Note: The combination may change! Use the Rubik’s Cube in the main character’s room as a guide!

You might discover Bug Spray not just in the pantry, but occasionally it could be hidden under the kitchen sink or in different cabinets as well.

During this period, it’s possible that the father might briefly leave to glance at his phone messages. On his return, he usually peers into the hero’s room, so remember to keep things in order.

Performing these actions will prompt your mom to open the kitchen window, allowing you to step outside into the yard.

I’ll use the key from my pocket to unlock the car, then grab the hammer stashed inside. I’ll sneak by the window, keeping low to avoid drawing attention from the father. If he spots me, he might investigate that area, so it’s best to stay unnoticed!

Having spent countless hours experimenting with various DIY projects and learning from my mistakes, I can confidently guide you through this unique process. First, retrieve the wood from the mop – it will serve as a crucial component in our upcoming tasks. Next, to progress, we need to defrost some frozen meat; here’s where things get a bit unconventional.

Typically, it won’t leave you enough time to grab the meat and make a quick exit via the window. Instead, your best bet would be to return to the room, bide your time until the mother moves to the kitchen, and then use the bell to attract her back out, giving yourself an opportunity to slip away unnoticed.

As a food enthusiast, I’d suggest stepping out again to transfer the thawed meat into a bowl. A clever distraction for the dog should follow, giving me the perfect moment to proceed with step two.

1. Keep in mind that performing each action might upset your dad, so take it slowly and wait until he finishes talking about his imaginings. In addition, avoid using these actions on the stairs while your father is in the bathroom. While you’re waiting, look for a garden hose near the gate. Connect it to the blue barrel beside the stairs and turn on the water tap. This will help you achieve step three. And don’t forget to put everything back where they belong after you’ve finished, before making any noise or disturbance by hammering the steps.

Once prepared, fasten every step onto the ladder and ascend into the loft. Give the area a spritz of insect repellent before grabbing the crowbar. In case any essentials are absent, utilize the crowbar to search the floor of the wardrobe.

1. Head to your bedroom and contrive a false email or message on the computer to keep your dad occupied. Once he’s preoccupied, take advantage of the moment by sneaking a sleep aid into his beverage.

Hurry up and make your way to the attic, then retrieve the crowbar hidden under the wooden planks sealing the rooftop opening. After that, traverse along the roof to its farthest end of the house, and drop down onto the pile of hay on the other side.

This way you will escape from the house and get the fourth ending:

• “It was a bit high, but the soft pile of hay saved my legs from breaking and I escaped successfully. Hooray! Now I can go play with my friends.”

To achieve this outcome, ring the doorbell repeatedly to annoy your mother. Be cautious, as each bell ring causes the character to become more agile, eventually sprinting. Quickly duck behind the kitchen door following every bell use, then make a swift escape to your room (she frequently checks on you while going back to see if you’re doing your homework). In time, she’ll become exasperated, open the gate, and dash off to your friends. This will provide an opportunity for you to slip out through the main door.

• “How stupid it was to leave the gate open. Of course, I like solving puzzles, but I couldn’t refuse such a freebie :D.”

To achieve this conclusion, you need to initiate your actions as follows: Flee the house via exit #4 (exiting through the roof and landing on the hay), then make your way to the riverbank and plunge into it. Be cautious not to dash towards the right-hand road, for that would trigger an ending sequence. Instead, depart from the haystack by moving leftward and locate some water. Immerse yourself in it and spend a while there. This scenario will result in the main character’s demise, granting you this specific conclusion.

To achieve this quick exit from the house, you’ll want to utilize in-game shortcuts (cheats) provided by the developer. They’ve conveniently included a mod menu within the game, allowing for self-exploration and experimentation.

As a seasoned gamer with years of experience under my belt, I can tell you that this ending suggests the player has discovered a novel exit route from the house. It seems that escape through the rooftop (ending #4) is the key here, and instead of landing on the hay, they should aim for the area next to it, specifically on the right side. Initially, the protagonist will tumble onto the fence; however, to ensure a successful escape, one must continuously press the forward button to ensure he lands free.

Additionally, you could utilize different malfunctions to ascend various objects in an attempt to flee the house. For instance, attempt to scale the doghouse. Alternatively, traverse the cables suspended over the doghouse to achieve that conclusion.

As a fellow gaming enthusiast, I’m pretty sure there are alternative paths leading to this game ending. If by chance you’ve discovered some hidden routes or secret tricks that I missed, feel free to share your insights in the comments below. Together, we can make this guide even more comprehensive!

Members of the Linked Squad team frequently incorporate hidden surprises and subtle conclusions, like the “Backstage” feature in SchoolBoy Runaway, which is accessible to all players.

It’s pretty easy to do. If you’re playing without a mod menu (cheats):

If you are playing with a mod menu:

• Activate the Noclip cheat and go down under the house textures;
• When you get downstairs, deactivate the cheat code so that the hero ends up in Backstage.

Currently, there’s just one hidden advantage for players during the initial act. As more chapters unfold, we’ll be sure to enhance the guide accordingly. Should you spot any errors or wish to contribute additional insights, please feel free to share them in the comment section!

Following a recent update, the developer has altered the conditions for acquiring legal cheats. Now, players are required to access their computer and navigate to the terminal. Once there, they should input the subsequent commands:

• Menu mode on — enable the mod menu;
• Menu mode off — turn off the mod menu.

Initially, to activate the cheats, you must finish the game and unlock all six endings (excluding the seventh one due to certain unavoidable circumstances). The process of achieving all endings is outlined earlier, so you’ll need to carry out the steps independently.
