Multipress "Ctrl-alt-delete" works for most

Your "once only in order" might confuse folk who fast read.
The 3 digit number has to start 1 or 2 is my start point but I'll get there. after Castres v Munster.
you can't have 5 as a multiplier; or the answer would be another 5 or 0.

Is it ‘ once only in order’ or ‘ in order to get’? Either way, he’s either worked it out or he/she is a skeleton propped against the wall.

If he's still in an Escape Room, I feel you might be too late.

Escaping from an escape room is easy. Just shout "let me out, I'm having a panic attack" and they'll let you out in no time.

They might not give you your money back, though.
