    >Turn the loose hook around, clockwise and counter-clockwise. Pull on it.
    It takes some effort to move the hook at all. You successfully manage full turns in either direction. You put all your effort into pulling it free. Instead your grip slips and you nearly clock your head on the fireplace.

    >Look on the back of the painting.
    You pick up the fallen painting. You'd expect dust or spiderwebs to have collected on the frame and back, but there is none. Other than that it looks ordinary.

    >Look up the chimney. Stick a ski up there and try to push something loose.
    You crane your neck and peer up the chimney. You see bricks, their pattern fading into complete darkness. Taking up one ski you reach up, the ski itself too dark to see once it--

    Tink!

    --The ski stops. You attempt to extend your arm again. It hits something hard and unyielding. It appears the chimney is blocked.

    You continue to search the chimney. Other than the blockage, you don't find anything.

    >Put on all the shirts.
    You put the seven shirts on. Thankfully they are a variety of sizes. It is somewhat warmer and you are now resistant to piercing damage.

    >Wearing the ski boots, go over the red ovals and try jumping over it, tapping with one foot and then the other, hopping, etc. to see how the color changes and when
    You jump over the red ovals. Nothing appears to happen.

    You tap each oval of lights with each boot. A few of the red lights flicker orange when the boot contacts the metal.

    You gather yourself and hop up and down. With the shirts and loose boots it is a little unwieldy. The oval you are hopping in turns orange when you hit the ground but return to red the moment you exit.

    >Line up the shirts on the ground, from smallest to largest. Take a mental picture.
    You take off the shirts and arrange them in the following order:
    Shirts

    >Put the ski shoes on the skis and place them over the ovals, with the shoes above the ovals.
    You place the ski boots within the red lights. As before, the lights turn orange. It's a perfect fit.

    >Take apart the rickety cupboard.
    With what, your bare hands?

    >Attempt to unscrew the leftmost hook from the mantel.
    You spend some time turning the hook. After at least ten turns nothing has appeared to happen.

    You type the word "YPOPBGR" and hit enter. Nothing appears to happen. Perhaps you need a different approach.

    Hint
    Though I fear to spell it out, you are on the right track
    The shirts are to be your guide but colours alone lack
    The information that you need to make the word complete
    Look and try again, my friends, you'll find what you seek!

  • Hmm, some of the shirts have little phrases, some have images.. how to get the letters from the pictures, or from the phrases for that matter?

    Yellow - Rad Like Dad
    Pink - Statue of Liberty
    Orange - Ice Cream Cone with Sprinkles
    Purple - WASD E-Sports are the only real sports
    Blue - T is for Tea Break
    Red - POLO, Ralph Lauren

    >Turn the shirts inside out and look for any information. Examine the tags closely.

    >Turn the shirts inside out and look for any information. Examine the tags closely.
    One by one you examine each of the seven shirts. What tags remain are old and faded to the point you can't make anything legible out.

    >Type 'PIRATES' into the console and press enter.
    You type the word "PIRATES" and hit enter. Something happens.

    The moment you hit enter the screen wipes itself clean. You hear the sounds of machinery twisting inside the safe. Gears lock. A sharp, constant clicking sounds slowly grows louder and louder, speeding and almost sounding like static as it goes. It hits a peek. Then, it comes to a slow, grinding halt.

    With a pop, the safe's door opens...

    ...Only for the gleaming padlock to keep the safe closed. It looks like you still need to find a key to open this safe.



    As you finish....

    In the corner of your eye, just for a second, you see the orange ovals of light flash to a bright green. Before you can take a second look there is a loud bang from by the fireplace. The fireplace at first looks completely normal, with the five candles you'd found placed where you'd left them. Then you see the hooks. There are only five hanging there, now, and then you see the sixth hook lying on the floor.

    The ovals' lights switch off.

    Are the boots still on the ovals? I think I left them there...

    They are. The lights around them are now switched off, though.

    Yeah, and when a picture was involved the first letter of what was in the picture. Ice Cream, Statue. Dunno why pink was at the end though.

    I was pretty sure when it made a word, even more sure when I remembered that the safe was behind a picture of a ship.
