The countdown to ER Champ is ticking away, and the excitement is real! Whether you are a seasoned puzzle veteran or gearing up for your very first championship adventure, one thing is certain: speed and precision are your best friends. To help you solve puzzles like a pro and avoid any technical hiccups on game day, we’ve put together a quick guide to mastering our game interface.

How to Master the ER Champ Interface 

To make your gameplay as smooth as possible, we’ve designed a fresh, intuitive interface. But in a high-stakes competition, every second counts. Here are the core mechanics you need to practice:

• Keyboard Shortcuts are Your Superpower: Don’t waste time clicking around. Learn the hotkeys to quickly open your inventory, switch between rooms, or zoom in on clues. Check out our full list of shortcuts on our How to Play guide.
• Managing Your Inventory: Your inventory holds the keys to victory (sometimes literally!). You can easily inspect items closely to find hidden details you might have missed at first glance.
• Combining Items: Found a flashlight and a battery? Drag and drop items within your inventory to combine them. Experimentation is highly encouraged - if you think two things belong together, try it!

The Upcoming Stress Test: Saturday, May 30th! 

Before the main event kicks off, we need to push our servers to the absolute limit - and we need your help to do it! On Saturday, May 30th, we are running our official Stress Test.

Here is the lowdown on what it is and why you should care:

Does it affect your Championship score?

Absolutely not. This is a non-mandatory, practice run. No pressure, no penalties.

Why should you join anyway?

It’s the perfect, risk-free sandbox to test your internet connection, try out the brand-new interface with your team, get used to the hotkeys, and sync up your communication. Think of it as a warm-up match before the grand finals.

Gear Up for the Challenge

Don't wait until the official qualifiers to figure out how to combine items or split tasks with your teammates. Gather your squad, review the rules, and log in this Saturday to help us stress-test the system while sharpening your skills.
