As it says on the tin, August 25, 2019A one-room puzzle with a single puzzle, but a rather interesting one. I liked the mechanic. Took less time to solve than I thought it would when I got into it.

A hunt the pixel game transformed into counting, February 10, 2016In this game, there are 69,105 keys, only one of which will open the door. The key you need is the only unique key.
There are many categories of keys, and you can count each category. The number 69105 is I believe a riff off of Zork I.
As a mathematician, I hoped that the puzzle would involve some kind of bizarre combinatorial computation; instead, it's mostly just trying every category until you find a pattern.

The amusing mode and quick win, September 13, 2013(Spoiler - click to show)the amusing mode is found by entering fuc& in the game. the quick win is to x the keys until you have the brand names. count all the names. the one with 255 keys is the kind you need. then count the scratched keys of that kind. that should give you what you need. the rest is unneccesary

Little nice puzzle, January 7, 2013One-room puzzle. You'll need some time, a sheet of paper, a pen. Nothing more!

Fun, little diversion!, July 30, 2011I have to admit: I'd rather work on a logic problem than just about any other type of puzzle. Because of this, I quite enjoyed 69,105. There's no real plot, no sense of tension, but that's not the point. All there is, is you in a locked room with 69,105 keys, all with seven characteristics. Only one is unique, and you must find it.
What starts off as an exercise in tediousness actually becomes quite fun, due largely in part to the game's quirky sense of humor. Another nice touch is that the unique key is chosen at random upon startup. Unfortunately, once you realize what the secret is to achieving the solution, the replay value pretty much drops to zero.
Nevertheless, 69,105 Keys is an amusing little diversion, just perfect for when you don't have 40-50 hours to spend!

Quick and cute logic puzzle, December 19, 2010by Bernie (Fredericksburg, VA) Normally I don't give such a simple and short game 4 stars, but the logic behind the single, unique puzzle was perfect. As the game's description says, you are stuck in a room with 69,105 keys. If you can find the one unique key, you win.
The game is nothing more than a short logic puzzle. It's the type of game that I enjoy playing with a cup of coffee over breakfast, and that I will give to my 13 year old son. It will take less than 10 minutes for most people to play, and is recommended as a diversion during that quick break from work.

Escape the room- again?, April 7, 2010There are a lot of one-room escape the room games out there, where your only goal is to get past one (or a few) puzzles to get into the next room. Suveh Nux or Enlightenment are good examples, with a series of flash ones available all over the internet.
69,105 keys is very straightforward- one of the keys is unique to all the others, and is thus the key that opens the door.
Realistically, it seems like, were you actually THERE in the room, you could quickly scan the keys for the unique one, but maybe not. Instead you have to count them based on several distinct qualities, like their color, whether they have a scrach on them, the brand name, etc.
The game has numerous sesame street references, such as the "one of these things is not like the others" songs, and references to the count, and ever a dirty mode, in reference to the youtube "censored" count song, which was kind of cute. There are even references to how much the PC hates tedium, which is funny, because the game is specifically an exercise in tedium.
I rated this higher then other tedius games, becuase the humor kept the game going, and the puzzle was very easy and straightforward. If you were just learning how to program Inform, or some other system, this is the type of game you should make, one straightforward puzzle that gives you the opportunity to program several different commands well. No doubt further games by this author could be much more involved.
The story isn't very deep, but neither was some of the other great one-room games. Let's face it, how much story can you put in a one-room game without some kind of loaded backstory or cut-scene? And the game doesn't pretend to be anything bigger than it is, and I give the author props for that.
So if you're looking for a quick diversion- this is the game for you. If you want a long puzzle or conversation filled game like Enchanter or something, look elsewhere.

A Simple On Puzzle Game, September 14, 2009I'm not a huge fan of one puzzle games. They can be cute enough for a brief diversion, but once the player figures out the puzzle there's little enough left to the imagination. The key to this game (pun intended) is simple enough. After that it is a tedious matter to type in the variations to determine the unique solution.
Despite the utter tedium, which would normally earn a one star rating, I gave this game two stars simply because it was very well executed.
The author deserves credit for putting together such a clean, lean game. However, I really want more fiction in my IF.

Clever and Quick, March 6, 2009This game is like a candy. The gimmick of depth at the expense of breadth is sufficient to justify what little of your time it will consume.
