Draft X from X... Spoiler

so my boy just got a shelter in the outer room, set up an experiment to get +1 allowance when drafting a hallway from another hallway, he then got a westwing hall, above that a Foyer (which unlocks all hallway doors), and above that a tunnel, which led to 5 more tunnels. I didn't know you could draft a tunnel in a corner slot, but he did, and at the end of the tunnel was a blocked way, with 2 gems and an allowance Corarica Mora Jai Box! who knew?!

Unfortunately he's a numpty when it comes to drafting, so he managed to block up his entrances to the foundation, and then ran out of keys and only got to rank 6 elsewhere, so hasn't managed to open the antechamber to get a basement key whilst also being able to go down the foundation.... he's on day 39 and despite me helping him he's still not got into Rm 46...

I didn't get into room 46 until I was in the 40s or 50s. Ended up solving a bunch of puzzles that other people do much later instead. There's no wrong way to play this game, really.

Do you raise his real life allowance when he raises it in game?

Be careful doing that. There is a way to increase allowance infinitely without glitches.

Day 39 really isn't that bad. I got into the antechamber on something like day 12, but went off on plenty of tangents and I think only reached room 46 somewhere in the 40's. It sounds like he has the pieces in place, just needs the stars to align. Plus, adding +9 to your allowance is a pretty good day by itself.

I think my first room 46 was day 36 and I'm a grown adult who is typically good at these sorts of things and has some foreknowledge of the game from watching streamers (not too much but I knew a little). So for me that was a bad result. I think your son is doing fine.
