"Dorm sweet dorm" is a Chapter 1 objective in Escape Academy 2: Back 2 School. It sends you from the lobby up the stairs to the locked dormitory door, where a padlock clue (spade, heart, club) requires you to hunt down three founder portraits spread across the building's floors and count the symbols on each. Once you derive the code and get through the door, you finish by entering the dormitory that matches your student number.

Overview

The quest has two distinct halves. First is a symbol-counting puzzle: three founder portraits, one per floor, each associated with a suit (spades, hearts, clubs). Second is a matching step: after the padlock opens, you must locate the dorm room tied to your personal student number. The record confirms the full sequence — lobby door, stairs, dorm door clue, three portraits, count the symbols, input the code, and enter the dormitory matching student number 3517.

How to Complete

1. Go through the door to the lobby. This begins the objective [src-0dc02cf791].
2. Head up the stairs to reach the door to the dorms. The door is secured with a padlock and displays the clue: spade, heart, club [src-0dc02cf791].
3. Find the three founder portraits — there is one on each floor. Each portrait represents one of the suits (spades, hearts, or clubs) [src-0dc02cf791].
4. Count the respective symbols on each portrait: the number of spades, the number of hearts, and the number of clubs [src-0dc02cf791].
5. Input the code into the padlock. The correct counts are 3 spades, 4 hearts, and 6 clubs, giving the code 346 [src-0dc02cf791].
6. Go through the door and find the room matching your student number (3517), then enter your dormitory [src-0dc02cf791].

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

Step 1 — Leave the starting area. Open the door leading into the lobby [src-0dc02cf791].

Step 2 — Climb to the dorm door. Take the stairs up. At the top you'll find the dormitory entrance, marked by a padlock and the spade/heart/club clue that tells you what to look for [src-0dc02cf791].

Step 3 — Search each floor for a founder portrait. The three portraits are distributed one per floor, so you'll need to move between levels to find all of them. As you examine each portrait, note which suit it represents and tally how many of that symbol appear on it [src-0dc02cf791].

Step 4 — Build the code. Order the counts by the clue on the door: spades first, then hearts, then clubs. In the documented playthrough the totals were 3 spades, 4 hearts, and 6 clubs, producing 346 [src-0dc02cf791].

Step 5 — Open the padlock. Enter 346 on the dormitory door padlock and pass through [src-0dc02cf791].

Step 6 — Find your dorm. Inside, locate the door bearing your student number — 3517 in the recorded run — and enter it to complete the objective [src-0dc02cf791].

Tips

• Confirm your student number first. If you don't remember it, the walkthrough notes that your own portrait on the portrait wall carries your student number, and there's a mirror in the restroom if you need to check what you look like [src-0dc02cf791]. The same source describes opening the matching locker with the key in your inventory and taking the $3 inside [src-0dc02cf791] — a useful bit of context before you head for the dorms.
• Keep the clue order straight. The padlock clue reads spade, heart, club, so record your counts in that same order rather than by whichever portrait you find first [src-0dc02cf791].
• Don't skip floors. Since each portrait sits on a different floor, a missed floor means a wrong digit. Sweep all levels before touching the padlock [src-0dc02cf791].

Rewards

The record and available material do not specify a discrete reward for this objective beyond opening access to the dormitory and entering your assigned room, which advances the Chapter 1 storyline toward the next objective ("Better Book It!") [src-0dc02cf791].
