100% Complete Walkthrough Within 90 Minutes Time Limit

This walkthrough shows 100% game completion, within the 90 minute time limit. Everything from the levels “Leap Of Faith” and “Strength In Numbers” to the ending in “A Jump Too Far”.

It includes all images, all rooms and hallways, all secret rooms (1 may be missing), as well as all 15 pink cubes (2 unreachable?).

A first walkthrough of Antichamber can take anywhere from 3 to 20 hours to complete, as the player learns. This video walkthrough will help you reach the game’s end within 1.5 hours.

Gameplay Notes: Going for the black gun straight off was meant to make it all a little bit more interesting. Clearly this isn’t a hard try at a speedrun of the game and the player does get a little lost for the last 10 minutes as you see exactly how to finish the game, so your playthrough should be faster than 90 minutes.

Tip: One of the hardest “loop” the player had trouble closing was in “a loop that won’t close” puzzle. It turns out all that had to be done was walk down the hallway!

Speedrun In 8 Minutes

Thanks to its non-linearity, experienced Antichamber players can take shortcuts and finish the game in as little as 5 to 15 minutes.

Speedrun (No Esc) Without Room Teleports

The difference between this run and a regular speedrun is that you are not allowed to use the Esc key on your keyboard to go back to the main menu and teleport from room to room.

Tip: You can skip getting the red gun entirely if it takes too much time to go get it, and instead go back to the exit room. It’ll save you 1 minute, but could cost you 2 minutes in the The Escape level.
