Update 3.0 — what shipped
Systems in the current build.
- AI Caine. Talk to Caine in chat or the Talk to Caine UI (Call Caine + text box) when Roblox chat is off.
- Caine crashout. Insult him until anger fills. He transforms, pulls nearby players into a nightmare; use a computer to escape. Separate from the Cellar chat banish.
- Doorbell cancel. Ring the doorbell ([E] To Ring Knock) or flip lights ([E] Lights Turn Off) to interrupt a bed abstraction in progress. Success follows the Abstraction → Cancellation setting.
- Key Holder. Selected players unlock other players' owned doors. Each key has a 120-second cooldown. Normal settings include Skip Keyholder.
- Bathroom. At the end of the room hallway. Mirror staring drains Sanity; a dedicated mirror abstraction cutscene can play. Panic-attack recovery can also fire here.
- Aquarium. Shows top abstractions and a donation board for the server. Meetup / sightseeing stop, not a drain room.
- Panic-attack recovery. Panic-attack cutscene restores Sanity to full. Restarts your drain if you were mid-abstract.
- Crayon. Draw text on private-room walls. Does not change Sanity drain rates.
- Settings (3 tabs). Normal, Private Server, and Abstraction. Private servers get Saves for the current abstracted roster and optional Caine API key fields.
- Abstracted vision / audio. Stronger abstracted vision and muffled environment. Abstraction tab toggles Abstracted Vision and Muffled Environment.
- Spectate. Watch the session without holding a drain route.
Settings tabs
Normal · Private Server · Abstraction. Private servers unlock Saves and Caine API controls.
| Tab | Options |
|---|---|
| Normal | Music · Skip Intro · Show Hints · Skip Keyholder |
| Private Server | Sanity Drain · Caine API Key · Reset Caine · Saves |
| Abstraction | Abstracted Vision · Muffled Environment · Cancellation (50/50 · Always · Never) · Closest Friend |
Key Holder
Unlock owned doors on a cooldown. Skip the role in Normal settings if you do not want it.
Key Holders open other players' owned private-room doors. Empty or unowned doors stay closed.
- 120 seconds per key before that key unlocks again.
- Normal settings → Skip Keyholder turns the role off for you.
- Landing the Key Holder role can award a session badge.
Doorbell cancel
Interrupt a bed abstraction from outside the room. Cancellation setting decides if it sticks.
While a bed abstraction cutscene is running, another player outside can interrupt it.
- [E] To Ring Knock
- [E] Lights Turn Off
- Abstraction → Cancellation controls interrupt success: 50/50, Always, or Never.
Cutscenes
Bed, bathroom mirror, panic attack, and crashout nightmare.
- Bed abstraction. Private-room bed has its own abstraction sequence. Doorbell or lights can cancel it mid-scene when Cancellation allows.
- Bathroom mirror. Looking into the bathroom mirror during abstraction starts a dedicated mirror cutscene.
- Panic attack. Restores Sanity to full. Interrupts an unfinished drain.
- Caine crashout nightmare. Anger meter fills from insults → large glitch form → nearby players pulled in → find a computer to exit.
Not in Update 3
Upcoming List ideas and unfixed door rumors stay off the landmark list.
- Entering an abstracted player's mind / rescue cutscene stays on the Upcoming List — not part of Update 3 systems on this wiki.
- Exit Door / Abstract Door still have no fixed trigger listed here.
FAQ
What is the current update?
Update 3.0. Settings, Key Holder, doorbell, bathroom, aquarium, and crashout are detailed in the sections above.
Did Update 3 add a fourth official way to abstract?
No. The Roblox description still lists Isolation, Darkness, and hang out around abstracted people.
How do I cancel someone else's abstraction?
At their private-room door during a bed abstraction, use [E] To Ring Knock or [E] Lights Turn Off. Abstraction → Cancellation must be Always or 50/50.
What does Key Holder do?
Unlock other players' owned doors on a 120-second per-key cooldown. Skip Keyholder in Normal settings if you do not want the role.
Where are the bathroom and aquarium?
Bathroom: far end of the room hallway (mirror drain / panic recovery). Aquarium: meetup with top-abstraction and donation boards — not a drain farm. Map has landmark notes.
What is crashout?
Insult AI Caine until anger fills; nearby players can be pulled into a nightmare. Escape with a computer. It is not the Cellar banish — see Caine & Cellar.
