I keep thinking there is a dirt spot or a lost sock or something they are smelling for!
LOL

The suspense is killing me . At this point I do hope it is something to be solved because otherwise it's just mean bwaaaaaahhhhhahahhaahhaahha!!!!

I think the blue room is meant to be the boys' room, and the teal one the girls', as per specifications in one of the house notes. Each room has one associated action: giggle parties and mysterious odors (since boys tend to be a little sloppier). At least, that's how it makes sense to me.

Has anyone, other than me, thought that there may be something (or someone!!) buried under that room? I started wondering about this after some of the mysterious letters about "Margaret" and room specs. I dismissed this gory conclusion since this is a family oriented game, but I keep wondering if there is one last mystery concerning the smelly room to be solved that is connected to "Margaret" and the room specs.

According to a couple of game reviews I read Arthur has hinted that LDW will add more puzzles to the game by way of updates in future (no time scale given!). When you first visit an undeveloped room a hint pops up that says something to the effect that the peeps can pay to have the room renovated, or might be able to repair it some other way. That looks very much like a 'hook' on which to hang a future puzzle. I wonder if 'smelling the room' is another?

Arnie, I hope you're right about future updates to add puzzles and mysteries to be solved! Now the anticipation is going to drive me nuts - like the wait for VF2 for desktop!

I play on both iOS and desktop and I very much hope that future updates are released on both platforms (and Android). It would hardly be fair if desktop players were the only ones not to get regular updates simply because it's much easier to deliver updates through the Apple and Google Play stores (and, presumably, the Kindle Fire equivalent).

I did have a thought about the blue room and the peeps smelling it from the doorway. One of the notes from Margaret says that the room is to be big enough for 3 little boys. Now as the room was never finished, we know that something stopped Margaret and Bill from finishing it, Bill's death perhaps? My thought was that what the peeps are smelling might be Margaret's perfume. (Yes, ghost are reported to leave smells) If Bill had died, and with his death her hopes of having children, can't you imagine Margaret standing in that doorway, mourning not only Bill, but her chances of having all those children, too?

FadedLily, I totally agree. You have some very good points there.

I do not have the blue room yet, but my families are constantly. "Checking out strange smell" in the kitchen area. Is this something that needs to be solved or just something they do?
