Infinite Corridor Simulator is one of the puzzle types in Infinite Corridor from MIT Mystery Hunt 2021. Due to having multiple puzzles of the same type, answers and the number of solves and guesses are varied.

In this puzzle type, you'll see a dump of feeder answers and need meta-like solving.

These answers form a number of the last required room, which is also the Simulator type.

 

The meta version of the last required room, in fact, has all answers for Infinite Corridor round. Just move to the number of said room.

And said room holds answer to the puzzle.


While not everyone will share the same solve path, these pieces of writing should be constructive; if an alternate path is discovered, add it as an additional section of the solve path rather than replacing it entirely.
