# The Lost > A young man returns to the apartment building and enters an endless looping space — is this a deity's joke, or a devil's trick? A notice from someone who became an anomaly : The stairs here no longer have the concept of going up or down — moving to the right is moving forward, and moving to the left is going back. When you enter another floor, if it is different from the first floor, it means an anomaly has occurred. In this case, you need to go back in order to go upstairs. If another floor is the same as the first floor, it means there is no anomaly. You can continue forward to go upstairs. When the number on the fake head changes color, it means the current floor is a special anomaly floor. On special floors, you cannot simply go forward or backward. You need to complete an event or make a judgment based on the anomaly before you can continue upstairs. If you encounter an event-based anomaly, complete their event. They will tell you whether to go forward or backward. If you encounter a non-event special anomaly, such as a monkey — trust the monkey that cannot speak. If you encounter a crow, never follow the crow. Watch out for the hands on the ground. You may be transported to another world. ...... On the floor before the end, you will definitely enter the territory of a giant dragon. This is the LLM-readable summary for the The Lost game hub on OctoScout.
