One More Night Lobby Secrets & Hub Unlocks
Paintbrush, hammer, buttons, and other hub tasks that unlock real starter gear.
The One More Night lobby is more than a waiting room. Hidden doors, minigames, and interactables grant achievements that unlock Starter equipment for Standard runs. This page covers the secrets players search for most, cross-checked against Miraheze Lobby / Achievements notes and hub secret videos.
Gear payoffs live on Achievements & Equipment. Ending uses for the brush: Paint the World Purple.
Jordi’s Paint Brush (must-do)
- Walk to the cafeteria / El Bar section of the hub.
- Find the locked door behind / beside the counter area.
- Spam-click the door until it breaks open.
- Enter the short hallway and side room.
- Interact with the paintbrush on the table (laptop props sit nearby).
Reward: Jordi’s Paint Brush starter — friendlier Jordi odds and required comfort for PtWP setups. Achievement name: The Paint Brush.
Strongest Hammer minigame
Play the Strongman’s Hammer cabinet in the hub and land a near-perfect hit. Community reports settled around 95–97%+ depending on patch — if 95 fails, push higher. Reward is a hub achievement that feeds progression toward useful gear listed on the achievements page.
Buttons, cola, and donations
- Press (or witness) the scattered hub buttons — some are awkwardly placed — for the button-hunt achievement.
- Drink Bloxy Cola until the explosion proc awards Did You Shake It? (every 100 sips auto-explodes per wiki notes).
- Donate tickets at Grïd’s Corner donation machine for Not a Charity.
- Complete the outdoor Fish Book entries for Seen the Fish (dozens of unique fish as of Rearranged Void era).
None of these replace Night 20 skill, but they clear trophy clutter and unlock side gear.
Grïd’s shop worth buying
- Flashlight skin crates (cosmetic)
- Hub movement items such as Speed Coil (also grants an achievement path into a main)
- Ninja Belt when you own several active mains — it strengthens Music Box winding, Adrenaline windows, and more
Spend tickets after you know which mains you actually equip. See Achievements & Equipment.
Matchmaking and lobby hygiene
Late-2026 updates teased improved matchmaking and lobby flow. After any hub redesign, re-walk El Bar before assuming the paintbrush door moved. Confirm with Patch Notes and Discord pins on Links.

El Bar door troubleshooting
If spam-click does nothing:
- Confirm you are on the live experience, not an old private server build.
- Walk the full cafeteria / El Bar perimeter — hub props move after redesigns.
- Try a different camera angle / zoom; some clients miss the click volume.
- Rejoin after a patch if Discord reports the door temporarily broken.
Once opened, the paintbrush interactable is usually on a table near laptop props. Interact until the achievement toasts.
Ticket economy tips
Tickets fund crates and utility buys at Grïd’s Corner. Prioritize:
- Progression unlocks you will actually equip (Speed Coil path, Ninja Belt when ready)
- Starter-enabling secrets (brush first)
- Cosmetics last
Do not spend every ticket the night before a PtWP push if you still lack the brush.
Fishing book patience
Seen the Fish asks for many unique outdoor catches. Treat it as a between-queue activity, not a blocker for Night 20. Community fish lists change with seasonal hub props — if an entry will not register, check patch notes before assuming a bug.
Why secrets matter for endings
- Brush → reliable Jordi notes → PtWP
- Strongman / coil style unlocks → movement comfort on finale nights
- Ninja Belt → stronger Music Box / Adrenaline windows for False Savior and beyond
Secrets are optional for TitN, but they are quality-of-life multipliers for every later route.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for One More Night survivors.
How do I get Jordi's Paint Brush?
Spam-click the locked El Bar door until it opens, then interact with the paintbrush in the side room.
What score do I need on Strongman's Hammer?
Aim for the mid-to-high 90s. If 95 fails on your build, push toward 97 based on community reports.
Do lobby secrets work in Sandbox?
The brush unlock is account-wide, but Starter items themselves do not apply inside Sandbox runs.
Is the paintbrush required for PtWP?
It is the recommended starter for collecting Jordi notes reliably. Full route steps: Paint the World Purple.
I cannot find the El Bar door after an update. What now?
Re-walk the cafeteria perimeter and check Discord / patch notes. Hub layouts move; the spam-click door is still the documented brush path when present.
Are lobby achievements required for Trapped in the Nightmare?
No. TitN is teachable without them. Unlock the brush before serious PtWP attempts.
