You begin in a room with four doors, each leading to a new room that you haven't visited yet.

When you ask a creative person how they did something, they may feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it; they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after awhile. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things.
