The interactive mat is the four-color stepping mat included with the interactive DVD game Suzy Says!. During play, jump onto its colored sections when Suzy instructs you to do so, but follow a command only if she begins with “Suzy says.” The mat also features in the community-reported requirement for the true ending.

Set Up the Interactive Mat

The opening setup establishes how the mat is used:

1. Connect the DVD player to the television. The game runs on the television, where Suzy appears and delivers her instructions.
2. Place the interactive mat on the floor. This is the surface used for the colored-section jumping commands.
3. Start the game. Suzy appears on screen and explains the rules before the opening play sequence.

The mat comes with the DVD game; it is part of the initial setup. In the story, the girl discovers the game after her uncle finds it at work and leaves it on the table, as explained in her mother’s note.

How to Follow Mat Commands

The core mechanic combines choosing a colored section with checking the wording of each instruction. Use this sequence whenever Suzy gives a mat command:

1. Listen for the opening words. Check whether the instruction begins with “Suzy says.”
2. If it does, identify the requested colored section. The mat has four colors, and Suzy tells the player which section to jump onto.
3. Jump onto the instructed section. Follow the color named in that command.
4. If the instruction lacks “Suzy says,” do not carry it out. The opening phrase determines whether you should obey.

Treat the phrase check as part of every instruction. Choosing the requested color is only one part of the mechanic; the command must also meet Suzy’s stated condition.

The supplied information does not name the four colors or provide a fixed sequence of jumps, so follow the instructions given during play.

When Instructions Take You Away from the Mat

The early game focuses on jumping between colored sections, but Suzy later gives instructions involving objects elsewhere in the house. The material describes a command to touch the sunflower painting in the living room, followed later by one involving a rubber duck in the bathroom. These moments expand the activity beyond the mat.

During the painting sequence, the girl sees a dark figure resembling Suzy nearby. It disappears as she approaches; she then touches the painting and returns to the television. The account later describes her returning to the mat as Suzy’s appearance and behavior become increasingly unsettling. [src-334d9626ca]

These story events provide context for the mat’s role: it is the starting point for the colored-section activity, while later instructions can send the girl around the house. They do not supply an additional color pattern to memorize. [src-334d9626ca]

True Ending Requirement

The record identifies this community-reported requirement:

1. Place four candles on the mat.
2. Follow this with “look at these symbols.”

That sequence leads to the true ending according to the record. However, the supplied information does not explain where to obtain the candles, how to arrange them, or how the quoted phrase is triggered. Use this as an ending requirement to recognize, rather than a complete walkthrough of the ending puzzle.
