Blue flags mean completion of either main play content areas or some Nates adventures or some Kaines adventures (others have no indication).

Red flags mean completion of a secret bonus area within the area its in, not necessary for any locked squares).

Locked squares are either:
1. the next square within a zone for you or the next zone itself. in either case you must complete the current square completely, all puzzles, all custom items and all quests (be sure to turn in all quests).
2. the next Nate or Kaine Adventure. When you qualify for those then the Town Crier should tell you what to do.But mostly it means that you have to had completed the prior Nate or Kaine completely, and gotten far enough in the area to be able to start them, and for Kaine you must have built the Detective Agency building n the Commons.
3. the flux. see 1 above.

do you have any quests done in the top quest bar? that should say where to go. In the case of the Mines, to complete the mines one had to turn in the long mines quest all the way back at the first square of the mines. Other areas might be similar.

The Detective agency is a commons building, comes somewhat after the school and stone smith, before the alchemy shop and Inn. Not sure how to start it if you don't have it, but the town crier is supposed to tell you about everything that is available to do... But I know of at least one thing the town crier does not tell anyone about, building the stables, one has to accidentally walk behind the general store to see something can be done. unsure about other things, but walk all over the commons.
