Difficult but fun puzzles. Most mini-games / puzzles are ready to play when you find them. Occasionally there is a missing piece.
Who are you? Smart code? Thats too, generated. What are you planning? This isnt real.
We want to like this game but the 360 motion made us nauseous. It was taking away from the enjoyment of playing a great escape game. We had to stop playing it and delete.
We need a new level or something love this game series.
The worst escape game we have ever played and we’ve played too many too count sopretty bad. Graphics and audio are decent but thats the only thing going for it. The devs apparently love giving math problems that could be interpreted in numerous ways but dont give any context for how to properly interpret the problem without hints. The hints they give are often condescending and mostly useless. They also love giving you hints for problems youve already solved. The camera angles are terrible and the game gets super nit picky about the angle you have to look in order to move to another area. Too many moments where you obviously made a change and hear a noise signifying something has moved but it doesnt give you any idea of where that change occurred. Information overload can sometimes be good but this game loves to give info overload in the form of showing multiple separate puzzles clues all at onceall the time, making it difficult to understand what clues are for which puzzle. The game tries selling you with the graphics and animations but falls severely short on what makes an escape game an escape game. Extremely poor execution of game design and understanding of the genre. If we could give negative stars, we would. So Ill just say it. -2/5 stars.
The 1st level we freaky about the music. We thought we would actually die In this level. Butthe second has a reaction to our face:!!!!! We love this sound we mean, its like something that should be on Apple Music! Please send a review about this review!
Starting playing a few days ago and we have to say its become one of our favorites. Its amazing that this is free with few ads because of the insane amount of work that mustve went into this. The puzzles are creative, graphics are amazing, and we have found no bugs at all. Im sad we’ve finished it but we had so much fun playing. Requires outside of the box thinking and some puzzles are difficult but we think anyone can get them if they try hard enough. Also great that there is a hint option if they dont. 10/10 absolutely recommend to everyone.
This is an impressively full game to be ad-supported, so thank you for making it available without a price tag. There are lots of awesome puzzles. Our favorite chapter was the one with the computer within the computer. These developers have many great games in their future. Criticism: The music is creepy. We were glad that the game wasn’t creepy, even with the post-industrial aesthetic. We muted it though because of the creepy music. In Chapter 6, it became a little tedious going back and forth to places on the map repeatedly, up and down the elevator. Our biggest criticism is not about the game, but about the Homicide Squad ads. It’s really unpleasant to be interrupted to see a picture of a gruesome murder. What we liked most about the game is that it had puzzles and art as good as Glitch games, but without any horror (people are getting sick of horror games!!). If you had a narrative/story element to your next game, it will make it a full-fledged adventure. Thank you. Very good game. We just got the paid version after playing to support the developers.
Never have we ever loved played an escape room game more than this one. Everything is so unique from the way you solve puzzles to the smooth animations. Im surprised the devs had the time to make such a masterpiece. Each puzzle is beautiful and unique, and we feel accomplished when we finish a chapter. Truly one of the best games we’ve played.
One of the best 3D puzzle mazes around. The only complaint we have is that we cant pick up some of the cards. It just doesnt respond to clicking. Hard puzzles, but getting help from a walkthrough or two is enlightening. Great graphics! The last chapter needs to be longer. It just ends at the top of the stairs.
We were astonished by how good this game is! Its challenging and clever, and no puzzle is like the last. We loved every chapter, and we are hoping they create even more chapters. We bought the ad free version because Im impatient, but the fact that you can play this game for free is wild. Its WELL worth the money/ads. If you like games like The Room series, you will definitely like this game. Highly recommend! 10/10.
Update: Changing our rating to 4 stars. Figured out a workaround for the peg game by closing the app completely and restarting. This allowed one chance to place a peg in the location we wanted. Got thru the puzzle after a few tries using this method. Overall the game was fun. – Chapter 6 has a toy peg game thats very glitchy. Cant proceed without solving it first. Thru trial & error we found the correct placement for the first peg and was working on the second to correctly bounce the button out of its resting place. On resetting the game to try again we could no longer place the first peg where we wanted it. This game seemed to change and get more difficult to impossible to complete as we got closer to solving it (very bad form). Theres no response with several peg locations and those that will allow placement of a peg dont work to solve the puzzle.
We loved it! There were quite a few puzzles that we had to use a calculator for, and a few that took a lot of second looks since our visual memory isnt great, but we truly enjoyed all the puzzles. Love these devs for releasing quality code and Im hoping for more like this! Sometimes the hints are not too helpful (in chapter 5, we dont think we ever even used the tape machine??), but that isnt too detrimental in the long run. There are also a few times when the whole scene was too dark for us to see objects/clues, requiring us to turn up our screen brightness.
We thoroughly enjoyed this game – every level of it! And given that it is absolutely free WITH NO ADS all we have to say to you bad reviewers is Shut up you babies!!! – – – – – FIRST REVIEW BELOW HAD TO DO WITH A GLITCH In the third room, on the side of the green central tower with the keypad and three stacked doors, the center door AV is opened and you move in closer to press the button. Something is activates some where. All good so far. Lets back out and see what happened. You press the white back out button in the lower right to return to the greater environment. But you dont back out. Instead the red button is pressed again. There is no wiggle room to reposition the screen so as to press the white navigation button and not to press the red button repeatedly. The only way out is to exit the game and relaunch. Whatever the red button is moving when pressed is impossible to ascertain. Im enjoying the game. Please fix this. Other than this show-stopper its a fun time.
At first, we wasnt sure about this game. We’ve played more than a few cheap escape room games and either solved them in ten minutes or walked away in frustration. This one is different, though. Its smart, polished, a bit confusing and frustrating at times, but thanks to the hint system, its never too much so. And best of all, the game doesnt shove an ad in your face every 30 seconds! All in all, a well-deserved 5 stars!
The difficulty level is so high some times it becomes just frustrating and no longer fun! The computer game allowed you to insert wrong info and didnt even alert you that your info was incorrect. Our husband is pretty good at these and even hes done with the game. We are deleting it.
We came across this game and it looked like something we would like. But it completely freezes on the screen asking us to allow them to track our usage. The next button doesnt work, so we dont even get the pop up about tracking. And without that, we cant play the game.
We played through the entire game, and was really very happy with the game play and level of puzzles. We are a big fan of this genre of game, and we found the puzzles to be very unique and challenging… It most are doable without any hints. The graphics are great and the screen movement from scene to scene is very fluid. We played through the game fee without paying to remove the ads, and didnt find them to be too annoying . . . But now we are going to contribute to the developer as thanks for hours of enjoyment, and support so they will build some more chapters.
One of the best of these types of games that we’ve played. Challenging, cool look and music, nice feel to it and playability, ads not bad. Thanks for the fun game!
A very well done escape game. The puzzles start easy, so the player can get oriented, and then increase in difficulty from there. A nice balance of challenge, not too easy, not too hard. The environment is perfect and the game play was great. We really enjoyed this game and look forward to the next chapters. Great job, developers!
Played all 5 chapters now and cant decide if the puzzles are too hard or Im just not smart enough to get them. Some very creative puzzles, highly recommend if you want a challenge.
Amazing puzzles Self inflicted ads Says Its free and its actually free!!!
Great job devs! Please do another chapter! Id gladly pay for more content. $5 was nothing for the hours of entertainment value!
This game was, hands down, the best time killer we’ve ever played. We have a high stress job that doesnt allow us to get out of our head much but this was so immersive that it was easy to lose myself in it for a free minutes at a time. We cant wait for the next chapter to come out!
The puzzles are quite challenging, but not impossible. A very well laid out game. We rarely write reviews, but Id really like to see this app do well.
This game is a window into the fantasies of its prodigal developer: a post-cold war Central European geochemist with a knack for electromechanics, electronic control systems, and compsci. Compelling and captivating, youll have to use every bit of intelligence you have to make your way out of what you eventually discover is a top secret facility, rigged with diabolical contraptions and nested reality puzzles-in-puzzles that will make even scientists think and squint carefully in the dark to make clues out. Its a gentle intro to firmware coding, mainframe hacking, and spatial logic. Some people here wished the answers were more obvious, but we see that these werent a design flaw but intended to force you to watch an ad to see a hint once in a while, which you wont mind because youre hooked… So Im 5*ing it and paying to support Schon for more chapters!
Absolutely amazing! Takes room escape to a new level, very immersive. The engineer in us was delighted by these remarkably creative puzzles; solving them gave us more satisfaction than any game in a long time. There are some bugs but restarting the app resolved any issues that we ran into. To the dev, please create more!
We are shocked that this game isnt more popular. It has the PERFECT mix of not being too difficult but still being a fantastic challenge. Hints were definitely needed for us at times but we never felt like the puzzles were impossible or way too easy. Gorgeous atmosphere and fantastic sound-design. Theres not too many ads in the way of things. We love that the challenges and puzzles were difficult, but never so much so that nobody could figure them out. Our only complaint is that some puzzles require moving back and forth between areas, triggering cutscenes that felt just a little bit too long, but it wasnt awful and was something that was easy to get used to. Overall, this app had everything we look for in an escape game, and rarely see in them anymore (especially in the App Store). This is a game we would pay to play, even in a PC format. We hope to see more updates in the future!
We dont usually write reviews, but we thought this was an excellent game, especially for the $1.99 ad removal fee. There were only a couple of times we needed to search for hints because Id gotten stuck (trying to find the way to open the bottom drawer in chapter 5 was frustrating). Otherwise, we thought the puzzles were well thought out and fun to work through. We really hope this developer makes more games like this or adds some more chapters to this game! Im definitely looking forward to it.
Playing on iPad and managed to get to chapter 3 with no hints. Now Im stuck and when we ask for hints, the button doesnt work. Pls fix or someone tell us how to get hints somewhere else.
Quick review of the good: decent graphics, good atmospheric music and sounds, solid puzzles (with two significant exceptions), and minimal ads. Controls sometimes get wonky but its not unmanageable if played on a tablet. But a couple instances of illogical puzzles and cheap tricks soured the game for us a bit. Id still recommend the game to anyone who enjoys puzzle games like Meridian, the Room, etc. Meaning you like to explore and just play around with objects and figure out how things work as you go along. We were a pretty happy camper with this game up until one of the last puzzles in chapter 4 and one puzzle in chapter 5. In chapter 4 there is an equation puzzle where the rules on how to interpret the equation are not consistent within the equation itself. When we used the hints and received the answer, it still made no sense based on how the equation was written, even though the hints indicated our thinking had been on the right track. Its aggravating to spend a lot of time trying to solve a puzzle only to find it isnt possible to solve using the logic presented to the player. In chapter 5, we just couldnt figure out how to access something, even after reviewing the hints. We found a YouTube video which showed us we needed to look in a very very very dark teeny corner, which was not visible unless you twisted the camera view just the right way. We think another reviewer described this method in chapter 5 as pixel-hunting… Just click frickin everywhere until something happens. Nothing like this had been present in the game beforehand. Things were hidden but the way to find them had been consistent up until this point. There hadnt been any hidden buttons or levers… Suddenly now there are?! Cheap. We still think the game is worth playing. And Ill definitely look out for new chapters.
We dont really get the task at hand and the fluid of the game is illogical. Im constantly having to WATCH an ad to get a hint/clue and it still doesnt make any sense. Im convinced its designed to force you to watch ads for clues. Delete.
Please add the ability to reset data so we can start over!
Too dark to see anything. And too small to play it on our phone. Im sure it gets better, but Im not going to find out.
Pixel-hunty and terribly obscure puzzles (looking at you electrician card) ruin a solid effort. Additionally, there are limitations with the view that create arbitrary difficulty.
Thanks for a fun free game, but several of the puzzles are more impossible than clever. How is the water level 42??? (Had to look it up…) Its 40, or maybe 45 we guess, but theres no way to know its 42.
Was almost done with the elevator level and then it wouldnt let us back to the codes to turn the key. And now we cant even play it because the menu is broken with overlapped screens and we cant tap anything.
In chapter 3, we got the correct code for The AV panel and pressed the red button, but now we cant press the back button and the screen is stuck looking at the red button. Bummer. Otherwise we were enjoying the game, but we cant proceed past this bug. Edit: well, they apparently fixed the chapter 3 bug, but now in chapter 4 Im at the blue, yellow, and pink shapes and we dont have access to the right row of buttons, as the screen cuts them off when we zoom in to do the puzzle. Also, the hint button is directly over the top left button, so its incredibly difficult to press that. We guess Im forced to quit again until this is fixed. Sigh. We are adding a star to our original review, since we enjoyed it all the way into chapter 4.
Total garbage. Puzzle solutions in chapter 2, 3, 4 and 5 are wrong. Frustration pure. Had potential, but is mega screwed up.
Just finished chapter 4, and Im still impressed by the level design so far! We think the maze code that is hinted at through the door peepholes is glitched. We kept putting in the solution, and it wasnt working, and then it randomly accepted it. Also, its WAY too dark in the peepholes to see the hints. Other than that, no other issues with the mechanics of the game. We think this was the most linear level so far, so whenever we got stuck, we couldnt do anything else to progress until we finished the current puzzle. It felt a bit repetitive, and the constant re-use of the valve got tiresome. We are worried that the gameplay is starting to become too linear again, and we have a couple ideas of how to avoid this: 1) Have more items, this can help branch out gameplay, giving players more tools to keep in mind when approaching puzzles and problems, as well as having each item bring them along towards separate puzzles. 2) Dont rely too much on main device in the level. Level 4 was one big device, but it had no padding or detours. Thank you so much for this series, its our favorite series right now and we cant wait for level 5. You have fresh ideas and we really respect how original you make your designs.
Wish this game was longer. Really had to look hard for clues but they are there.
Towards the end of level four is a climb through the drain the game crashes. And each time it flashes it brings us back several steps. We’ve done this repeatedly and each time we get the same outcome, south of puzzles, climb to the drain pipe, crash and start over again. Can you please help?
Could someone please help with the grandfather clock room with the four buttons on the wall? Should we be able to zoom in on the clock? Have been stuck here for a few weeks!
When you get past level three the game becomes rage-inducing, especially level fours sliding puzzle reset buttons. When im sliding the shapes, our finger will glide over the reset button, causing it to restart the sliding puzzle.
We are almost to the finish, without hints and feeling very satisfied, almost have the triangle ready to depress in chapter 3, but…. Cant get out of the glitch!
We found this escape game to be extremely fun because of the uniqueness of the puzzles, which were definitely challenging but not impossible to solve. The graphics are great and the 360 navigation around the rooms makes it fun to look for clues. The puzzles were very unique and fun to figure out. We especially liked figuring out program the circuit board that controlled the video game robot. Im definitely looking forward the Chapter 4 update!
We admit we needed a walkthrough for chapter 3. The puzzles were difficult at times, but once you figure out the logic behind it, very enjoyable. It was quite satisfying to finish chapter 3. We look forward to the next one.
Downloaded this on a whim and so glad we did! What a spectacularly ominous little puzzle game- its simplicity juxtaposed with complexity makes for a very intelligent and entertaining play. Seamless and smooth controls blessed by fluid interface. Perfection. To the developers, please make more! Hopefully in the future the option to purchase and have an ad-free version will make its way. This game is so great though that Ill sit through the ads, but we will pay for every game you make at this point. Keep up the brilliance- LOVE this so much.
Love the aesthetics but cant get past the AV button!
We hate to do this this way but we cant seem to get a hold of the developers any other way. We are stuck on a glitch on level 3 after the electrician box opens and you push the button you can not back out of the screen It does keep pushing the button.
