  • Loved It!

    You can’t compare this with any other game, because there’s nothing else like it! If you like room escape games you’ll love this, hours of game play, tried not to rush it as I was enjoying it so much!
  • good but

    i am really enjoying the exploratory nature and simple mechanics of the game but framerate falters and sometimes freezes when moving from point a to point b, i have to wait for a couple of seconds before i can move forward (a bit frustrating at times). I am not sure if the issue is from my end but none of my other games is suffering from frame rate issues.

  • One of the best escape adventures

    I’m always looking for new escape rooms, but often when they get rough I find myself turning to online walkthroughs to make sure I am getting everything done in the right order for it to work. This takes a lot of the fun out because then you end up just following instructions and checking your work like it’s some kind of assignment instead of a game. This is probably one of the most immersive rooms because you don’t have a specific order you have to do things in. You can enjoy exploring without feeling lost and follow the things that interest you instead of trying to check off a long list. The movement and gameplay is also really pretty and immersive. If it doesn’t click at first just remember there will always be a ought keys and the map is confusing and can be ignored so you can remove those anxieties. Just check things out and the story will follow you really nicely.

  • Great!

    Love it! Perfect level of difficulty with options for help throughout the game if desired. I can’t wait for future updates!
  • “A” for effort and style !

    I am 80% through the objectives and I have enjoyed every minute! I don’t want it to end! The map is definitely helpful but I’ve also had to take my own notes to remember specific areas that require multiple visits. Personally I love the challenge. This has been as enjoyable as The Room series and I applaud and encourage the developer to keep up the good work!

  • Fantastic game!

    This is shaping up to be one of my favorite games of the year. A large and complex map, easy controls, great attention to detail. Classically rogue like, with the feel of the “Room” games, mixed with Zork. Gameplay relies on cards to take actions as you move through a maze of alleys and rooms and sewers and turrets, along with keys to spend on opening things. The developers clearly have a love for detail, and the graphics were wonderful, a little retro but still very sharp and clear. This game is for people who like to make maps, explore, look for minutia, and take their time solving games. No hurrying here. I saw that other people had some problems, but they must have been fixed, or the problems must have been due to impatience, as it played beautifully for me.
    A few comments for the developers:
    1. The map provided is pretty useless, as it doesn’t show you where you are. It needs work to be a helpful tool. It might be best to make it a map that adds as you discover things.
    2. I wish there was a feature to go back to where you were before you win the game. I won unexpectedly, when there was still a lot for me to do, but apparently I have to start all over, which is a bummer. I mean, I had TONS of stuff left to do. Maybe it shouldn’t be possible to win without achieving every major task? At least let us undo and go back to the game if we win prematurely.
    Loved the game. A lot.

  • Escape enthusiast

    I really enjoyed this game! I got stuck once and had to use a walkthrough. Terminology could be explained a little more, most was easy to understand or figure out. Kept me busy in the game and scenes helped keep interest, so did collecting along the way. Thank you and looking forward to more!
  • 2 stars for now....

    Was looking forward to playing this game, and for the price I thought It would be good. I have an iPhone 6s and have found that this game is extremely choppy and slow. Please fix....I really would like to try and play this game.....
  • So much fun

    If you enjoy puzzle/ escape the room games you’ll love this. I couldn’t put the game down till I finished. It was very challenging and clues don’t really help that much which made it even more fun for me.
  • Love this game

    This is such a unique escape game. I love it. The visuals are beautiful and it’s long enough to feel worth the purchase and short enough to keep your attention.

    Suggestion for the developer: please give us a way to go back into the game to try a new ending without having to play through from the start.
