## What is ALUMNI?

An escape room inspired adventure. Trapped in a past time - can you use your puzzle solving skills and escape? Play as a scientist transported back in time to memories of college, trying to escape the nightmare reality. Explore areas and take in your surroundings. Use all of your puzzle solving skills to make your way through Ridgeway College and return back to the present.

Working long hours on your recent research with experimental time-shifting serums at Ridgeway Space/Time Labs has taken its toll. You promise yourself a break after the next batch of results.

Taking a moment after hours of painstaking research you drowsily make yourself a refreshing coffee, moments later some drops of the serum accidentally fall into your mug.

Feeling unsettled you notice your mistake. It’s too late! You realise you are now set to experience the time-shifting properties first hand. After a few moments your world distorts and reality changes, you are transported back in time to your fragmented memories back at Ridgeway College.

Everything is familiar but broken in some way. Now trapped in past memories, it is up to you to solve the puzzles and escape the nightmare reality you have created for yourself, attempting to return to present times.

### 4/5 — Clumsy interface

*2026-05-07*

The premise is good and the puzzle solutions take good observation and exploring every nook of each scene. The clunky navigation really does let the game down though, I shouldn’t have to be colliding with door frames in 2026 because it is nearly impossible to walk in a straight line towards any point of interest! Is it so difficult to move point to point with 360 visual at each point? 
I’ve played nearly all your other games with great enjoyment, and I do think the graphics are a bit repetitive in this, I’ve been counting up janitor step stools and wastepaper baskets in case it’s a future puzzle!
Currently stuck as I have a four digit code but a six digit puzzle…

### 5/5 — It’s a hoot!

*2025-06-26*

I get maybe half of the puzzles on my own. The rest I get from a walkthrough. Then I either slap myself for stupidity or I go “Huh?” Either way, endless room after intriguing room. Lotsa fun, as long as I can go get the solution and move on. Wouldn’t do to get stuck.

### 3/5 — Geht so…

*2025-04-12*

Grafik ist OK, Rätsel nicht allzu schwer, aber…
Die Steuerung ist grottenschlecht, kein Autosave und keine In-Game-Hilfe. Wenn da nachgebessert wird, gibt’s vielleicht auch mehr Sterne.

### 1/5 — Doesn't save progress

*2025-02-27*

After taking a break from playing, when I resumed, progress wasn't saved.  My new Input codes were but the game was compltely reset.  Wasn't that fun to start with so wil be asking for my money back.

### 3/5 — Glitch can’t finish the game

*2024-12-08*

The game was really great for what I could complete. No matter what I did the correct code won’t open the door so I could start the next level/chapter. I deleted and reloaded the game multiple times and it still stopped at a specific door about 2/3 of the way through.

### 5/5 — Confusing fun!

*2024-06-04*

Don't know why others have said this game gives them troubles because it worked flawlessly with absolutely no glitches for me running off macOS Sonoma 14.5.  A good long game with some puzzles that'll make you bite your lip until it bleeds.  Have to confess I had to cheat a few times and go to a walkthrough site, and even with that I was still scratching my head. Love the artwork and the abandoned look of the school.  I'll be playing it again in the very near future.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2022-12-26*

Hard just enough, I’m a fan of escape game and this one deserves a 5 starts. Good job!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review! As the sole developer of the game, it means a lot to hear that you enjoyed it and found the difficulty level just right. I'm thrilled to hear that you're a fan of escape games and that you feel this one deserves a 5-star rating. Your support and encouragement are greatly appreciated, and I'm grateful to have players like you who enjoy my work. Thank you again, and I hope you continue to enjoy playing the game!

### 5/5 — Excellent game

*2022-12-20*

I am not good with the directional arrows, the motion is difficult for my dyspraxia to get to grips with, so it took a while to have a go at this one.

Nice long game,  motion isn’t dependant on time, or hiding, so can be done at your own pace. 

Options available for sound control, and saves.  (For which, I would suggest you do regularly)

Such an enjoyable game.  It follows a very logically quirky storyline.  Puzzles are sometimes a little unusual, and working them out a little challenging.  However, it is a puzzle game, not an excuse for a glorified hidden object scene.  

I loved the game concept, what a difference from the early games. Would be lovely to not have to do the directional arrows, as I have no joystick to help, but that is such a minor issue.

Thank you for the quality graphics, challenging puzzles, long game, and control options.

Keep them coming.  Worth every penny.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! I'm glad to hear that you found the game enjoyable and appreciate the effort you made to overcome the difficulty caused by the directional arrows, particularly given your dyspraxia. It's great to hear that you found the game's length and pace well-suited to your needs, and that the options for sound control and saving were helpful. I'm thrilled that you found the storyline engaging, and that the puzzles were both challenging and unique. I appreciate your feedback on the directional arrows, and will keep it in mind as I continue to develop future games. Thank you again for your kind words and support, and I'm glad to hear that the game was worth every penny!

### 3/5 — Good game but needs an update - glitch.

*2022-10-13*

Update: I have deleted and reloaded the game.  I am now stuck at an earlier point of the game than where it froze originally.  I know I am entering in a correct code (I have passed this point before and have double checked on a walkthrough).  So I am giving up.. 
Essentially this is not finishable. 

So I am a huge fan of escape games. This game has been a pleasure to play up until today. It has been lengthy, plenty of puzzles, and it is challenging. Some of the math puzzles are far fetched (why would I know to multiply a bunch of numbers together?) but most of the puzzles are logical. The movement is clunky at times but easy to overcome. I have been making sure to save as I go though I think it saves after every chapter. ( I learned the hard way after getting up midway in a chapter and having to replay it.) The problem: I got up and walked away after completing the gym chapter. I reloaded the game and got a white screen…. I exited and tried again.. same thing. Sigh. I dont know if any others have had the same issue or not due to lack of reviews. I do think that the game is worth the price as long as this glitch is fixed or not a common issue. I will estimate around 4  hrs of play up to this point.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, I haven't had any reports on the issue you are having, if you would be kind enough to email me directly (help at m9games.co.uk) with more details then I can look into this and post a fix :)

### 1/5 — Not working with trackpad

*2022-09-13*

I just purchased this game and Vereda and can't use either with my trackpad on my Mac. Waste of money!
