This one is okay, but it could be better. I tried using the hint button for one of the puzzles that I was stuck on. I had made it to page two out of 8 pages. I watched several ads in order to gain hints. But, once I earned coins, it starts you back at page 1 even though that page was already revealed to you before. It should pick up where you left off. For example, if I have already revealed page one and two of the hints, then it should reveal page three once I watch the ads. Instead, it goes all the way back to page 1. It is very difficult to get through the hint pages. I am so glad I did not pay for hints. I finally figured out the puzzle without the hint. The hint is a waste of time because it will take forever to keep starting back at page one. But overall it is a decent game to kill time. ### 4/5 — It's ok..... *2020-05-21, version 1.0* 𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭....𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐨 𝐈 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭.

I finished it in like 10 minutes... the hints were good except they didn’t help with what I needed help with. I had already completed the steps that the hint gave me which was a waste of 5 stars. It’s probably better for children or if ur looking for something to do while waiting for something. I’ve played better ones and worse ones. Even so I will likely not recommended this game to ANYONE ### 3/5 — Good but has problems *2020-01-02, version 1.0* Unable to finish the game because it wouldn’t let me pick up clues since they were too close to the coin button, no matter how hard I tried and it won’t let you get passed anything without looking at the clue first. :( ### 4/5 — Time goes by *2019-10-02, version 1.0* This game is a very good stress relief. When ever I play this game it always puts me in a better mood. The only problem I’d that you have to get coins to find clues and also when you exit the game all the progress of that escape room. ### 3/5 — Enjoyable for free *2019-08-23, version 1.0* The controls were a little tough- I started with the scrambled flower picture and accidentally returned to the main menu and had to start from scratch. So just that the UX is not intuitive but overall thank you for the enjoyable experience ### 3/5 — It’s okay... *2019-07-07, version 1.0* This is a great app but I wish there was more ways to get clues. Also, if I leave the app and come back my progress does not save! This bothers me so much because I have to do all the work all over again. Overall it’s pretty fun, I just want those two things to be changed. ### 4/5 — Good game *2019-06-23, version 1.0* It's fun but not enough levels. I only got two without buying more and that's not cool. At least give five, enough to make me want to storms the money to keep playing. ### 4/5 — Needs save capability *2019-06-16, version 1.0* The ads are annoying but I’m like ok what’s a dollar? Fine. But at least add more levels if you pay to remove ads (premium version). But most of all, this NEEDS a save feature. It’s annoying that I have to devote “x” amount of time to play this game since I can’t stop without having to completely start over later. ### 4/5 — Not hard *2019-05-26, version 1.0* Easy enough to complete quickly. Looking for more of a challenge, but still enjoy the game. I dropped my rating from 5 to 4 because the clown clocks were pointless. Every clue should connect to another. ### 5/5 — Nice game! *2019-04-27, version 1.0* First I have a bad feeling but now when I past the I felt happy one thing I do not like is the ads but I like the game 5 STARS!!! ### 5/5 — Okay *2019-03-09, version 1.0* This game is play is just going through the motions to get done. Although you have to think to play, this game doesn't make you want to play or grab you. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2019-03-03, version 1.0* Well for starts it was a fun time passing game, but there was a few problems. In the one puzzle box there was a small red piece at the top that was next to the watch video for 2 gold coins or something like that. Also it was so small that it was hard to get into its box and if you mess up your going to have a hard time. Not only was the free coin thing next to that it was next to the puzzle picture and other stuff. I think they should just move it in a different corner and the rest of the stuff in a settings box. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Glitch in level 1 *2020-04-17, version 1.0* Paid for Ad free but can’t get last the first room because of a glitch. Solved every step but the puzzle in the box has one last piece that won’t move into place: the small red triangle. I watched the complete tutorial to see if I was missing a step or if it’s a glitch. It’s a glitch. Fix it please? Thank you. ### 1/5 — This game could be better🙂 *2020-03-17, version 1.0* I was playing this games and my parents said I have to got eat so I swiped out of everything and I went to go back to my progress I had made and it was all gone and if I wanted to do the next level I had to pay for it. And if you want a hint to help you you have to watch three long videos so If I were you I would not get this app in fact I’m deleting this app I have one more thing if you do wait to get a hint it is all in wrong order I do not recommend this app at ALL!!!! ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2019-06-24, version 1.0* Had to pay for the clues because one of the boxes was open no matter what combination we did. Once we read the clues we had it right the first time, then when we restarted it we found the clue box had the right combination but wouldn’t let us have the tile to proceed. Not worth it ### 1/5 — Waste of hint “coins” *2018-12-05, version 1.0* The way the hints work is stupid on some Of the levels. I clicked on the hint and it opened a clue book but to scroll through the book each page requires coins. Ok so I was at the end of the level and needed to scroll to page 8. I didn’t know each time you open the book it starts back at the beginning so I scrolled through the first time and didn’t have enough coins so I had to go watch like 3 ads only to find out I had to start all the way back at the beginning. Bunch of crap. If I “paid” for my hint book pages I should NOT have to repay to see the pages I already paid for. So dumb ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2018-09-11, version 1.0* I love these games, but this one in particular is super annoying. Some of the hints don´t open even if you have the correct clue in (which makes you think you have the wrong clue)... you have to re enter the clue a couple times for it to open, there´s a ton of ads, and it crashes all the time. I quit on level 2 because (on the iPad at least) you can´t even click on one of the pieces because the button to ¨buy hints¨ is in the way. 👎 ### 1/5 — Horrible! *2017-08-28, version 1.0* This is by far the most awful escape game that I have played. Many of the puzzle pieces wouldn't work but the most annoying aspect was the stupid pop up wanting a review in order to receive gold coins that can be used for hints. This pop up occurred every few seconds. Absolutely horrible! ### 1/5 — Give hints *2017-06-29, version 1.0* Horrible game. Developers need to take ideas from the better escape games. This one is too all over the place and a lot of the puzzles don't make sense or connect to each other well. There were several glitches, as some of the pieces wouldn't work the way they were supposed to. I shouldn't have to buy hints or watch a bunch of ads just to get coins to get free hints. ### 2/5 — Playing *2021-06-30, version 1.0* I like the game but I had a hard time with playing the game and you leave the game and come back you have to start all over again. ### 2/5 — Problems *2019-05-24, version 1.0* On one of the levels you can’t get one of the props out of the box because of the watch ads for coins thing in the top left corner. It’s gotten in the way many times and I also didn’t like how you have to pay for hints in order so if I had already figured out something I would need to pay for those hints until I got to the one I needed ### 2/5 — Way too many ads *2018-12-22, version 1.0* I think I would like this game. I always like to get through one level before buying to make sure it is challenging enough. But on this game I couldn’t get through all of the ads. They pop up about every 15 taps of the screen. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Really good !!! *2022-09-07, version 1.0* I really liked this one !!! You had to figure out this puzzle to figure out that puzzle to get this piece and on and on ! And ( at least in the first puzzle ) there were four different rooms so you have to go back and forth and back. It was really confusing at first, but when I started to figure out - what you have to figure out - I loved it !! Also it wasn’t giving you a clue or hint what to press when you started, like you are stupid and don’t know what to press or how to open a door. For me this one was my favorite !! Thanx. ### 5/5 — Nice but needs work *2020-06-03, version 1.0* This is amazing! But it’s confusing sometimes the app would glitch on me like whenever I found something I took it where it needed to go and it was in the same spot but I finally finish it amazing game! ### 5/5 — 5-star for logic *2020-05-19, version 1.0* I like that that everything is logic. Some games give hard time to people for the sake of that. This one is actually quite easy, but everything has a reason to happen. ### 5/5 — WOW *2020-03-19, version 1.0* I had such a blast playing this game that I played it 3 times in the past 5 minutes ### 5/5 — Pretty good *2020-02-06, version 1.0* I love all the episode I love how u can watch ads to earn coins to get hints I just love this game ### 5/5 — Exellent work *2019-10-31, version 1.0* First I just want to say that I love escape the room games so that’s already a five star for me and plus y’all already excelled the hard work on the hints so that’s another five star for me:) ### 5/5 — Clachance61 *2019-08-19, version 1.0* Very nice game. It was very entertaining and once you find a clue that item no longer opens which allows the game to progress nicely. Great clues and very colorful scenes adds interest. It was perfect for my first challenge. ### 5/5 — Great challenge for 7 yr old *2019-06-07, version 1.0* He enjoyed the game but the ads were annoying. ### 5/5 — Escape Challenge room:16 *2019-05-26, version 1.0* This game is really fun, but is only a lite if u consider the availability of hints. It gives u one free hint and you have to purchase a 0.99 pack for the rest. However, the game and puzzles that it provides are unique and creative. Keep a keen eye and you’ll be just fine while trying to escape. ### 5/5 — Good game *2019-04-27, version 1.0* I like it it gives me something to do when I am bored you should get this game if you like escape room games . --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
