### 4/5 — Pretty great!

*2026-08-26, version 1.7.3*

I love the game so much! There is one puzzle, though it really makes me upset because it doesn’t really make sense. I got stuck once for days on a puzzle where I thought you had to count the sides and the answer is you did but they counted curved edges as a side. That’s not really a side. It’s a curve.

### 4/5 — So far…so good

*2026-05-12, version 1.7.3*

It gets challenging as you progress. I look forward to the next 7 levels. When does “coming soon” actually happen??

### 3/5 — Kind of hard

*2026-03-18, version 1.7.3*

On level 3 and a hint spot wood be nice

### 4/5 — Waiting

*2026-02-26, version 1.7.3*

I love this game!  I have been looking forward to the new challenges.

### 4/5 — Escape Challenge

*2026-02-07, version 1.7.3*

Honestly, it’s a great app. Loads of fun with my kids trying to figure it out. Although there is only eleven levels it has helped my kids learn how to decode things.

### 3/5 — Great until…

*2025-12-18, version 1.7.3*

I was enjoying this game until getting stumped on a coded box (DD x C). It’s a shame there aren’t any hints when you’re stuck. Or offering a “skip room” if stuck.

### 5/5 — 🥳🥳🥳

*2025-11-07, version 1.7.3*

I know more levels are coming but, this game needs more! It is amazing and it feels as if I’m in an escape room! People looking to get it, read this and get the game immediately. This is not one of those annoying ads. This game is so addictive and fun!

### 5/5 — Nostalgia

*2025-10-27, version 1.7.3*

This game gives me so much nostalgia back in the 2010s glad the developer added another level. I hope more levels get added. It’s a simple game that still feels entertaining.

### 5/5 — It makes me smarter. I like this game.

*2025-10-25, version 1.7.3*

The graphics look really bad, but this game is about solving puzzles which I like to do so five stars

### 5/5 — This game is beautiful

*2025-10-22, version 1.7.3*

I’ve played it since I was a young lad and this game is so fun I hope they continue to update it forever because it’s so freakin good

### 5/5 — Dhus

### 5/5 — You’re on your own. No clues.

*2025-09-08, version 1.7.3*

I actually had to use my brain. Challenging and rewarding.

### 4/5 — fun, entertaining, and simple

*2025-08-16, version 1.7.3*

A few of the levels had me stuck (mostly the math ones), but overall it’s a very time-passing, enticing, and enjoyable game. There’s only eleven levels as of now. I can’t wait for the next ones!

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2025-08-11, version 1.7.3*

I enjoyed this game....just the right amount of difficulty to challenge the brain cells

### 5/5 — fun

*2025-08-04, version 1.7.3*

very fun game

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-07-30, version 1.7.3*

Not too difficult great for my 8 year old son

### 5/5 — So fun

*2025-07-11, version 1.7.3*

This game is the most fun mobile game I’ve ever played

### 4/5 — Good game, very short

*2025-07-08, version 1.7.3*

This is a good escape game. The challenges are fun while not being too difficult and they actually make sense, which is a problem that i have with a lot of escape games. I completed the game in one as there are only 11 levels. Also, there is a key in the last level that you do not use at all? Other than that the game is great!

### 4/5 — FUN

*2025-06-28, version 1.7.3*

WELL THAT WAS BIT OF FUN, NOT TO DIFFICULT, BUT FUN

### 1/5 — Escape challenge

*2026-02-05, version 1.7.3*

Boring, dated, poor graphics, very easy.

### 1/5 — Boring

*2019-05-21, version 1.4*

I downloaded it and it was so boring you don't even now what to do!      Don't get it!👎👎👎😢

### 1/5 — Are you kidding me?!?! Don't waste your time on it😡

*2016-07-05, version 1.4*

I was playing on level 3 and had just started like 10 minutes ago and then an ad popped up and covered my inventory so I could not get anything from my inventory and made it so I could not continue the game and had to delete it and I was really looking forward to playing this game but unfortunately I can't give it a good rating anymore, I would just like them to put the ad not in my way of playing the game and I would not recommend this game to anyone until they fix it because I don't want the games the ads are advertising. So overall I bet it's a good game but I could not try it and I wouldn't waste your time on downloading this app.😕

### 2/5 — T hi s game

*2024-01-19, version 1.7.3*

When I stated playing this game to the second round of it I got to the last part of the cabinet I was putting in the code, but it would not let me put in the cook correctly. I was trying everything to do I even watch a video on the game and I exactly like the game so I don’t even know what this game is anymore and I’ve been deleting it so many times so you should save your time

### 2/5 — Not great

*2023-10-22, version 1.7.3*

The graphics are nice but that’s about the only thing I liked. The puzzles are too easy, not a lot of levels and overall not fun.

### 2/5 — Way to easy!!!

*2023-05-31, version 1.7.3*

No challenge

### 2/5 — Great

*2018-08-16, version 1.4*

Good

### 2/5 — Brain game

*2017-12-04, version 1.4*

Super game keeps all brains busy

### 2/5 — Too easy

*2017-10-19, version 1.4*

Not much of a challenge. I recommend the Room series instead as they are much more engrossing, difficult, and Satisfying.

### 2/5 — Needs TLC

*2016-12-23, version 1.4*

This was a really awesome game with excellent levels that really make you think. However, there are only about 9 levels of game play and then the game is over. It's really sad because the game has not been updated in any way since 2013. Someone spent a lot of time and energy to make this a great game and they just gave up on it for some reason. It's really not worth the time and space it takes to download because I don't believe it will be updated any time in the near future and therefore will be no new levels to advance with. Good luck finding a better escape game than this one, that doesn't cost you an arm and a leg or slam you with ads.
