### 3/5 — Escape fever

*2025-07-12, version 1.0*

Stage 3 hit watch walkthrough and nothing happens..BYE…

### 3/5 — Great but glitch on level 7

*2023-03-27, version 1.0*

I was so enjoying this game but once I completed level 7 I was unable to move onto room 8 even though I had found the key to open the door so the game stopped there for me and had to remove the app. Disappointing

### 4/5 — Escape fever

*2022-11-21, version 1.0*

I’m on level 6, it’s been a little tough so far but not impossible. Makes you think and I like that. Thanks!

### 2/5 — Makes no sense

*2022-01-27, version 1.0*

Solving some of these puzzles makes absolutely no sense. And would be impossible to figure out

### 3/5 — Awesome

*2021-07-18, version 1.0*

So great and all, but you have to purchase other levels and I can not without permission and all the levels should be free

### 3/5 — Good but app needs work...

*2021-04-14, version 1.0*

Very challenging but doesn’t keep track of rooms completed. If busy and need to go back you must click on each room to remember where the heck left off. It should mark rooks escaped and which ones left to go.

### 4/5 — Good

*2020-10-31, version 1.0*

Worth a try

### 3/5 — To easy

*2020-10-17, version 1.0*

I’m 12 and I thought that all 11 levels were to easy and also you need to add more levels because I’m not paying $2.99 for 3 extra levels that are to Easy

### 4/5 — Good game to pass the time

*2020-08-25, version 1.0*

This game is great to pass time with.

### 5/5 — Great little game

*2020-05-11, version 1.0*

Certainly helps pass the time, definitely one of the better escape room games I’ve played 👍🏻

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2020-05-09, version 1.0*

This is an easier version of the escape rooms but the rooms are interesting and it gives you a sense of accomplishment instead of frustration.

### 5/5 — Eddy

*2020-04-09, version 1.0*

Love it!

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-03-13, version 1.0*

Good

### 4/5 — Challenging

*2020-02-20, version 1.0*

Challenging at its best thoroughly enjoying this so far!

### 5/5 — Good game

*2020-01-18, version 1.0*

The game is really nice and fun and helps you to get the answers when you need help by making you look at the answers and you don’t need to like have points or anything that games have to get help so you should get this game it is also very mind growing

### 1/5 — Escape fever

*2025-12-15, version 1.0*

Stage 3 hit watch walkthrough and nothing happens..BYE…made it past level 3..in level 4 need a walkthrough and like level 3 nothing happens!!..I found the walkthrough button even that doesn’t work..so it’s BYE again!!!

### 1/5 — Please please Update!!

*2021-05-09, version 1.0*

I CAN’T PASS THE THIRD LEVEL!

ME FRUSTRATED WITH THIS GAME

### 1/5 — After 11 levels you have to buy the rest

*2020-06-24, version 1.0*

Read the title!!

### 1/5 — You must be kidding

*2020-04-04, version 1.0*

Too Darn Difficult!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Angry

*2020-02-28, version 1.0*

I would have rated this game much higher but I was not able to get the whole game when I paid for it. I contacted Apple and they advised me to contact the developer. The developer hasn’t bothered to contact me back so now I guess I’ll get my money back from Apple. Won’t play anymore games by this developer.

### 1/5 — I usually ❤️ these, but I DELETED THIS ONE IMMEDIATELY!

*2019-04-03, version 1.0*

I've always loved these room to room to room puzzle-escape games, and grabbed this one the second I spotted it. Mobest Media, ironically, has been the developer of a lot of these type of games, so I expected that I would love everything about it.
ONE IMPORTANT FEATURE WAS A DEAL BREAKER FOR ME, AND THE GAME HAS BEEN DELETED FROM MY IPAD AFTER PLAYING JUST ONE LEVEL:
I can't turn the music off and still have the fun sound effects on.
   I love the sound effects when I play a game...the sound of picking up a found object, solving a small puzzle, clearing a room to go to the next level, etc. etc. etc.
   I RARELY, if ever enjoy the background music, but understand that apparently other gamers out there might like it.
   If I am FORCED to have either ALL audio (music+effects) or NO sound, then I'm immediately, and permanently, turned off of the game regardless of how fantastic the game appears to be. And I DELETE it.
How ridiculous that the programmers and developers assume that I would enjoy the same, obscure, NON-catchy, and overall crappy music that they apparently find appealing! I seriously can't be the only one out here that feels this way.
I'm not a programmer with CODE flying out of my fingertips, but I seriously don't think that separate on/off switches for music and sound takes rocket science.
Please, just spare us all from having to listen to your choice of music if we still want to have the game's sound effects.  I'm just one example of what your decision regarding forced music has achieved for your new game: the loss of at least one customer who most likely would have purchased any bonus levels that were offered for this game...
 GAMERS:  If you agrees with this, feel free to copy/paste all of this as YOUR review. Maybe they'll get the message.

### 1/5 — Takes you money and doesn’t give you the levels

*2018-08-14, version 1.0*

I did give this a 5 but purchased the bonus packs and didn’t get them what a scam

### 1/5 — Nope

*2018-06-23, version 1.0*

Had good reviews, but too small to see anything and the screen won’t expand, even when you rotate your phone.  Was not able to play!  Boo!

### 1/5 — Screen too small

*2018-04-01, version 1.0*

Can’t expand or see anything

### 1/5 — Paid for bonus levels - locked out and they want more money!

*2017-04-11*

The game was great - up until I wanted to play the full game. I paid $2.99 to purchase the All Levels full game, but instead of getting access to the bonus levels, I'm still locked out and when I try to access the levels, they want to charge my card another $2.99! So much for supporting your game developers. Beware - this company is disreputable and will take your money and give you nothing. Still waiting to hear from Apple on this one.

### 5/5 — Nice game

*2026-05-03, version 1.0*

Maybe you should make all the levels unlockable

### 5/5 — Enjoyed playing

*2023-08-21, version 1.0*

I enjoy playing escape room games, but not all of them are as good as this one.

### 5/5 — FUN

*2022-05-31, version 1.0*

Not to hard, not to simple; fun and relaxing!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2021-10-08, version 1.0*

Perfect level of difficulty.  If you want to spend a little time, no clues needed.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2021-03-09, version 1.0*

I love these kind of escape room games. This game is one of the few free escape room games which is actually great. It provides plenty of levels with a moderate difficulty level. Everything makes sense and is not something you would look at the explanation video and think “that’s dumb”, you’ll probably just be kicking yourself for not figuring it out. Many other games that are free only provide you with about 6-8 levels and then make you pay for the rest *cough cough.. you must escape* . So overall great game.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2020-10-11, version 1.0*

Perfectly relaxing game to tax your brain and memory.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2020-10-04, version 1.0*

This is a great game!!!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2020-08-18, version 1.0*

Fun

### 5/5 — It’s ok 👌

*2020-08-04, version 1.0*

Ya makes time pass

### 5/5 — Fun
