Too many ads. *2026-01-19, version 1.5.6* I spent almost as much time watching ads as playing. The game is fine, but 3 ads in 5 minutes, sometimes after only one level, is beyond reasonable. ### 2/5 — It was a little too obscure 😒 *2025-07-30, version 1.5.6* I got to level 35 and I couldn’t take it anymore. Obscure riddles about noise and wind chimes, plus a literal dart board with a f in the middle representing “Fame” didn’t tickle my puzzle pickle. I ended up trying to google the answers rather than watching 60 second ads. Some of the puzzles were quite clever, but not enough of them. If you reason like a 48 year old Cantonese man then I can recommend this for you. ### 4/5 — Hard *2023-10-23, version 1.5.6* This game is hard I’m on level 34, I can’t figure it out! ### 4/5 — Next levels *2023-08-27, version 1.5.6* So I love the game but I beat the game and there are no levels remaining for me to do more of the escape room fun. ### 1/5 — Just like the rest *2023-07-28, version 1.5.6* Nope! Will not be forced to watch ads and commercials! Good bye ### 3/5 — Illogical sometimes *2023-06-29, version 1.5.6* Whilst I enjoy the simplicity of the design of the levels, often easy, sometimes headslapping so once you figure them out. Clever word play and some Challenging. However some times having resorted to good old google for answers I am still baffled at how they got the answer they want from you. Some totally illogical stuff occasionally. Possible it’s a cultural thing I’m from the uk and not sure where this was developed but I have been left scratching my head or jaw on the floor shocked at some of these answers! Wouldn’t mind if they told you how they got each answer but only some explain themselves! I demand to know how you got these answers! X ### 3/5 — Meh *2023-06-28, version 1.5.6* Some of the puzzles are just bad and one of the ads I get commonly is a lady sitting on the toilet. It’s very inappropriate to me. ### 1/5 — indecent and offensive *2023-06-19, version 1.5.6* A stupid game ### 1/5 — Boring *2023-04-02, version 1.5.6* Game is terrible. Boring and not fun ### 1/5 — Escape room *2023-03-08, version 1.5.6* Absolutely CRAP. Most of the clues are obscure and have no relevance WHATSOEVER. Come on guys, we’re human beings. Make the clues at least relevant to the items you show. Avoid this game it’ll have you pulling your hair out as most of the clues aren’t really clues at all. All they want you to do is waste you time watching crappy videos. Go on YouTube and see the answers and see just how ridiculous the answers really are and most have no relevance WHATSOEVER. ### 3/5 — It’s just a word game *2023-02-22, version 1.5.6* With an escape room you have to look around the room for clues, it’s more complex than just a word game. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste time *2023-02-12, version 1.5.6* Hi my names misha I don’t like the difficulty of the game it’s to hard for me I had to search up the answers and so did a bunch of others the clues aren’t very good. ### 1/5 — Dumb riddle game *2023-01-17, version 1.5.6* Dumb riddle game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Boring *2025-04-13, version 1.5.6* This game is okay, but not very fun and too hard. Not at all enjoyable. I would rather it be like other escape games. Sorry. 🥺 ### 1/5 — Too many adverts *2025-02-04, version 1.5.6* How are people giving this 5 stars. Every other level you have to watch a 60 second advert. It’s a joke. You can complete a couple of levels then watch more adverts. I found myself spending more time watching adverts than playing the game. Absolute joke. I get why games have adverts but this is just ridiculous.. ### 1/5 — Misogyny puzzle game *2024-12-28, version 1.5.6* I didn’t even make it to 5th question and 2 of the questions already threw me off. 1st is what can turn girls to women? Answer is”AGE” so boys no need age to grow up and become men? 2nd one is what animal have biggest breasts? Answer is “ZeBra” explanation is Z is biggest bra size for women so Ze + bra is the answer? And don’t skip the part you call women “animal” ### 1/5 — Not an escape room *2024-11-23, version 1.5.6* Just a lot of cretinous, spurious riddles ### 1/5 — Inappropriate *2024-07-29, version 1.5.6* Inappropriate ### 1/5 — Not escape room game but word-puzzles *2024-06-02, version 1.5.6* This is not an escape room game. Deleting. ### 1/5 — Not your usual escape room *2024-03-29, version 1.5.6* Simply just guessing what word is associated with a picture or answering a riddle then entering that word as a password. Boring, to say the least. ### 1/5 — What? *2023-11-04, version 1.5.6* So, I spent most of this game going “huh?” or “what?” Really obscure references, I mean, on one level, the explanation at the end was “UNHYB can build S”. WHAT? ### 1/5 — Sexist, immature garbage *2023-11-01, version 1.5.6* This “game” seems like it was written by prepubescent boys for prepubescent boys, complete with idiotic “clues” focused on female anatomy. Very stupid. I deleted this game after one minute. ### 1/5 — Waiting and waiting *2023-09-22, version 1.5.6* Just to many ads. So boring. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Escape room:mystery word *2026-05-31, version 1.5.6* I’m up to leave 308 and I admit I have used many hints..my issue is that when the “WATCH” button is green I touch it to watch a video to get credits…there have been numerous times that sometimes there are three and there are no credits…doesn’t seem fair or right!!!! Level 316 just wasted a number of credits on letters that I already have… I have had the first four letters and they’re displayed!!!!! There’s a glitch in the letter placing the last letter is already in its position so it’s screwing around with the credits…!!!!!just read through my review and gotta say I did make it “ALL THE WAY” to level 355 where there’s a “door” with a “coming soon”…I would still definitely recommend this game even with the small issues…🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂 ### 5/5 — Escape room:mystery word *2026-05-29, version 1.5.6* I’m up to leave 308 and I admit I have used many hints..my issue is that when the “WATCH” button is green I touch it to watch a video to get credits…there have been numerous times that sometimes there are three and there are no credits…doesn’t seem fair or right!!!! Level 316 just wasted a number of credits on letters that I already have… I have had the first four letters and they’re displayed!!!!! There’s a glitch in the letter placing the last letter is already in its position so it’s screwing around with the credits…!!!!! ### 5/5 — w *2025-04-14, version 1.5.6* w game chat very good and fun to play if you have nothin to do . ### 5/5 — Great memories *2023-07-17, version 1.5.6* Me and my grandma would play this whenever we came over, great memories and a great game. ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2023-07-08, version 1.5.6* Fun game to test your brain! ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-05-21, version 1.5.6* I absolutely love this game. The puzzles are a little cryptic sometimes, and I tend to find if I sleep on them the answers just come to me. So satisfying when they do! I’ve done all 355 levels and really hoping the developers bring out more, but it’s been 2years since the last updates so I guess it’s not looking good. Will keep hoping! ### 5/5 — Hard but still fun! *2023-05-18, version 1.5.6* So I play EscapeRoom alot on my phone, and it’s pretty hard but like I had to search up “What has a tounge but doesn’t have a mouth and what can’t walk but moves around” I had to search up the answer and I seem kinda dumb because I forgot that there was an “S and a E” and it said shoe But when I go to the website it said something else and Its still fun tbh ### 5/5 — Wow *2023-01-16, version 1.5.6* Amazing ### 5/5 — Helping people who are stuck on level 21 *2022-12-31, version 1.5.6* i Think this game is really good I just think that a lot of people get stuck on level 21 because it’s so hard so the answer to level 21 is answer idk why it is that but the creator if you are reading this please make the answer a little bit easier ### 5/5 — Good for you *2022-11-08, version 1.5.6* Since it’s a mind game I like it. Not to many adds and I like how there are hints to help you. I’ve deleted this game though bc I needed more levels. And no I’m not a nerd 😑 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
