One case. Different clues. 22:02 [5/1944] CODE K ESCAPE is an asymmetric escape-room game designed to be solved over a call. The Host opens a case and sends each player a different invite link. Friends join instantly through the browser Companion—no app installation or account required. Describe the evidence only you can see, connect the missing pieces, and escape together. NINE CASES ACROSS THREE EPISODES Episode 1: First Files - Unit 301 - Night Shift - Last Train Episode 2: Second Files - The Last Water - The Seat Still Logged In - The Last Duet Episode 3: Third Files - The Unfinished Screening - The Wave in the Empty Tank - The Star Before Dawn TRY IT SOLO Learn the rules by playing alone with every clue available. When you are ready, invite friends and split the evidence across two to four players. ESCAPE TOGETHER Each role receives different information. Some puzzles cannot be solved without explaining what you see and listening carefully to your teammates. LIVE SHARED PROGRESS Solved steps, the timer, hints, and wrong answers synchronize during cooperative play. Everyone works through the same case and reaches the result together. RANK UP Solve all three distinct cases in an episode to raise your investigator rank and unlock the next set of files. REWARDED HINTS If you get stuck, use the interphone to request a hint. A hint is revealed only after a rewarded ad is watched to completion. There are no banner or interstitial ads. Each case takes approximately 20–38 minutes. Core solo gameplay can continue without an internet connection. Co-op sessions, cloud progress, and rewarded hints require an internet connection.
