Rooms Unseen is a collection of more than 60 escape rooms with over 35 hours of puzzles. Each one is a small interconnected world: several illustrated chambers, locked doors between them, hidden objects, ciphers, and machinery you have to figure out. Swipe to look around. Tap to look closer. Pick up what you find. Use it. Solve the Puzzles. Escape the room. HOW IT PLAYS You enter a room and find yourself in its first chamber. Swipe to pan across the illustrated scene. Tap anything that catches your attention — a desk, a painting, a control panel — to zoom in for a closer look or open a puzzle. Pick up the items you find and carry them with you. Drag the right item onto the right place to unlock a mechanism. Solve a puzzle and a door opens. Step through into the next chamber. Keep going until you escape. WHAT'S INSIDE • More than 60 original escape rooms across wildly different worlds — an Egyptian tomb, a cyberpunk hacker den, a frozen Victorian observatory, an Art Nouveau apothecary, a pirate hideout carved into a tropical cliff, and many more — from gentle first rooms to hard puzzle-box challenges. • A wide variety of puzzle types — sliders, wire connections, rotary dials, button grids, concentric rings, cryptexes, pipes, mechanical assemblies, text codes, inventory items, tile slides, sorters, and more. • Inventory-driven exploration. The right item from your bag, dragged onto the right place, clicks into the world like it always belonged there. • A dedicated visual style for every room, with cohesive palettes and lighting tuned to the story you've walked into. • Quiet narrative threaded throughout. Each room opens with a literary hook and reveals more about itself as you make progress. • Custom music and sound design for each setting, with tactile haptic feedback on every solve. PASSPORT FOR TRAVELERS Track your journey through the Passport. Rank up from Visitor to Wanderer, Journeyman, Veteran, Loremaster, and more as you escape more rooms. Build a weekly streak by escaping at least one room a week. Earn puzzle-mastery marks for every puzzle type you solve without using a hint. Personal best times save alongside each room you've completed. HINTS WHEN YOU NEED THEM Stuck on a puzzle? Open the hint panel. Pathfinder pans you to the next thing worth investigating, without giving the answer away. Walkthrough overlays the exact step-by-step solution onto the puzzle in front of you. Solve a puzzle without using a hint and you earn a mastery stamp for that puzzle type. Hints are there when you want them and out of the way when you don't.
