Played this with my husband just for fun, wanted a semi-quick escape the room experience before bed. It definitely challenged us to think, which I really enjoyed - made solving puzzles more satisfying, but we were left confused as there were several elements & puzzles in the game that had no purpose other than to just to mislead / misdirect the player (Unless we seriously missed some stuff!) I don't mind a little pointless document here or there but these seemed like full on puzzles we worked hard to solve and... could do nothing with. Anyway, we beat it on the first try with 9 seconds to go.
Difficulty level (including the red herrings that irritated the hell out of us): 6
Frustration level maximum: 9
Still, would like to see what the developer does next! Less red herrings please!
I accidentally dropped the key that I got from one of the desk drawers in front of the lock box and it wouldn't let me pick it back up and had to restart... also I'm not a big fan of the function where you have to have the hand icon pop up to use an item even though you have a click and drag feature for using the item? Just leads to constantly dropping it.
Thank you for the feedback and for playing the game! This was an entirely new mechanic I wanted to experiment on and will keep a note of improving it on future games we make!
This was a really challenging but fun game, we enjoyed it very much. On a scale of 1 to 10 difficulty rating we would rate it atleast an 8. The clues were sometimes a little confusing but it was not impossible to finish the game.
Thank you for the feedback and video! I tried to make it as close as possible to a real escape room game to give a similar feel, so I'm so glad you were able to finish the game!
