Reviews for "Escape: The Room"
Oooo that was nice
That was a nice game, as you said before a little buggy. Don't mind the people calling you retarded because they couldn't finish it. I admit it was hard to finish or find all of the things so I resorted to the walkthrough in an earlier review. But it was nice, it could be improved (making the false lids more obvious, having a decent off switch on the radio, etc..)
cool
nice, it was kinda hard to figure out what the symbols in the bottom of the trash and the whole mirror thing (even though that was the same thing, i didn't think it was) but it was nice
GOOD
i only had one problem and that was turning off the radio other than that this is an extremely easy game i figured it all out in about five minites nice graphics and music and the people who complain are probobly just idiots because im only about 16 and it was really easy!! afew bugs but not to bad nice job!!!
oh where oh where are the numbers
Well first off may i say that the graphics were above par, excellent work
now the criticizm, while i generally enjoy puzzlers this game really lacked any incentives to complete with a lack of storyline which was unfortunate (save for the few lines of humor at the start)
Overall though i found certain gimmicks employed in the game left the player feeling fairly 'cheated'
====SPOILER====
1 while the false bottom is certainly a novel idea as it is near impossible to see this is aggrevating rather than impressive.
2 making the player resort to opening notepad/worpad/whatever to solve a puzzle is out of place here and damages the limited enviornment of the game, maily it breaks the suspended disbelief.
3 most annoyingly having to switch off the radio,(espicially when the off button isnt clearly marcked) to solve a puzzle is simply stupid, there is no 'in game' reason why this is nessissary and I felt nothing but irratation in learning that this was all that impeded me.
4 overall the game was too short, the puzzles had no unifying theme ,were poorly constructed, completly unjustifyed and the game suffered from lack of atmosphere.
