Reviews for "Escape This House"

A decent "escape" game based upon old, &slightly new, horror movies. There's about a dozen or so funny bit and there is a learning curve on the slightly awkward controls, but I don't think they're that bad. I'd like to see a sequel and a LONGER game. It lost a point, b/c with a little thinking it was really easy.

Good job though, man.

This game turned out real good. I also notice the numerous references to popular scary movies here.

Bonus stuff, try entering 666 and 999 as safe combinations for some laughs.

Good short game.

Would've been better if this was submitted in October to match the theme. The graphics are perfect for Halloween. A good game, but too short on problem solving.

Escape scenarios need more spontaneous events randomly happening like getting killed or killing monsters with the axe or chainsaw. There should be more interaction with the environment like the computer and drawers that were "locked." The biggest problem is that it's not challenging enough and it wasn't random enough.

In other words, there should be more things to do besides examining stuff. How about combining items? or finding useless items that can be discarded to make it more difficult? or being able to break the windows and have zombies come out of the window?

didn't finished making the game until a few days before the upload to NG (and i wasn't going to keep the file on the HD for a year).
thanks for the review.

Great place

I got a little stuck on some parts, because it was hard to tell where I was supposed to go. I assumed it was just clicking, but I didn't read the instructions well. Some of the arrows pointing offscreen were a bit hard to find. I do like the music in this because it knows how to set up tension. It's interesting to see this really cool environment. There's a sort of easter egg on the window. If you click on it, you see a shark.

I guess it must be the land shark from "Saturday Night Live". What was also good was that there were so many colors in this. It was hard for me to get far here, as most point 'n click adventure games are for me. You just needed something more unique to make this better. Everything is still nicely detailed and good to look at.
