TIMESCAPE: Altitude
Its a VERY hard escape the room game, probably the hardest ive played. Played for ~2hrs and i couldnt finish it… i was stuck most of the time, so not many puzzles solved or anything like that.
I think it has to do with some solutions where quite hard to make sense of.
Like, the very first puzzle, you start “chained” and have to find the code to your lock… the answer is right in front of you, but when i finally solved it, WHY would “THAT” be the combination??
There arent any clues to make me think those 2 things are related between them or even with my lock.

👍I Expect You To Fly?
I love that being trapped alone on a crashing plan adds a REAL REASON to want to escape!
Overall, you can expect a set of HIGHLY unique and “real world” based puzzles, where all the answers are there, but it’s still tricky. It’s not as “big studio polished” as the more well know and comical based “spy’s who die” escape rooms are. So don’t go in expecting that.
😃 Best way to play is…
It’s super fun to play while in our Voice Chat, so other’s can taunt/help/sabotage you in a playful way. A few in our Steam Group (link below) have been doing that and loving it. Brings a whole new level to the fun.

Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma
This is, without any doubt whatsoever, the dumbest story I have ever experienced in my entire life.
And I’m not even disappointed. I’m actually impressed by the amount of effort that was spent on writing every single detail of this ginormous pile of garbadge. Congratulations to everyone involved.
The disjointed narrative structure makes it impossible to care about anything. Characters will constantly reference things you haven’t seen yet or specifically chose not to do. Imagine if someone told you to direct a movie. But you’ve never read the script before until they hand it to you one page at a time and completely out of order. There’s basically no coherent story up until maybe the last 25% of the game. At which point it all comes together on the premise that nothing mattered anyways, that there was never supposed to be any story in the first place. The arbitrary decision points and branches just boil down to a check list. Sometimes it even feels like you’re playing a 90s Sierra game: “Do you want to go left or right?”. “Left”. “An anvil drops on your head! Game over”.

game looks awful, is poorly structured with weird flag triggers that’re hard to find and the story is barely passable imo.
get it only on a sale and if you REALLY want to play it yourself instead of just looking up the story beats online.

AI: The Somnium Files
What makes a game good? Is it the story? The characters? Or perhaps, the graphics?
You see, to me, it’s the combination of the writing, the characters, the soundtracks, and a strong voice acting performance. AI: The Somnium Files fills all the criteria, hence, making this a good game. Actually? Scratch that, it’s better than “good”, it’s a wonderful game and i don’t have to be a detective like, say, the protagonist of AI, Kaname Date to figure that much. But you might wonder, what is AI: The Somnium Files?

An AI for an Eye
It’s been a while since I was this hooked on a game and this one hooked me right from the start and didn’t let go. I was supposed to just test it to see if it works on my potato laptop, but I couldn’t put it down. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me experience a whiplash of emotions.
AI: The Somnium Files is a game by Uchikoshi Kotaro, the creator of the famous Zero Escape trilogy, and developed by Spike Chunsoft so you should expect high production values. It’s an adventure/visual novel hybrid similar to Zero Escape, but this time the two segments are completely intertwined every step of the way. It gave me that same feeling of a larger looming mystery you gradually reveal in a non-linear way the previous trilogy had. It’s also quite different at the same time.
