Escape Simulator
Great and fun co-op game. the puzzle difficulty is just right. the interactivity with the environment is good (you can pickup some objects, throw them, inspect them together with co-op friends, but some object can only be drag around). Looking forward for the new level update from the developer and high quality workshop level from the community. I hope the developer would expand the capability of the level editor to facilitate that.
Update :
Ok, so the additional 58 hours since the first review was mostly (80%-90%) consisted of me trying to play around with the editor and eventually created a level in the workshop which you can find here :

Escape Simulator is one of the few escape room games that can be played with one or more friends, in online co-op mode. In fact, while the game can be experienced in its entirety in solo mode as well, it was clearly designed with the multiplayer feature in mind.
Escape Simulator is structured in very small one-room levels that are all available to play from the beginning (there are no requirements to unlock them) and which are grouped according to their theme. At the moment of the release, the game features 16 levels in total (a tutorial, and 5 levels each, belonging to an Egypt / space / Victorian mansion theme) with more to come in the near future (5 more levels have been announced as a free port-release path). Aside from this, players can create their own rooms and share them with the community, since the game also has a Steam-integrated workshop.

First Class Escape: The Train of Thought
I’d really like to recommend this, but that Chapter 4… it sapped the fun :( and made it almost impossible to finish the game. Great setting and ideas up to then, if sometimes let down by the execution. The co-op hosting was seamless, controls were fine, and how nice to find notes not littered with errors. I loved working out the guests, but searching a bookcase three times for that one you can interact with? Dull and frustrating. Collectables are a fun addition… sometimes they were more clever and satisfying to retrieve than solving the puzzles!

Just finished playing this game in single player mode. Overall the game was enjoyable…graphics are nicely done and the puzzles for the most part were not overly difficult. I see some people giving the game negative reviews because some of the puzzles on Level 4 were challenging…if you take your time and examine how each machine works, you can eventually solve them without the need for a walkthrough.
Having said that, this is a new game and some refinement is needed. Having to drag things with the mouse (opening drawers, turning dials, etc.) is tedious and annoying….there has to be a better way to do this. There’s also apparently no way to customize the keyboard controls and no info that I could find on which keys do what. It’s also almost impossible to read some of the notes when you pick them up…the text is tiny and I could find no way to magnify it. Playing on a large screen TV sitting maybe 5 feet away, I had to get up and stand 6" away from the text to read it.

Escape from Kyoto House
Amazing game! Really had fun my friend whilst playing it! Includes a variety of puzzles ranging from the periodic table to country flags (not as hard as you think, I suck at chemistry and still managed it lol!) Overall incredible chill fun to play game for a considerable price. Check it out! I also played their other Escape game (Escape from Skull Dungeon) Which was as fun.
Really great game, wish they would release more puzzle games since they only have 2 which I both played and finished, haha!

Last Will
BEFORE READING - - -
I HAVE completed all rooms available at the current time, so if this is read after the 30th, some things I say here may not be true or may not apply.
This is a very well put together game, the story is intriguing, the graphics are beautiful, and there are very few glitches and bugs that I have run into so far.
First up, the puzzles. The puzzles in this game are very challenging, and are well put together, some of them, however, admittedly do need some work. *cough * the bunker *cough * They are not too easy to figure out, and not too challenging that they are unsolvable within the time frame. One thing I would say is a complaint of mine are the ranges of difficulties in the puzzles, as in, one room you enter may have a super difficult puzzle, while the next one is a breeze, so I would suggest somehow structuring them from easies to hardest when running through.

I do so totally recomend this game.
Although, keep in mind that this game is focused on a specific kind of player. If you like puzzle games, if you like thinking and figuring out how to solve enigmas, then you will love the game. If you expect an easy path through a story telling experience like The Stanley parable, or if you do expect it to be some kind of immersive horror game with some puzzles like Amnesia, then do not try it, because you may be dissapointed.
The very best with the game is the amount of different puzzles and riddles, as for now (7 played hours, I know it is little, but the game is not that long either), I have not experienced all of them, and the developers are still producing more complex rooms.

Played 11 hours so far and it’s worth the pick up at this sale price. Neat little indy game, caught me a few times and I’ve jumped with some of the demons and it’s worth playing with friends!

The Experiment: Escape Room
I spent most of my time being stuck in the main area, so I looked at the reviews to see if anyone else was stuck. I tried changing the graphics settings, and it showed my way forward. It’s difficult to recommend this if you never know if you’re simply not thinking of the puzzle, or if it simply isn’t working properly. I don’t want to spoil anything, but there were multiple cases in which this stopped me from moving forward.
The other issue involved the hints. They simply don’t work for me. It’ll say the next hint is in 0 seconds, but nothing else would happen.

Although the game was pretty much fun and challenging and i won’t recommend it.
Me and a friend just randomly skipped 2 total rooms, because i tried the door with the injections randomly and it worked, because i had 3 numbers and we were desperatly trying to get further.
It should not be possible to just skip rooms like that.
Also there was a bug, were we could press a button which we should not have been able to do, because we pretty much skipped some riddles.
Through a buggy keypad we figured out a code, which we would just find out like 2 or 3 rooms later, because it randomly showed us the 2 numbers missing.

Haunting Hour
Very beautiful and challenging escape game with nice graphics and a nice story. It still needs some finetuning and polishing and control impovements, but the devs are very responsive and working on it. It is fun to play with your friends and has a great atmosphere. We did not beat it on our first try, but we are looking forward to play it again and complete it.
Pros:
Multiplayer!! incl ingame voicechat
Challanging
Nice voiceacting and music
Very nice level design
Nice story
very affordable
Cons:
– Real player with 5.6 hrs in game
The art is beautiful, sound design is wonderful, the script is awesome, but the user experience is frustrating. Sooo much potential!
Problems I’ve gotten frustrated with:
*Held items still have collision. So trying to hold an item, like a book, can be more difficult than you expect it to be when you are near a wall, for example.
*The teleport function requires a twist of the arm, instead of the usual joystick-controlled teleport aim. Something that wouldn’t be too bad if it wasn’t for the next frustration…

Quest Rooms
a lot of people here cry in the comments that the game is difficult, someone even has a depression… Well go and play Sims:) it’s easy peasy over there:).
As for me I like hardcore games. Me and my friends had a lot of fun playing this game… thousands of deaths and attempts to pass the game till the end, but we made it!
can’t wait for the continuation and new modes.

I tried the single-player and multiplayer mode, the game seems to run smoothly, though I found some lagging in the multiplayer mode but it must have been because of my bad internet connection. I enjoyed playing the multiplayer mode with my friends, it was a lot of fun to find your-self and your friends dying many times in silly situations ☺.
First of all, I wanted to emphasize that the soundtrack is really awesome– a little bit dark and demonic and some sound effects are fun – for example the sound of death ☺. Check it out ☺

Escape From School
Highly Recommended! I enjoy puzzle games and this one caught my eye right away. I love how the puzzles, so far, are not extremely hard like most others in recent games I have played. This one definitely has potential! Yeah there are some bugs here and there, but that is to be expected at least within the first couple of weeks of a new game release. The creator contacted me through my Youtube video of my gameplay. I reported a few bugs that were found in game. Glad I could help :) Cannot wait to see the next level/s! Looking forward for more from this creator!
