Casino Heist: Escape Room

[quote][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/9686972/]Follow "[b]First Person Exploration and Puzzle Games[/b]" for more games like this![/url][/quote] An escape room game that, like many others, uses the Escape Room Unity toolkit. If you've played any of the others (there are a ton), this game will feel very familiar. Overall, I'd say it's above average compared to other games made with the same toolkit. [i]Most[/i] of the puzzles are good. However, there were a few that were bad-to-terrible: • One of the first puzzles is a bunch of directed graphs where each node contains a number, with some of the numbers circled, and some text saying you need to find the "longest increasing subsequence". What you actually need to do is copy the circled numbers from one place to another. The graph, extra numbers, and directions are all red herrings. • The "safe+dice" puzzle in Act 2 has about a dozen reasonable solutions. The "correct" solution is the worst one of all of them. • The "compass" puzzle in Act 3 is just complete garbage. It's so vague and underspecified that I can't imagine anyone solving it without using a hint or looking up the solution. • One of the puzzles requires you to have a good understanding of how poker works. Fortunately I do, but anyone who doesn't will just be stuck with no in-game way to proceed. • The final puzzle is [i]really[/i] hard. It's not bad per-say, but I imagine most people will need to look up the solution. • The game has hints on [i]some[/i] puzzles, but not all of them. The hints are not always good. Still, despite these complaints, this remains one of the above-average escape room games on Steam.
