Mad Experiments: Escape Room

Played with my girlfriend, we ended up arguing for an hour about a single puzzle but then high-fived when we solved it. That’s exactly what I want in a co-op escape room. Atmosphere is creepy but not horror, which is perfect.

clunky and unintuitive

Good escape room sim. Not as polished as Escape Simulator, but it has its own vibe. More atmospheric, more tension. Worth checking out if you like the genre.

Works great solo too, with optional hints and a story hook. I played alone and found the puzzles logical, liked that hints weren’t forced, and the Professor Cheshire thread made me curious about the sequels.

I played this solo; which might make me too critical, as it is clearly intended for multiplayer. Still, I can't honestly recommend based on my experience with the game. There are three challenge rooms, with little replay value, and each one is intended to be finished in under an hour. The puzzles are competent but nothing special. There's a very vague story but it's not central to the experience. I didn't hate it or find it offensive, but I did find it forgettable.

One of the better multiplayer escape-room games on Steam, but don’t expect tons of content. The presentation is strong and the group experience is the main draw.
