Pyramids and Aliens: Escape Room

I *really* wanted to like this one as I loved all the previous mc2games Escape Room games that I've played, despite their jankiness. But they made the mistake of adding reaction/timed "puzzles" when the control system doesn't really fit it. Even switching from controller to keyboard for those sections, it was still needlessly frustrating and really left a sour taste... especially as one of them is right at the end. On that note, I really hope mc2 learns how to implement proper controller and kbm hot swapping, as well as generally better controller support. They've clearly thought about accessibility in some areas (using symbols as well as colour to help those with colourblindness) but they always seem to lack when it comes to controller implementation. Also, for some reason, I kept getting caught on geometry (doors and beams). The rest of the puzzles (the actual puzzles) were pretty decent and required some thought, although I do think they over-relied on very complex glyphs and symbols, which made making notes a bit of a pain. They also did quite a few that required backtracking between rooms and, even sprinting, that dragged them out more than necessary. All in all, this is my least favourite in the mc2games Escape Room series. 6/10 - only buy it if it's on sale.

Reaction based "puzzles"

cant adjust basic settings like FOV so it makes me a bit motion sick to move around.

Pretty good. Definitely a game worth playing although was totally lost at times. Would never have finished or progressed in the game without the guide occasionally.

Loved this puzzle game. Very creative: and a few of the puzzles really challenged me but I was able to complete the entire game without any cheats or help - though it did take quite some time to figure out the solutions to a few of them. Highly recommended!

It's a shame because this was my favourite mc2 game for the first half of it (very good puzzles, setting and atmosphere), but as soon as i entered the alien temple, it seemed like all the puzzles in it were not interactable. At the beginning i thought that this was intended, with the professor preceding you and solving every puzzle before you, but judging from the achievements and the dev guide, it seems i got a bug that kicked me out from half of the content in the game and let me in the ending room (you can't even reload because the game autosaves on your playthrough slot in the final room with the door closing behind you). As it is now, I cannot recommend it for this reason. Shame, it was really fun while it lasted :(

Loved this game - could be a little better linking between puzzles as a a couple are spread across different rooms so it was difficult (for me) to work out what went where. Gotta say I nearly fell off my chair when I saw the stargate... been wanting a puzzle type stargate game for a while and just wish someone would take the idea of this game and make it bigger. Most suggestions for a Stargate type game seem to just be focused on shoot em ups.... this is all about the Daniel Jackson element - which is great.

Un casse-tête vraiment bien pensé, j'ai adoré le faire ! Il est même mieux que Mystic Academy (qui a été fait par les mêmes devs) A prendre en promo par contre vu qu'il se finit assez rapidement !
