Tested on Humans: Escape Room

Hola chicos, hace 1 año le doy vueltas al juego, lo quería y a la vez no lo quería ni tocar, ya que había testeado la primera escena y me había dejado sensaciones duras, pero no sabía el por qué. Por lo que mantuve el juego en un limbo durante más de un año: lo ponía y sacaba de listas, de favoritos, y hasta lo instalaba y luego desinstalaba. Finalmente hoy, en noviembre del 25 decidí jugarlo. Y diré una cosa, no me importan las otras entregas, ésta será mi favorita por siempre, ya que lo han dedicado a su madre, una persona con psicosis paranoide, al igual que yo y muchos pocos. Me gusta que se visualice esta dificultad de la mente, por más que el juego sea de nicho al igual que lo es la enfermedad, ya que somos muy pocos y se vive muy difícil. Sin embargo es un acto muy loable que el juego lo represente, porque no es solo una dedicación a una madre, sino una representación de lo que muchos esquizofrénicos vivimos. Tengo mucho que decir, pero... en fin, gracias totales, y una cosa dedicada a su madre: "si la vida a morir señala, la muerte a vivir convida". El mensaje es ser valiente y tratar de tener momentos de felicidad. Gracias.

these puzzles were not tested on humans. plenty of puzzles, even with the developer's main guide, make absolutely 0 sense. no sense of discovery or intrigue, just blind guessing and backwards logic.

I have very mixed feelings about this game. I should point out that, unlike some other negative reviews which say the puzzles make no sense, that’s not my experience. The puzzles do make sense, even if they’re sometimes rather convoluted... The puzzles are really poorly balanced. Some are so disconcertingly simple that you find yourself thinking "Is that it?", and on several occasions I wasted time looking for more elaborate solutions because the answer couldn’t possibly be that simple… well, actually it was (for example, finding a sequence of four folders of different colours on a shelf). And if I did look for more complicated solutions, it’s because other puzzles are significantly more difficult. Where I really struggled was with the consistency between the clues and their corresponding puzzles. One clue in particular corresponded to a puzzle I’d spent ages on, only to realise it was linked to another puzzle. And conversely, a clue in the next room (which was inaccessible) corresponded to the puzzle I was currently working on. But none of this justifies a negative review, as I admit that it was me who lacked perspective (even if the game didn’t go out of its way to be any clearer...). The first major frustration came when I finished the first area and found the way back blocked. That’s when I realised I’d skipped a puzzle without any consequences, one that I’d thought would be needed later on. Then it happens to me a second time at the end. I reach the final door but I still have three puzzles left to complete. Given the way the game is going, I reckon that if I leave now, I’ll get the bad ending. So I do the three remaining puzzles, which actually just end up giving me an extra clue for the "final" triangle puzzle on the desk, for which I’d already got a clue... And this once again highlights how easy many of the puzzles are (including the last one). And of course there were no other endings, there was only one resolution for the story. Instead of the satisfaction of completion, I was left with nothing but terrible frustration. So there you have it, that was my experience, but if you’re less easily frustrated than me and don’t shout “that makes no sense” when it actually does (like some do…), you might enjoy this game. But I’d still find it a bit hard to recommend it at its standard price, which is too high for such simple puzzles.

This game is good so much fun not too hard and i can do by myself lol

Boring.

I'd recommend this to someone like me, someone who's done all the big Escape Room games and is looking to kill some time. Not recommended for first time or new Escape Room players. I got it on sale for $3 and it was a good few hours. The puzzles don't always make sense, and I had to brute force a few where I couldn't figure it out even with the hint, even using the hint, some of the puzzles are a pretty big stretch to figure out, and one of them even knowing the solution and the hint, I still don't know how the puzzle works so be warned it's not exactly GOTY but a good time killer.

jogo excessivamente complexo, muitos numeros a serem computados, dificilmente concluido sem ajuda e final completamente insano... acho que o criador esteve ele mesmo nessa situação e fez o jogo para vingar-se..kkk boa sorte aos que tentarem, é um teste de resistencia e perseverança

I work in the health field and while I don't, personally, know what this experience is like, the game helped provide prospective. Thank you, to the developers for their willingness to share their struggle.
