Jan 29, 2018The Room series offers players tactile, faux-Victorian puzzles that involve opening up wood and brass contraptions to reveal crank handles, sculptures with star-shaped bases, and devices that happen to be just the right angle to connect two recently-discovered apertures. Unlike The Room 2, which came over all Myst and had you spending a significant chunk of your time wandering back and forth, this goes back to its roots with a much more compact experience, revolving around the rooms of a single doll’s house. It does nothing to innovate and is relatively short-lived, but it’s enormously engaging while it lasts.

Jan 28, 2018Even now, six years since The Room games first debuted on the iPhone, there’s still nothing quite like its distinct blend of puzzles and chills. There’s a feeling you get when you hear the telltale “click!” of a safe unlocking that no other game has replicated. Old Sins continues to build off of this concept, with delightfully strange and complex new mysteries to uncover. The house may be small, but it’s bigger than it looks.

Apr 13, 2018While I have not finished this game, as the reviewers on the left have said it so far is equal to if not better than the previous rooms.
