    Escape Simulator is a simple yet fun escape room type game. The puzzles themselves are engaging and aren't too obtuse most of the time. Has a fun art style and objects are easy to move and manipulate. Objects in your inventory often bog you down trying to switch between important items and a lot of the useless junk you pick up. The hint system is nice to have, but has some issues whenEscape Simulator is a simple yet fun escape room type game. The puzzles themselves are engaging and aren't too obtuse most of the time. Has a fun art style and objects are easy to move and manipulate. Objects in your inventory often bog you down trying to switch between important items and a lot of the useless junk you pick up. The hint system is nice to have, but has some issues when you've solved most of the puzzle and you just need the last piece of information, the game will print out each step individually and make you wait in-between getting each hint. The timer is a nice option where you aren't forced into a losing situation if you take your time, but it really feels like a nice accomplishment when you get under the time as the times aren't super easy to beat. The highlight of this game is coop which I have not tried but would be excited to give a shot. While not a lot of content when I first played it, I'm excited to see more coming to make the game even more full. Expand

    Escape Simulator is fun. It's just challenging enough to make the puzzles satisfying, without being so obtuse you're certain the creators are just trying to show off their wasted university degrees. With free DLC and player created options, there's a ton of replay value. It feels good to poke at multiple puzzles at once, just for one to unlock the key to one of the others and so on. I lost hours on this game, bingeing it for 7 hours straight in one session! It's fun to pick up, hard to put down.

    There’s a co-op mode, even, so you can be trapped in these escape rooms with a chum, which sounds absolutely fantastic. But on my own, Escape Simulator offers a far more tangible sense of the feeling of playing a real-world escape room, one spaceship aside, keeping things within the realms of possibility. Ooh I can’t wait for that DLC.

    Aside from some minor technical hitches, though, Escape Simulator is absolutely worth your time. If you and your mates have been craving some escape room action throughout the pandemic, then Escape Simulator is a sure-fire alternative that won’t leave you disappointed.
