The value story

Across all 58 discounts in the 7 years tracked, the median cut is 50 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $7.49 at 50 percent off still sits 151 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.

It is pricier than 75 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 74 percent. Among the games that feel like it, We Were Here Too ($9.99, scores 49) beats it on value, while it beats Escape: Malice ($7.99, scores 0).

What players say

It was faster to guess puzzle solutions than solve them. Not very well designed.

My friends and I have done a lot of escape rooms in our time and this one was, quite frankly, absolutely atrocious. We came across a pretty major bug in the first room where you press a button to play as a rat in a maze, and the rat was just clipped into the ceiling so no one could move but could hear running sounds, so we had to look up the solution lol Pressing on, you'll find three escape rooms with only a few...

It's a fun escape room game (Played it with a friend). There were a few bugs, but they were patched out pretty fast by the developer.
