ALUMNI - Escape Room Adventure

Okish escape room game.

ALUMNI, developed and published by M9 Games, is a first-person 3D escape room adventure that blends atmospheric exploration with layered puzzle-solving in a narrative framed around memory and dislocation. The story places you in the role of a scientist who accidentally exposes himself to an experimental time-altering serum, only to awaken within a distorted reconstruction of his former college campus. What begins as a scientific mishap unfolds into a journey through familiar yet unsettling environments, where the key to returning to the present lies in unraveling intricate environmental puzzles scattered throughout Ridgeway College.

**"Alumni"** is a decent puzzle game that delivers solid value at the right price point. It took me around 4 hours to complete, though part of that time was due to a frustrating puzzle where the correct code didn’t work as expected. Even the developer’s walkthrough featured a code that didn’t align with the puzzle’s solution, which was disappointing. The lack of hints might make this a tough choice for players who rely on in-game assistance. Thankfully, the discussion boards were helpful for one particularly tricky puzzle that wasn’t very intuitive. Overall, it’s a decent game for puzzle enthusiasts, but be prepared for a few hiccups along the way.

Very entertaining. Single player with multiple challenges at each level. Better bring your thinking cap.

it started off a good game - however there appears to be a bug in hallway 3 - can't pick up domino. have replayed the game and still same problem. very disappointing hope developers fix.

I bought this game as part of a bundle when there was an offer and I liked it much more than I thought I would after reading the ratings. + All information you need to solve a puzzle you find in the game + puzzles are logical and not to hard + several different puzzles to solve - some puzzles/hints were difficult to find, respectively the point you need to stand on to be able to click on them - there were a few glitches - I needed to google for a hint two times (for one puzzle I've just didn't look carefully enough but for the other I still consider the solutions as pretty dump) Altogether it was really much fun finding my way through this ramshackle college.
