About Area 86
Welcome to Area 86, a physics-based escape room puzzle game.
The action takes place in a secret space station where an AI has got corrupted, and you need to figure out how to stop it!
Play as a robot that can move at decent speeds and jump around doing parkour tricks. Use the laws of physics to interact with the environment by pushing, activating, destroying and picking items up. Find secret items, look for clues, and escape entered rooms.
But there is more! The space station AI has trapped other robots!
Save them, and together you will be more powerful.
Each level has multiple ways to complete it, and it's up to your imagination on how to escape. If you need a hint of what to do next, you have a taskbar that shows actual level available tasks and puzzles.
Have fun escaping and defeating the corrupted AI system!

- Smooth physics-based gameplay
- Destructible environment
- Robot parkour
- Pleasant puzzles and tasks
- Secret places and hidden objects
Area 86 is inspired by amazing games like:

The game features lazy low-polygon "retro" assets, making this look like a barely functional 3D game from the 1990s.

Simple game. Be the robot solve puzzles, free other robots and party at the end. Dont know why i bought it originally, turned out to not be my cup of tea
A fun little physics puzzler that I enjoyed, and wish had more support/content. At least a community level editor would be amazing.
fun
