Egression

Egression is a virtual reality puzzle title developed and published by Hyperquad Studio that takes inspiration from real-life escape rooms and translates that experience into an interactive digital space. Instead of leaning on action sequences, horror elements, or an elaborate storyline, the game places its entire focus on challenging the player's problem-solving skills. Set within the headquarters of Egression, Inc., players are invited to participate in a series of carefully designed escape room scenarios where observation and experimentation are the keys to success. Its premise may sound modest at first glance, but the game's confidence in its core concept is ultimately what makes it memorable. The strongest aspect of Egression is its dedication to immersion. Hyperquad Studio clearly designed the experience with VR in mind from the beginning, allowing players to physically interact with objects, inspect clues from different angles, and engage with the environment naturally. Every room feels like a tangible space rather than a traditional video game level. Picking up items, moving around to inspect hidden details, and piecing together information create an experience that captur…

I wanted to play this but I'd ran into a really nasty glitch that made it so certain screens didn't work properly (the phone in the tutorial being an example) and although the tutorial can be brute forced other puzzles had been made impossible. I was using PSVR2, I'm not sure if that's the reason, as far as I know I'm the only person who's experienced this glitch as I was unable to find anything about it on the forums.

Interesting approach to escape room games. you have 2 escape rooms (an easy and a hard one) but then you have the lobby itself who also contains META puzzles that can be solved to progress more into the game. there are no hints and as a VR game there isn't much online either to help you, luckily the devs left some small hints in the discussion forums if you feel stuck on some of the Meta puzzles, while the room ones are completely doable on their own (at least for me) the only negative aspect is the telekinesis system that's not as good as other games who came out around that time, and the game hasn't been updated in 2+ years so I doubt it will be fixed but it wasn't a big deal, I'd just pick them up off the floor or try 2-3 times to aim at them slowly. for 4$ on sale it was a great experience!

Well designed puzzles and worth checking out. Only two main escape rooms, plus a meta puzzle. Hopefully more rooms will be coming some day.

Worst game ever. No saves, no help, very stupid game!!!

I haven't completed all the puzzles yet, but I really like the concept. Sadly there are only 2 escape rooms (plus all the puzzles in the starting area). I can't wait to solve them all and hopefully see new rooms
