Escape from Ghosts

Judging by its own merits, I thought this was a fun bondage simulator that was worth the price in terms of cost-to-hours-entertained ratio. However, I couldn't help comparing it with its predecessor, Escape: Forced Overtime. It has some improvements, notably in the graphics department, but overall I felt it was a downgrade and some of the potential improvements it makes aren't very well executed. For example, in this game being gagged is more than just a cosmetic difference, as when you are ungagged you can cry for help, which reveals the locations of spheres behind obstacles (but also alerts nearby ghosts to your presence). That's an improvement in theory. Trouble is, there just aren't that many obstacles that are worth using this mechanic on. It does become essential when you are blindfolded, but then the ghosts no longer react to your voice, so you end up just spamming it and it becomes little different to being able to see normally. I was also surprised to find that I really missed having to struggle to open doors. In this game you walk/hop/roll around the map freely and almost never encounter a serious obstacle. The only obstacles are the ghosts, and it turns out tha…

A lot of conflicting thoughts on this one. But, if I had to sum up the game based off of it's predecessor I would say its: More stuff, less sexy. A lateral step instead of a next step. The maps are larger. There are more objectives. (the gravity orb is actually pretty fun) There are more options for changing hairstyle. And, he added hanging. But, for all the new things, there are either new demerits or things missing entirely. The maps are larger, but this often tends to highlight how much worse the hopping and standing mechanics are than the ones in Forced Overtime. In FO standing while your legs were bound was a challenge, here: it's a chore. The balance and tiredness mechanic while hopping is gone, and replaced by a simple bar and the SLOWEST HOP IMAGINABLE. If your legs are bound, you are always better off rolling wherever you need to go (or more than likely flopping around like a fish) than trying to stand and hop about. Doors (as a mechanic) are gone entirely. So, all the challenges that involved those (having to open them with your back turned or opening them with your feet when bound) are gone; which could have added some interesting complexity to running and hidi…

I wish there more content later. i think this gameplay is short for me. But i love it

This games does one thing and one thing well, bondage. If you're a fan of it and like the process/struggle and frustration that may come from trying to escape then I'd strongly recommend giving this a go. The custom challenge mode you get after unlocking the game lets you really make your life difficult in the best way.

Decent gameplay, fun bondage situations. Very good for the indie project.

This game is amazing — a masterpiece! When you enter the game, you’re greeted by ghosts and they tie you up. There’s a blue ghost, a hug ghost, and a normal grayish one… I’m not sure exactly, I didn’t look too closely. After the blue ghost catches you, I think it disappears — it captures you, ties you up, and hangs you or something. I haven’t fully finished the level yet, so I haven’t reached the blindfold part, but I’ll finish it soon. Guys, I definitely recommend playing this game — it’s really good! It only costs €9.75. I don’t know what that is in your currency, but that’s the price. 10/10!
