About Escape the Bunker

Escape the Bunker is a room escape game, similar to the popular real-life escape games. It features half a dozen different interconnected rooms, with various puzzles to solve and a small bit of suspense towards the end.

There are no “jump scares”, and nobody is trying to kill you. It’s a problem-solving game, in which you use your reasoning skills to find ways of opening doors, unlocking locks and using a variety of items to move forwards through the game and eventually Escape the Bunker.

Play times vary from 40 minutes to just over an hour, depending on how familiar you are with this genre of game.

Features:
  • full room scale experience
  • push-to-walk movement (no teleporting)
  • half a dozen rooms
  • dozens of items
  • puzzles all make logical sense
  • professional voice acting (used sparingly)

There are a lot of good escape rooms and a lot of bad ones, and I've played a lot of both, but I've never played one I couldn't finish, until now. I can forgive the game's generally poor visual quality if the puzzles are good, but this game has one glaring problem. Escape the Bunker has a novel concept of having multiple rooms separated vertically by elevators, but the elevators are extremely glitchy. Items you find on the top floor are needed in lower floors, but leaving items on the floor of the elevators is a recipe for disaster because of how often they just end up spazzing out and clipping through the floor, but sometimes your flashlight glues itself to your hand, forcing you to carry items back and forth one at a time. I don't know how this game ends, because the only ending I've ever gotten is the one where you accidentally send an elevator back up while you're not standing on it, effectively breaking the game, and then "escaping" through the hole in the universe that is cleverly unveiled under the elevator by exiting the game. It pains me to give a VR escape room a negative review, but this one needs a lot of work. If they fixed the item issue by maybe adding in a item cont…

I gave this game multiple tries, multiple chances, and it is honestly the worst VR title I have tried yet. Basically the janky physics will make it impossible to complete Escape the Bunker. Items will randomally drop out of your hands. Bumping anything with an item in your hand will make it bounce out of your hand. Items will randomally ignore collisions, falling through tables, or even the floor. Using one of the many elevators in the game will make you drop objects or cause other items you arent touching to move or lose collision. I literally walked through the first generator door holding the axe, had it spaz out of my hand, rocket around the room and cause a chain reaction of physics objects to all gain incredible velocity, wrecking the first room instantly. The chaos even caused items to fly up into the first room from rooms below. This was less than five minutes into my fifth attempt to play. After multiple attempts I haven't been able to make it past the fifth room because the third elevator forces me to lose at least one item no matter how I try to prevent it from doing so. This third elevator literally shakes the entire map. You can literally get stuck because your ess…

Thumbs up only because there's no neutral option. TL;DR: Good puzzles, tons of glitches. Don't play if you can't deal with borked mechanics. The puzzle and room design is well done with cleverly hidden clues. I was screaming at the combination padlock at first, but after reading the manual for it a third time, it worked rather well and to be honest, the real ones can be as finicky as this virtual one. Some of the items have no purpose, but I was grinning from ear to ear when I found out what the axe was for. But the actual game implementation and in-game physics? Broken as ****! I had to restart the game 5 times because of this and there's no save game or even a menu, so I had to restart from the beginning. The only reason I even finished is because once you know how all the puzzles work it doesn't take more than 5 minutes to play through the game, so I didn't really loose that much time, but seriously. I tried to look into the ventilation shaft in the first room, it's dark, but wait, I have a flashlight. Guess what got lost because of an invisible wall. No more flashlight - restart. Next I dropped a little item, because I let go of the trigger, it went through the floor or s…
