While visiting a well renowned doctor, you notice something is amiss at his office. Before you realize what's going on, he drugs you and you fall asleep. When you wake up, you are sitting on a chair in the back room, locked and unable to get out of the building. You can tell that the doctor is running some kind of experiment on animals and people and you are his next subject! Can you figure out what's going on and escape before it's too late?

Multiplayer


Gather up to 6 people and play as one team that tries to solve the puzzles or try the "Versus" mode, where each player is locked alone and tries to escape the room before the others do!

very short escape room experience that you can finish in as little as ten minutes

Very dark lightning. Clunky controls and interaction with objects. A lot of clutter on shelfs, desks and later the floor. There is no good way to sort items. Some puzzles are a bit too obscure. Bugs in which crucial objects fall through tables and cannot be retrieved anymore. A bit too short.

Unique. Not scary. There is no clear direction with the puzzles. It's definitely detail-oriented, you need to pay attention to the small things. The lighting in the game sucks so it really is hard to see in some of the rooms, I know that's the point in one of them but the one with the bodies was to dim. I am lucky I had a partner who could see because on my PC I couldn't see anything. This isn't something I would play alone as the puzzles are pretty difficult and the unique perspectives of team mates really helps push you through. Also some of the things got bugged, like the mirror, so only my gf could see the code that popped up. Over all though it was a decent game. It's not something a newbie to puzzle rooms should play.

Sadly the game is very buggy. Items often glitch through the floor and some items that are required for puzzles do not spawn at all. We were missing a book in the last room of our playthrough that never spawned.

could be better, i wasnt impressed by this one as much as i hoped to be honest

Choice of game controls using grip button for teleport and trigger to pick up items feels weird. This combined with teleport glitches - able to teleport into walls and through doors made this pretty much unplayable in VR mode.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
