Fun riddles but misleading ad. I downloaded it based on an advertisement I saw, which showcased a classic point and click escape room game, gathering clues and items etc. Insres, this was a simple question and answer riddle game where you open each door by typing in the answer. I can appreciate the riddles but it wasn't the reason why I installed the game.

Misleading ads. I think this is the first and most important point to be mentioned about this game. Escape Room is a word puzzle game where you get clues from words on paper or subliminal visual hints. There is no inventory system, no character and no crafty puzzles of sorts. For a simple word puzzle game it does its job pretty well. However, I'm not happy about being misled.

This game is not as bad as how others on here described. I actually enjoyed the puzzles. I rely more on hints during the early levels but then it was smooth sailing once I grasp the general concept. I like how the game allows the option to progress through the levels if you don't mind watching ads, but also provide another option to remove the ads for a mere $2 (hey game developers got to eat too!)

Good idea in principle and fun to start off with, but there are only about 20 to maximally 25 different puzzles, which keep repeating randomly, so after you've solved those it's becomes essentially an additional serving app and very tedious. Some of the puzzles are really good, some are really easy once you've got the idea behind it, but some don't make any sense at all. I think three stars is an appropriate score as I'll be removing it after just a few days as it's just become too repetitive.

The concept is reasonably fun, although every 'room' looks the same. But there are only a few 'puzzles' and these get repeated ad nauseum with slightly different variables. Furthermore some of the puzzles, hints & answers are IMO strange and illogical. Just adding an explanation at the end of every puzzle as to how you were supposed to get to the answer would make the game much better IMO. Overall I'd say it's equal parts frustrating and fun.

This game is super addictive and fun! I could not put this down ever since i downloaded it. Each level has clues and codes which you have to find. Sometimes these clues are obvious sometimes you really need to think outside the box. The answers are not always straight forward, so asking friends for help can be helpful. More levels in the future would be amazing. Great for puzzle/word lovers.

This app is fun in some ways and moderately addictive but some of the puzzles don't make a lot of sense - you need to rely on guesses or cheats. Some require you to get clues from a picture that is simply too small on a phone screen to make out the necessary details. The worst problem though is the ads - they come after every second level and every time you need "money" to buy hints. You spend literally as much time watching ads as you do playing the game.

Not an escape room, just individual riddles. Could be better with just a little attention to detail. Some of the riddles are unnecessarily hard because the drawings aren't specific enough to the answer. The hints are completely useless. Had to Google the answer to a couple puzzles to move on and they still made no sense.

It was fun for the first 100 levels. The farther you get in the game, you can see the developers didn't spend as much time. One answer to a puzzle was supposed to be "increase" but they spelled it wrong so it was almost impossible to get right. They had it spelled "incrase". The farther you get in the game, the more you can tell the developers don't speak English as their first language. The puzzle I am on now asks "who will be Die?" It gets frustrating as time goes on. Soon to be a deleted app.

I really enjoy the game. However, the levels are painfully easy. The ads say that you can't get past level four? I am currently on level twenty nine and haven't had a problem whatsoever. I have stopped playing to right this review, and my only problem is the difficulty level in the game. I would appreciate if the levels were more challenging. Coins are very much available, but there is no point in buying hints when the game is so easy.

The puzzles are mostly easily solved riddles. When I've had difficulty solving one, it's usually because the graphics are so poor, I can't tell what the picture is supposed to be, or I was making the solution too complicated. Quite a few misspelled words and grammatical errors.

I would absolutely love this game if I didn't constantly get a pop up asking me if I want a hint or not. There is no way to disable it so it forever interferes with game play. If I wanted a hint I'd click one of the options for it in the lower left corner and even go so far as to make a purchase. However the fact that I keep getting the pop up rules out any enjoyable future game play with this one.

this game is frustratingly inconsistent. First off this is a riddle game not an escape room game. Second some puzzles are as easy as a riddle you remember from kindergarten then the next makes no sense and is so vague to purposely make you buy clues. Even then you are often better off just looking at keypad and guessing words. Some puzzles are pictures on the wall that you have to find the word in, problem is on smaller phones that is not possible to make them out. save your time and just avoid.

This app would be much better if the clues made sense. There are far too many clues that make no sense or are too much of a stretch to lead you to the correct answer. Im over 140 levels in and I've found at least 15 levels where I NEEDED the hints and letter clues to complete the puzzle. With the amount of adverts and lack of planning on the puzzles, the is just another cash grab app!

A lot if fun. Hints get harder, but the game always explains why the answer is the correct answer. If you spend your coins carefully you will go far. If you are our of coins and still unable to solve the puzzle, eventually the game will give you the answer or another clue in your notifications. However; it could be weeks before you get the help.

It isn't an escape room game. It's a word/picture puzzle game. It was ok. Some of the clues were far too simplistic, and others had major grammar issues or otherwise just did NOT make sense. Still, there were basically unlimited hints as long as you didn't mind watching lots of ads. And they welcomed feedback on the puzzles, so if they were bad puzzles you could explain why. It wasn't the greatest game ever, but it was a nice time killer when I had to wait for things.

It starts easy so that you can get the hang of what you need to do. Thats good. It gets a little harder to challenge you. Great. Then the clues start to make no sense at all. At this point you have to use the hints and possibly watch ads to get enough currency to solve the password. Even then you'll wonder how you were supposed to figure out the puzzle with the clues and hints given.

This game would be great if it made more sense. I think it is just a vehicle for watching ads and nothing more. Half of the answers don't make much sense even with clues. There are spelling errors frequently. You have to be a mins reader to get some of these. I find myself having to look up a walkthrough on most of them because they are so obscure.

Fun game. The pictures were difficult for me to figure out. It was only after I used hints that I discovered what it was supposed to be depicting. I played until level 300 and game abruptly ended with a "coming soon" notice. Just when I was starting to understand the drawings better! It's been a couple of months, which I've used to replay the last game & stockpile coins to use whenever more games are created. If that doesn't happen soon, I'm not sure how much longer I can wait until uninstalli

I just started playing this game and it has held my interest so far! I wanted to play some more and continue to different levels. What does get a little Annoying is the background music needs to improve. It's pretty lame and gets very mundane, and repetitive. It would be nice if the music could change at some point
