Spotlight X: Room Escape

Some Weirdo

Dissapointed. I thought the people giving this low stars for not making sense were just bad at the puzzles. But the the puzzles are outragious. In the nighttime level of chapter one we get a ton of shapes and numbers. None of the shapes end up used and the code that I was given (had to watch 6 ads for the hint) didnt even line up with the numbers provided. Someone said the game tries so hard to make the levels difficult that it becomes unlogical and impossible. They were right.

Really enjoyed this game. Although I do admit I had to get help a couple times it's super easy to find a walkthrough/game help. Very intriguing storyline that doesn't focus more on words/story than it does actual game play, bravo for that!!controls worked well although there was a few times I was touching where I needed to but the game wasn't registering, I would just back away from the puzzle or area and then go back to it and it usually worked then. Can't wait for more chapters!!

Absolutely great escape room game. I enjoy passing the time by playing these games resulting in losing track of time altogether. First series of Spotlight chapters were a little better IMHO. I've played them all and can't wait for new chapters!!! Additional chapters say "coming" ??!!! I'll test beta to feed my addiction. Give me more! Also played escape room apps from Escape factory but not as good as Javelin Ltd.

Will give this game a 3, as of right now, but I can't play the game. The sounds load, but don't have picture. All I see is a black screen and it sounds like I can hit options, but I see nothing. Any plans on a fix for this? I use a Samsung Note 9. Edit: Apparently turning down my screen resolution fixed it.

Totally lame. First level starts with only one thing to do (seeing as how the only other things you can interact with are the TV and the drawers) which is open the frame with a code that is impossible to find without a hint. And on top of that, whenever I tried to get a free hint, it would just take me back to the room instead of giving me a hint. If I could give this game zero stars I would.

It seems like it'd be a good game, but I couldn't make much progress before being Interrupted by an ad that I couldn't close (there was no x) and the first "free" Hint was not free I had to watch an ad. If these issues were fixed then I think the game would be playable, until then no thanks.

Seems cool but also seems to play an ad after every puzzle solved? Or often? Which isn't in itself a problem since I understand free games have ads, but the issue is the way the ads are displayed - there's no X or "close" button for me to close them. I've tried shutting down the game and starting it back up and it often puts me back before I solved the puzzle and when I solve it again I'm back with an ad I can't X out of

I am so hooked on the Spotlight series of escape games! The price is fantastic, plenty of gameplay, and the puzzles are good. I would compare it to Glitch Games but without the long storyline or all the manuvering from one end of buildings to the other. Tons of puzzles and some are very challenging. The puzzles are real puzzles - not "put random item A into weird location B then combine with hidden compartment C" - but actual logic based puzzles.

I wanted to give this game five stars very badly but for some reason I lost all my progress. I was to the second to last puzzle room when I was forced to set the game down and turn the phone off. When I popped the phone back on I was back to the first room being the only one unlocked. If any of the developers know what I can do to get back to the second to last puzzle without having to pay I would appreciate it. I emailed phone details and lost progress at church level.

the levels have about 5-10 ads in them if ur watching them for hints as well (about 3 minutes worth of ads are needed to get a hint). other than that the puzzles are often dead-ends, there are leftover items in ur inventory at the end of the level, and often there are hints that mean nothing and aren't needed for completing the level. some puzzles don't even need to be completed. and in order to get stars u need to complete random tasks. there's hardly any story other than "escape"

This was a good game, one of my favorite escape games so far. I used hints a couple times (the annoying thing is it won't always play ads) but overall had fun. I do not understand how you got the safe code in "passage". I got everything that was needed and no matter how many times I try, I can't figure it out. Anyway, I will be waiting for more levels, hoping it will be soon.

I gave this 4 stars because the first few rooms were really good, they made sense, it was challenging but still kept you going. Absolutely loved it. However, these last recently added rooms felt lazily made, it's random and some of the clues are so far fetched, if you do figure it out it's almost annoying that that's what they thought would be a good idea to incorporate. Please make the next rounds as well as the first few.

The puzzles were not intuitive at all, and in a lot if cases I would not have been able to get beyond a level without reading a walkthrough. But what really drives this review down is the complete lack of being able to beat level 6. The Activation code on the key card? The Activate button know the computer would not work. I even read the full walkthrough to make sure I didn't miss anything, and still it wouldn't work. Uninstalled without finishing.

Decent game but it is locked every so often with ads that are not videos, are un-closeable, with no timer, no fast forward and no "X" in the corner, it just stays there. The frequency of ads is not an issue but when that paticular type of ad pops up, it makes the game unplayable. You have to close out the application and boot it again, then you are required to re-do whatever task you were working on before the Ad locks you out because it doesnt save what you were doing right before that.

DEFINITELY NOT AS GOOD AS THE FIRST. The original was very detailed compared to this one. You can even notice in the number locks. Not as much effort put into this one. The chapters are also too short and sweet. Solved all of these in a little over a day. Little easier too. Still a very good game. Puzzles were still unique. The three little easter eggs you have to find to get all three stars in each chapter was fun. I guess I'm just angry because I was expecting much more.

Could have been a great game. Stuck on first episode on the safe. When I put in the code I hear the opening sound, then an ad pops up. Concerning part is the ad doesn't have an "X" or close button to finish the game, therefore I can't make it back to the game to continue on. I believe the ad size dimensions are off so the full ad doesn't show up on screen.

This game has border ads and video ads that pop up as you make progress. So I pay $2 for ad removal. But then I still ended up watching ads bevause the game's hint system reqires ads, multiple ads, to be used. When the game pushed the price up from 2 ads to 3, I just quit. The game's puzzles are ok at best. I might have pushed through if I were having more fun with the rest of the game.
