An escape game is usually a point and click online game,
where you find yourself trapped somewhere. Using the mouse as your main
controller you interact with the elements around you in the room, gather data
and tools to help you solve the puzzles and riddles. With each one of those you
come closer and closer, finding more and more clues that will lead you,
eventually, to the key to escape that room. Sometimes you have a specific time
to finish the game in. This makes it even more competing. Each game has its own
story line. One time you might find yourself locked in a room, or a boat, or
even a spaceship. Other time you mind be lost in the woods or kidnapped by a
mad scientists and jailed in a cell. Some games have more than one episode,
where the story continues in the next game.
The riddles and puzzle vary from game to game. Some are very
easy and clear, and some might need a search in wikipedia or a calculator! The escape
games in general are challenging. They make you use your mind and think out
of the box and be creative about they way you will escape.
One of the best escape
games sites is www.EscapeThis.Net. It is up
to date with all the escape games. Recently
the site was upgraded with a new design that makes it very clear and friendly
to surf. It is fast, responsive and enjoyable! If the comments couldn’t help
you out, there is a walkthrough button that will guide you through to solve the
game, showing you a video with the hints you need. In other words cheat your
way out!
Escape This is also
thinking about developing their own escape games in the future. They might be
hiring game designers and software engineers to build up their own stories and
puzzles. We are really excited to see what kind of games those will be and
where will they take us and how challenging or maybe funny they would be.
Wishing them all the best!
