I love Escape Games but this one is not in my list of favorites. First, it is really dark (very little light). You have a lantern and fuel but lantern burns bright for a brief period of time and then you are stumbling around in the dark waiting to refuel when lantern is empty. I could not figure out what solving a puzzle did or what pushing a button did (loud sounds but no visible change that I could find in the semi-dark). There are also items to interact with that have no explanation or impact when the 'E' key is pressed. Started a new game to try again from a 'clean' perspective and found that the first puzzle had not reset (solution from prior game still displayed). I am not sure if unknown results were turned 'on' or 'off' - unable to confirm because I never did figure out what the puzzle accomplished. Reinstalled game and the old puzzle solution is still showing. After an hour in the first Hallway, I'm not willing to invest more time trying to get this debugged or figured out.

User Reviews
The game features overly simplistic puzzles, has poor language localization, has annoying music that cannot be disabled without also disabling all game sounds, and utilizes some kind of non-standard screen resizing method that so badly misconfigured my desktop resolution that I had to do a complete reinstall of all graphics drivers. Oof. There are plenty of decent escape room style puzzle games out now; give this one a miss. UPDATE: 5 hours of troubleshooting and driver reinstalls later I have STILL not been able to undo the mess this thing made of my graphics settings, AND it's being flagged by my AV software as a virus threat.
Game is buged af!
First and foremost I have played this game after all the bugs and issues were resolved. That said, I highly suggest, no, recommend that everyone who post negative reviews when this game came out to revisit playing. The puzzles were challenging and a hint of horror made game play interesting. There was one puzzle in the first room that was tricky, confusing but that is just me. Certainly not a reason to purchase. Kudos to developers for being so attentive in correcting bugs. I love playing this genre of games and this one definitely did not disappoint.
There were some elements that seemed off, some glitches as well. Puzzles ranged from very easy to super hard. The storyline was nice. The last room seemed far too easy. However, maybe that was to give a bit of relief. I enjoyed it.
2nd time I've tried to get through this game. Why isn't there a walk through somewhere?
This was a lot of fun until room 5. None of the puzzles were interactive. I see another reviewer commented similarly nearly a year ago. I suppose this was never addressed/fixed.
I honestly wish there were more clues to at least help you identify what type of puzzle you are doing, but figuring it out on your own is also very rewarding considering you start with little to no direction lol. This game is definitely a brain teaser.
Don't waste your money. This game runs into a wall in the third(?) puzzle. I normally love these types of games but I rage quit after about two hours of exploring every inch of every room looking for a clue to help move forward. There are no tips or hints available in game and there is no help available online. Save your money, buy something better.
Balance of hard and simple puzzles, protected against getting bored.
