The unique co-op experience that made How 2 Escape a success is back with improved gameplay and new challenging puzzles!
The latest edition in the How 2 Escape series, How 2 Escape: Lost Submarine has you and a partner work together to locate a missing submarine and prevent the start of a global war.
SAVE THE WORLD
An important allied military base has been captured by enemy forces, prompting the government to preemptively order the launch of a torpedo to reclaim it - despite the potential for countless allied deaths.
However, after further internal discussions and negotiations with the enemy, the government cancelled the strike that could spark a potential global war. The only problem is "The Triumphant," the submarine carrying the torpedo, is out of communication range and no one can confirm if the cancellation orders have reached the submarine.
To prevent war, the government has tasked its two best experts, Haurée and Leroy, two strategic masterminds of the submarine fleet, to locate “The Triumphant” before time runs out and spread the latest information. These experts will face a reality they did not expect. Underwater, the startling torpedo decision broke out, igniting a moral dilemma among the sailors.

Played it with a friend, had tons of fun. We also played the first part of the series about half a year ago and loved the new setting.
We sadly noticed that the riddles seemed way more streamlined than in the first game. In the first part of the series we enjoyed getting dumped the puzzle pieces of three or more riddles onto us just to slowly sort it out.
This game clearly sorts the parts of all riddles apart and even tells you (in most parts) which and how many puzzles need to be solved and whats needed to do that. For most people this will be a good quality of life aspect, but we enjoyed the rough edges.
Anyway, we still had a lot of fun.
PS: next part in a plane trust me

Very nice! A little shorter than the first one, and the riddles are a little easier but that was still a lot of fun! The graphics are amazing also. Would recommend.

Overall this is a nice little adventure. It took us about 3.5 hours to beat it, but we cheated, my partner had access to my screen, without visual access it might take about 30-60 minutes more, due to the need to actually communicate info verbally (which I actually recommend). Most of the puzzles are fine, but the "geolocation" one is just weird, there is no real world logic applicable to it and the description just sucked (still we only needed the first hint to get it, buuuut).
Pick it up for a fun weekend if you are into puzzles
